The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly

I have decided I am a HORRIBLE Blogger...I only update my blog about every 6 months to every year, so I am sorry for that. I can't be helped :)So how is life in the Kenner home you say? uggguh...It's not ideal. I have enjoyed these first two years together with the minor bumps and newly-wed bliss. But we all know it can't stay PERFECT forever. The love and complete adoration for each other is still very present, our time together has just become almost non-existant.

The Good:
I very recently have been promoted in the company I work for, Us Bank. I am very proud of myself and hope to have further oportunites and continue to excel within the Bank. I <3 Us Bank.

Chris applied for The University of Utah last Wednesday! Hurrah! We are crossing our fingers! I am so extremely moved by his continued hard work and amazed at how smart and dedicated he is. I am glad he has finally found the career he is super excited to persue and can be very happy with. (also, he is such a goof! He checks EVERY drug label on every perscription he happens to come across..)I <3 my nerd!

I have a new baby nephew, widdle Lucas Robert Christensen. It's crazy how the second you lay eyes on a tiny baby you are instantly in LOVE with them! Oh- I could write a whole blog about how much I love that baby, but you all might think im crazy/upsessed (which I am) He is just so..PERFECT! You can tell he came straight from heaven though, I love it when he peeks at me and gives tiny little smiles. There is something different about being there for the entire proccess where I got to see him grow in my sister Jessica's belly, then see him the day she delivered him and see him grow every step of the way that makes him so special to me. I love me some Kyle boy as well! I don't hold favoritism with my nephew's, I have know Kyle since he was only 4 months old! It's just really special when you get to know the baby right after he is sent from heaven. To be in your family for eternity that really moves you and lets you know that Families are Forever.

My good friend Dorothy who lives with us currently has become engaged! I am sooo- happy for her and Craig :) the wedding date is set for October 1st!

I made the invitations for my sissy Ashlee's baby shower and they are to DIE for. I love them so much I just want to keep them all so I can awe at them every day. haha

I found Gluten Free Cake mixes...that taste d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s! Go me!

Chris has been called as a cub scout leader...haha good practice for when we have chillins I guess?

I heard a funny Joke about Obama/bra's and how just like obama, bra's loose more and more support everyday..hehehe

Fall semester for me starts in 34 days!! Can't wait! It's my last year before Nursing School! Heck ya!

And...I love my husband more and more everyday, I have constant confirmation that we were meant for each other.

The Bad:

We lost our first baby 5 weeks ago today :( I was nearly 10 weeks pregnant and the doctor says the baby just stopped growing. At my first appt the doctor thought I had maybe just been measuring small or concieved later than we thought, but in the end it looked like that baby was meant to be with us at a different time. The second doctors appt confirmed the heartbreaking news and now we are just trying to get through this hard time. I am a very sad Brittany, it's been very rough for Chris and I. Since I don't have as much on my plate to occupy my thoughts (Like Chris) I am not seeming to move as far past the sadness as I would like to. A lot of people say it will hurt like this until we have a healthy baby of our own, but who really knows? I know I will be happy again and with the help of all my loved ones and heavenly father, I WILL get past this.

The Ugly:

Miss Britney, I understand the pain of losing a child, maybe not in the same sense, (I'll explain later), but it hurts for a while.... For me 17 + years, but you find joy in so many other things that it starts to subside. We all love you both so much, you are always in our thoughts and prayers. You have so many blessings to look forward too. YAY! Peace be with you
