Noah

As I kissed Noah goodnight and laid him in his crib, I realized just how impossible it is to explain in words how much I adore my son. You always hear that it is unexplainable the love you have for your child, but until you experience it for yourself you can't possibly imagine it. I feel so amazed and blessed that God trusted me with such a beautiful life. I just pray that Noah will grow up and know that my love is unending. He is such a fabulous gift that will continue to bring so.much joy to our lives. These pictures are a constant reminder of his incredible personality. I couldn't ask for a better little boy. I love you Noah.

Blessed

Every time I look at my sons face I realize just how much God loves me. There have been so many times when I have thought so little of myself, felt so unworthy of the love and grace given by God. But when I look at Noah and see just how much he loves me, how pure, true, and unconditional it is, I am reminded that God's love is even stronger. At 6 months my son doesn't know all the wrong that I have done, God on the other hand knows what I have done and what I will do and he loves me anyway. Now that is truly beautiful. I hope to have the same undying, compassionate, and forgiving love for my son and husband.

Our Little Face!

I can't believe that I am officially 30 weeks. Our little one will be here before we know it. This sure has been an interesting journey of ups and downs. Nothing prepares you for pregnancy haha. No matter how much you read you don't really know anything until you go through it! But that's not really news to anyone who has kids I am sure. What is news however, is that our little boy has yet to give us a good ultra sound picture! Every time we go to the doctor I think he makes the decision to hide. It's almost as if he has decided that he wants to make a grand entrance! So that being said, this is the best sneak peak we have gotten. Hope you all enjoy it! 

 

The Sound of A Hearbeat...

Greg and I went to the doctor again on the 15th to have another ultrasound since on my first visit they had a hard time seeing the little one. We were just excited to get another peak at our growing baby but were so surprised when we got so much more than that. They told us we were going to have to do a different kind of ultrasound because of they way my uterus is positioned and of course we went along with it. As we were watching the screen we were startled by a sound, the sound of a heartbeat! At first I didn't think that could possibly be it, it was so fast and strong. I then realized that God is pretty incredible, to think that something so tiny, 3/4 of an inch mind you, could make such a sound. Greg and I were so blessed to be able to hear our baby's heartbeat way before people normally do! I think it really helped make it more real to us. I have been feeling pretty good give and take a day here and there so it almost felt like it wasn't real yet... It was such a beautiful moment to be holding the love of my life's hand and hear such an incredible sound. I can't wait for all of the other moments to come. Like the first time the baby moves or kicks and of course finding out just exactly what we're having! The nursery is finally emptied and cleaned, but it looks so empty. I seriously can't wait to be able to start decorating it because as of now it is just antagonizing me! Well friends and family we love you all and will update you the next time something really amazing happens.

The First of Many!

Hello Everyone!

This is my very first post on Greg and I's new blog. I wanted to create one for all of our dear friends and family who aren't always with us. Some of our friends have yet to see photos of our wedding or our honeymoon so I will be adding those just as soon as I have some time. And of course I will be adding pictures of all of the fun stuff that is going to happen over the next 9 months! Pictures of my growing tummy, the work we are doing to get the loft and nursery ready for our little one, and i'm sure some funny pictures of Greg along the way. He can't help but be silly. Along with silly, he is amazing. I decided that I needed to clean the window sills in the nursery last week and was upset that the windows themselves on the outside of our two story house were dirty... Leave it to Greg to climb out the window with the broom handle which had a rag attached to it. He is such a great Husband. Who else would risk falling off of the roof just to clean the windows that our baby will soon be looking out of? I am truly blessed to have the life that I have and can't wait to share all the details with you. So long for now!
