Has a week already gone by?

             It's been close to a week since my last post, so I have a bit to catch up on.
   Last week I started taking my prenatal vitemin, hearing and reading that it may make me feel ill all day. I've been taking it everyday since and I haven't noticed it making me feel any different. So that makes me happy. I have noticed though that I have been feeling icky the past few days from the time I wake up till the time I go to bed, unless i'm eating. I know I just said that I dont think the prenatal vitamin is making me feel sick and thats becuase I dont notice a difference after I take it (I kinda just feel sick all the time now) Though I feel sick I havent had to throw up at all, and I notice that my sence of smell is quite hightened I never really seem to get  turned off by smells. Even though eating does subside the pain, I've been pretty good about eating a healthy amout of food in a day and a few small heathy snacks in between. Jason and I have stocked our fridge with lots of heathy meals and snacks and i'm quite excited about it. I really want to steer clear of fast foods and soda while i'm pregnant.
   Jason and I travled twice last week for his job and I was a bit nervous going with him, thinking that it would make me feel to ill, or that not having access to a bathroom much would be unpleasent. It honestly wasn't that bad and I was surprised with how well I did.
   For Mothers day I orderd myself some new tennishoes! I'm pretty excited about them because they are the Reebok Reetone shoes. I haven't had a good pair of tennishoes in years, so i'm excited to put them to good use with lots of walking and excercing. The weather has been pretty nice the past few days so I've been taking Olie on nice long walks. (In my new shoes of course) We found this perfect track by our apartment and I love that to get there you have to walk up a hill with a nice incline. I think it's perfect excercise for me, becuase I've been a little scared lately with working out to hard.. I dont want to hurt the baby.
   So, something silly that Olie does, is that he likes to find and hide (dirty or clean) underwear and socks. If he can get ahold of them he'll snatch them up and and run off as quick and he can, jump on the couch and start stuffning them into the corrners. he's so cute, but of course we get onto him becuase A. Its the worst when guests come over and you have half a pair of unserwear sticking out of your couch. B. I hate how sometimnes before he stuffs them away he'll chew a hole in them. and C. I hate how we can't find our underwear or socks when needed. Hah, we have learned quick to not put them anywhere near his grasp and we hide them in the dirty laundry (yet he still magages to find them) Silly puppy.
   Today has been a nice relaxing day. I've been reading a lot. The book i'm reading is The legend of Drizzt, I'm on book 5 and loving it. I should get off here and see about dinner for my man whos getting home soon from work. This weekend we made the best Stir-fri ever! I do love cooking.
   Untill next time <3DoubleH

I love Tuesday's!

   Jason works for a company called Defender Sicurity. It's been an awesome job, and we both love it very much. This job comes with a lot of swings though, such as we never know Jasons schudual until the morning of, and the job is based off of all commitions. It can be very hard to love a job like this, but Jason has amazing skills and provides (usually) very well for us.
   The reasons why I love Tuesdays is becuase it's Jason's day off! We get to sleep in together, get up and make bfreakfast together. (Well, he made me breakfast today... they were probably the BEST pancakes ever!) and just enjoy eachothers company while we run errands or watch a movie. Jason is a very hard worker, so we love to relax together on our Tuesdays and Sundays.
   Last night, Jason and I bought the coolest blender ever! It's like a water bottle that you blend up smoothies in, remove the blades and put on a lid. We love this new blender! (We got two bottles for each of us) This morning we had a delicious, healthy smoothy made up of frozen strawberrys, yogurt, manderine organes,a little splenda, ice, and orange juice. It was so refreshing, I look forward to having this as a healthy snack during my pregnancy.
   Other great news! Jason finally got me a working washer and dryer. I very much so look forward to being able to do laundy in our own place.
   As far as the pregancy goes... well, not a lot has happened since my last post other than the fact that I bought a poster board to help me start keeping track of things better. I'm excited about it. ---
   I'm not sure why, but I've been a little concerned about miscarrying. :( I feel like people keep bringing it up. (such as my sister, and Jason's brother) I know I don't want to worry about it because stress is a huge key as to why people miscarry, but it still makes me think about how with me being still so early into the pregnancy, that its' still a 25 percent chance. Anyway, I'm not going to let it get to me, I know that this will be a beautiful, happy pregnancy. :)
   Until next time, <3 DoubleH

I'm Pregnant! 5 weeks along

   Before I found out that I'm pregnant I had already noticed some minor changes to my body. My chest had started to swell and became very sensitive, and I couldn't hold my blatter for anything! Since the last two months my chest had been swelling right before my period, and the fact that i've had a bad histoy of bladdar infections I didn't really think to much of it. So when it came time for me to have my period and it never showed up, i started to become nervous that i was pregnant.
    For about a month now i've been trying (enphesus on trying) to maintain a super healthy diet and work out routine to get into great shape for the upcoming summer. I had no plans on becoming pregnant so soon into our marriage. We have always wanted to plan out our babies and pick what months they are to be bore in. We wanted to be married for a year and enjoy just each other before adding to the family. We wanted to save up as much money as we could. We wanted to travel. We just wanted to be in control. (Though I do deeply and strongly admit that both Jason and I have been very "Baby Hungry" soon after we were married.
   On April 30th '11 we went to a clinic so I could be tested for pregnancy. They then directed us to just use a stick that you buy at the store. "they are just as accurate, but a whole lot cheaper" they told us. So , we stopped by the store and got 2 tests just in case. We then went home and I took a test, and left it in the bathroom for 2 minuets. In those two minuets I found out from Jason that he was hoping that I would be pregnant, and that he would be sorely disappointed if i wasn't. I also had to admit to myself that I was hoping that I was pregnant too. It was probably less then two minuets when Jason and I returned to the bathroom to the result of "positive". We were so happy and so nervous at the same time. This wasn't something we were planning at all, but were so secretly hoping for. (This was no mistake, and in time we will know it's a blessing.) We went on ahead and did the second test just to make sure, and we got the same result.
   The past few days have been interesting. The first night after knowing I couldn't sleep, all I could think about was the baby. 'is it a boy or a girl?' 'will it have my eyes?' 'i hope it's not to painful!' 'will we be good parents?' 'are we ready for this?' 'i'm so happy!' 'I'm so scared.' Everything was going through my mind. The next day we started telling people. Our parents are happy (especially our moms) Jason's sister Lena told us about a website called Babycenter.com - It's been very helpful! - Today I picked a midwife (Named Angela Anderson) and set up an appointment with her on Monday, May 23rd. They said by then we'll be able to hear the babies heart beat. According to Babycenter.com my due date is December 31st. I'm excited to see how things go from here.
   Until next time. <3 DoubleH

About me

   My name is Hannah (Lasiter) Hunt, I'm 21 years old. I love cooking, reading, shopping, movies, and being around people I love. I had many different experiences in life when I was a youth. I traveled a lot, home schooled, graduated at 16, experienced college, and many church youth activities such as EFY, YC, GC ect. I 'd  stay with friends in different places, enjoyed my YSA group, lots of baby sitting and enjoying the company of my family. Along with wonderful experiences I've also experienced many mistakes, mistakes that I've now learned from. -- Right now I'm at a totally new and different stage of my life. A stage that you are counseled to prepare for throughout all of your youth. I'm not sure if you can ever be ready to be an adult, and take on the responsibilities that it brings, I think you just have to be ready and willing to embrace this new stage of life with open arms and an open mind.
   My husband Jason and I recently got married on January 15th 2011 in my home town of Missouri. We now live in Sandy UT. I am a stay at home wife that loves to take care of her husband and little puppy Olie. We recently found out on April 30th '11 that we are going to be blessed with another addition to our family. We are going to have a baby! 3 1/2 months into our married life and I'm pregnant. This wasn't something that Jason and I were planning on, we wanted to wait at least a year after being married and see where we were at then. Even though this wasn't part of our plan, we are both very extactic about becoming parents! (Maybe a little scared too!) I know that Jason is very excited to become a Daddy, (I also know he'll be a great one) I've never been sure what i'm good at or what I wanted to do with life, but I do know that I've always wanted to become a Mom and I hope and pray that i'll be good at it.
This Blog is here for me to write about my first experience's being pregnant, and many firsts that Jason and I experience as a family, myself as a wife and mother, and any other thoughts I wish to share.
   Until next time, <3 DoubleH
