Guess what....

We're gonna have another little Lincoln! (Yes the rumors are true) Some days it's exciting news, other days, not so much. But yea anyway! A few weeks ago I just felt different. It wasn't the same as last time I was pregnant, so I wasn't for sure. I finally decided to go get the test. But of course on the way to the store to get it I drank my lovely Dr. Pepper just in case; I had to enjoy that last one if it was! It was a happy and sad moment all in one when it said positive. My first thought was "No more Dr P??!!" (it was a very rough first few days, but I'm over the worst) And it was perfect timing for Mike! He had already said goodbye and was on his way to California, I thought! I called him to tell him the wonderful news over the phone and before I said it, he said he was on his way for a half hour before they had to leave. Yea! It was fun:) He's super excited!

Anyways.... We went to the wedding and loads of fun down in St G. We got to see everyone, go to the temple and see them get married (the best!), hang out and be lazy, play lots of games, eat Cafe Rio twice, go on a hike then go to Mesquite... It was fun for Linc to get to play with his grandparents he doesn't get to see much. And I'm so grateful for Shelley for watching Linc while we were at the wedding.

Peekaboo!

I woke up from a nap and found Lincoln was a girl!

He would make such a pretty girl with those blues!

On the way home, we stopped in Ogden for a couple hours to see my family. We had some yummy food and got to hang out and chat for a bit. It was really nice to have to drive the whole way back. It's a 7.5 hr trip. Yuck. On the way there, we made it there at 3am! We were so sleepy, but it was totally worth it because Lincoln slept the whole time.

Mike and I both took Monday off. It was so nice to just be home and get everything done that needed and just be together. We even got to go out on a date that night while Marlene was so nice to watch Linc. Derrick came with us, but I still consider it a date, whatever:) Bonsai, delicious!

We went back to work and real life when Mike had a brilliant idea for us to go to SLC Thursday. I'm so glad! He had to fly out on Friday morning for Alaska, again, so we went down to Ogden and dropped Linc off at my parents (which we are so grateful!) and headed to SLC and stayed in a hotel that night just the two of us. Wonderful. Between Mike and I both working all the time, the recent trips, and his friends living with us at the moment, we hardly ever get time alone. I'll let you what, it was priceless! Now I miss him even more! They just started a job this afternoon and will be doing 2 more, so we are hoping he'll be home Thursday. Please! (Big huge blog smooch to you Mikey!)

Today was not the best day! It hardly felt sick with Linc, but this kid! I barely made it to church. I hope it goes away soon! My poor house is awful. I haven't wanted to do anything. And next week I get to work 40+ hours. Yea, not really. Not excited. But enough complaining! That's my goal this week is to be nicer and not complain as much. (I've been so mean and grouchy lately!) I'll make it a better week:)
