10 weeks left, crazy!!

Hello blogging world...lol!

As you can tell from the title I am 30 weeks along (and one day now) in this pregnancy! I cant believe that I have just about 10 weeks until I get to meet our little man! oh my I cant wait but that also means I have lots to stress about, we still have so much to get!! haha we have it all picked up its just a matter of going and getting it now, good thing I still have 10 weeks left to do that. He has become quite the kicker and stretcher. I absolutely love feeling him move...most of the time. When he decides to stretch into my ribs while I am trying to work it makes it a little difficult or when he head butts my ribs, I sometimes want to complain..lol! Jason and Kyler have come up with how to play tag through my stomach, its kinda funny. aw, Jason is just going to be the cutest dad! We start our birthing classes next week, which shall be entertaining! My baby shower is going to be in a few weeks, I'm quite excited for that! I hope that I get to see a lot of people that I havent seen for awhile, showers are my time to see people again! So hopefully i'll see some of you! Now for the classic baby bump picture (how I have slacked at taking these...oops!) Here I am in my 30 weeks of glory (excuse the look of a LONG day)
and of course Jason thought we needed a close up the belly with our little boy in it!!

Life has been keeping us busy otherwise. School started this week, so now we have even less time together :( which depresses me but we make do. Jason is going to school full time, just trying to finish up his generals and get into the business program. I am taking 2 online classes through USU which seem like they will be fun. Hopefully I can stay caught up once Kyler makes his presence. My other big project is I am taking a medical transcriptioning course. My goal is to be done with that course before he comes which is a hefty goal, so just a warning I may not be blogging much, I am trying to focus on that! So far its been good. Jason is still working at walmart (which is busy with all the students back in town) and he's doing lawn spraying until october. So he is super busy. I am working away still at impact. got to love it!

I'm really excited about a really sweet purchase I got recently so i'm going to tell you all about it! Jaci has some mad skill, you can all go check out her creations here. I have been drooling over her hats for monthes, so I finally convinced Jason to let me get some (it is probably a good thing I am having a boy because I probably would have bought oodles of hats for a little girl no matter what jason said :O) Anyway I love Kyler's new hat, I cant wait to see how cute he looks in it. I got Elsa the blue one to keep her head warm in chicago and then I bought myself the black and red one. I am actually looking forward to cooler weather so that I can wear mine! Anyway really go check out her site all of her hats are adorable, I had the hardest time making a decision on which to have!

The last big news of this blog, is like major news and I cant believe its already here!! One year ago this saturday, I spent my day like this......
okay that picture was really taken a few weeks before but you get the picture!

We had so many family and friends that came to celebrate with us!

but the only person I was focused on that day was my best friend!!

He is just the most amazing person ever!! and yes we owe it all to Wendy's, no wonder it is the most common place for us to go out to eat!
I seriously cannot believe that it has been a year since we got married (and whoever would have thought that i'd be 7 months pregnant on our one year anniversary :O). This past year has been absolutely amazing! Jason s truly the most amazing person that I have met and he lights up my life! I honestly cannot imagine my life without him and I cannot wait for the many more anniversaries we'll have together! I love you so much dear!!!!!!!!!! <3 :)

Anyway sorry about all the mushiness....that's about it for us here!! We're keeping busy and loving life together!! Hope you all have a wonderful day, week, month...until I post again!! back to studying i go.....

we now have no internet....

We now have no internet at our place so updates are hard to do. We do want to get internet so if any of you have any suggestions on where we should get it from please let us know!
Anyway quick update since borders in closing in like 10 minutes...agh!
Over pioneer day weekend we went to Jackson hole with my family. It was a lot of fun, I did a lot of relaxing and Jason did a lot! He went horseriding with my family, then we all went to the hot springs, (which were in no way hot so I got to enjoy them too!!). The next day everyone went white water rafting while I walked around Jackson, then we all went and saw Annie got her gun, which was a hilarious show. The next day we headed home. It was fun and nice to spend time with everyone! (yes we failed no pictures!)
July 28th my little sister left to serve the Lord in The North chicago mission. She's in the mtc for the next couple of monthes learning spanish but i'm so proud of her and i know she'll do great.
The last weekend in July we went to Colorado with Jason's family to see his cousin's wedding. It was a fun trip but way too short. It was great to see everyone, especially Chris Raylene and Duncan. I wish we lived closer and that we could see them more!!
Other than that we've just been working and staying busy. trying to spend as much time together before our little guy comes!
Last week I went to a glitter toes so I just want to show off my toes since I never get them done! I think they are way cute and I hope they last the 6-8 weeks like they say. I already told Jason I want them done again before I have our baby!
Speaking of our guy, he is growing big! We have been failing at getting pictures of my growing belly lately...slackers I know. I took a quick picture today, sorry that its just my belly but its hard to take a picture of my face and belly by myself. I'll have to have Jason take a picture soon! So here I am almost 27 weeks (tomorrow), can you believe next week I'll be in the 3rd trimester!
We bought our first big purchase for the baby...his carseat! We think its way cute but we have so much more to get before he comes, good thing we have 3 monthes but we so need to get going! This carseat had all the nifty updates that we wanted and more, yay!


And since i've been promising, a quick tour of our new place...the front, notice jason's eagle that he is so proud of!
Our living room, look at my new comfy chair jason got me, I love it!
our HUGE kitchen!
And this is Kyler's room....oh we have so much to do but surprisingly this is a huge update from a few weeks ago!

And i'm getting kicked out...sorry its short, hopefully i'll be able to write more later! Loves!

I should probably update...

I know that I just posted but I figured I should actually do an update. We are good just keeping busy, as always.
Jason has been working both jobs this summer so he works every day, which really sucks because I barely see him but I see him more than some wives see their husbands so I'm thankful for that.
Last week I got to watch a cute baby boy twice. He was so fun to play with and to hold, I cannot wait for Kyler to be here. Kyler wasnt too sure about me paying attention to another baby, he was kicking a lot when I would hold the baby. Maybe the remember each other from before or they are just getting ready to be good friends, I hope so!
Its been great to have the sun finally out, and I think today I got my first sunburn! Thank goodness it wasnt too bad. We havent had too much of a chance to enjoy the sun but hopefully one day this summer we can both manage to get off and spend time together just us.
We had a fun patriotic weekend. Saturday morning we went to a scout breakfast, lots of good food and we both walked away stuffed. Jason had to work that night but I went to the cruise in parade with my family. We had a bbq and it was fun to watch all the cool cars go past. Yesterday we finally made it to our new ward (haha yes we have lived here for a month and that was the first time we went!) It seems like it will be a fun ward. That afternoon we enjoyed a bbq with Jason's family before Jason headed off to work. Today we went to the Hyrum 4th of July parade. I have been watching that parade for many years and I hate to say it, this year's parade was pretty boring, but it was fun to watch dex and Roxy get excited for candy. Mainly Roxy, Dexter was done after the first 10 minutes of the parade. Jason is back and I'm avoiding cleaning.........
Our baby boy is growing well. I will be 22 weeks on Tuesday so only 18 more weeks to go. Its crazy to think that I am half way through my 2nd trimester, he'll be here before I know it. We have to really get going on his room. I have started to be able to feel his kicks, or at least what I think are his kicks. Jason has been able to feel him a couple of times. Its nice to feel him in there, hopefully it will help me worry less, lol. We just need to work on where he kicks, so far it seems like his favorite places are my ribs and around a cyst that I have. Good thing I already love him to pieces. Jason has been really cute, he talks and sings to him sometimes. He is going to be such a cute dad. Here is a picture of my baby belly since some have asked, excuse the weird look on my face.

That is about it for us here at the clark household! I'll try and be better about updating...haha. Leave a comment!

Its a...........

We are so excited!!! Haha 90 % of the guesses were wrong, so many people were guessing girl but he definitely all boy. After fighting the whole ultrasound, we finally got to see between his legs!

His name will be Kyler Lynn Clark! He is perfectly healthy and very cute! He has long legs and the most precious face, when he would show it to us!

He kept trying to cover his face with his hands, but Jason says that he is just getting ready to be a fighter!

Towards the end, he was definitely getting frustrated with us. As you can see in the picture, he was trying to tell us to go away.

Lots of people have been asking for baby belly pictures, so here is myself at 20 weeks. He's definitely giving me a belly but I cant blame him, he doesn't have much room.

I am officially halfway through my pregnancy! We are so excited and cannot wait to meet him!!!!!!

One year ago.....

Its a little early but i'm going to be out of town this weekend so I am posting early!


One year ago this saturday this cute man asked me to be with him forever!!



I cant believe that its already been a year! Its crazy to think that a year ago, we were just dating and I honestly thought it would be a long time until we got married, if we did and here we are happily married with our first baby on the way.


Jason is the most incredible guy and I'm so lucky to be married to him. He makes me laugh more than anyone and I can honestly say that I've never felt more loved! He is my best friend and I cant wait for all the more milestones that we'll have. I love you dear!!

We moved...

and we LOVE it! We moved to a townhouse and it is so amazing. It is so lovely to be out of the basement. We still have a lot of unpacking to do and I will be so excited when we are all done. We are so thankful for everyone that helped yesterday, we couldn't have done it without them. We especially have to thank my mom for all the cleaning she did! I was so stressed about it but it was the easiest move. haha of course I didnt have to do anything which made it easy. I so wish I could have though, I hate feeling lazy.
We have internet at our new place so I should be able to update more-as soon as we get unpacked! We'll put pictures and up everything! sorry its short but there's the latest news from the clark household!

PS We find out if we're having pink or blue on June 21!! Dont forget to take a guess!

Where to begin....

Wow sorry, I cant believe how long it has been since I have updated. Its crazy how quickly life keeps moving. Jason and I are both alive and doing well!
Jason is working hard as usual, both at walmart and lawn spraying. It definitely keeps him busy and I look forward to the times that I actually get to spend with him. I am surviving at work. haha I really hate calling people but its not too bad and at least it pays the bills! They are really flexible which has been nice.
As many of you know, we're expecting! :) I am 16 weeks along and we couldnt be more excited. We have about 4 weeks to until we find out what we are having so take a guess on our poll. Jason was saying that its a boy but now he's leaning towards a girl. I think its a girl. I guess we will find out soon. We can't wait to find out if we are having Kaeli or Kyler! :)
We are moving in 2 weeks! I am so excited to move, our new place is bigger and its not in a basement. but I HATE packing. Would anyone like to come pack for me...haha. We are going to be renting a townhouse right behind Shopko. It will be closer to work for us which will be nice too. We are so sad to leave our ward now. We absolutely love being in the nursery. Jason is not too sure what to think about having to go to priesthood, lol.
We are headed to Washington in a few weeks. It will be nice to see everyone but I am so dreading the drive. haha. So all my friends in Washington make sure you come see us.
Sorry this isnt much but here's an update for a little while! I promise that I will update more often and with pictures soon! We will be getting internet at our new place so it will be much easier then. I'll add ultrasound and belly pictures then. Thanks for reading!!! :)

our love story!

Since my story didn't work in the last post and I can't edit it off my phone so I'm just going to write a new post! Here is our love story that won the contest!!!

Jason and I met while working at wendy's our sophomore year in high school. After flirting for almost a year I got up the nerve to ask him on a date (yep I asked him first!) The plan was to go to a play together. We enjoyed the play and decided on dinner after. After dinner, neither of us wanted to go home so we went bowling and talked until our curfews, we didn't want to leave! The next week, we hung out a lot outside of work and talked on the phone. We had a big group date planned but we had different dates. We ended up spending most of the date together anyway. We went on a couple more dates when jason asked me to be his girlfriend! We spent as much time as we could together. It was another 2 monthes before we kissed. It was Jason's first kiss and his friends had a tradition that you owed everyone cookies when you got your first kiss. It was the night of my jr. Prom (we went to different high schools) and as we were saying good night, he said that he wanted to owe his friends cookies. After another 5 minutes, he kissed me. It was cheesy but completely perfect!! We dated for a year and a half before Jason left to serve a LDS misson. We broke up when I started dating one of his good friends(yes I know completely awful of me!). Jason was such a good person and kept writing me, so we stayed in contact his whole mission. When he came home we met up with some friends and we got talking. As we spent time together I could see that he had completely forgived me. I already knew that I loved him but it was at this point I knew this was my true love. After a few weeks we started dating again. During this time, jason said he wanted to get married but that he wasn't ready, it'd be another couple years. In all actuality he was already planning it. Before I tell you the story I have to tell you my dreams for my proposal. I wanted both sets of my parents asked. I wanted it to be a complete surprise but I wanted a certain ring and I wouldn't go ring shopping with him for it. I also wanted it to creative and recorded. (Ricidulous I know but he accomplished them all!) He got on my phone when I wasn't lookng and sent himself a picture of the ring I wanted, then went and bought it. He planned the proposal for a week after we went to visit my birth mom and family in washington because he wanted to ask permission from both sets of parents, which he did! On the day he proposed, we had plans to go to a rodeo. I had to work before so we decided I would meet at his house after. I got there and his car was there (he planned every detail even taking his dad's car so I would think he was there) so I went to go get him. His mom said he wasn't home and handed me a camera. I pushed play and there was a recording of cute cowboy jason. He said he wanted to play a fun game before the rodeo and was sending me on a scavenger hunt. He said to go talk to the good managers of the south where the good food and memories were (WENDY's). I drove there so quickly! On the way I called my friend and said I think Jason is proposing. She knew he was and had been helping him but she convinced me that it was just a fun date because jason likes to do that. It made it better that she did that! At wendy's I talked to my favorite old manager and she whipped up all of my favorite foods and in the middle was another camera disc. This clue told me to head to the places with the willows to play our favorite game. Jason and I love to play ultimate frisbee at willow park so I headed straight there! There I found my sister and friends playing frisbee. I played with them and when I caught the frisbee I felt another camera disk on the bottom of it! I quickly quickly ran off with it(I was having so much fun!). This clue said to go to a place where we love to study the Gospel together and where we can be sealed together forever. I quickly went to the temple. There I found a book and 2 cute dogs guarding another clue. This one said to head to Green canyon and find something silver (his dad's truck). I got up there and found Jason! We went on a hike and talked about life. I could tell he was way nervous but I didn't dare dream he was proposing for fear he wasn't. He asked me 5 times how I was doing, it was cute. We sat on some rocks and were just talking about our time together. He stopped suddenly and said if I don't do it now I won't. He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Apperently my initial response was a high pitched "are you serious?!" Then I of course sad yes! After all the hugging and kissing, we drove to our brother in law's house where Jason had our families and friends waiting to celebrate! It was incredibly perfect! We were married 2 1/2 monthes later and its been absolutely wonderful! He is my prince charming and its not like the fairy tale I dreamed of as a young girl, its even better. To me this is what true love is and I wish that everyone can be as happy together as we are! :)
