Life as of lately...

OK. I will be the very first to admit that if it was humanly possible to be fired from my own blog because of neglecting it, I could probably do it. I am the worst blogger in history and I will make an excuse saying that life has not been slow. Not once. But whose life ever is? I have no valid excuses other than my lazy ways. So profuse apologies from me to you. But, if it makes anything better or more tolerable or likely for forgiveness, I promise lots of fun and exciting things to be written about. So lets get started!

So as many of you know, Daniel and I have a cute little apartment on the North end of town and we absolutely love it. The only problem is I only love the apartment.  NOT the town. When I first moved to Cedar City, it was new and exciting and held so much potential for me…and now that I am married, working, and not in school it isn’t as glorious. I miss my family, I miss not living in the middle of nowhere… and thanks to some serious thought and prayer…we have made the decision to relocate our little family back to good ole Davis County! I could not be more excited. Being the youngest child in my family I like to think that it has given me a very special bond with both my mom and dad and I will be the first to admit that I need them now more than ever. And with the rock star of a husband that I have he has so graciously agreed to transfer schools and pick up and move. What a sweetheart, right? So my Davis county friends, we will be reunited in about a month! Woohoo!!

In other big news for the Grimms, which there seems to be a lot, we finally went on our honeymoon!! You heard me right, it took us a couple months to actually take the leap but when we did we landed in DISNEYLAND! It was absolutely what we needed and I don’t think I have ever had so much fun in my entire life :) I mean it when I say vacationing without an agenda is heaven on earth. Since it’s just me and Daniel it was so easy just to plan a trip so abruptly and just go! We went to the beach, Downtown Disney, went on California screamin’ probably 18 times in 3 days…we had an absolute BLAST. We also played every Mormon on vacations favorite game, you guessed it, spot the MoMos! We even stood in line behind people playing the same game and bonded over the pride you feel when you confirm they are indeed LDS. It’s kind of sad how rewarded you feel. We had a good time taking selfies with characters, riding star tours way too many times, eating some of the most delicious food known to MANKIND, and just enjoying being US. But, if you have the time and money to go, seriously go to Disneyland simply for Cars Land. Disney has really outdone themselves with that …its absolutely phenomenal!! Also, there is a little food place called the Bengal BBQ across from Indiana jones…trust me when I say it was some of the best food I’ve ever had!! So good. I look forward to going back…but it might be a while because of a little something coming to our family…

The arrival of the first Grimmlin!! The majority of you already know this because we publically announced it but we could not be more excited! This pregnancy is only 7 weeks in and I am already dying for the peanut to just get here NOW! November 24th is quite the distance away is you ask me. This pregnancy has been short yet very hard for me…I have been SO sick. Yesterday I was not feeling well and nothing seemed to be helping so my doctor had me come into the office to get some IV fluids, which was fine, but he also wanted to do an ultrasound to make sure everything was checking ok with the babe. For all of the moms out there, I know you will be able to relate to how I am feeling. Daniel and I got to hear our baby’s heartbeat and see the little one for the first time. I was so overwhelmed absolutely instantly with love for the raspberry sized human being in my tummy. I mean I have known I was pregnant for a while now but hearing that strong, fast little beat and seeing that there is indeed a little human inside there made everything so real for Daniel and I. I already can tell I am going to be one of those parents who brags about their baby constantly. I already think the peanut is the most perfect little thing in the world and I don’t even know the gender yet. I am finally getting a small glimpse into a mothers love and I am absolutely overwhelmed with emotion. This poor baby isn’t going to know what hit it when it comes to us. I will be a bit too much for him, I can already tell :)


So a lot has happened in the past 4 months and we honestly could not be happier with the direction our lives are going. I love Daniel more and more each and every day, and same goes for the peanut. I will try my best to keep everybody updated on baby news and life and adventures of the Grimm family. Thank you for being in my life. A lot of you have contributed to who I am today, and the kind of mom I am going to be to this baby. SO thank you, from all of us. Until next time!
