Kyleigh ???? Wohlers

I love names that have some sort of family or sentimental value. Because my mother's name is Kelly Leigh and mine is Katherine Leigh, I wanted to continue the "tradition" of a "K" and "Leigh." Kyleigh just fits...i think it's prefect! However, I'm having the hardest time picking a middle name. Right now, my top choices are a) Kate b) Elizabeth c)Grace. I'm just stuck! I need your help! Please feel free to suggest more options or vote for the three above. 

chick-fil-yay!

The past few weeks have held some exciting change for us! Scott got a job! Yay! This has been a burden on us for a while since we needed to find something that offered medical benefits asap! On our way to kansas scott got a call to interview for a managers position at a local chick-fil-a in kansas. After a few interviews they offered him the job with full benefits! What a blessing! We would both like to go back and finish our degrees so we're not sure how long he'll be working there, but we are so so thankful that the Lord has taken care of us and know He always will! :) Scott is so cute! He has the funniest stories when he comes home from work. The other day he got to dress up as the cow!!! How fun!

More good news: We have been visiting a church up here (heartland) and absolutely love it! I had lunch with the director of the women's ministry last week to talk to her about ways for me to become more involved. She got me in contact with the leader of a small group of expecting and new mothers. I'm really looking forward to going to their next gathering! There's just something about being around other pregnant women when you're pregnant. We'll have lots to talk about! :) I am never out of questions! I want to be as prepared as i can for when Kyleigh comes!

Switching Roles!

So I've been trying to be a good wifey...do all the cooking and try and keep the apt clean as much as possible! Well, it came time to start cooking dinner tonight and scott said that he wanted to give me a break and made dinner all by himself and it was delicious! He made home-made potato soup! He got the recipe from one of the cookbooks we got as a wedding gift! It was so sweet of him to give me a break and kick me out of the kitchen for a night! What a wonderful hubby! I just love him! 


He's wearing the apron Mrs. Katherine Cheshire made for me! :)

Six Months down!

So I can finally tell myself that I'm over half way there! I reached my 24th week a few days ago! My leg cramps have gone away for now and I've had more energy lately! I am hungry all the time! So far my cravings have been for: Pickles, strawberry milkshakes, Dr. Pepper, and oreos! Don't worry these have all been consumed separately...I haven't asked for pickles in my milkshake yet :) Scott is so great about everything! My hormones have been going crazy! This morning Scott put some of his clothes in the washing machine. He kindly asked me if i would stick them in the dryer while he was in the shower. Being the dutiful wife that i am, i gladly agreed and did so. After the dyer stopped scott got some clothes out and realized they weren't fully dry and needed a little bit longer. He found me in the kitchen(big surprise) and simply wanted to inform me that the clothes don't fully dry unless on the "very dry" cycle. For some reason I was "extra extra" sensitive and took his advice as a blow to my domestic abilities! Then came the "water works!" I couldn't make the tears stop! I knew that scott was not attacking me at all but just the comment about how i put it on the wrong cycle made the tears surface! I was so embarrassed that more tears started flowing! I finally got control of myself and scott and I started busting out laughing! We laughed so hard! I am not a tearful person...it takes a lot for me to cry! Not lately! I cry at the drop of a hat! Scott is so great about being sensitive to that and helping me laugh at myself! He's so great! 

Here's a pic of my belly! Kyleigh is so so active! I felt her kick for the first time right before christmas...now I can hardly go an few hours without feeling her! It's so cool to watch my belly jump when she kicks it hard! Athlete!?! Hope so!!  

Sunny Saturday!


Well, it snowed yesterday and temperatures dropped to 9 degrees. However, we woke up this morning to warmer temps and a bright sun melting it all away :(
This is the outside of our apartment building with all the melting snow :( 


The weather channel predicts that we are going to get some more snow this week. I love the snow! I want it to snow as much as possible!

Here are some pictures of our new apt in Kansas. Please keep in mind that I'm still in the process of decorating. As you'll see, I've got a lot of wall space to fill! I decided not to paint since we're only going to be here for 6 months...so beware of the white! 

          Our tiny Dining room. Scott's parents gave us this kitchen table(what a blessing!) we just need to pick up the rest of the chairs! The window ceil in the background is currently a storage shelf until i figure out where to put those things. 

                                                  Our Little Kitchen 
                                                                        Living Room
            We got a wii as a wedding gift...we play it all the time...scott is enjoying wii football


Our new Bedroom suit. I have a lot to do all over our apt but I thought you (esp you mom) would enjoy seeing some pictures. Decorating is not my forte but it will keep me busy for a while till we make some good friends here. Please feel free to make suggestions...I need to add color in a cheap way so if you know of any don't hesitate to tell me!

Bloggers Bug

Well, I've finally given into the bloggers bug! I have always enjoyed surfing the blogs of people I know, reading post and looking at pictures! My circumstances now allow me to create one and hopefully(fingers-crossed) keep it updated! Since I'm now 20 hours away from all my family, I'm not much of a phone talker and Scott is working now, I hope this will be a good way to keep everyone updated on us through Wohlers World (yeah we've even got the appropriate rhyming title to our blog...you know you like it.) I'll probably put some pictures up soon of our new home once I: a.) finish unpacking  b.) find my camera  c.) figure out how to post pictures!
