Exciting News!!!

Since I am a fabulous blogger- we have had alot of exciting stuff happen since my last post!

First off- I wasn't able to get a job close to Delta but gratefully got hired at Dixie Regional Medical Center as an orthopedic nurse on the 4th floor. I really like working in St. George again! The people I work with are fabulous and really like the patient care.

Just a couple weeks into working there- we found out we were EXPECTING our FIRST little one! I am a nerd and on the first prego test we took I thought it said negative. So we went camping for the weekend with friends totally bummed about the result (but not bummed to be getting out). Then Sunday morning we took another test and it was a definite POSITIVE!! Let's just say that keeping it a secret for a few weeks was so absolutely HARD!!! But once I started getting sick, I had to let it out! It was fun being able to tell our families.

Then came decision time- with me working in St. George and living in Cedar- colby decided it was time to give his two weeks notice and move back in with me so that we could have our little family. He has always wanted to go back to school and we decided that this was the PRIME opportunity. He jumped right into fall semester and is completing his pre-requisit courses to become a RADIOLOGY TECHNICIAN. He went back to work with his old boss and bro-in-law working part-time as an apprentice electrician. School has been a battle but he is getting the hang of things and I am so proud of his decision to get a degree and better our situation for our family.



So he moved into my dungeon of an apartment. It didn't take both of us living there for long to decide that it just wasn't going to do for our growing family! After about a month of looking and a couple months of counter-offers. We were able to move into our house on October 7th thanx to the help of my wonderful dad who brought down the truck and horse-trailer to help us out! Thanx DAD!!!

But now for the most EXCITING NEWS OF ALL!!! We were able to have our BIG ULTRASOUND on Tuesday. We were able to see our little one on the ultrasound and in 3D. It was so fun to see. We found out that we are expecting a LITTLE GIRL!! Her name will be HAYDEN MILLIE BLISS. She was shy and wouldn't let us get a picture of her little face- however, she wasn't shy about showing us that she is for sure a little girl!

It was so fun and we are so excited to officially meet her around April 17th, 2010. She already has her dad wrapped around her little finger!!!
