This past Sunday was my older sister, Jen's birthday. She turned 25! I can't believe we are getting so old! It seems like we were just playing house and doing all those kind of little girl things! It is crazy. I am just glad that I get to see all of my siblings still (well other than our missionary, but that won't be for much longer). My sister Jen is such a sweet person and I can't wait for her to have her sweet baby girl this summer! She will be a great mom! Jen, I hope you had a wonderful birthday! Love you!
The next thing that I forgot to blog about is the fun family trip that we went on! We went to California with Brady's family. We rented a house that was right by the beach. We were there for about a week. It was so much fun! Brady's brother, Justin served his mission there in the Vietnamese area. It was so crazy to see how all of a sudden everything was in Vietnamese. All of the stores and restaurants in this area were Viet. It was great! It was so fun to see where Jubb (Justin) had spent his time while he was on his mission. We were able to go to church and it was fun to hear them speak that language. They remembered Jubb and were so excited to see him. They love him so much there! One crazy thing that happened while we were in Huntington Beach was Brady's dad got mugged. Well, they didn't actually get anything but he got hurt pretty bad. They smashed him in the head and put a really big gash. Luckily, Brady's dad was able to turn around a deck one of the guys and scared them away. It was really scary because he was all alone and when he came back we could tell he was freaked out and that he was in pain. He didn't go get stitches (even though he SHOULD have). But, he is doing well now and we were just so grateful that he was okay. From then on we used the buddy system at ALL times! It was so fun to spend some time with Brady's family. I think we all really enjoyed everything we did! There are pictures from the trip at the bottom of this post.
Finally, a quick update on the baby.... we went to the doctor on Monday. We got to hear the heartbeat. It was so neat to hear that! We got to see it the first time but to actually hear it is just incredible! Brady said after that he didn't realize how cool it would be. It was so fun to look over at Brady and see his big smile on his face. He is going to be such a wonderful dad! He has been such a trooper so far taking care of me and fending for himself when it comes to food. I am so glad that I have the most amazing husband to take care of me and comfort me when I need it. We also have the best, most supportive family and friends. They are so sweet! We love you all! Anyways, we go back to the doctor at the end of April and hopefully in the middle of May we will find out what we are having! It will be so exciting! So, that is the update for now! Sorry that was such a long post, but if you are still reading, I am proud of you!

Yay for you being prego!! I am so excited for you guys! Sounds like things are going great for you guys with the new house and baby!
Sounds like you head a great time in Cali minus the one incident! That is so scary!! As i was looking through your pictures we went to the Queen Mary ship to! But it was really late, we didn't even know it existed and while roaming around, trying not to get caught, we ran into the manager of the ship and begged him to take us to the coolest part of the ship. So he took us to the pool and said that it wasnt even open to the public....but based on your picture it looks like it is very much opened to the public! He was VERY drunk so that may have been the reason why he said that. He also offered us a ride on his private jet and a suite to stay in if we all gave him a massage he was a CrEaP! I was happy to hear update about little bun in the oven!! I am so happy for you!! You will have to give me some pointers on how you got to where you are now...Morgan needs some help:-D And your sister is having a girl! Ahhh exciting things! I bet your mom and dad are freaking out!! I am so happy for you! You and Brady are so deserving of this little one! Well sorry this comment is SOOOOOO long! I loved your post and all the pictures!! Hope you get feeling better!
