lots and lots!

i feel like i have so much to update on, but at the same time we havent really been up to too much.....

the week after school got out, we went to colorado to visit my family. my dad retired from the air force, so we had a little ceremony for him. the next week, we headed to flaming gorge reservoir, and rented a house boat and ski boat for the week! it was a very fun vacation and a much needed break from school! jared had a fun time jumping and diving off the top of the house boat!
i never put up pictures of our little guy from his 3rd photo shoot!i think he is so so cute and love him so much already! i really have enjoyed being pregnant, and now that i feel my little buddy moving more and more i get so excited and anxious for decemeber to get here. i was keeping my fingers crossed and praying for a little girl, but the more i think about this little guy, the more excited i get to be having a boy. and im still secretly excited to still be the only girl in my family! jared has been able to feel him kick quite a few times, but as soon as jared puts his hand on my stomach, he seems to 'swim' away...^22 weeks and 3 days... first day of school as a 4th grade teacher!

and finally i started school! i met my new fourth graders today. we have 14 boys and 6 girls in my class. i am excited to get going and to learn more about my students, but lets be honest, im ready to be done so i can have my baby!

jared doesnt start school for 2 more weeks, so he has just been working and hanging out. thats about all from our end... we are just "patiently" waiting for our new addition to arrive

jared was beyond excited when we found out our little one is a boy! as much as i love the color pink and was keeping my fingers crossed for a little girl, im not upset at all to find out we are having a boy! growing up with all girls i dont know the first thing about raising a boy, but i know this little buddy of ours will be the perfect addition to our family. and hey, i'll always be the prettiest one in my little family of three :) ill post some picture soon, he was so cute to look at!
