Exciting News!!!!

Well as some of you read my second to last blog about trying to add to the family, well yesterday I decided to take a pregnancy test (1 day early), I just felt a voice telling me to (I think it was God), and sure enough it was positive!!! I could not believe my eyes! I was convinced that I wasnt by the way I felt this month, and turns out I am! I bawled my eyes out for about 30 min. and took 3 more tests to make me believe it! Its finally sinking in that I am pregnant and we are having another baby :) I cant Thank or Praise God enough! I completely turned all of it over to him and trusted him, knowing that this will all happen in his time, and his timing is perfect! Sure enough he showed me it is! Just before my birthday/christmas too! Makes it the BEST birthday/christmas EVER! I remember feeling the same exact way when I found out I was pregnant for Eli (I found out on Dec. 7th). Thats another thing!!! My due date is Elijah's birthday! July 25th! God's timing is not only perfect, but very humerus. It will be interesting to see when this little one decides to arrive. Eli will either be having an early birthday party or a late one. We will see! 

My first OB appointment is on Monday Dec. 10th. Cant wait for the first appt. I will be 7 1/2 weeks then. Too early to hear the heart beat on the doppler, but it will be SO great when that time comes. I pray for this baby daily! Cant wait to find out if its a him or her. I want to end my blog with a verse I read this morning that is perfect for me right now........ James 1:17 says Every generous act and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights. Thank you Lord for you blessed gift! 

Our little Bug turns 2!

So on this day at 3:12 a.m. God blessed us with a 7 lb 2 oz. 20 in. long beautiful baby boy!!! When I was pregnant I remember thinking, I wonder who he will look like? I wonder if he will be a laid back little one? What will his personality be like? And the list of questions go on. So when he was born my first question of what will he look like was answered! He looks just like his daddy! You would have never know I had anything to do with it LOL! He is laid back (other than his occasional fits that are thrown lol). His personality is so sweet, funny, and of course extra cute, and so smart! Man! Its hard to wrap my mind around how old Eli is, but it really goes fast with the second child! I think that is, is because you have another to take care of as well, and so it just makes your life that much busier and makes time go that much faster! So I want to say Happy Birthday to our sweet, lovable, silly, talkative,  little boy that loves Peppa Pig cartoon, french fries (so for his birthday we will get some McDonalds for dinner), cookies, and dancing! You are such a blessing to our family and thank God everyday for giving you to us!! We love you more than you will ever know!
