An Amazing Experience

On Friday, Cory and I had the most miraculous experience. We got to listen to our baby's heartbeat! Yes, I'm pregnant!!

It was so amazing! At first our midwife couldn't find it. She about gave up. I think she realized I was on the verge of bursting out in tears when she told me it was too early. So, she tried for a few more minutes and finally found it.

We were relieved. There really is a tiny little baby in there! Baby Simons is due in December!!! And we cannot wait!

two years.

Monday was our two year anniversary. I know that is not very long. But I honestly cannot believe we have been married for two years already! The time has flown by. We had a great anniversary. Cory didn't have to study too much. We had time to watch a movie together and get some take-out. It was nice to just sit at home and enjoy each others company. Earlier that day I walked to Wal-Mart so I could surprise Cory with something. He always has the car these days so it's hard for me to sneak away. I think celebrations are always more fun when there are surprises involved. He loved it and was impressed I walked there. Even though it is only a 5 minute walk.

But Cory got me the perfect gift. A wedding band for my ring. It was a big surprise! I'm officially married now. I love it! I feel just like I did after we were engaged. I always want to wear them and look at them! They are so pretty together. He did a great job! I love him so much. I'm happy we get to spend eternity together. We have been having a great life and I love every second of it.




On a side note, I love Ben & Jerry's. Many people know this about me. My favorite flavor is Chocolate Therapy. Today at the grocery store I happened to look at the flavors of B&J they had, which I don't usually do because the store never carries any good flavors. But I saw something that caught my eye.

THIS.
It looked yummy. And it tasted DELICIOUS! My chocolate therapy has a new rival. I encourage all to devour some for themselves.

April Craft

I was going to post this with my May craft but I haven't got around to finishing it yet.
But I really love this wreath I made for Easter.
I found it HERE.
Cory helped me quite a bit with this one. I had a hard time wrapping those eggs at first. And of course, Cory was better at it than me. No surprise there. Once I got the hang of it, I took over. 
This project took me FOREVER though! Good thing I had a lot of free time on my hands or I would not have finished it.


At first I wasn't so sure I liked how it turned out. But now I love it! It's about time to take it down, which makes me sad. I can't wait to put it up next year!
