Just an update :]

so i have been really bad at keeping this blog up, but i promise there is a good reason why! lately our lives have been really busy! Between going to stock shows and getting kids ready for stock shows, baby appointments, and family trips, i just haven't had time to update this thing! but now it seems like our lives are starting to return to normal and we are not as busy anymore! which means we are still way busy but i actually have enough time to sit down and actually relax for five minutes without getting asked "in trouble" :] Anyways life has been really good! Our 4H kids are doing great at stock shows and our lambs are doing great as well throughout the state, which makes jarrett really excited, cause he has been working really hard to improve our herd, which included buying two more bucks from New Mexico! We originally only planned on buying one, but the competitive side in our family came out and we ended up with two bucks and four new ewes! what can i say we don't like to lose and be out bid:]

As far as the pregnancy goes, i am currently 30 weeks, will be 31 on Tuesday! I can't believe how fast this pregnancy has been going. I have been really lucky not to have any sickness or braxton hicks so far, which has been really nice! the only thing i have experience so far is being tired 24-7, but that also has to do with being anemic and having a hypo-thyroid! Anyways jarrett has been really amazing through this whole pregnancy. It is super cute to watch him get excited when he gets to hear her heartbeat at our appointments and when he get to see her at our ultrasounds! He is going to be an amazing daddy and i feel blessed to have him as my husband. He has been working really hard to get the nursery done before Lux gets here and it is looking great! it is practically done, all there is left to do is put a couple more pictures on the wall and to but the crib bedding together! it looks super cute and i can't wait until Lux can be here to see all the hard work her daddy has done for her! We finally got our maternity photo shoot scheduled for August 9, which we are looking forward to a lot. We decided we want to make sure we got the photo shoot because this is our first pregnancy and we want to capture every moment that we can! Hopefully i don't end up looking like a whale in all the pictures, cause that would be really depressing! i doubt i will cause still people are shocked when they here how far along i am cause my belly still is pretty small. I just tell everyone it is cause all my pregnancy weight is going to my butt and legs, which i think it really is but everyone seems to disagree! Anyways i don't really care how huge i get just as long as i am healthy so that our little angel will be healthy!

So that is just a brief update for now. I could go on and on about these last couple of weeks, but this post would probably take up five web pages, and everyone would probably get bored reading it. I will try to stay up on this a little bit more, but i can't make any promises that i will follow through, with the way our lives have been lately! anyways we love all, hope everyone is doing great!
