6 Weeks and counting

Photobucket

A month and half has blown by for me but not without this baby letting me know it's here. This week has been the worst! Forget the morning sickness, let's try all day sickness or keep the fan blowing on me like a dog hanging outside a car window or how about let's eat everything in the pantry to try and remedy my aching belly or what about going to bed every night by 8:30pm? Wow! Above all else, I am so grateful the Lord is forming this precious baby in my womb and what a miracle it is.

Our first appointment went well and everything is measuring like it is supposed to. We go back on April 9th for an ultrasound then again on April 27th. Hopefully to hear a strong heartbeat and see a little more than what's in the picture below.

Happy 32nd Birthday, Luvbug!

I'm absolutely lucky to watch you grow day by day. You are more than I could have ever imagined in a husband, best friend, and lover. I love you!

Hope you liked the jam cake I finally got to make you <3

Turkey anyone?

Thought I would throw in a short blog before the rainy, gloomy weekend here.

Grant and I have had some life changing experiences over the past few weeks and boy does it feel good. As of last Sunday we are officially members of Second Baptist Church. It was a moment I will never forget.... We also have enrolled in a wonderful Sunday School Class called Nearly Wed and Newly Wed. We quickly discovered how resourceful it is going to be for our marriage; not to mention the support of newly wed Christian couples. Last Sunday we walked out of church saying “We’re never going to make it without being here”. A spiritual relationship has been the missing link in our marriage and I'm glad that we are wise enough to see it and are engaged in learning about this new venture for our marriage.

God is so good and works in mysterious ways, doesn’t he?

I’ve also come to realize that God’s timing is so perfect. After the hustle and bustle of the wedding and Grant and I getting our spiritual lives on track, we got the wonderful news that we’re pregnant! I had lab work done this morning and the nurse called me early afternoon to say my numbers look fabulous. Needless to say, we are ecstatic!!! The ladies at my office and I were jumping up and down in the middle of a conference call meeting today, celebrating. I go back on Monday to do another run of lab work and then an ultrasound in a couple weeks.

Please continue to pray for us as we go through the journey of rededicating our lives to Christ and for the wonderful gift that he’s given our family.

We love you!
