It has been a little bit since I blogged, but I just wanted to update everyone on a few things real quick! First of all my sister Lisa got second place with some close votes for the Baby Bump contest. She won $200 and every little bit helps, so thank you for voting for her!
Jason spent last week in Vegas for a work convention, and he had a great time and got to do a lot and meet a lot of people. He really enjoys his job!
I went in for my 12 week appointment last week and got to hear our little strawberries (more like an apple now...)heart beat. I'm still really sick but am hopeful that I will be getting over it! My pants are just starting to feel a little uncomfortable, but I'm sure I won't be showing for another couple months.
We are doing a lot of planning and are in the works of moving, so I will update you on that a little later when I have time.
My work is going good and I love everyone I work with and am so happy I'm at the salon im at. I still haven't told everyone there that I'm pregnant.
we're still working hard on supporting prop 8. I wish I had more time to help out!
We are planning for upcoming vacations as well. I can't wait for Hawaii in november so we can just relax! cause believe you me... I need to relax!

more thoughts....
I've just been feeling very overwhelmed this week, I have been learning a lot and I have been realizing the need of help for the people around me. I'm starting to understand more of the reasons why Jason and I are living where we are living and why we are faced with the challenges that we have been faced with. I hope to get a lot done this week while Jason is on a business trip in Vegas with his work. He leaves tomorrow and won't be back til Friday. It will be lonely sleeping alone at night but I think every time we get a break from each other it only brings us closer together and I feel like it is so important to have time away from your spouse. (not too much tho. :)) It gives each of us time to ourselves and to be able to recoup from a stressful week and not have to worry about each other. I guess it's kind of a time to be selfish. :)
I have my 12 week appointment this week so I will update you later this week. Also I got out for the first time in a long time on Saturday. Jason and I went to dinner with my cousin Jamie and her husband and son Johnny and Jamie's sister in-law Kristine. It was good to get out and I was glad to have made it through dinner without throwing up! I really don't like going out to eat since I've been so sick!

Thoughts....voting....life....
This is the time that I wish I still lived in Utah where most people agree with and have the same views as me. I've realized it's hard living around people who don't have the same views as you, because what you believe really does characterize who you are and what you do. It's hard to talk to people even in general anymore, because you don't want to offend anyone, but if someone says something you completely don't agree with you don't want to just sit there and not defend your opinion.
A lot of people I run into think I'm 19yrs old, which would be a compliment if I was thirty, I don't know what it is? the blond hair? the height? the clothes? all of the above? I wish I had a sign that said 22yrs old! I would stick it on my forehead! a lot of people think I'm too young to be married let alone being pregnant. But to me it's not about age but about responsibility, and attitude towards life, and maturity, Now I don't think everyone should get married at 19 and have there first kid at 22 but for me it is perfect and I wouldn't have it any other way. I have grown so so much being married, I would probably be at the same point in my life with no growth if I never got married so young. I feel so blessed to have a husband with the same values and beliefs as me, who has the same goals and wants the same out of life as I do.
I am so thankful to have the knowledge of the Gospel as I do. Although not all questions are answered, I know the Truth and with a lot of guidance I know I will be judged rightfully in the end. I am sad (and can be angry sometimes) for the people who don't have the gospel in their life. and I hope they will all accept it in the end. I am sad to see so many people change their beliefs for worldly things. It's sad to see religions who base their doctrine and beliefs on the Bible but would teach their children that it is OK to have a relationship with the same sex. When it is CLEARLY stated in the BIBLE that marriage is between Man and Woman and that gay relationships is an abomination (or did they change that part of the bible too?) I just found out Brad Pitt donated 100,000 dollars to ANTI-proposition 8. I wish I was a celebrity and could donate 1,000x what we actually did donate FOR proposition 8 and that I would have a good influence on a lot of people. When did God not matter anymore? I for one will be teaching my children that marriage is between a man and a woman and if they chose (because they can chose)to not believe that, then they can take that up with God, the one with the plan, the one that gave them the privilege of life.
As for politics and not moral values... I/We are pro-life, pro-traditional marriage, (still trying to figure out where we stand on the war) So with those 3 being our most important issues that we care about, we hope to make a good decision on who to vote for. Although regardless of who takes presidency we still plan on staying in the US and We think with all the government behind them, either or, will be a fine president! now if they would only stop bashing on each other and start talking more about where they stand on issues and what they are going to do, that would help us make our decision a lot easier! :)

SICK!
10 weeks today! I am still pretty sick. Hopefully I will be over this in 2 weeks when my first trimester is over. It's crazy to think in April we are gonna have a little Jason (or kristen) head, that we are responsible for. But I am so happy we have 6 1/2 more months to plan, cause we definitely need it! We have so much to plan for and do before this baby gets here! We haven't been doing a whole lot, and it's been killing Jason. He always wants to go out but I can not find the energy or enthusiasm to want to. So this weekend we stayed in and finished watching the 4Th season of The Office. I already can't wait to start the next season.
We find out the sex of the baby November 10Th so we will keep you posted. We have been trying to keep up with this election and hope to make a wise decision on president this time around. There is a lot of studying that goes into making a good decision and there is so many other things we vote for in November so I hope everyone is studying up on it, and make good decisions. VOTE NOVEMBER 4TH 2008!
Also the proposition we have been mostly concerned with this time around for California is Proposition 8, protecting traditional marriage. It is something jason and I feel strongly about and you can read more on it at http://www.protectmarriage.org if your interested. It's a proposition in California that I hope gets lots of Yes' on.
Sorry no pics this time....

*~WE'RE EXPECTING~*
We're Pregnant with our first baby, and I can finally tell everyone! We have known since the beginning of August but wanted to wait til our first doctors appointment to make sure the baby is growing and everything is good to go. I'm 9weeks and 1day, our due date is APRIL 12TH 2009. It's still early to get too excited but we are both thrilled and definitely preparing to be parents.
I have been really sick and can not wait for this first trimester to be over!!! I think Jason can't wait for it to be over either! He's been being such a great husband catering to my every need. and being the main cook in the house. I haven't been able to make any food cause it makes me want to throw up! And any type of Meat is out of the picture! I can't even think about it without being sick!
So shout out all your advice, you Mommy's out there! What do you wish you would have known or wish your would have done while you were pregnant with your first child?
It was so cool to see our baby's heart beat on the monitor, it made it more of a reality for us! Although no one warned us that our first ultrasound wasn't going to be with a belly camera.... We are excited our little "Strawberry" is growing. "Strawberry" already has arms and legs and muscles and eyes and is losing it's tail and it's internal reproductive features are forming this week, although we won't be able to find out the sex for another 7 weeks, it's still exciting to think that "Strawberry" is already male or female...we are hoping male!

City Salon first week
I Love Love, my new salon. All the girls there are so great! I really lucked out with such a good salon. My first week went really good, hopefully it just goes up hill from here! I'm just trying to focus on building my clientele and I am selling Hair extensions and doing classes on the side. So I am definitely keeping myself busy.
Jason was able to spend a couple days in San Diego with his work this last week. He enjoyed learning about new products and being able to get to know the people he works with more.
Now that I work Saturdays again, Jason doesn't have anyone to go to the beach with so he can go surfing. I'm sure he'll find some guys at work that will be up to it tho.
We are still loving so cal life so much and hoping to move a little more south to Huntington beach in November. that way we will be closer to my work, where I can walk and we won't have to get a 2nd car. We are still driving Jason's '92 Honda Civic, which is such a blessing and such a great little car. We never have problems with it, and we are hoping it stays that way!
