a little texas sized update

It has now been almost 3 weeks since we have been here in Dallas and each day I start to like it a little bit more. Alex and I had our two year anniversary on the 12th so before he went to work we decided to wake up early and go to the zoo. On our way to the zoo we changed our minds and decided to save our money for next week because we have to take our car to Austin to get our AC replaced. Austin is where we lived last summer so we have to make a few fun stops while our car is getting fixed. ex: Rudy's, Lake Georgetown, and a few other places that we love. It will be fun to celebrate our anniversary there.

So we just drove around the city for a little bit and then headed to the mall for an hour or so before he had to go out and knock. It was fun spending time together even though we didn't do a whole lot. I really can't believe its been 2 years!! I'm so happy that I married my best friend. Alex is so good to put up with me! especially since I've been pregnant. I've been kind of a pain! I love you Alex!

Yesterday was such a fun day with the wives. Chelsey Timmerman introduced us to a cupcake shop called sprinkles which was delicious. She is a little obsessed with cupcakes and i love it because she always knows about cool cup cake places =) After sprinkles we walked around a few shops which were pretty cool.

Last night our ward had a "Girls night out" at a Mediterranean diner called Cafe Izmir. It was really fun to try different kinds of food. It was great getting to know the girls in our ward better and we had a lot of fun conversations. I really like our ward here in Dallas. Yesterday was a great day.

Another exciting thing that has happened is I have been feeling the baby kick for the first time and its so amazing! Alex was able to feel it too! I am pretty emotional and of coarse started to cry. Its so unreal.

well thank for reading! sorry this post was so long! Here are some pictures of the past few weeks.
