dogs, babies, jobs and houses! OH MY!

These past few months have been quite the whirl wind. We recently bought a house in Blackfalds. It is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath bi level house. Tons of space for growing and a great opportunity for our first home. We really love it there and look forward to creating many memories there. 

As well as, we recently got a dog, her name is Ruff, she is a 3 year old border collie cross. We picked her up from a shelter in panoka, she loooves attention, she doesn't know how to play and she loooves her food however only certain treats. She is truly a great addition to our family and we love her lots, even though she can be a bit whiney.

 INCLUDING, we got to find out the gender of our future child. We found out that we are going to have a baby GIRL! We found out easter weekend with Jesse and my mom at a 3d ultrasound. She was a very stubborn baby when the ultrasound monitor was placed on my belly all we saw was her back, as well as, she had her feet crossed and her hands over her face! Everything possible that could make a ultrasound difficult! She made me go in multiple different positions to try and get the baby to move. She even made me get up and exercise a bit with a juice box. She eventually did move, and she showed us her face for a brief moment but the umbilical cord was still in the way! Talk about difficult! After she showed us her face, it was time to get to the nitty gritty and find out the gender! Towards the end Jesse and I saw what gender she was before the tech told us. Mom was excited it was a girl, Jesse kind of groaned because he wanted to have a little boy, and I just cried because I couldn't believe I was going to have a daughter! 

Lastly, Jesse went to school for his class 1 he only took 8 hours of class time to get his class 1, which is pretty good. He also recently got a job at Trican being a fracturing operator and he enjoys it, he enjoys his cooworkers and he has a really great boss! 

This past year has already been crazy, moving super fast but I can't wait to see how the rest of the year will go!
