An Update is in order

Well, I cannot believe I am skipping my nap to write a blog, yet after reading some of my girlfriends' in Tennessee I thought I better fill everyone in on our happenings. January 2009 is almost a part of history. Before I know it February 1st will be here.

The news is out for public knowledge. We are expecting Baby #3 in August. I go to my first appt with the midwife on Jan 29th, so we will find out the exact due date (somewhere around Aug. 10th). I have had a totally different pregnancy than what I experienced with the boys. My evenings are the hardest part of the day, and I eat ALL the time. Anticipating the 2nd trimester. Last night Stone said he wanted a Sisser, so hopefully we will be announcing a baby girl.

Stone is doing great. He just has a loving heart for his brother, an answer of prayer. On our way home from Grant's delivery, Tyler and I were in the car alone with Grant and prayed that God would knit their hearts together as brothers to love and protect one another. Now that Grant is walking they're just having a blast together, and I find great joy in going to the bathroom by myself. :)

Life is grand and Psalm 100:1 and 127:3-5 are scriptures that have blessed my heart in so many ways. That my voice will shout for joy and my heart will receive the blessing of children even if the days are long and presented with challenges. Tyler and I are united with God and one another and that is a huge blessing for our family. Without the Lord, I truly have no idea where I would be. This is all written with a heart full of gratitude. Be blessed and may your life be enriched by God's touch.
