So, yeah, I'm finally blogging--putting a comment on facebook is so much quicker and easier. But Maggie is dying to blog about something and said I had to do mine before she would do hers.
Let me see if I can find words to express... The most important thing I have to say is a BIG thank you to the Lord for His incredible faithfulness and timing. God, thank you, thank you for this blessing. We are so so ecstatic and excited about the fact that we are pregnant. I am 5 weeks along and am due November 26th. A Thanksgiving baby---how appropriate!
And as Angie pointed out earlier, we won't have another Christmas without our baby. Wow, it really struck me.... after this past Christmas I bought some Pottery Barn stockings on sale, 4 of them to be exact...2 for us and extras for kiddos that I was hoping would come along soon. I never had bought Jantz and I any, cause I just really didn't see a point for us just to have some but knew I'd love 'em when we had kids. Sure can't wait to have names put on 'em!!
And, last night I was looking on the internet at baby stuff--just whatever I wanted to look at, nothing in particular really--but it's like it hit me so hard that I was getting to look at it for me for reals this time, not just hoping or setting aside, but seriously I could buy it and actually will need it. Wow, so God, again, thank you. For everyone who prayed and even fasted for us, I am so humbled and so very grateful!! Please keep praying!
Here's a verse I've looked at every day for a couple years now... Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished. Luke 1:45
Also, week after next I get to have my first sonogram...wow, I can't believe it! By the way, did you know Baby Louder is already the size of a sesame seed and it's little heart starts beating this week. Wow wow wow!!!!!
Oh yeah, and I already have to go to the bathroom all the time and am constantly hungry. But I'm certainly not complaining!! Just really have to go to the store QUICK! Oh, and oh my gosh our house is a wreck--what the heck, this is not normal, and I think it's driving us both crazy--not good not good! One more thing, I have a feeling it'll be a boy, just a feelin. :)
