Hiking to the Y

Well, We've lived in Provo for almost two years now, and we still hadn't hiked the Y together. I had done it before and remembered thinking it wasn't that great of a hike. HOWEVER, Cory is finally done with the police academy so we had a Saturday to hang out together, so we decided to make it happen!
 This is from the parking lot. I think the view here is just as great as the view from the top. But I was already invested this far, there was no turning back.
 Here we are at one of our many many stops. This hike is switchbacks the entire way up. The internet has it marked as a "moderate" hike. WHAT THE... anything with the work switchback in it should NEVER be classified as a "moderate" hike. I had to stop at almost  every switchback... and ..... breathe....lucky for me my hubby is a patient and loving guy.
 I really did it! And 5 months pregnant to boot! The hike down was so much more enjoyable for me. Other than it felt like my belly was sagging to floor thanks to hiking downhill and gravity! ha ha ha
The best part of the entire hike was our stop on the way home to the BYU creamery. We had never been there and it was cheap and delish!!!

22 Weeks!

How strangely awesome are these pictures? My doctors office just got the 3D option for the ultrasound machine, and I was the first person the tech used it on! I thought it was a little creepy at first, but now I just think its freaking awesome. Today during the ultrasound we saw him try and get his thumb in his mouth and yawn! And of course putting his hands up over his face, he's done that since the beginning. He's healthy and everything is going great! We sure are loving this little guy.

Cory's last day of the Police Academy at UVU is today! I cant tell you how happy I am that the crazy schedule of full time work and full time school is about to be over for the summer! I also wanted to say how EXTREMELY proud of Cory I am! He has worked so hard and missed out on a lot of things. Watching him go through this process has confirmed to me how important it is to do things that you LOVE doing. Don't just go in to a degree or career for the money, because life is so much better when you enjoy what you are doing. And this boy really ENJOYS what he's doing! CONGRATS CORY!!!

P.S. Also in this picture, I am 5 months pregnant. This picture does me justice, but not the belly. The stripes hid it well. I will post more soon.
