Number 1!!!

Ed and I officially made it through our first year of marriage today. YAY!!! You know it has been a great year too. We've had lots of stuff happen. For starters we became parents to our beautiful baby girl on April 7th. Second Ed went through the Utah College of Massage Therapy and is officially a Licensed Massage Therapist. I managed to work up until 2 weeks before I had Naomi to put him through that school. And now we're both working full time and rarely see each other, but through it all we've never had a fight or anything.

Today was awesome though. We both took the day off and slept in. Funny how sleeping in for me is until 7:30-8 and sleeping in for Ed is until 10 or 11. But hey, it was nice. Naomi and I made daddy breakfast (8 egg omelet, hash browns and bacon), then we got all ready for the day and Naomi went to play with Aunt Roxanne and her cousins Mikey and Allison. After we dropped Naomi off Ed went and picked up his paycheck at work and then we were off for a fun filled day.

I blindfolded Ed and got him all lost as to his surroundings and then I drove us downtown to The Leonardo where we walked through the Body Worlds 3 Story of the Heart Exhibition. It was absolutely AMAZING! Ed liked the man who was split in 3 from the waist up. I think my favorite though was the fetus' in different stages. They had different vials that showed from 1 week up to the end of the 8th week. The first week fetus looked like just a speck of fuzz in the jar, but it was amazing to see just how fast those babies grow. For example they had one that showed the fetus in the middle of week 6 and by the beginning of week 7 the baby went from little stubs for arms to being able to see full arms and hands. Granted they were tiny but still. And by week 8 you can see the eyes and little fingers and toes and everything. And its no bigger than maybe a tube of chap stick. Then they also had 6 cases with babies from week 21 through week 32. And it is just amazing how much difference there is in just that short time.

I don't know why that specific one stood out so much to me. Maybe its because I just had our daughter and it put the pregnancy into perspective for me, but it was truly AMAZING. I encourage all of you to go check this exhibit out before they leave in January. It's expensive to go but it is so worth it. You see everything from muscles, to the nervous system to the brain, and all the organs and everything. Even organs that have tumors and lungs of a smoker compared to a non smoker and everything.

Anyway, moving on....after we walked through that we walked up the curved stairs to the top of the library and then Ed was tired so we rode the elevators back down. And then we went to Baskin Robins for and ice cream cone. And after that we came home and Ed gave me a little massage and I took a short nap. And then we walked around the corner to the Jasmine restaurant where we had dinner. And may I just say that that place has wonderful service and DELICIOUS food. You all should try it sometime too. Its Chinese Bistro and Sushi Bar. Mmm Mmm Mmm! (Oh and Fried Ice Cream really is good Michelle)

So that was our day. It was a nice break from our normal work week. Which if you know our schedule its crazy with me working from 6 in the morning til 2 and then coming home so Ed can walk out and go to work til 10:30 at night. So yeah I'd just thought I'd share our day. I took a pic of Ed in his blindfold before I took it off. So I'll post that tomorrow. I've got to go jump in bed cause I'm going to die at work tomorrow.

Later!
