She's Here!!

Our little Giana (Gia for short), is finally here, and we are absolutely LOVING her!! Being a mom is even better than I expected, and Dall Loves being a dad. We are having tons of fun, changing lot's of diapers, and definitely learning new things. :) She was born on Nov. 18, and weighed 8lbs. 2 oz., 20.5 in. long. Labor was great once I had the epidural! :) We really had a good experience with the whole birth and in the hospital. We are very thankful that everything went well and that our little girl is here and healthy!
At first we thought she looked exactly like Dallan and his side of the family....but she looks like my baby pics too. She is changing everyday, so now we just aren't sure who she looks like. All we know is that we think she is adorable and can't get enough of her! Here are a few snapshots until I get her 1 week pics back.

Counting Down

Wow it has been a while, but I'm sure you are all used to my terrible blogging habits by now! Yes it has been a few months, but the past few have been awesome! It's been so much fun getting ready for our little girl and having baby showers and such. Now we are counting down the days till we get to meet her! (I'm also counting down the days till I'm not lugging around this huge belly!)
I LOVE this time of year, and can't wait for the rest November and December to be with family and celebrate the Holidays! It's going to be a memorable one! :)
Here are a few pics of some things we did in September & October.....

Happy 5 Year Anniversary Sweetie!

Dall is the Love of my life and my love of forever! I'm so thankful to be married to him and can't believe it's been 5 years! We were in Lake Powell for our anniversary on August 26th, so we are celebrating this weekend and we will see what Dall has up his sleeve for it. The past 5 years have been the best!
Sweetie, thanks for being my best friend, making me laugh, smile, and feel like a princess every day for the past 8 years since the day I met you. You are everything to me! Love you Babe, and ALWAYS will!

Who else is counting down for this? Oooh I can't wait!

I'm Alive!!

Goodness Gracious!!! I'm so bad at blogging in the summer! Seriously, I'm too busy having fun to stop and blog, but it's getting a little ridiculous! :) One day I will catch up on our summer vacations and stuff. Right now, we are getting excited to go to Lake Powell and finish up the summer with one last vacation. It will be our last one before we have the baby, so it's an important one! Next week is also our 5 year anniversary! I can't believe how fast it has gone by! Here are a few pics of the last little bit and my ever-growing belly! Exactly 3 months left till my original due date! Eeeek! She might be coming sooner now though!

July! Hooray for Summer!

So excited that it's July! Summer makes me all sorts of happy. Yesterday was our 20 week appointment, and the doc still says it's a girl! We are SO excited! We got the crib and now its time to start shopping for all the fun girl stuff! :)

Cherries are on right now so be sure and email me if you want some! They are to die for! YUM!

Oh and we had the best time on the cruise with my family! Pics coming soon! Hope you all have the greatest 4th of July! If you're going up to Lava Hot Springs we will see you there! :)

Cherries Anyone?

YUM!!

So, as a lot of you know, my darling parents have a big fruit farm in Willard. It is mostly sweet cherries and they are about to be in season in 2 weeks! And I have to say they are absolutely to die for!!
Things get a tad hectic for my parents during the season and so my sisters and I try to help as much as possible. The local fruit stands buy my parents cherries (so you have probably eaten them before:), but we let people like YOU order them from us at about $.50-$1.50 cheaper per pound than what the fruit stands sell them for. If you think you or your family would like to get some delicious cherries for cheap, let me know and I will contact you as soon as they are officially in season and being picked! My family and I will be out of town next week, so I am getting names of people who want them this week to make things easier! Feel free to email me with your info.... heatherlynmk@hotmail.com so I can give you all the juicy details when it gets closer! :)
