okay so I stopped blogging because it seemed if you don't have sweet cute little kiddies to post about then it will bore people. But as I've read other blogs, I realize how nice it is to get an inside on even just some daily thoughts of the people you care about and don't get to see very often! So I decided THATS IT, I'm gonna blog! It may bore most people but its a great way to fill in your loved ones on your day to day life. Living out in the sticks we tend to not wander to the wasatch front very often, so perhaps I need to keep more up to date here!
Jordy and I have not been up to much besides work and hikin around the back country. We love love to find new lakes to hike out to up in the uintas, and lately we've been taking gold pans and gold panning small streams just for fun! It really is a fun quest!
Finding out we are pregnant is usually no big news for us because my body has been a professional baby killer. It fights it off like a bad germ! Infact, it's better at fighting babies than actual germs! But when we heard the heart beat the first time we knew this one was a fighter and wouldn't be takin my bodies guff! So now we are 14 weeks and truckin along smoothly;all be it incredibly nauseously. The nausia has sure helped me not to gain any weight so far though. I know that will change but I am sure counting my blessings for now. My doctor says I can keep my overall weight gain as low as 15 pounds for the whole pregnancy safely, considering I started out overweight.
I decided with how much I love reading and writing and being in nature, that it was time to bring it home with me. I began embarking on turning part of our back pasture into an amazing zen garden! I have so many ideas and the more I get into it I realize it will take years.
But I have at least begun. I dug a fire pit, and I have been collecting fieldstone from some of our hikes. I don't think I will get to start the stacked stone wall this year with the baby coming. I am so excited about this zen garden I have no idea why. Tilling the area for the zen garden itself was no walk in the park, lets just say it should perhaps not be done by a woman of my, shall we say fair bossumed stature!
