And the fun begins!

During my first few weeks being pregnant it was relatively easy and nice. I was starving all the time and felt like normal, just a few cramps everyday. Once we told the family my mom could not stop asking me, "are you sure you don't feel sick?" Yes mom I feel great, I probably wouldn't even know I was pregnant. I didn't have to pee frequently, food was amazing I could eat all day, boobs weren't sore, nothing. Then I had my first prenatal visit and my mom even asked the doctor, "Is it normal for her to feel perfectly fine?" Doctor said yes, in fact it's pretty common for some women to be lucky like that. I just laughed at her for being so envious of my perfect pregnancy. Then that Monday the fun began or should I say the curse that my mom has been hoping for (just kidding mom, I love you). Morning sickness has hit, I have to wake up at 3 every morning to pee. Food is my enemy and smells awful, especially when my husband bought some KFC. I am exhausted and can hardly watch a movie. All in all I am officially a definite pregnant woman.

Some Long Anticipated News!

This Easter was a lot of fun I was able to have all my family present (minus one sister) and Sam's family together. The Chapman family sang in Sacrament and then had a nice big dinner afterwards. Then all the nieces and nephews went a did an easter egg hunt.



And then my niece finds this "special" egg that everyone has to gather around to see what's inside

And this is what it said...


YEP Sam and I are finally...





I took 6 tests because I didn't believe it. We actually found out on March 26 and told the whole family on Easter with the "special" egg. We were dying to tell them, we kept it a secret for 2 1/2 weeks, killer. We were able to get the whole surprise on film so I'll try and post that. I had my first prenatal visit yesterday and will get the first ultrasound in a week. We are very excited and have tried for a long time. I actually started going to the doctors to get tests done to find out if there was anything wrong and then BAM we get pregnant so the doctors probably think I'm wierd for getting all these tests done when there really wasn't anything wrong. I know that this is a major blessing to have and will enjoy every minute. I already have a pooch but the doctor says it's normal. Here are some side view pics
We thought I was a little over 4 weeks here


A little over 6 weeks

7 weeks

The baby is suppose to be the size of a blueberry

Conference weekend!

My conference weekend wasn't planned out very well. I had a baby shower on Sat for my good friend from Hygiene school and I was the hostess (along with her mom and aunt). But they had set up the date like three months in advance so conference wasn't popping in my head right then. Anyway so I missed all of Saturday's session but I was able to watch Sunday. I only have a few pictures from Sunday but they are hillarious.
She definitely had a good turn out with lots of presents

Nichole's good friends (Me, Alli, Nichole, Sarah, Lisa, and Nicole)


The girls that put the shower together (Nichole's Aunt Joy, her mom, Nichole, and me)

And this is what happened during the Sunday session of Conference
