Shiloh, School, and other Shenanigans


We are expecting a baby! I am pregnant with a little girl, Shiloh Brook, due the first week of July. We are so excited to be parents, and we are so blessed to be able to have our first baby so soon after our wedding! 

Because I am so late posting this, here is a quick pregnancy update so far. We found out that I was pregnant at the end of October. I had really bad morning sickness up until the beginning of January, but I have been doing pretty well since then. I am still very tired all the time, but doing well. My hair is growing super fast! I love it. I first felt Shiloh moving at the end of January, and we got to have our ultrasound on February 6th.

Derrik was able to feel Shiloh kicking just this past week. She is kicking all the time now! I feel her kicking several times a minute whenever I am sitting or laying down. It's really cute, and also pretty uncomfortable. Hopefully I'll get used to the feeling!

We are planning on moving once the semester ends. We love our little studio apartment, but we don't have enough room to add another person! We haven't found a new place yet, but I am hoping that we will soon.

Derrik has been coaching my little brother's basketball team for the last couple of months with my Dad. It is a lot of fun to watch the three of them, although between his games, and Derrik's intramural and church ball games I have been watching a LOT of Basketball.

We went hiking/exploring with my family on Valentine's weekend.


My sister is getting married! My little sister Caroline got engaged a few weeks ago, so we are looking forward to her wedding. I will be 37.5 weeks pregnant, so that should be awfully exciting. 

I went back to school online in January through BYU-Idaho to finish my Bachelors, and I changed my major to Business. I am still working at DoxTek and teaching piano at nights. Derrik is going to school, coaching Basketball, and teaching sports to 3 and 4 year-olds at the Rec Center. We are very busy, but life is good!
