Exciting News!

We are so excited to finally share our good news with you! It has been really hard to keep this secret for so long! I have no idea how people keep good news a secret! Drum roll please.... I am now almost 9 weeks pregnant with twins! Can you believe it! Sometimes it is hard for me to really face reality that I am pregnant and having not one but two babies. If it were not for all of the nausea and all day sickness it would not seem real. How in the world am I going to be able to handle two babies- I have no idea!

That is all for now....I have lots of stuff to post and write about from May! I will post again soon!

Hey Amanda I am extremely excited for you. Any time you have a baby it is such a blessing. You'll see when you first see those babies just how great it is. One of my favorite moments in life is the first time you greet your child to this earth. It's amazing. It will be fun to watch you GROW!!

Wahoo! Congratulations Amanda! That is soooo exciting! And two! You will have a blast with them as they get older...probably hard at first, but you will be such a great mom! How amazing and such a blessing. The nausea does go away, but it is definitely hard. Mine went away finally this week...15 weeks, but it had been getting tons better over time. Plus, it is such a good sign you are so sick. The sicker the better! If I wasn't at work, I would jump for joy for you guys. Congrats again and keep us updated!

Our Story...

Rob and I met in November of 2002 in the financial services office at BYU. After a very akward introduction, which involved me introducing myself in the third person, Rob called and asked me out. After a pretty amazing first date (its a long story-some other time), I confidently told Rob "that once he dated me he would never want to date anyone else." I really had no idea at that point that it was going to work out so well. We dated for the next five months and then one beautiful night on a bridge at Sundance resort, Rob and I got engaged. We were married four months later on August 16, 2003 in the Las Vegas, NV temple. And we have been living happily ever after since...
