17 weeks

As of today, I am 17 weeks! Wow that is crazy. Time goes by SO fast. I remember when I was 6 weeks and I was like "Oh my gosh I just want to be 12 weeks already!" Haha. Last week and weekend was fun because it was my birthday on the 22nd and it was our one year anniversary on the 30th! For my birthday, we decided to go to Yellowstone. I wanted to do something fun but I knew I was limited since I'm still a little sick. Since we live an hour and a half away from Yellowstone, I was like why not?! It was a really fun day and we saw elk, bison, and a bighorn sheep. Yellowstone is so dang beautiful and I feel like people in Rexburg take it for granted. Every BYU-I student needs to take at least one trip there because it is one of the most cool places in the world. After our day trip to Yellowstone, we had a nice dinner in Idaho Falls. It was a wonderful last birthday before becoming a mommy :) For our annivesary, we went to dinner and gave each other our gifts. I made Jake a photo book of our first year together. While going through it with him, I realized how many exciting things happened for us during our first year. We went to Mexico, we got our cat Rue, Jake got his promotion at work, I graduated with a Bachelor's degree, and we got pregnant! I'd say it was a pretty eventful year! For my gift, Jake got me a really pretty bouquet of flowers and cake mix/frosting because I really had been wanting to make a cake. I've always heard people say "the first year of marriage is the hardest" and if that's the case then dang have we got this marriage thing covered!!
