What's new?

I guess its been a while since I have blogged about anything. I think its because there hasn't been much that has been picture worthy since Christmas and that's usually when I think to blog. But, there have been a few new things in our lives.

The first, and most notable, if you didn't notice it from Facebook or from the new item on the top of the blog is: I am pregnant. I am now a little over 14 weeks. Yesterday I felt great...pushed it too hard (cleaning all day) and today I feel horrible...I woke up with the worst headache and I am nauseous too. Ugh! Its been a harder pregnancy thus far than my others in some ways. I don't know if its my age or the fact that this is #4 but I have been a lot more tired than I remember being with the other pregnancies. It doesn't take much to wear me out.

At about 11 1/2 weeks I had an ultrasound and the doctor said he was 75% sure it is a boy (I didn't even know they could tell that early on!). So, I have been trying to get used to that idea because in my head I was ready for a girl...it just would have been easier (we have a girl name, lots of girl clothes, it would make our family even and she could share a room with Mackenzie). I have another ultrasound on April 21st and then we will know with more certainty. I am really anxious to get rid of the clothes in my garage that I won't need for this baby!

The next new thing in my life is: I was called to be the Young Women's President in my ward. I have been a counselor for about 8 months or so and I didn't think being president would be much different but I was wrong. The biggest stress has been trying to get my counselors called...ugh! Long story but its been more than three weeks since they called me and I still am missing one counselor and a camp director.

Hmmmm... what else? I am ready for Spring! I am so tired of sweatshirts and socks! I want warmth, swimming pools and flip flops!
