The Ultrasound

On Friday we had our ultrasound. The baby moved around a bit and we got some good pictures and a little movie clip. It was pretty obvious even to our unskilled eyes that it's a boy! I also measured 19 weeks which moved my due date up 4 days to May 9. I'm supposed to walk for graduation May 6th so we'll see how that goes...
We're excited!!!

I Love Craigslist!

I just got a whole new wardrobe for $40. Everything you see in this picture is from an ad on Craigslist from a girl in St. George. There are 6 long sleeve shirts (one is a sweater), 7 shirts, two pants, one pair of capris, and one pair of shorts (there were three but I can't wear two of them). The pants are great - they are comfortable and are really nice. Most of the shirts I won't wear for a few more months but it is nice to have a variety. It's weird to see the size be a small and the shirt to be three feet wide. :) Not a bad deal huh? I just wish more people down here would get on the Craigslist bandwagon.
Chris and I drove down to Vegas last Sunday for the afternoon/evening to see my friend Jess who was passing through. We've been friends since I was 16. She's in the army now and was on her way to Arizona from CA for training. I hadn't seen her since my wedding so it was awesome. We went to a dog park for Murphy (it was SOOOOO awesome!) and then went to watch the Bellagio fountains. I think I could watch those all day. It's absolutely beautiful. I think I'm so fascinated by them because never in a million years could I be that creative. Murphy freaked out at the loud noises from the fountains though so Chris had to take her away. Her heart was pounding so hard. It was sensory overload, as Chris put it. It was better than being stuck at home by herself all those hours though. And the dog park was a really good experience.

Trail Close(d)

We took a hike a few weeks ago. It was only 1.23 miles TOTAL so Chris says you can't even call it a hike. But it got us out of the house for the morning. And Murphy got to go with us!
It was beautiful scenary, as is most of southern Utah.
There was a small waterfall at the end that is bigger at other times of the year. Chris climbed over to it and went into the little cave but I stayed on the lookout ledge.This was at the beginning of the trail but we, um, disregarded it. There were two other people on the trail and they said there had been some rock slides and other trail damage but it wasn't bad.
