Back from Hibernation

I have avoided blogging for the last few months. It just seemed too hard, I know, sounds pathetic but I felt like if I just boycotted it for a while, it was one less thing for me to do. So I'm back and I'm going to try to be a little more consistent. I have been struggling to find energy and feel good.
So... I'm pregnant. Some of you probably already know this. But we are expecting and IT'S A GIRL! Taylor has had her little prayer answered. I am relieved, her little heart was so set on having a little sister, I wasn't sure how she'd take the disappointment. Luckily we didn't have to go down that road. I am just grateful I have a healthy growing baby inside of me. So between pregnancy and the doctors trying to get my thyroid medication right, I've been really tired, down and drained the last few months. I think I'm starting to feel myself. I'm still concidered having hypothyroidism but since my dr. increased my meds last time around I think it might finally be right. (I got my thyroid removed in Feb. before the move and they have to slowly find the right dosage, so it's been interesting.)
This summer has been nice. The weather couldn't be more perfect. People around here complain about the heat, but we think they're crazy. Upper 80's during the day and it cools down at night. We have loved it. We have had a relaxing summer of going to the pool for Taylor's swim team, hitting the beach, library, movies, and going to Utah and Seattle for little vacations.
We went up to Provo for the 4th of July Stadium of Fire and to see my sister, Sarah and her family. Miley Cyrus was the headliner for the event, with Glenn Beck (aka, my secret boyfriend) as the MC, so it was a must for us. Eric's brother, Curt got married in Seattle so we all flew up there and enjoyed the wedding and the beautiful city for five days.
Taylor starts first grade next week and Brent is keeping me busy, being my little mischevious two and a half year old.
