Okay so I know everyone wants to see the baby bump!





I finally have a picture of myself pregnant! I am just over 24 weeks and we now know we are having a boy.  I dont have the ultrasound pics on the computer yet but I will post those soon.  Oh and excuse the messy room in the background!

This small town life.

Five years ago if someone told me I would be living in Iowa on acreage in a town smaller than Gilbert when all cities within a 75 mile radius are combined I would say you are nuts and where is Iowa even located? I actually more so imagined myself in a contemporary condo of some sort walking distance to starbucks and shopping in a city somewhere.... anywhere with cool shops and stuff to look at and do, oh yeah and some kind of waterfront too!  But here I am.  I will admit the adjustment was hard on some days primarily because I missed my family...oh and Chandler mall too....and a few other things... (pita jungle,zipps, etc. lol) , but I have come to really enjoy and appreciate so much that I never imagined.  This weekend Hannah and I planted our first garden, something in Arizona I probably would not have done, mostly because I had so many other things to do and places to go.  I feel like I have been dropped back into the fifties and life is slower here which I can definetly use since Hannah is growing up so fast!! None of this is to say that the country life is mine forever, but I do know that here is where we will make some of the best memories of our lives. 

Hannah is just getting started....
