Amaryllis Time!

For those of you who don't know every year the Huntington's Society of Canada sells amaryllis flower kits to raise money. The amaryllis is the Huntington symbol. This year I have taken on two cases of these kits to sell. They sell for $12.00 a kit. That kit includes a pot, the bulb, and the soil.

"Nearly half of the price of this quality 'Orange Souvereign' amaryllis plant goes directly to vital programs in research and family services for people dealing with Huntington disease."



So I guess what I am asking is for you all to help me out here! They make great gifts for yourself or for someone else! If anyone is interested please let me know! You can email me at narushton@hotmail.com and leave your name and number. I would be more then happy to get you an amaryllis or two!

Thanks!

Eight Weeks & counting.....

First off, Nathan & I just really want to say a big "THANK YOU" to everyone who has been so supportive. We feel very blessed with this baby and are so happy that everyone is just as excited as we are! I had my first prenatal doctor's appointment the other day. It went really well. Everything looks good so far. We should be expecting our baby around the 30th of May! What a good month! I have been feeling surprisingly good lately. I was a little worried from what some people were telling me I should be expecting but, I haven't been too bad. I'm really tired alot, so I spend most of my days just resting and not doing too much. I haven't gotten sick yet though and we are almost through the three month stretch so that's very exciting to me!

Nathan is gone to Unity for a few weeks to work for his Uncle, so I'm pretty lonely here without him! It's been a change that's for sure. We were getting so used to having each other around. But he's really enjoying his job right now so that's a good thing! And really it's not like we aren't used to being apart! He's only a couple of hours away so on my days off I'll be going to visit him.

Last night my most amazing friend Kimmie, her son Aidan and I went out for supper and then out for some shopping. We went to Jerry's for supper. Man I love it there! Aidan had fun playing with the toys (while they could keep him interested) and Kimmie and I had a good chat. After that she took me to Thyme Maternity. It was my first time shopping for 'baby belly' clothes so it was pretty exciting for me! I was just excited to see that not everything was a nasty floral print! I don't know why but that's just what I had imagined for some reason! haha! I actually found myself a cute shirt and it was on sale so that made it even better! Kimmie took some pictures.......

That's the shirt I bought!

Kimmie made me stick the pillow under my top! Aidan thought this was just hillarious!

My belly at two months.....not too large just yet!

Well I think that's all for now guys! I have to get the pictures from the BC trip from my brother and then I will be sure to post them and let you all know how it went!!!

Take care and God bless!

WE ARE PREGNANT!!!

So I know that it has been way to long since we have last posted and I apologize for that! But now that I am all done work for the summer I promise that I will try my hardest to keep posting more often! I guess I just got so far behind that I didn't know where to start!

But yes it's true! Like the title says we are pregnant!!! (So now kimmie can spill her beans!!) haha! Nathan & I found out on friday. We had known for a couple of weeks but we found out for sure when I went to the doctor on friday! So we have been busy calling all our family and friends and letting them know the exciting news!! It's seems kind of surreal right now especially since we have been trying for so long and not having anything happen. But God's timing is always good timing!! But man was He ever testing my patience!!!!

Nathan & I are eager to be going to BC come friday. We are heading out there with my family to see the McAmmond side of the family! I can't wait! I haven't seen a few of them for far too long. So I am really anxious for the end of the week!!

Anyways I know that this wasn't a very long blog but it was a blog none the less!! Talk to you all again soon!
