It is a crumby day out side 40+ days of snow on the ground would make anyone go insane! WE are finally settling in our house on Mossman, Ken keeps wondering why everything that he had before has to be moved and changed around. I told him welcome to married life honey, it looks much better where I have it anyways; )
We we returned from our amazing honeymoon in the Caribbean we had our 14 week appt. Ken was unable to make it yet again because of his busy work schedule...but I was able to hear that little heartbeat for the first time which brought instant tears to my eyes 159 and going strong. Our next appointment is scheduled for the 22nd and if all goes well and the baby cooperates we will be sharing the news of a baby girl or a baby boy! We have plenty of bets going with family and friends. I am thinking about printing up shirts that say "TEAM KEN" in pink or "TEAM KASSI" in blue. Either way seeing a healthy baby will be the most rewarding.
Our honeymoon was more then I could have ever imagined. The beach the water the service was something that we will never forget. We lounged and swam and snorkeled, zip lined through a rain forest and wen to a walk in volcano (which was actually the worlds stinkiest hill). The food was amazing and we tried everything. Even something which I thought was "steak strips"...well after I gulped mine down the flavor if it was drown out by the garlic did I realized that I had just eaten something TERRIBLE! Kenn picked up his "steak stripes" and there was hair growing out of it...he took a deep breath and popped it in to his mouth. I could tell by the look on his face he was using every muscle in his body to chew that thing up and swallow it! For the rest of the meal all I could think about was this thing in my belly and I was not feeling to hot. SO after that meal I was really ready for a Wendy's burger or McDonald's!
We met a ton of other couples that had been married on 1/09/10 so it was fun to talk with them about where they were from and their weddings. We also ran saw Clay Aiken thats right Clay and his boyfriend were at the airport when we were leaving St. Lucia. He even asked Ken what flight we were on...Ken not so much impressed I on the other hand was so excited. I had gotten a picture with Brian Boytono when I was in the 5th grads so I thought it would be fitting to have one with Clay but...I decided not to and to just paparazzi it!
After our 22 hours of traveling we made it back to little old Billings and I could never imagine having grown up some place else. There really is "No place like home" close to family and friends is the best thing and feeling in the world.
With the wedding chapter closed a the baby chapter open we are ready to dive into phase II of our relationship. I think Ken is going to pull out is hair with how much this baby is gonna cost him but I know he is just teasing. He even told me I could get a Pottery Barn crib...ha even I can't swallow a $1,000 crib!
I will be updating you all with nursery pictures soon (maybe a clothed belly shot if I am feeling skinny: ))
