Happy Birthday Dear

Today is my wonderfu, sweet, loving, adoring husbands 28th b'day.
He is everything i've ever hoped for and everything i've ever needed.
Stephen,
I thank God for you daily and for the love that you have given me.
I can't wait to see what a wonderful father you are going to be to our child
I know we have so many more years down the road to be together and to be a family.
I know God has a special plan for us and we just need to trust him. Thank you for
being the man that I need and no matter what I'm extremely proud of who
you are and who you are becoming.

Happy Birthday sweetheart, I love you.

A little update

Okay so I have gotten some good ideas on baby names.

We are still almost positive about the girl name (Addyson Kailee)

But here are some ideas that I got from some people and I'm going to try them out.

What do you think about these three names?:

Reese Parker
Reese Ashton
Reese Andrew

I want to thank everyone for their help and I would love some more ideas to go with Reese. Stephen pretty much has his heart set on Reese for a first name.
I'm sure we can find something good to go with it.

i'm secretly praying for a girl ;)

So i'm getting kind of thick around the middle and it's in this stage where you don't want to look fat but you aren't big enough to look pregnant, it's frustrating. Especially when your normal clothes feel like they are closing in on you.......so uncomfortable...:(
Also did any of you get the question of the day "how are you feeling?" all day long when you were working while pregnant?
Do they want the truth that i'm sick to my stomach all day long and miserable, ready to fall asleep at the drop of the hat....or do they want me to say "i'm okay"?
I think i'm going to hurt the next person that asks me that question.

So that is that...I only have 6 more days of work before vacation and I'm so looking forward to it.
That is what is pulling me through these next 2 weeks.....
Other then that everything is GREAT!!!!
Until next time, have a great week.

Such Sweet Pictures!

Okay so I have to brag just a little.
My friend sent me two pictures that I HAVE to post because they are the most adorable pictures in the world. They have the cutest little boy. Such a beautiful family, and the sweetest I might add.
This is Jason, Natalie and Jackson (he is almost 5 months)



This is of Jackson he is so cute!!

I'm tired

So I have to tell you that getting up at 5:30 every morning for 5 days straight every week is really hard when you are pregnant and you feel sick ALL day long. This part has really drained me and everyday I get home at 4:30 I end up sleeping til 6 and then it's off to bed by 10 again.
I feel like i'm worth nothing right now, and I'm praying that the next 4 weeks go by really fast.
It's wierd thinking about being pregnant, but after I heard the heartbeat and saw our little baby it became more real. I still can't believe it's really happening. Today at work the CFO asked me if I was pregnant and I told him yes and he gave me a hug and congratulated me. For a minute there I thought he was going to rub my tummy. I'm not sure if i'm going to like that very much, especially when I get really big. A friend from work is going to get me a shirt for Christmas that says " It's not a genie in a bottle so don't rub me". I think that would be hilarious.
Anyways I just thought I would share my thoughts while I was still awake. Please pray for me, as I'm having a really time working feeling like I do.
Thanks for everyone's comments and thoughts and prayers, I appriciate it all so much.
You guys are awesome!!!

Names

Well since I told you we were going to have a baby I might as well tell you the names we have been thinking about.

If it's a girl we would like to name her:
Addyson Kailee

If it's a boy we like the name:
Reese
Ashton

But we don't have any middle names for those.
If you have any idea please feel free to share!
Thanks for the many congrats and the prayers, we both appriciate it all so much.

Have a great Hump Day.

The Cat is now out of the bag!

So we've been keeping a secret from all of you bloggers since October 2nd and finally we are ready to share it with the world.
Stephen and I are expecting our first baby!! Crazy I know...it was a HUGE shock to us as well.
We found out on the 2nd of October but I couldn't get into the Dr. until today and so after looking at everything and seeing that the baby is just fine, and the heart beat is strong and he/she is just wonderful we decided it was time to share this wonderous news. Aside from being sick for the past 3-4 weeks, it's been a blessing upon us. God is amazing and I know that He has been waiting for just the right time for us to be parents, and this is it. Please pray that everything goes according to His plan and we have our perfect little baby next year.
I'm officially 7 weeks and 5 days. ( I thought I was farther along but the measurments say this) and we are due May 31, 2006.

There is some bad news, or some down news as I like to call it. I was informed today that I have an almost size of a football sist on my right ovary (14cm). I'm really nervous about this, but the Dr. is going to keep me under watch. I'm going to have another ultrasound around 15 weeks..so I will probably get a couple more than usually. I'm excited about that because I can see the heartbeat again. It's uncomfortable and the Dr. said I may need a C-Section when the time comes if the Sist is still there so they can take out both the baby and the sist at the same time, I'm praying it goes down like she thinks it will.
So please pray that everything works out there. She said it won't hurt the baby but I will be in some pain if it does rupture. Some great news on such a great day huh?
But we are excited and can't wait to see what God has for us.

Thanks for reading this and being excited along with us. Thrilled cannot explain the feelings we have now. For now here is a picture of our little blob aka our little baby bean.

Just a small night post

It's late, and I'm tired and I'm ready for my vacation. Only 13 more work days and i'm free to relax in the mountains.
I can already picture it:

Sitting in the hottub staring at the nightlights of the city with the mountains in the background while it's crisp and cool outside with some hot chocolate. Now that's a dream come true.

Well I have a big long day ahead of me tomorrow so I'm going to hit the sack. I'll post more tomorrow. Sleep tight all of Ya'll.

A case of the Monday's

This weekend was a nice relaxing one for us. It's nice to have those once in a while.
There was quite a bit of drama going on, but I guess you can't always have a perfect weekend.
It was fun nonetheless.

The rain has really been coming down today, it's a mess outside.
It actually took me and my car pool buddy 30 minutes to get into the parking lot at work today. We were in the area, just couldn't figure out how to get in without going through high water. I thought, this is crazy, why are we fighting to get in to have the chance to get stuck....we are sooo smart.
Hopefully we will get to leave early because we are in a bad flooding area, it would be nice to take off a bit early.
Nothing new going on, just wanted to take a break and post something, I'll try to post more tomorrow. I hope everyone stays dry and remember if the water looks high don't try to drive through it.
Have a great Monday.

I thought I would share a pretty rose I found on google.com

Happy Birthday to my brother

I have one quick post and then I'm out for the night.

Today is my brother Ryan's 18th b'day. I can't believe he is 18 already. It seems like he was just this little red headed kid who hated it when I pulled his hair. The little boy who always threw himself on the floor screaming when he didn't get his way. The little boy who was in his terrible two's for many many years. I really felt for my mom up until he was probably 15 or 16. He has turned into this amazing man of God whom I really look up to. It's funny i'm 8 years older and I look up to him, I never would seen that coming, he is supposed to be looking up to me. Ha
Well today is special non the less and I love him as much as I can love my brother plus a little more. I'm blessed because he can always cheer me up and encourage me and just listen to me rant and rave. Yes he is very special to me.
I love you Ryan and Happy 18th B'day.

PS: Now you can meet me for lunch!!!!!!!

Here is a picture of him and his wonderful girlfriend. I love this one.

Try it-It works!

Another day for my tear off calendar:

Stop wishing for things
you complain you have not
And start making the best
of all that you've got

Miracles

The word of the day on my tear off calendar:

Miracles are all around within our sight and touch and sound.

That is so true, there are miracles everwhere.

Happy Monday
