More CAKE

So this was my final project for my classes, it was fun to do a stacked cake....

ANNIVERSARY

Today is our two year anniversary!! We spent the weekend in Park City and we had a great time just hanging out and not being on any time schedule. Tonight we went to dinner at texas road house, but shawn is not feeling so well so he is alseep on the couch.... and I am blogging.

I just have to say that WOW time really does fly, I feel like we were just barely getting married, and now its been two years and we have a baby on the way. Life is crazy how it is always changing! I am so grateful for shawn, he truly is the greatest and I love him so much! (Thanks for putting up with me babe!) It has been an awesome two years, and I am certain that the best is yet to come (it always is).

Sweet "k"akes!

Here are some of my latest cakes.... fun stuff!

The most AMAZING THING!!!!

So today I experienced the most amazing thing i think i have ever experienced in my life, we saw our baby for the very first time!!! I hasn't seemed real to me yet, but actually seeing a little human moving around, and a beating heart hit me so hard. It is now so real to me, I already love this baby more than any words can explain, it is such an overwhelming feeling, I can't imagine what it will be like to actually hold this baby in my arms. I never knew how it would feel experiencing this for myself, i have always thought ultrasounds pictures were so awesome, but being my baby it is totally different.... I have looked at the pictures so much today. Babies are such amazing miracles I can't believe what our bodies are capable of doing! I have been (and still am) very emotional today, I am just so grateful for this amazing blessing in my life. I can't think of a better dad for my children than Shawn, he is so beyond great... I truly am so lucky to have him in my life. To paiges dissapointment there infact was only one baby, she was pretty sad that her guess of twins was indeed wrong (luckily)!

Dads Birthday, and yet another chapter......

For my dads b-day on the 17th of septemeber we went out to eat at Texas Road House Grill (MY FAVORITE!!!) While there I announced to my family that there will be another grandbaby added to our mix... that is right, shawn and I are expecting our first baby! I couldn't be happier, Im so excited for this new chapter in our lives!
