Way overdue update!
Warning: This post updates you on the entire summer. Pics finally included. It is not for the faint at heart, but is my attempt to catch up on blogging and get you all up to date on all the most important stuff. If you ask me, its worth making it to the end…but dont skip there! You can click on any of the pics to enlarge it.
First, my bday. Jeff took me to longhorns.
This is Jason’s girlfriend, Liz, and I at her bday celebration (we are 1 day apart in bdays) and the 2nd pic is just for funsies.
Jeff and I enjoyed dinner w/ some good friends, Jeff and Carrie.
Then we enjoyed Central Gwinnett’s 10 year reunion.
And i have enjoyed 2 girls trips this september, w/o jeff. I did feel bad for leaving him twice! The 1st trip was w/ girls from church and we went to Pensecola FL, where my friend Beverly owns a beautiful home. The birds were stalking us for our lunch!
My 2nd trip was to Myrtle beach with high school/ church pals.
We also went to the fair!
But most importantly, we found out that we are growing our family!
At a little over 5 weeks
Just past 7 weeks
And most recently at 9 wks 2 days.
We are due may 3rd and i am 10 weeks preggo today. We have been quite nervous becuase of our history, but are SO grateful! I have been clinging to Isaiah as I posted earlier:
Do not remember the things of the past, nor consider the things of old. Behold I am doing a new thing and it will spring forth, shall you not know it?!!!
I am spoiled to so many ultrasounds because of being "high risk"! I wont have another until 12 weeks and then not again until 20~ i’ll miss seeing him/her grow during that 8 weeks! The obgyn gave me a dvd of the last ultrasound and he (for sake of time, i call it a he for now) kicked his little leg! I’ve gotta admit that it made it all to real to me then! We are calling him our little gummie bear.
God is so good. Not because He has given this to us. But because he just is. And he didnt have to give us this life, but did! Definitely undeserved.
I am nasty nauseated all day 24/7 and i’ll be honest…i’m tired of it! But i know that SO many women have it so much worse! And i know its a good sign. But i’ll be glad when food is appealing again!
I will post pics of the "baby bump" when i can blame the bump on the baby. Lets face it, right now, its all me! haha!
I KNEW it! Congrats! So excited for yall!

Can I just say you brought tears to my eyes when I read this. PRAISE BE TO GOD! That is wonderful…I am so happy for you guys. I know all to well what you went through, but it continues to give me hope that there is a light at the end of the tunnel as I continue to wait on HIS TRUE AND GOOD TIME. You and Jeff and the little one are in our prayers.
