Today marks our two year anniversary of marriage! We are still so happy and in love. We've been talking about what we remember in waiting for our wedding day and how it all went.
We've also talked about how much we've learned about each other and how we have grown to love each other more each day.
One thing that I have been trying to do more lately is to fill up Justin's love tank. Whether that be by building him up with kind words, or making him feel special, or just kissing him for no reason other then I love him. I have noticed that it has helped us so much. Also I get that same kind of treatment in return so we don't have much to complain about. =)
Justin's been really cute lately and going about doing things for me and then when I ask him to do them he just says, " wiggle your nose" aka bewitched. So I do then ask him to do it again and find that he already did it.
We have had a lot of changes happen for us this year in a short time and I have relied on Justin so much for support, help and reassurance that everything will work out.
I know that we'll make it and make it last for forever. That thought keeps me trying and finding new ways to love my husband and show him that love. I am grateful for the sealing powers of the temple and that I can be with my love, my sweetheart, my husband for forever.
Hi all, if you haven't guessed yet we are having a baby! I am due the last week of February into March and am feeling pretty good. We told all our family last week so now we are spreading the news!
I have been feeling pretty good. July was really hard for me, feeling gross, weak, and tired with a big ole' house to clean. But other then that not too bad. I had an aversion to chicken for a while, the sight, smell, taste.Bleh. Even eggs but that is getting better.Fortunately, I only threw up once, unfortunately it was in an Inkley's parking lot. The first of many embarrassing things to happen to me I am sure.=) I am 14 weeks and almost no sickness unless I go too long without eating.
We are so excited! Justin especially. After we were married two months or so he brought up having kids. I wasn't quite ready then. We weren't exactly planning for right now but are grateful for the fun surprise. At our last appointment we were able to hear the baby's heartbeat and that was really cool. We will be able to find out if it's a boy or girl in October and let you all know!
So we went and told my parents. I made a onesie that says the number five on it since it's my parents 5th grandbaby. They were cute and my mom got all teary. My dad always complains that he's the last to know anything. So we were all together at the table about to play a game and it still took him a while to figure it out. My mom had to say, " Ralph, Alaina's giving us baby clothes." My dad just looks at us. It was funny. They are excited and happy for us.
Then the next day all of Justin's family was over for Jinni's sweet sixteen birthday party. We thought about waiting till Justin's mom's birthday in a few weeks but my belly is getting bigger and I didn't think I could hide it much longer. It's kind of a long video but it is only a snippet of how excited his mom got. It's the first one on Justin's side so everyone is excited. We got her a onesie that said " Grandma's little peanut on it."
Video below:
Then we told Grandma Michilena, she's so cute. She is a little hard to understand so I'll do a translation underneath.
She starts off talking about something I am not sure then teases Justin about what chair she's sitting on. Then Justin has them both close their eyes and puts the onesie in front of them. She looks at it and says, " Is this for you baby?" Then she tells Jyana that she's next and talks about how it will be her 4th great grandbaby. Then she ends by telling Jourdan no babies yet. She's cute. Justin's mom could hardly stay quiet till they got home the other day.
So there you have it. We are going to be parents. yikes. It will be good, we feel very blessed and grateful for this opportunity.
