I Hate It When People Don't Update Their Blog for Months....Oh Wait...

Yeah, that's me. Sorry about that. The worst part is that the last 3 months have been filled with so many great things to blog about! I've just been so darn lazy. And I mean LAZY, cuz how much energy does it really take to sit on my couch with a computer on my lap and my favorite show on in the background? Man, I suck!

Well, for a quick recap we spent Thanksgiving in Colorado with my family. I got to see my mom, my grandparents, my favorite Uncle, and my cousins Alissa and Angela (and their awesome families) whom I hadn't seen in twenty long years. It was a perfect holiday and we had a great time.
I couldn't pass up a chance to post a shot of my lovely Colorado mountains that I dearly miss.

Preston got through a tough semester alive and having done well. He was very ready for a break though, poor thing. We spent a nice quiet Christmas here just the two of us and then my mom came in to town for the weekend. It was actually kind of nice to not travel for a change.
This is our living room decorated for Christmas.

Yep, I got a brand new set of awesome golf clubs from my hubby. I am so excited to use them!

Our awesome dog Tank keeps us entertained and is really huge now. Two of Preston's sisters, Aspen and Lauren, have moved into our basement. Lauren brought a puppy with her so we kind of have 2 dogs now. Lauren's puppy is like the size of Tank's head but she is feisty and holds her own.
This is actually a couple months old. He is even bigger now.

This is cute little Yeager.

I cut my hair shorter than it has been in like twenty years. I liked it for a minute but now I'm tired of having to do it in order to look good and now it usually ends up in stupid boy pony tail most of the time. There's that laziness again, in case you were wondering.
This is what my haircut looked like when I actually used to do it.

The sad part about living in Provo is that for the most people it is a temporary stop on the way to somewhere else. It will be for us too, in April of 2011, which couldn't come too soon for me. But anyways, you make friends with people and then they graduate or get jobs out of state and they move away. I feel like most of the cool people we have become good friends with have all moved away in the last few months. It has been kind of a bummer, though we are really excited for all of them!

Last but not least, the BIGGEST news of all...drum roll please...is that we are expecting our first baby!!!! I am a little over 12 weeks along and our official due date is August 2nd. We find out what we are having sometime the beginning of March. I have a feeling it might be a girl but Preston is sure it's a boy. I guess we will see. Either way, we are so excited! Preston couldn't be more thrilled. He loves kids so much. I'm excited but as it becomes more real, excited sometimes gives way to terrified. I'm already fed up with not feeling well. I'm nautious 90% of the time and though I don't puke constantly, I feel like I spend most of my time and energy trying not to. And I have come to hate all food. I just want to like food again, is that so much to ask?!? Everytime I think I'm starting to feel better it comes back with a vengeance so I've quit getting my hopes up, but I also try to remind myeslf it could be so much worse. Then again, all these women keep feeling the need to tell me that they were NEVER sick when they were pregnant and I'm secretly like, why are you talking to me right now? And then there are the girls who are like, I didn't even have a bump until I was like 5 months. Yeah, so I'm twelve weeks and already showing and I've been rubber banding my pants for a month now...get off my back! Hahaha. Anyways,I'm hoping to be better soon so I can get back to normal. Well, as normal as one can be with a human being growing inside them!
This is the night we found out we were pregnant.

Anyways, that's what's going on with us. Sorry for the novels that always follow my extreme bouts of laziness! I will make at least a somewhat feeble attempt to not be so lazy in the future.
