Our 1 year anniversary!

So on Sunday was our first anniversary! I can't believe its already been a year, time flies! Well Friday night Reed and I went up to Salt Lake for a night where we also went to Cabelas, The mayan, The gateway, and the living planet aquarium! It was really nice to get away for a bit and just have some RandR Time (Reed and Raquel time). I honestly have one of the most amazing husbands out there! Reed works hard everyday to provide for us and than some! He suprised me with getting me a $200 girt certificate to a day spa and salon, a set of real pearl earrings, and a pearl necklace! He is a super wonderful hubby! I am so blessed to have him as my husband!

My sissy got married!

So this last Saturday my sister Danielle and her fiance tied the knot! They have been togther for some time now and finally decided it was time! So they went and talked to the bishop and they arranged the date and time! Haha well they kinda only had like two and a half weeks to get ready for it! There plan was to have a really really simple wedding, so sissy and I went out and looked at really simple white church dresses and we found one for $80 and she loved it! Well the day before the wedding Shane took her to get her hair cut and colored and while that was going on Andy snuck off and bought her a real wedding dress that he found at Alyssas Bridal for $100! At first she was mad but once she tried it on she loved it! What a good Husband!










A bunch of random picutes!







Missy, Sissy, and me!




Dancing time was probably the best part of the whole wedding! They had a couple slow songs, but than reed felt the need to ask if they had any kind of ho-down music, they had cotton eye joe! The second the song started playing you hear a loud yeee haw! and reed is in the middle of the dance floor doing the ho-down all by himself! Everybody was in shock that nobody got any pictures of it but his legs were going above his head, it was crazy! But the crowd loved it!
Also the song 'Stayin alive' was played and Danielle danced with Jaymers to it!






Our very small family!



Off to the honeymoon!



Reed and I thought that it was so nice to come home from our wedding and have the room all nice that we would share that with someone else! So we cleaned up and decorated there bedroom!

A bunch of randomness!

Danielle (my sister) turned 31 last weekend! As a family we went out to Docs pizza buffet and had a small get together! We love you sisssy!

Laurie

The one thing that i have held very close to me since Laurie left us was this picture, I know thats dumb but this picture was taken when I finally got to see my aunt Laurie again for the first time in almost 10 years. She was really like my mom, i love her so much! I felt that I had to take that picture everywhere with me, it honestly stayed in my car for that whole year so that she could watch over me and be with me all the time! But I decided that I would take it up to the property with me and put it with Laurie.

25 weeks and still doing great!

So today Reed and I went in for our 25 week check up and also got the glucose test thingy done! Doc said Baby Hayden is doing great! His heartbeat is sounding wonderful and he is measuring corectly! I think she said this week he was 24 cm long! I could be wrong though! But anywho, with the glucose test everything came out to be good except they did tell me that my iron level is super low! So if i feel the need i can take an extra Iron supplement pill along with my daily pre-natal pill! But other than I am feeling fantastic, and can not wait for our little man to get here!
Also, last week he was kicking alot, and so i layed down on my bed and sat there and watched my stomach waiting to see if I could see him kick and for a while I really could only feel them but than out of no where he gave this huge kick and I finally saw it! It was the cutest thing in the world! It made me laugh how much he was kicking! But anywho, will update again soon!

Got a little man on the way!!

Yesterday Reed and I went in for our Ultrasound! Doc said baby is doing great and has all of its limbs! We have a little man on the way! Reed was really worried that it was going to be a hermaphrodite so he had asked doc if there was a chance at all that it could be one! Doc said no there was definetly just a lil man part there and nothing else! For the past couple of days i have been able to feel the baby moving. He has mainly been resting on my bladder! which is cute but a freakin pain in the butt! I feel like i am constintly going tee-tee! It definetly is a bonding moment when you can start to feel them move! I love it so much! Reed is so excited now and he actally believes that we have a baby! He kept thinking that i just had really bad gas or i have like tap worms growing inside of me with a heart beat! What an imagination! He was a little disappointed though to find out that there was only one baby in there! But i was relieved! Doc also said that i am a week further along than what we thought but it should not change the due date to much really! So that puts me at 20 weeks and 6 days! Doc had also checked my kidneys and they said that the baby is sitting on like the draining tube from my kidneys which is not letting my right kidney drain completly, so they said to just lay on my left side more to get baby off of that tube so it can drain! But that is what has been causeing all of the back pain!

First belly pic!

I know i should have been taking belly pictures this whole time but i broke my camera! But anywho, here is the first belly pic that i have taken! 17 weeks and 1 day. I will put more up soon!

Jaymee Lynn Hamilton

My older sister Danielle finally had her baby! I had told her that when she was to go into labor to call me so that i could be there for the birth! So i got a call at 6:30 in the morning from Andy her fiance letting me know that she was in labor. So i jumped out of bed and drove up to Salt Lake for the Birth. Now Andy made it sound like if i didn't hurry i was going to miss the birth so i was speeding the whole way up there! Well i didn't miss it at all! We still had about four hours to go till Jaymee was even ready to come! So we just sat and talked for a while and Danille kept saying i bet we have a baby at 11 o'clock. Well she did. On May 15, 2009 at 10:55 we got Jaymee Lynn Hamiliton. 6 pounds 18 inches long. Beautiful baby girl!






I was so excited when they were finally able to bring the baby into the room so we could all hold her! I cried a little while holding her because i am so anxious and so excited for the day when Reed and I will finally be able to hold our baby!

Jesse Graduated!

So my parents always told Shane, Jesse and I that if we did not try harder in our schooling than we would never make it any where in life and would not graduate, and of coarse us being kids did not want to listen so all just messed around in high school and didn't take it to serious. Well i really regret that now because they were right about everything. Because i did not take school serious i did not walk with my class! Well i can tell you that yes we all did graduate but only one out of five of us actually walked! Jesse Graduated and walked with his class this last weekend from Summit High School! Not only did he just graduate he also got an award for being a leader in the school! We are so proud of him! He also was asked to speak in the graduation on a tribute to the faculty! He did an outstanding job!
