12 Weeks

Yes...it's true!

We are expecting!!

I took 3 pregnancy tests after I was a week and 1/2 late from my "time of the month" and they all came back positive. (Btw - Pregnancy tests from the dollar store work just fine... here is the proof)

This girl doesn't even know what's coming yet... her world is about to change!

Spencer got really excited and bought his dream stroller... The BOB

He got home from work and school one night and decided to put it together! He was pretty excited!

And of course Sophie had to play in the box it came in...

California Bound

I'm a little late posting this but over Spring Break we drove down to California to visit Spencer's aunts. We've been married for almost 5 years now and were finally getting down there to see them! 

The first 2 days of our trip, we spent with Spencer's aunt Jocelyn. On the first day, we rented bikes and rode them around Balboa Island

We stopped at got frozen banana's dipped in chocolate. Yum!

At "The Wedge"

Spencer's aunt Jocelyn lives in Placentia, CA and when we left her house, it was close to 80 degree's. As soon as we got close to the ocean, the temperature dropped to somewhere in the 60's. I was freezing the whole time, but we still had fun!

The next day, Spencer's uncle Kris told us to eat at this restaurant called Slater's 50/50. The burgers are 50% bacon and 50% hamburger!

The hamburger was huge, but delicious!

I ordered a salad because I was trying to be healthy

Later that evening, we went to an outdoor shopping mall called The Spectrum! The weather was gorgeous and I had fun shopping.

The tail end of our trip was visiting Spencer's other aunt that lives in Camarillo, CA. She took us hiking up this sand dune where we watched the dolphins swimming in the ocean below.

Climbing this sand dune was a work out! It's literally straight up and hiking in sand only.

After we hiked the sand dune, DeAnna took us to eat breakfast at the airport. There's a small airport near her house and we got to watch small planes land and take off while enjoying our delicious breakfast!

This is not something you see in Utah... DeAnna has a lemon tree/bush in her front yard and the lemons were huge!

There are bunches of strawberry fields everywhere and you can stop and buy cases of strawberries at the stands off the side of the road. The strawberries were the biggest, juiciest, yummiest I had ever tasted or seen!

Our last day, we celebrated Spencer's Uncle Dean's birthday at a restaurant in Marina Del Ray called "Killer Shrimp" on the pier. Unfortunately, this was the best picture I got, but we ate some pretty amazing shrimp!

After we ate the shrimp, Spencer and I decided to head home. This was the traffic at 9:00 at night in LA. The traffic in California is so annoying! 

 Thanks again to Spencer's aunts for their hospitality and showing us around. We had a lot of fun!
