Baby Burgoyne!

I can't believe I'm already 15 weeks pregnant! Our baby is the size of a navel orange, 4.0 inches long and weighs 2.5 oz! Next week we are going to a 3D ultrasound to find out the gender of baby B! We are super excited and hope that he/she cooperates! I have no feeling either way, lots of people say boy and lots of people say girl so we will just have to see! We found out in November that we were going to be parents, what an amazing feeling to know that you and the one you love created something that's yours. I remember the day we found out, we were speechless and didn't think it was possible. I found out a little after we got married that I had PCOS, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. It wasn't to the point where I had cysts on my ovaries but had to be put on medicine. I wasn't too worried but I knew that it would take us longer than usual when we wanted to get pregnant. After being on my medicine for 8 months we found out that we were pregnant it was a very emotional and exciting moment. We knew that there is a right time for everything and it was finally our time! I am very very fortunate that I've only been sick a few times this pregnancy, being in the second trimester I feel alot less tired and I don't want to eat everything in sight anymore! Here is a picture of Baby B when we had our first Ultrasound!
 We got to see and hear our baby's heart beat at our first Ultrasound it was so amazing that something so small already had a heart beat and could move around. I cant wait to see our baby next week and see how much he/she has grown since the first ultrasound. We have been working on the baby's nursery we chose gray, white and black and when we find out the gender we will put a color in with that probably purple or blue! We did all the walls gray and one of the walls we did chevron! Well my husband did chevron! :)
We were very excited when we found an $8 entertainment center from goodwill that we decided to turn into a changing table! (gotta love pinterest) My very talented husband turned it into the most beautiful changing table ever! Here is the before and after! 
We were so excited when we found out that a friend was giving her crib and mattress away! Here is the before and after, we sprayed it black! I cant wait to pick out the bedding! 
My mom had a rocking chair that she let us have that we painted white and we are going to recover the cushions! 
We still have alot that we need to do, but I am super happy with what we have already gotten done! Once we find out what our little peanut is we can get alot more done! We are really excited to become parents and we cant wait to meet baby b in July!!

Christmas in Cali!

We were able to fly to California for Christmas this year to be with Brennens family! We left late Monday the 22 and got to California around 1 in the morning. What a long and tiring flight we had! The next day we had to finish some last minute Christmas shopping. The weather was amazing in the 70's that day! The sun was shining and we were happy to be in California! 
I love all the different sizes of palm trees out there! Tall and skinny short and fat I love them all! Palm trees are my favorite! 
The next day was Christmas Eve and we were able to go to Disney Land! We had so much fun even though we couldn't ride the crazy rides this time! We got to watch a Christmas parade that evening! 
We even got our picture taken with Mickey Mouse! 
We were tired after a long day of walking around! The next day was Christmas! 
We took it easy that day being lazy! What else do you do on Christmas Day? We got so many good gifts and I got some great pregnancy goodies! 
Later that evening we went to the Mission Inn where we stayed for our honeymoon one night! They always decorate it for Christmas! It was beautiful! 
The next day we traveled to San Diego where we were married! We went to the beach and we were able to stop by the temple! 



We were able to meet up with 2 close friends of Brennens while we were out visiting! We went to lunch with Mike and Jackie and later that day we took a trip to Newport Beach we stopped by the temple! 
We went to church on Sunday at Brennens home ward. It was nice seeing everyone. Of course while we were out in California we had to eat at In-N-out! 

Our time in California was slowing coming to an end. We took it easy monday and Tuesday we went to Oak Glen with Brennens friend Darin. It was so cold up in the mountains that day. 
Later that night it was time for us to leave California. We had such a fun time being out there for Christmas! We got home early Wednesday morning. We were definitely tired! I think we're still trying to catch up on sleep! Needless to say we had an amazing trip and we can't wait to go out there again!
