State Fair

Baby, Grandma Jackson and I all went to the State Fair today(Sunday). It was a ton of fun we ate a lot of good food. I was able to get my favorite Crepes. Go get on them if you go to the state fair. We also looked at the largest pig weighing 1450 lbs. He was huge!! We went into the miracle birth center and were able to see some of the baby animals that were recently born. We also ended up doing a gondola ride which I had never done before. It was a ton of fun and glad we were able to make it.

A little poem

This is the poem that we included in Kevin's birthday card telling them that we are having a baby.

I do not have a face to see,

Or put inside a frame.

I do not have soft cheeks to kiss,

I don't yet have a name.

You can't yet hold my tiny hands,

Nor whisper in my ear.

It's still too soon to sing a song,

Or cuddle me so near.

But all will change come March,

That's when the say I'm due.

I'm your new grandchild,

And I can't wait till I meet you!

All I ask between now and then,

Is your patience while I grow.

I promise I'll be worth the wait,

Because of all the love we'll know.

So what I have to give you now,

is a wish to you from me

I cannot wait to be a part

Of this wonderful family!

Baby Olson

Tyler and I learned over the 4th of July that we would be parents in March. This was very exciting and all I wanted to do was tell the whole world but we waited until we had our 12 week appointment to make sure everything was ok with the baby.
On August 20th we went in for our 12 week appointment and were able to hear the baby's heartbeat which made us feel tons better, and now we were able to tell the family.
Tyler and I headed to my parents house to let them in on the good news. We had gotten them gifts that were bibs that said I love Grandma, and I love Grandpa. My mom cried when we gave those to them and they were very happy and excited to become first time grandparents. We then went to my grandmas house for dinner and were able to tell my aunts and uncles and cousins which were all very excited that there would soon be a baby in the family.
We headed to Tyler's parents house to tell his parents. We gave Kevin an early birthday card which had a poem that basically told them we were having a baby. They also cried and were very happy. Ross, Heidi, and Cameron came over Sunday and Tyler had a talk with Cameron letting him know that he was going to have a cousin. They were all very excited. Cameron will have a playmate :-)

For the most part I have been feeling very good. I have had no morning sickness, been very tired and I feel like I eat way more often. Other then that I feel great. We are just excited for the new baby to arrive here March 2, 2011!
