Updates...

So it's July 4th obviously and i am SO proud to be an American! I hope this country will stay free and I will do all that I can to help keep it that way! Anyway on a different note I am a little more than month away from baby #2 coming! It's crazy! I am nervous and feel inadequate and so young to have 2 kids, but I know I'm so blessed so I'm VERY grateful! I know she is coming at the right time :) I just need to have more faith in myself and Heavenly Father's ability to help me be a great mom and wife. I get stressed and anxious so easy sometimes and it makes things harder than they need to be, especially lately, but luckily I have a sweet and patient husband who calms my fears and also a loving heavenly father! I'm so grateful for the gospel! I'm very blessed to have a Mom (and Dad) who will listen to me vent and help me through things when I need it. Lincoln is such a blessing in our family he is such a good little helper and is so happy most of the time! Every sunday the nursery leaders tell us how good he is and how laidback and happy he is, they LOVE him! He loves nursery too! He is saying so many cute new things and has the funnest personality! I wanted to write more but he just woke up from his nap. So more form me later!

Really cool experience!

So a new cool thing that has happened that is really exciting is our neighbor, Alicia, who I went to school with but never really new asked us a few months back about our ward and what time we met etc. and I had never seen her at church so I just figured she was maybe a less active member, we referred the missionaries to her and turns out she is not a member...YET! haha, they started teaching her, she has had quite a few lessons and even one over at our apartment and she came to church with us last sunday, she really seemed to like it and really wants to change her life, she just had the lesson on the Word of wisdom and is going to quit smoking! She is such an example to me, She is a single mom with a son Lincoln's age and just wants to be a good person and make a better life for her and her son, It's so cool to see! Hopefully she keeps loving the gospel and gets baptized! I'm blessed to be a part of her conversion, It's awesome :)  My testimony has been strengthened a ton mostly because of her great example of change, I love it!

Baby #2, Air Force, new job!

So first of all as everyone already knows, I am pregnant, I will 27 weeks tomorrow :) It's been a pretty good pregnancy, i was really sick the first trimester of course but it's worth it and i have felt much better since then, although i have started getting heartburn even though i take meds for it, and feel nauseous again sometimes, but that's okay it is just minor and once i eat something and rest or lay down for awhile i feel better usually! We are having a baby girl, which I am SOOO excited about! I have already made her a few little flower bow things to go in her hair and am going to make her some cute lil' tutus! Another HUGE thing that has happened in our lives in that Steven Is joining the Air Force, he got accepted recently and now the next step is him going up north getting his physical, and getting sworn in! So it's pretty crazy and scary but we prayed about it and went to the temple  and everything about it and it feels like the right thing, plus the benefits are AWESOME! It will be hard though cause he will leave to basic training probably about a month after the new babe is born and I will probably move in with my parents so I can have help with the 2 babes! Also Lincoln is talking up a storm and walking all around, he has been walking for awhile now, his favorite thing and word is "bah" which translated is ball! It's so cute he loves playing with all his toy balls with Steven, he also LOVES showers and going to town square ( a little water park downtown for kids.) He loves watching Barney, although it can on1ly keep his attention for a few minutes which is probably good because then he isn't wanting to watch it all day! He is a pretty picky eater and his diet consists of chicken nuggets, yogurt, snacks, broccolli, carrots, and anything sweet of course! He doesnt even like pb & j's! He is so much fun though and very happy and easy going most of the time! Church is getting hard though cause he is EVERYWHERE and wants to explore EVERYTHING which is good but super tiring, ha luckily Steven takes him to priesthood with him usually, but only a few more months til' nursery! YAY! :) Another new thing is that Steven has a newish job at Biolife, the plasma center in town, and he really likes it! Th his ank goodness! It's nice having a husband that enjoys his job! Anyway that's my little update for the last 6 months!
