The Good News

Ever have a really good day where everything seems to go smoothly. No frustrations, no drama, no worries, and then BAM....bad news hits you like a ton of bricks? Or maybe like a dump truck carrying a ton of bricks? We've all had those types of days and today was like that for me. I've wallered around in self pity, doubt, sadness for a good hour and then I remembered that there is good news! (Why don't I remember the good news before I get sad?)

Here's the good news....
1. Jesus loves me.
2. God has my life planned out.
3. His plan is perfect.

I've gotta keep repeating this to myself!

There's lots of other good news too! For example...
1. I have a loving husband and a precious daughter...the two people on this earth who I love most!

If I really had the time I could list about a million other pieces of good news, but the ones mentioned in this post are gonna keep me going.

So thankful I chose to follow Christ. He's blessed me in countless ways.

My Lovely Baby Bump!

My belly is getting bigger and bigger each day. Even though I haven't gained any weight by the doctor's scale...it's definitely growing. There has been a request to see the baby bump, so here it is in all its glory! Enjoy! This is me today at 16 weeks.

The Week is Here!

We can't believe this is the week we will see our daughter. Some of you may be thinking, "What? How do you know? Your due date isn't even until next week!" Well, let me update those of you who may be thinking this. Last week, on Wednesday, we went to the doctor, hoping and praying that my body would be showing some progress towards having a baby. The doctor checked and informed us that the baby is still kinda high, and that I'm not 1 cm dilated, but I'm not 0 cm either. So she told us it was time to make a plan. Here's what she came up with. She said that if I am dilated 2-3 cm by this Wednesday, then she'll send me over to the hospital right then and start inducing me. But, if I'm not 2-3 cm then the following day, Thursday, she would do a c-section. She knew we were going to be on Fall Break and that we'd love to spend a couple of free extra days off with Ava so she said we could do it this week. She's going out of town on Fri...

January's Over.....What?!?

Where has the time gone? I can not believe January is just about over. Things have been crazy busy in our home, but still great nonetheless. Ava's getting so big! She's rolling over from back to belly and belly to back, she's playing with toys (her favorite is a monkey we named Milo), she's laughing and "talking" all the time; her personality is really starting to shine through. I can't believe our baby is going to be 4 months old in about a week. CRAZY! Other updates on our girl.....she's sleeping through the night, we were blessed that she started doing that at 6 weeks ( Babywise really helped with this!) She's getting rice cereal in two bottles a day during the week and she's also taking Prevacid . Both of these are because of her horrible reflux. They seem to be helping quite a bit. She spends the weekdays with our wonderful babysitter here at home and they love each other! In March she'll start going to daycare. I am a little nervous ...
