Hooray for spring!!


Us and the beautiful flowers Glenn got me for Valentines Day/Ultrasound Day!




I am now 6 months along and loving being pregnant. I feel great most of the time other than being tired all the time. Getting up is definitetly getting harder and our little boy is growing fast. We have our next doctor's appt. on Friday. Glenn and I have started a garden and are so excited to have fresh vegetables and fruit:) It is so exciting seeing our little seeds start to sprout. We started our lettuce, broccoli and carrots inside, in peat moss and also have 10 strawberry plants growing! We will rototill and plant our garden this coming Wednesday. We are so excited! Its so nice to have our own house and yard to actually do things in.






On another note, We are getting a new water heater. The one we have is leaking and is 17 years old! So Glenn has been researching a lot of water heaters and we are going to get a Noritz or Rheem Tankless water heater. We will get $300 from Questar within a month, and then another $308 from the government in our next tax return. The water heater is costing us about $750, but because it is so energy effecient we get these rebates! So it almost pays for itself right off with just those, and then we will be saving probably $20 a month on our gas bill because it only heats the water when we use it, so its not heating it all the time like a tank water heater! We are a bit excited for that. Well more Glenn than me but I always like saving money, so that is exciting.




Glenn is just about finished with his real estate classes and will start selling houses very soon! By the time the baby is born he is hoping to be making enough to support our growing family without me working (which makes me very happy)! Our life is going really well and we are just staying busy with work and continuing to make our house our own cozy home.

Our Little Boy!!

Here is our little ones body, the arms are on the right and the legs are bent on the left.
Here he is showing us that he is a boy.


He has his legs tucked up to his chest here.

Here is his face:) A little weird looking here but pretty cool looking to me.



So Glenn and I went to the ob/gyn for our 20 week ultrasound. Maybe I am just a little biased because I am the mom but it was the coolest part of the pregnancy so far! We found out that we are having a cute little baby boy!! We are so very excited. He was not ashamed to be a boy either. He had his legs spread wide for us all to see that he was definitely not a girl! He yawned for us and kept his arms and legs all curled up even though lately he has started using me as a punching bag:) At this point we are considering the name Devon Michael but as the pregnancy progresses that may change or when he is born it may just not be the right name for him. The due date is currently about June 21st.

Our life up to now:)

Andrea and Glenn met while she was living with his sister, Andrea Pearson in Provo, Utah. After Glenn decided that the Andreas' apartment was a cool place to watch movies he and Andrea Johnston eventually started to like each other and began dating on April 14, 2007. They got engaged on July 4th near the top of Mt. Timponogos and were married September 21st, 2007 in the Mt. Timponogos Temple for time and all eternity. Yep, we are very happy to get to be together that long:) From there, we started our married life together. Andrea taught second grade up at JR. Smith Elementary in Heber, UT for an internship through BYU. She graduated April 2008 and is currently teaching first grade at Noah Webster Academy in Orem, UT a public charter school which is a ton of fun. She has 26 scholars in her class and she loves almost every minute of teaching. Glenn started their marriage working at eFileCabinet, he later switched to DirectPointe and he now works at Equinox ITS. June 2008 they purchased a home in Pleasant Grove and are so happy to no longer be living in an apartment. This past October they were pleased to find out that a third Pearson would be joining their Pleasant Grove home. Andrea is pregnant and due June 26th, 2009! We find out how many babies and whether it is a boy or girl on Feb. 4!
