Georgia Rain!!!

So it has rained about five times since we moved here to Georgia three weeks ago.  I absolutely LOVE it when it rains! It is so warm and it gets all misty.  I was hoping to capture it on video, but you can't really tell, plus this was one of the days it was a lighter rain. Also, I kind of got our front and backyard and a little of our house so you can see where we are living:)  We really like our landscaping because it reminds us of Washington.  And the lady we rent from pays someone to come do the lawn and pest control! It is awesome:)

3rd Anniversary!

So a couple days ago I made this big long heartfelt post about how I can't believe Jeff and I have been married for three years and he is so perfect for me and I love everything about him and I am so lucky to have him, yada yada.... I go to submit it and something happened and it logged me out of blogger, needless to say I lost the whole thing and it was way too long for me to remember what I typed and it was weird trying to remember and saying the same thing over.  I was so mad I had to walk away, so this is attempt number two and I can already tell its not going to be as good but what can you do?  Three years is a pretty long time though, I remember when we first got married and people said they had been married for six months and I was like, "woah..." haha.  I just can't believe how happy we are and how amazing our life is!  I never thought life would be this good three years ago when we got married.  Not that I thought it was going to be terrible or anything, but I loved Jeff so much and now it feels like I hardly knew him then.  I am hoping that this cycle continues and ten, twenty years down the road I say the same thing that I hardly knew him now and I love him so much more in the future, but right now that does not seem possible.  Jeff is perfect for me in every way.  He is so patient with me and complements my imperfections.  I love him so much and can't imagine spending one day of my life without him as my husband.  I am so lucky to get to spend eternity with him.  Yay for three years of wedded bliss!!!

It's a Girl!!!

We went to the Doctor in Royston today.  It is about a twenty minute drive or so.  We were just going to basically meet the doctor and get a regular check-up, but we told him we didn't know what it was yet, so he said he would check with the ultrasound technician to see if she could squeeze us in.  Jeff looked so excited because he has been dying to know what it is (so have I...) anyway, she said she would fit us in after she was done with the one she was working on.  She measured everything and it all was healthy and well.  Then she showed what we later found out was a leg.  She asked if we could tell what it was and Jeff and I both assumed she was showing us the penis and said it was a boy.  She then adjusted her probe thingy to show the other leg and said, "ummm, there's nothing in between the legs, your having a girl!"  Jeff and I looked at each other and started laughing, because we realized that would have been one HUGE penis!! hahah!!  But we are so so so excited to have a little girl, we had both talked about how it would be best to have a girl first, for various reasons.  Jeff said if we had a boy next it would be better for the boy to have a big sister to be looking over his shoulder and looking out for him to be sure he is being good like his sisters did.  Haha, I thought that was so cute! Anyway, we are thinking of several names we like but we probably won't decide until we see her and make sure she looks like the name we pick!!! We are so excited and feel so blessed to be having a daughter this Thanksgiving!!

20 weeks prego!!


Here I am at 20 weeks pregnant!! I am so excited, I am starting to get a little bump!! We just found a doctor in Royston which it about 25 minutes away.  Our first appointment is tomorrow.  Our baby will be born at Ty Cobb Memorial Hospital which Jeff thinks is pretty cool, since he was a famous baseball player.

Happy 4th of July!!

We celebrated the 4th of July mostly just by wearing red, white and blue.... We drove to Athens, which we thought was a big city looking for some sort of festival or something which we never found.  We went shopping at some outlets and bought some little clothes for our new baby.  We finally decided to go to dinner at Olive Garden.  After that we noticed people gathering at a park to watch some fireworks but they weren't going to start for another two hours so we just went home and watched a movie.
