Thanksgiving week.

7 Things I'm thankful for, 1 for each day this holiday week.

1. I'm thankful for my amazing husband, for taking care of me and always believing in me. He is going to be the best dad to our little girl.
2. For our baby, although unexpected she is already such a blessing for Ben and I, we can't wait to finally meet her.
3. For Allie, for being the best puppy and in a way preparing me for motherhood.
4. For my parents, Jordy, Whit, Bay, Jayce, and Paisley. For always being there for me and never saying "I told you so" when I mess up, even if they really really wanted too. :)
5. For my entire extended family, for all the love and support they've shown me throughout the years.
6. For My home.
7. For my job, to be able to work with some of the most talented girls whom I adore and admire.

.ITS A GIRL!.

Let me introduce you all to our baby girl! We have decided on a name, Chloie Kae Andrus

She was such a little stinker at the ultrasound. She was sitting on her feet for the first 10 minutes, crossed her legs for another good 10 minutes, and the spread her legs but made sure to put her hand between her legs so we couldn't see. It took about 45 minutes to get a good look at her.

Here are some of her pictures! :)

Baby Andrus!

Yep... Baby Andrus... as in I'm gonna be a mommy!

Ben and I found out about 4 weeks ago, at my regular yearly exam (Ick), that we are going to be parents! COMPLETE SHOCK!
We got to hear the heart beat on June 30th and the baby measured 8 weeks 2 days! They gave us an ultrasound picture (Ben thinks the baby looks like a turtle.) It already has legs and arms!! How crazy!!
The due date is February 1st!

The Horrors of Cleaning

So I've never really enjoyed cleaning until I got my own home. I've cleaned this entire house over and over since we've moved in. I love having it spotless... Everywhere except the garage..
Cleaning the my cars' bedroom never seemed important, little did I know the garage is the place that needs cleaning the most.
And here's why:
I started out just cleaning out my car and decided that I should pick up the few drinks I had lined up against the wall ( I was to lazy to carry them all the way into the kitchen in the mornings). There was one McDonalds cup with some coke in it, with no lid, and sitting on top of the coke was what appeared to be a dead brown recluse spider. I pick up the cup and begin walking to the garbage can. It suddenly dives down into the coke and of course I freak out cause it lives in the coke. GROSS... But that's not the best part I go over to the grass and proceed to dump it out and instead of just coke and a very large scary spider a DEAD MOUSE plops out!!! I chuck the cup and run screaming back into the garage with Allie right behind me howling. Couple of chickens, right?
So I've learned my lesson the garage stays clean and loaded with Decon! :)
