say hello to peanut!

i know you have been DYING to see our little one, because we have been too! we went to the doc today, and if every doctor's appointment could be like this, the whole world would like going to the doctor. our doc is great- thanks for the recommendation katie and jenna! we saw the heartbeat and counted all the fingers- so crazy!

he didn't give us the picture where you can see the fingers, and this is a picture of a picture and kinda blurry.... but its there! and we arent totally sure of the due date. we had calculated oct. 26, then someone at the desk told me the 27th, then the nurse told me nov. 4 (i almost tried to tell her she was wrong...) then the doc measured the baby and said oct. 22. SO. we aren't really sure still, and it will come, sometime. i'm feeling a lot better than the last few weeks, and most days are pretty great! i've got a slight bump now, but its hard to tell because of the weight i lost.

in other news..... today is my younger brother marshall's 18th birthday! he is my little brother, but has been taller than me for a few years now, and we have confused for twins a number of times (i am now the shortest out of everyone). we were pretty close in high school, went through a lot together, and had some good times. he's my favorite little brother!

this is us at before a church prom. we love each other, i promise!

we had a pretty dang good weekend too. i got to see one of my roommates from freshman year kelli hansen that i haven't seen in over a year and it was soooo great to see her again! we caught up on everything and where everyone was from our ward, etc. good times!

we also got to see my cousin rachel and her husband rob, who live in southern utah. they came up for a track meet, and we got to see them for a few minutes before they left again. rachel and i have been pretty close, and has been one of my best friends since birth practically! totally love her!

and yesterday we got to attend the afternoon seesion of general conference. it was kinda funny because it was an amazing conference but i didnt get enough sleep the night before and managed to get a little snooze in and missed some of it. i was so embarassed! after that we made a quick drive back down to orem and hung out with cousins and relatives. good times!

also, a quick shout-out to good friends matt and margaret who got married on friday! they looked so happy and they had a fun reception! congrats to you two!

anyways.... a busy but fun-filled weekend! more updates to come, a few more fun things to read about. we are moving in two weeks (holy cow!) to go out to washington dc for the summer. we are finishing finals up early and driving through st. louis to see my parents for a couple days before i start work in the office joseph is working for this summer. we are living in college park MD, which happens to be the city my mom grew up in! pretty funny how those things work out!
