BABY, and a modest one at that. We didn't get a shot of the goods. Don't worry though, I'm not discouraged ;) I do believe we'll be booking a 3D ultrasound that promises gender determination...I am just so excited, I can't wait! We did find out that the baby is healthy, and good. It is such a blessing, and miracle to have a healthy little baby. When we got this ultrasound done with Brooke, they couldn't find her nose bone ... and not having a nose bone is a sign of Down Syndrome. We got sent to Calgary for a in-depth ultrasound a few weeks later they found her nose bone. However, that was the most trying and heart wrenching couple of weeks of my life. It wasn't because I wouldn't love my baby, but because I felt inadequate becoming a first time mother ... let alone becoming a first time mother to a child with special needs.

Anyways, that is all :) Just thought I would update and say that there is no news!

Oh, and I also say boy....but we'll see.

I've been called out ...

I was called out a week or so ago by M ... she thinks I need to blog more :) She's probably right.

However there isn't a whole lot going on. Everything is the same. Cardel hasn't started digging our house yet either so that's the same to. Although they assure us we'll be in by April...we'll see.

We FINALLY got an ultrasound booked for tomorrow :) Seriously, it's been 2.5 months since my doctor sent in the requisition. This is my 1st trimester ultrasound, even though i'm over 17 weeks. However, I'm hoping baby shows his or her goods and we can find out this little ones gender :D I'm one that just can't wait. Say what you will about it, but I just have to know asap ... haha.

So it's been a while....

Okay, so ALOT has happened since the last time I posted....

We have been to Mexico and back, and had so much fun! Brookey loved it. She loved swimming in the pooey (pool) but mostly loved the BIG pooey (Ocean). It was a great vacation.

In May we got news that we were being transferred back to Calgary for Kale's work. So Kale finished building our garage and took off for Calgary mid July while B and I stayed back to try and sell the house. We tried to do it privately because selling a house with a realtor just seemed to be a lot more expensive then we needed at the time. We had quite a few people look, but no one seemed to be really serious in wanting to purchase so in September we decided to enlist the services of our trusty realtor Jason. Well, our house never hit the MLS and 3 days later was conditionally sold. It was literally a miracle in this housing market. We have houses around us that have been on the market for over a year! What an answer to our prayers. On October 1st we closed on the house and now we're out.

We looked at lots of housing options in Calgary but nothing really spoke to us so we have decided to take the long road to building our house. Kale got the contract to do the plumbing and heating for our house for a little bit of sweat equity...and I mean a little bit. However it was just enough to take the house from the category of doable but a little expensive to quite doable so we took it! While our house is being built Kale is still (obviously) working in Calgary but we've decided to stay in Cranbrook and live with my parents until our house is done. I know what your thinking....we're crazy to live apart. It's very much a money saving operation, and what we felt was a bit of sacrifice right now was best for our future in Calgary. Brookey is also very comfortable here, so here we will stay.

In other news, and just to add to the craziness that is my life right now .... We're Pregnant! I'm 11 weeks along and mostly feeling good. Baby is due April 27th (and our move in date is April 1st). Brookey is excited to be a big sister and loves to kiss my tummy. She'll be great!

Anyways, that is all our big news. We're sad to leave Cranbrook, but excited for our future as a family of 4 in Calgary.

Under the circumstance's life is good :)

3 Years

1 comments Posted by Kendra at 4:43 AM

I can't believe that Kale & I have been married for 3 years! April 7 marked our 3rd anniversary :)

We were supposed to go to Spokane for an anniversary weekend (with Brookey) but at the last minute my mom got off work to go see my sister in Utah. Kale encouraged me to go, since he had been working a lot but that canceled our Spokane trip. Instead we had a quiet night at home since it turned out that Brooke and I were both sick. We ordered in some BP's, and just hung out with out daughter. Since Brooke and I had been gone for the last week, it was really nice to do that together :)

3 years has gone by so incredibly fast. There have been ups & downs, but so much has happened in 3 years! We moved from Calgary to Edmonton to Cranbrook. We bought a car. We have taken trips. We have had a baby. We have bought a house. Life is progressing.

There are times when I can't believe I am where I am in my life. I can't believe I am old enough to be here. Time has flown by!

I thought i'd post some pictures of our wedding day. I love to look through them. They make me smile :)

Happy Anniversary Kale!

Baby Trim?

What do you think about my little new baby Baby Trim?
MakeMeBabies.com - What will your baby look like?

Haha - my baby girl looks nothing like this! She's white as can be. Although I think as a little girl my hair resembled this girls hair. Anyways, maybe the next one will come out looking like this...
