iNtRoDuCiNg...

Jentri Kay Woolstenhulme! On October 24th we had an amazing event! Our little Jentri came! I had went in for some testing and my blood pressure was too high, so my doctor decided to deliver. I was 35 weeks. She was born at 1:12 a.m. and was 4 lbs. 9 oz
It was so exciting because we had decided to name her after my mom, and she was born on her birthday! Here they are on their big day...
We felt that it was meant to be! We were so blessed to have her come safely. There are really no words to describe just how blessed we really are! She only spent twelve hours in the NICU and has done great since! Her pediatrician said she acts like a full-term 8 lb baby. There really are no words to describe the joy that a baby brings to your life.
We have always heard that there is nothing like it, but we now understand it. We have so much to be thankful for! Life is wonderful and we are truly thankful to our Heavenly Father for her! Thanks to all of our family and friends for all of the love and support as well... We LOVE you all SO much!

Here are some pics I took today... (her dad adores her)

tHe GrEaTeSt HuSbAnd...

I must say that I am one lucky girl! I really do have a great husband! Today was killer for me! I go crazy somedays being on bed rest, especially away from all of our family! Anyway...today was just "one of those days"! Cody didn't really know I was going crazy being here, but he had an extra few minutes at work and ran home to say "hi" and have some lunch. When he called to say he was coming home I was thinking about how irritable and grouchy I felt...bad I know. But when he got here he came straight in and hugged me and then started playing with my belly saying how cute it is... (which is hard to believe) But he was just so nice to me it made my whole day! I didn't feel like such a grouch after that. Once again...Cody saved the day for me and didn't even know it! I love him!

WE LOVE SNOW!! Cody and I have not been able to get up to Teton Valley for a couple of months. We are missing it pretty bad...especially since it is hunting season and Cody has not even picked up a rifle or bow! We have just been wanting to go home to the cool fall weather and see some snow on the mountaintops!
Well, on Sunday morning we woke up to a "winter wonderland"! We were so excited, it reminded us of home. Just while we were in church that morning it snowed about six inches on our car! It broke tree branches off and everything! It was so much fun though. We started our fire place and made it nice and cozy! It did make us want to go hang out with our families pretty bad though! We wished we were there to start a big game of Texas Hold Em' with the fam!

Cody graduated school in July. He was luckily hired to be an instructor shortly after he finished school. He absolutely loves flying! It is truly his passion. He loves going to work to fly. We have truly been blessed by the decision he made to do helicopter school!

We have now been married for two years. The biggest part of our life right now is the waiting for the newest addition to our family! We are so excited to start a family! We are all ready for our new little girl! We are living in Utah in our new home...which we love! Cody is a helicopter pilot instructor! He absolutely loves his job! I think it is one of the best decisions he has ever made! It is so awesome for him to go to work everyday and love it! Our life really is awesome! We are truly blessed! We have had our struggles, but with each trial we have been given, we have also learned something very valuable and had our faith made stronger! We love our life and each other!

This pregnancy has been quite the experience! It started out with a lot of morning/afternoon/night sickness. I would throw up everyday before work, sometimes at work, then at lunch, then again, sometimes at night! By the time I reached about 5 months it finally passed though! Which was awesome! I felt like me again! Then, at 27 weeks I went to the doctor and found out I had some high blood pressure. I ended up getting put on bed rest and I am to stay that way until I have her. I had to quit my job and everything, which was SO hard! That is not my personality at all! I need to stay busy!!! Hmmm...that could be the cause of the high blood pressure! Cody has been so sweet and supportive through all of this! Things are looking good though. For awhile it looked like she was not growing and she might come soon. However, I went to the doctor and she is almost 4 lbs! So... I am just hanging out trying to keep her safe! Although this pregnancy has brought about some challenges, I would not change a thing. The miracle of feeling a little baby and knowing it is something that is yours is amazing! Cody and I always talk about how much we already love this little girl and we haven't even really met her! Neither one of us can believe we are really going to be parents, but we are so excited! It was weird, we were so against having a baby for the first year of our marriage. Then one day, everything just changed! It will really change when she comes! Here are some ultrasounds from 28 weeks! Aren't these amazing?!
