I can't believe it is already towards the end of August. It seems this year has flown by already. We have A LOT of changes and few things that have actually stayed the same.




I'll start from the beginning!!! November 22, Bryan and I finally got married. It seemed like it had been forever since we got engaged. Now, all the wedding plans are done. No more stressing about little details, that to be completely honest, I didn't even care about that day. It turned out great. Everyone made it down the aisle in one piece and Bryan actually showed up! Our second reception went great even with a little snow. We are both so excited that there is no more planning for the wedding anymore. It took up all of our time. Thank you to everyone that helped we couldn't have done this without you.
We are still renting a house outside of Charleston. That hasn't changed. Bryan still works at Schilling Bros. in Mattoon, but there is one slight change. He is now selling machinery. So if you need a new John Deere tractor or lawnmower, be sure to look him up. He seems to like his new position. He just got back from New Product Intro. in Omaha, NE. He seemed like he had fun going out there, even though he did leave me for three days.
Another new change came about on May 29th. Some of you may know that this is Bryan's birthday. Bryan turned 29 and learned that he will be a daddy! I took a test that afternoon after some pushing from my mom. Well, after a frantic call to my mom, I took that test (wrapped in a newspaper, it's all I could find) to the barn and told him to open his present. He had no idea! He was completely shocked. First thing he said, "Are you sure?" Well, after two more tests, I think he finally realized that it might be true. Monday I went to the doctor's, and it was confirmed. The very next day I had another doctor appointment. He said everything is going well, but they had no idea how far along I was. So I had my first ultrasound at what turned out to be 6 weeks. My due date is February 1st (my mom's birthday)!
After the ultrasound, I was back in the doctor's. I was put on bed rest for 3 weeks, but now everything is going great. First trimester came and went with no big concerns after the bed rest. No real sickness which is great. Now we are exactly 17 weeks in. Can't wait until February!!
Bryan took some pics of me at 17 weeks.
Other than that, no real big changes in our lives. We will take one huge change at a time!
