Baby news!

I am going to be an aunt! I cant believe Kurt is going to be a daddy... He is so wonderful with Kylie I know he is going to have so much fun as a father. The other week Conrad was going down to Utah for work and Kurt calls and says, "Why don't you and Kylie come to!?" and I was kind of unsure... A: because I hate sleeping by myself and B: because I had Twilight tickets:) So he could sense my hesitation and he throws in, "Just send Kylie down with Conrad and I'll watch her this weekend":)

Well, we all ended up going down and having a great time, and Kelsey was there too! Kurt took Ky so we could go to the BYU v Utah game (I'm tearing up just writing that:). Kylies keeps going around the house and saying, "I'm going to have a baby, and Kurt is going to have a baby!" (that first part is not true) ha.

Anyway I am so grateful for Kurt and Jen and I love them both so much and I know Jen is going to be an exceptional mother. She is one of the kindest and most thoughtful people I know. Kurt is so tender hearted and understanding and I am thankful for the friendship that we have always had. Its interesting how life changes. And even though our relationship has changed since we have both gotten married, we have and will always have a friendship that I will always be grateful for.



I remember...



When I ran for ASB Pres. and lost and the winner said something rude to me, Kurt slammed him into a locker:) don't mess with me.. lol



When I told him I was getting married and he cried because he was so happy for me...



When I had Kylie, He and Jen came up twice in 2 weeks to be with us...



When he left for his mission I had never cried so much in my entire life...



When we were really young there was a boy down the street that was really poor and didn't have a bike, so Kurt started walking his new bike down the road to give it to him...



When He came up from college to watch me be on homecoming court...



When He saved me from falling off the Y mountain!



I love you Kurt and am so proud of you!

Come on in!
























Drum roll please... Jamie finally is getting it together! Here are some, much anticipated, pictures of our new home. Here is Kylies room (the only room 100% done:)... I refinished the vanity and reupholstered the seat and valance. Conrad installed the chandelier, but Ky wants to trade Kelsey for her "super cool" black one:)






































Here is her own little magnet board where she keeps pictures of "her" prophet, Jesus and Bapa!








This whole process has been a blast for Conrad and I to mesh our ideas together and come up with our own style. Here is a preview of how it all went down...:) I picked the gray for the walls, kind of scary to paint your living room a shade up from black, but none the less it is perfect... Conrad thought up the art... He also found the couch, after weeks of searching every furniture store in Utah and Idaho, everything is the same here! My amazing husband picked the dinning table out! All by himself and I love it!!! I did the paintings in the dinning room (We are going for a anthropology look:) Then there is the fur chair (the picture doesn't do it justice). I think I am in love with it but maybe just because it is Christmas I just laugh every time I see it because it reminds me of Santa! Conrad always jokes that we should put a red hat on it and a Santa face:) Then our bedroom, office and basement we haven't touched... next years project:)
