I Felt Bad, I didn't know "THEY" had a plan

As I sit at work today, I thought to myself...Hey Katie had her birthday on Sunday...I might as well check out the family blog's to see the sappy happy bday posts!!!! I was really excited to be able to make fun of whatever my Mother or Sister wrote....err I mean read how special Katie is to them =)

As to my surprise, neither my mother or my sister had made a post......I started to feel bad for Katie..............and even though my intention was for evil....I now, more than ever wanted to see the sappy posts.

I sent a couple of text messages off trying to save boomer and mom from the tears that Katie would have if she noticed that she did NOT get her sappy bday post.

Well it turns out they were only going to do those posts for a Year......and they started with Katie.......So JOKES ON ME SUCKER.......

The Legend, He’s Getting STRONGER!

You might think this post is about this legend. ITS NOT

it’s about the one below….Our legend!!!!!!!

Today we went in for our 20 week ultrasound, and I am so very thankful that we have a healthy baby boy on the way. It was soooooo amazing, after all we have been through to actually see our little dude jumping around and intercepting balls from Max Hall

Jess and I are so blessed to have this opportunity, and I am very thankful that things are going so well during this pregnancy. It seems like we both have wanted this for so long, and everything just feels so surreal at this point. I can’t wait to be able to hold him in my arms and take him home!

The legend is so blessed to have Jess as a mother, I know she is very strong….she has been through A LOT. She is going to be the best mother to him, and will be there every step of the way. It’s so great to see how happy she is, and excited at the same time!

I want to thank our Heavenly Father for the most amazing blessing we have ever received!!!! What a miracle the Legend is!!!!! I want to also thank my parents and my in-laws for all the support/continued support they have given Jess and I over the years. There have also been the countless amounts of people that were there for Jess or myself just to “listen”, its amazing how helpful that can be when life feels likes its never going to go your way…..

One of these days we will have to move past calling him “The Legend” and actually figure out a name……My only problem is that every name I can think of is either a U of U football player, or someone from a Band. Yes I know I’m pathetic.

Please keep cheering on “The Legend”!!!!!! GO TEAM GINES!!!

The unexpected... here we go!!!!

Needless to say I think the picture says it all.

~~BABY ON THE WAY~~

Here's to almost 4 years of trying. Lots and lots of fertility drug. Many mood swing and menopause at 24 yrs old. 4 trips to the u of u, and starting the adoption process.

Best part we did this ALL ON OUR OWN.

I took the test at 2 in the morning on the 4th of July. Here is a picture of us on the forth of July after a night of no sleep and trying not to tell anyone. We told my parent when we were 7 weeks and told Adam's the day we left for Oregon i was 8 week at the time.

So here we are 13 WEEKS NOW!!!!

My lips cant be locked any longer. We are so excited, it still does not feel like reality. Adam has been so funny and great while i want to do nothing but sleep my days away. The Gines side of our family called the baby the legend. They all think its a boy and so does our Dr. we hope to find out at the end of the month but if not our big ultrasound is at the end of Oct.

Check out the new hobby

My mom, sister in law and I

Its all lead free and hand made. yes my hand did make this stuff we have been to a couple of show. we have done pretty well. So here is a glimpse at our fun stuff.

I saw this today, gave me a giggle. Thought I would share.

Susan G. Komen - Race for the Cure

Yesterday I joined 18 thousand of my friends for a great cause to support the fight against breast cancer.  It is very difficult to try and start running when 18 thousand people are packed into one city block, but it does show how many people support the cause, and it was a great experience.  Next Saturday Jess and I will be running for another great cause.  Please support the Brain Injury Association of Utah! My wife and I will be running for Charlie Cooper If he is not your reason, I'm sure you can find one! We will see you all next Saturday morning!!!

Don't ever give a 30 year old that does not have much to do a pink cape when he finishes a race.  He might get home and try to fly....... I am going to chalk this thought process up to the endorphins from the 5K
