Quite the update:)

WOW! Where to begin?! Since the last post, we have had our 4 year anniversary, valentines day, and found out we are PREGNANT! I feel like that is my excuse for not keeping the blog updated... I have been beyond tired these days! Anyway I will start from the top.

I can't believe Jason and I have been married for 4 years already! Its gone by so fast! I love him so much and we have so much fun together, I can't imagine life without him! We have moved 3 times in 4 years and I think that trend will continue with Jason joining the army... well maybe not quite that much, but a good amount of moving around. Also in that time we have welcomed our precious Zoey girl into the world! I almost don't remember what my life was like before her! She is such a light in our lives! She makes almost anything fun, no matter where we are or what we are doing she brings a smile to our faces!

Since we are in Med school we try to live a pretty frugal life... meaning we have to be creative when it comes to birthdays, holidays, anniversary, etc... So for our anniversary we just had one of our favorite home cooked meals, talked about how crazy our 4 years have been, and then curled up on the couch to netflix! I love it! I love that the small and simple things can make us so happy! Who needs money! Same for valentines, it did not consist of roses or chocolates or a new outfit... Just spending time with my little family! Jason actually did take Zoey and I out to dinner that day, which was really sweet of him. It is amazing how much I have learned out here! I have had to learn how to budget, be creative with Zoey and find fun things for us to do, sacrifice sleep to find a time to workout (it isn't as easy to just go workout when I have no family around to help with Zoey), and find a hobby! I have been experimenting with sewing, mod podge, yarn wreaths, etc... I have great friends out here who are great with that stuff! They definitely teach me a lot!

On to the new baby! AHHH! I still can't believe it! We knew we wanted another baby close to Zoey, maybe 2 to 2 1/2 years apart. Well with Zoey it took about 7 months so we figured it would take a little while for the next... WRONG! With this one, we basically thought about another baby and poof- we're pregnant again! So we are due October 11, which would make Zoey and this next baby 21 months apart. Close enough to what we thought:) I am just really grateful we are able to have another baby! I just had my first doctors appt. monday and everything was great! We saw our little baby and its strong heartbeat! Now for the long journey to October! Wish me luck:)

Next thing on our agenda is spring break! Jason has three sets of hard tests and then we can relax for 9 days straight! We are heading to North Carolina for a few days, then meeting Jason's family in Charleston SC, Hilton head, and Savanna Georgia! I am sure this trip will consist of LOTS of golf, swimming, window shopping, and relaxing! yay! I am glad the Hyde's are making the trip out! It will be so fun to see them! Jason doesn't get to go back to Utah for the summer/Riley's wedding so it will be really good for him to see his family! Also Lindsey and Chris are making the long drive from Columbia, Missouri to meet up with us too! So excited to see everyone! Hope everyone is doing well! I will try a little harder to keep this up to date:)
