There really is something in there...

Tanner and I went to the doctor on Tuesday. We were a little anxious because we would finally be able to hear the little one's heartbeat. That is definitely an incredible experience. It hits me more and more everyday that there really is a tiny baby inside of me. Tanner's face was priceless when he heard the heartbeat. I think it was finally starting to hit him a little harder too. The nurse had a hard time keeping track of it. She would get the heartbeat on one side and then she would have to go find it on the opposite end. Tanner made me laugh so hard when he told the nurse, "I think it's doing cart wheels in there." :) I definitely let a sigh of relief when I heard that sound. I always wonder if everything is going ok and that helped me to be a little more reassured. It also helped me to stop complaining about all the crummy days and the sick days and remember that this is truly an amazing expierience and I should be enjoying every step if it. Now we are just anzious to find out if this "it" is a boy or a girl. I just want to go shopping for this little one already!

Forget Bieber...Tanner has Jimmer Fever

Tanner turned 24 on the 13th!! The whole week before I was praying that I would feel good that day just so I could make everything special for him and he wouldn't have to be doing stuff for me for a change. I didn't feel too bad, but of course getting up and doing a lot of stuff makes me tired very easy now a days. My mother is my hero. (Everyday of my life I gain more and more admiration for her) I asked her if she would help me make Tanner's cake...she made it for me. I ask her for the recipe for funeral potatoes (his favorite)...she made him a whole pan. I am convinced that my mother is super woman. I don't know what I would do without her. Tanner had a few of his close friends over after work and they grilled some steaks and then we had family over for some cake and ice cream. He tells me he had a great day :)


The poor guy had to wait till Sunday for his presents. Devonee helped me out a ton and was bringing them down with her this weekend. He had to be patient because I was helping with Jr. Miss all week and we couldn't get together to give them to him till Sunday afternoon. But I don't think he was too disappointed. Devonee and I collaborated and got him the Jimmer jersey and the BYU Basketball shorts...


As You can tell he was a little excited and had to put them on over his clothes :).But wait...there is more. We had one more present coming that wasn't going to arrive till monday. Tanner was begging me to know what it is, but I assured him that it was going to be the presents of all presents. I don't have a picture of it yet, but what it is you may ask?... an autographed basketball signed by JIMMER FREDETTE. I can't take the credit, Devonee found it. She is the queen at finding everyones dream gift. Tanner is beyond extatic. I don't think he can even find the words to describe how he feels.






Happy Birthday Tanner!
