So this is me at 22 weeks. I hate getting bigger. None of my cloths fit and I only have one pair of maternity shorts so I am wearing skirts that stretch. It’s awesome!

New bedding

We finally got new bedding. I was so happy to have it. We got some when we were married but the dry cleaners ruined it. I have been waiting until we move and the dogs where out of the house to get it. I am one happy girl!

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!

Today we found out that we are having a little girl. I am so excited. We both thought it was going to be a girl for a while now, so I was not surprised. The first thing I thought about was going and getting a new cute baby girl outfit. I hated waiting because you can’t get anything.

Right when the ultrasound person walked out of the room the first thing tuffer said was “well that’s one wedding we are going to have to pay for."
I said “really that came to your mind that fast, are you kidding."

We went to lunch after the doctors and tuffer told me I could get one outfit for the future Lillian. So I went to a few stores and this is what I got. It was really hard to only get one outfit, I wanted them all. When I picked it out I said all it needs now is a really big bow!

Oh and we decided on a name its Lillian Claire Whiting

Random

To all of you that think I am the worst blogger in the world. I am trying to be better now that I am settled in. These are just some random pics of us.

I just got this headband off of etsy.com. Its a really cool site with lots of homemade crafts everyone should check it out. I wanted to get something new because, I feel big and prego and nothing looks good on me, headbands always fit.

I didn’t think I looked pregnant enough so I tried this!

This is me at 17 weeks. I feel enormous but I doubt anyone can tell besides Tuffer.

This week I went to a you pick strawberry patch with some girls from our new ward. It was really nice to get out and meet new people, oh and get good strawberries.

Minnesota

We are finally starting to get settled into our new house. The one thing that I really wanted was a table and chairs so that we can eat outside, which is my favorite thing about summer. We eat every meal we can out here.

This is our massive backyard. We got a lawn mower and it takes about an hour and a half to mow the whole thing.

I love gardens! Nothing is better than fresh home grown veggies. It just happened that the house we got had a really big garden! We planted tomatoes, basil, rosemary, pumpkins, broccoli, cauliflower, peppers and many other things. Since we moved in a little late in the season I am hoping that all of the plants will take.

This is the tiny part of the garden that we actually planted in. Next year we want to use the whole thing and plant lots of stuff.

Minnesota is very hot and humid. The dogs to not like that very much at all ( especially because they can not come into the house). We got them a pool for $5 so that they can cool off; they absolutely love it.

When we where moving we had a lot of cleaning we had to do. Being pregnant I am a little paranoid about breathing in too many chemicals. I didnt know what to do because I can lift a lot being prego. I came up with a plan I made a mask out of paper towels and a dog leash so that it would block some of the chemicals.

Our new house

I hate looking for houses. I really mean it. I love to look at homes but when it comes to buying a house for us, I just totally hate it. We flew into MN on Wednesday and found our house in Friday. We are under contract now, so I think this will be the one. We will be moving around the 27th. I have a feeling it will come faster than I think. But I really am just glad we found a house and we do not have to make another trip out. I am also glad that it has a big back yard so that the dogs will have lots of room to play, now that they are going to be outdoor doggies.

April Fools Day!

So this was the most memorable April Fools Day ever, I found out that I am pregnant. But the problem with finding out on April Fools Day is that no one believes you. Originally I was going to play a joke on my family and tell them I was pregnant and I didn’t think I was. But I was a few days late so I though I would just take a test for fun. Come to find out I was pregnant so it really wouldn’t be a joke to tell everyone. It took a positive pregnancy test, and me over ten minutes for my mom to believe me. ( I had to take the test to her) My favorite thing was telling all my family, and listening to their responses. The best ones where my dads; he said " HOLY CRAP". Also my little brothers was funny he said, " The joke is on me."
