Life

Sorry this post may be boring for some of you. I have decided to blog for journaling purposes also. So there will be a lot more fluff and things that you might not really care about.

------------------------------------------------------------

I have no clue where August has gone, summer too. We have been so busy with our jobs. Cody has been gone for days at a time in Wisconsin doing training for work. I always think I'm going to be so lonely but the time sure does fly by and it seems like he is home the next day.
I was super super busy at work. Double booked all day. Which I normally would love but with still being sick from the pregnancy it was tough. I have slowed down since school started and I am not complaining at all.
We just finished getting the salon put in the house:) It looks awesome!! I couldn't ask for anything more. So I am starting to advertise around town to get some business at home. I will post pics soon.
We have a new nephew who is here!!! Alexander Berry was born yestarday afternoon. Jennifer my sister is now a proud mother of 4 beautiful kids. I can not wait to meet this little guy. She shared lots of detail of the labor with me. She did this one all natural!! Which I have really wanted to do but I may be having some second thoughts. I am glad I had a sister to fill me in on all the pregnancy info I need to know.
Here are some pics of the past few weeks....

Pregnancy blog

I have started a pregnancy blog to keep track of everything during my pregnancy. I mostly am just keeping it for my little journal of my pregnancy experience. I didn't think everyone really wants to read about me all the time on our usual blog. The site is http://karapregnant.blogspot.com/ if any of you are interested in reading. ( I apologize for having pics of my stomach all over, but I want to keep track of how much it is growing. )

Best Friends



This weekend my really good friend Tami came out to Colorado to visit. It was so fun!! We did a lot of shopping and were able to catch up on everything.
We have been friends for as long as I can remember. She is like family to me. We have watched each other grow up. I could say she knows me better than I know myself sometimes. Im lucky to have such a great friend.

Time flies...

I stayed up thinking last night, how time goes by so fast. Things are changing so much. I realized I graduated high school only 3 years ago. That makes me feel so young:) I have grown up so much sense that day.

After graduation I took off and did wild land firefighting for the summer, then went straight to hair school after that. I loved the college life and meeting so many new people. I dated a lot of boys and then Cody came into my life. He was perfect for me. We dated throughout the year and got married June of 2008, moved to Colorado in November. And started with our careers.
We bought our first house this summer and now we are going to be parents in March.
That is a lot of things to happen in 3 small years! I cant believe how fast my life is going by and things are changing. Im exited to see what the next 3 years are going to bring.

WE ARE HAVING BABY!!!

Cody and I are going to be parents!! We found out 6 weeks ago and I have been dying to tell the hole world. The first ultrasound apt was yesterday and the doctor gave me the go ahead to start sharing the good news. The baby is healthy and growing fast:) My first due date was the 9th of March but he chanced it to the 16th. (I think there should be a rule on not being aloud to do that).
I am so happy to finally be pregnant. It was a much longer process than we had anticipated. I figured the day that Cody and I both felt if was time to start our family and I went off birth control I would be pregnant. Thats not always how if works. And I know God sends you the little ones when its the right time and I will have to just be patient.
It feels good finally announce this and I will keep you updated on what life is like for us if I can find the energy which has all been going to the baby.

Before and after Bedroom

Before
After

One more room down, four to go! We have been doing a lot of work on the house. We attempted to put this really cute paneling up in our bedroom but after 5 hours and no success we gave up. So I painted instead. I got the idea from the site "allthingsthrifty.com". They have great ideas. I am still on the look out for a new night stand to replace the white one.
