Its Been Forever..

I know that it's been a long long time since I have posted! I didn't really feel like anything amazing was going on in our lives other than the fact that we are working, which is typical, not amazing.

The first update that I should give is that we now live in San Montero Apartments, and we LOVE it. We moved there at the end of April, so yes, weve been here for a few months. This will be our third home since being married 2 years. We went from little Lakeview, to living in a big two story with Jon's mom, and now we are here, and we plan to stay for a while. We'll see what happens.

Alright. So, if you did NOT know already, (im almost sure i blabbed it to everyone i could) but yes, I'M PREGNANT!! How crazy is THAT! I still feel like the same old courtney, except with growing pains... literally..

SOO... the official story:
On the night of the 14th, I had this insane dream where I dreamed that I had just taken a positive pregnancy test. I was rushing around and trying to find my parents so I could find them, and see their reactions, and I was worried in my dream because I thought they would react badly! (of course, this is not the case..) Anyway, I ended up waking up at 4:30 am, the morning of the 15th, and I was so anxious, I decided to just take the stinkin test already! Hoping there was enough.. "liquid" in me to do it, I sleepily stumbled to the restroom, and lo and behold, the test read POSITIVE! I was too shocked to go back to bed! I decided I HAD to wake Jon.. Of course, he wasnt too happy about being pushed and shoved to wake up and listen to me, but while he was half asleep I told him, and all of the sudden he was AWAKE! HAHA! "huh, what? WAIT REALLY!?!?!?!" Its funny looking back at it.

So then I thought itd be good to surprise Jon's mom, and ended up meeting her at the mall, and just dropped the news on her and she was all happy she started crying! It was cute. A 40 year old grandma, who woulda thunk it! haha! I also went to the doctor officially, to make sure that my test was correct! It took the stupid doctor forEVER, but he finally came in and announced a big CONGRATS to me!

So THENNNN..... MY parents turn! Me and Jon's mom went and found a cute little picture frame that said "Baby" on the side of it, and I wrapped it up. We headed to Casa Grande around 630pm and surprised them with a visit! We gave them the frame as a "belated birthday for dad, and early birthday for mom" and when they opened it, I finished with "because youre gonna need this in 8 months.." Haha! It was perfect. They were really excited!!!

So now Im trying to get used to the fact that I can actually SMELL things, which isnt normal for me, and also that I need to cut out the junk food, and OH YEA remember to actually EAT.
On the day Jon and I found out, we did some random research, and my baby was compared to a "Chocolate Sprinkle", so for those of you who have Jon on your facebook, you will now understand why his status was "Chocolate Sprinkle :)"
Awww, my lil Chocolate Sprinkle! haha!! I thought it was cute so ive been sticking with it since. Although, Chocolate Sprinkle wont work for long, so we'll have to come up with some other good delicious comparisons.

Well, ladies and gents, thats all for now. I have a doctors appt. on the 29th to determine the exact date and all that fun stuff, and to answer all of the questions, yes im very excited, i kind of want a girl, and jon is convinced we'll have a boy, we are fine with either way though (gonna have to be) and also, one of my best friends is 3 months ahead of me! Angela, of course.
Im hoping to keep updated!!! I'll post pictures when I get some good ones. :)
