SpRInG has SpRUnG at the BaRTleTTs!!!

So, Jordan and I are totally THRILLED that Spring has FINALLY sprung at our house!

Last weekend was actually nice enough that we both took a much needed break from studying, and worked in the yard.
We planted our garden. (Yes, that 4'x10' rectangle is our "Garden". Don't feel bad laughing, all our neighbors do! But, it's just right for the two of us.) 2 tomato plants, 4 red peppers, a cucumber, 4 strawberries and some Sage to round it out!

Our first TULIP bulbs are popping up and blooming! And the rest of our beautiful flowers are coming out of hibernation!

Birds are again building their nests wherever they can in/on/around our house. This one decided to take up residence in our satellite dish brace after Jordan blocked off their entrance to our dryer vent!

And finally, Spring is not the only thing to have Sprung...My belly has decided it too wants to be noticed. So it popped! That's right, this Party of Two will soon become a Party of Three! I'm 17 weeks along, and have felt amazingly well the majority of the time. We were supposed to have our BIG ultrasound today(see picture, above) , but while we were waiting they came and told us the doctor had been called away to deliver a baby. So, it's postponed until Monday. We'll post the pic then.

In case you were unsure, we are beyond THRILLED! This little one was a long time coming, and we're super excited to be adding some MORE excitement to our lives! "Baby Bartlett" (we're NOT finding out the gender!) will make his/her appearance the end of September (Dr estimated September 25). So, ready or not, here he/she comes!

Here's a couple more pictures we've accumulated during the past 4 months. In case you couldn't figure it out, the number of fingers I'm holding up is how far along I am (13 weeks in the first and 4 months in the second). I'm LOVING being pregnant!

What I've been up to...

So, this post is WAY overdue, but better late then never I figure!

Back in January I decided I was going to really break-in my new sewing machine. So, I made a skirt! I LOVE it!


Also, for Christmas my Mom & Terry gave Jordan and I money to buy our Christmas presents from them...with some of my money I decided I would continue with my trend of becoming more domestic (see picture above) and buy a Kitchen Aid. I'm loving this too! However, I must admit there is a learning curve that I hope to conquer soon!

Alright, here it is...

So, I've tried several times to get a picture of the schools seal, and just post that...but I'm technologically challenged. So, I'll just tell you with words and no pictures...

Jordan was accepted into Pharmacy School at the University of Southern Nevada! They have a campus in Henderson, NV & South Jordan, UT and we've decided to stay in Utah and he'll attend the campus in South Jordan!

We are beyond thrilled! He's worked SO hard and I'm SO proud of him for all that he's accomplished!

Now comes the "fun" part...trying to sell the house! We'd like to move closer to his school so he's not commuting 60+ minutes each way, every day! So we've listed it, and now we just have to wait and see what happens.
