Anniversary

Last weekend Tyson and I celebrated our Anniversary.  

I have to say it was one of the best days.

I woke up to this beautiful blue box!

I have always wanted a blue box.....

Tyson caved and got me a necklace.  I love it and have worn it every day since.

We went to breakfast in Fig Garden.  We enjoyed french pastries and hot chocolate.

It was so wonderful to sit outside on the patio and enjoy the fantastic weather.

We then walked around all of my favorite stores.  J Crew, Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn, and Whole Foods.  

We then headed to Panera Bread for lunch and finished our shopping off at the REI Anniversary Sale.

Later that night we ate at Fleming's.  They have the best steaks and chocolate molten lava cake.  

We finished off the evening with a couples massage.  Tyson planned the perfect day for us.

I loved spending the entire day with my love.  Can't wait for next year!

Two Years Later

Tyson and I will be married two years tomorrow!

I will never forget that day. It definitely was the best decision of my life.

Tyson is my best friend and I couldn't imagine spending my life with anyone else.

I fall more and more in love with him everyday.

I am so happy I get to keep him FOREVER!!!!

My cute sister in-law Cortney tagged me in her post, so I thought, why not give it a try.

Huge Help

Last week was fantastic!  Tyson and I were finally able to move into our house and my mom and sister came to visit.  They were both saints for helping us move.  They brought in endless loads of boxes and clothes.  My mom did mine and Tyson's laundry, made homemade jam, brownies, cleaned all of my cupboards, floors, bathrooms, and so much more.  I don't know what I would have done without their help.  

I also got spoiled having my mom here for Mother's Day.  I sure do love that lady.  She has been my greatest example.  She is so giving and never complains.  My mama is truly amazing!

My sister also brought her puppy with her to visit.  GiGi couldn't have been more thrilled.  She has been moping around all day, since they have left.  

While they were here, we took the pups swimming.  It was hilarious to watch how much Cider loved the pool and how much GiGi hated the water.  She really thought I was trying to kill her.  Poor puppy!

Amongst all of the moving, we were still able to sneak in a little shopping, indulging in too many treats, and watching The Vow.  I don't know what I would do without my mom and sister.  Thank you again for your tremendous help!  Our house is now a home because of you.

Baby Parker

This little chunk

And this not so little chunk 

are having a BABY!!!!

We are beyond thrilled to announce we are having our very own bambino.  It is going to be interesting to see how much this baby weighs.  I weighed over 9 pounds and Tyson weighed almost 12 pounds and was 23 1/2 inches long.  Pray for me! 

It has been such a different experience this time around.  We have actually been able to see the baby move and hear the heartbeat, that being one of the best days of my life.  The baby is due November 30th, give or take a few days.  This Thanksgiving we are going to have a lot more to be thankful for.  

Being pregnant has made me fall more in love with my husband every day.  The poor guy has been waiting on me hand and foot, not to mention giving me a massage every day.  He brings me food to work almost every day.  I have spent 90% of my first trimester in my bed, which means Tyson has been doing the laundry, cooking and cleaning.  He is the best husband and I know he is going to be the best dad ever!  

I can now relate to all of those pregnancy symptoms my friends talk about.  I can't stand sweets.  I only want to eat potato chips and french fries.  I have to force myself to eat, which has been difficult because I love food.  It doesn't help that I crave Cafe Rio and Noodles and Company every day, knowing they are in Utah.  

Speaking of Utah, we are going to Utah the first week of June and you better believe I am counting down the days.  Cortney my sister-in-law told me we should find out the sex of the baby, while we are in Utah.  I can't wait!  

I am already so in love with this baby!
