    I can't believe she is now 3 weeks old!  She weighed 8 lbs. 6 oz. when I weighed her today. 

    We love this precious gift!

    Here is a picture of her ready to go to church for the first time!  She slept...while mommy held her breath. :)

    Just had to put this picture of her and her cousin.  Isaiah is 7 weeks older then her. 
    They were NOT enjoying this little photo shoot.

  •   I'm really bored today!  Clint is doing a bit of work this morning.  He needs to get out or he will go crazy.  My house is clean, who feels like baking on a Saturday morning, all my books-magazines-newspapers are read...  My mom said to be thankful that I can still move around and I don't have a terminal illness.  I do have a lot to be thankful for and this is when I need to get out a pen and paper and right down everything I have to be thankful for!

    I thought I would post a few pictures of our "tiny" nursery!  I can't wait to put it to use.  We don't have anything on the walls yet but we want to wait and see what we have first!

    Here is a before picture of our nursey.  And yes, he did all the work!  Thanks, honey!

    And here are the after pictures...

  •   A friend sent me this poem last night:

    Courage, Sister
    God grant you the courage to face this new birth;
    He planned it so special, A plan of great worth.
    It causes some anguish, some dread and some fear,
    But the fruit of it all is someone so dear.
     
    God's using you sister, to labor for Him,
    O don't let the vision die out or wax dim.
    You'll hold in your arms (Lord willing that is)
    A bundle immortal, A gift that is His,
    He's lent it to you, He's trusting you'll keep
    Your charge that is sacred, His blessing you'll seek.
     
    God bless you, my sister, give strength this last while,
    For the burden grows heavy and tiresome each mile,
    I pray you'll endure it- the end is in view,
    For surely it's worth it, for someone so new!
     
    The poem was good timing since we are trying to be patient in waiting for this dear baby of ours.  We still have one more week to go...but according to our Doctor last week, we should have been holding this baby for 5 days.  Now I feel like I'm over due!  I'm just hanging out in my house trying to keep busy.  Oh, what to do today?
     
    Last night my husband took me out on a date!  I wasn't to sure about going but we did and had a great time.  He "borrowed" his brothers car and we went to Montezuma (spicy food brings on labor :).  We love that place and it was delicious!  Then we went for a drive past a house that was on Extreme Makeover.  We couldn't see to much because it was dark.  Then we stopped at Weis for a few groceries an then came back home. 
     
    We awoke this morning and are still at home awaiting this baby!  We can't wait to see what the Doctor says tomorrow.
    Here is a picture of the car we took last night!  We decided it's time we upgrade! :)

    And, another picture of me and my baby...

    Hope you all have a good day!

    I also have a new nephew born to my husband's sister!  Sorry, no pitures of him!  He is very cute also!

    5 more weeks until we will have a dear child of our own to hold!  We can't wait!

    Last weekend was our babyshower!  Our families did a great job planning it! 

    Thanks to all who came and for all the gifts! 

    Yummy cake my mom made! (below)

  • Well, I decided to update.  Actually the real reason is, is that I'm home alone and already surfed xanga and facebook and was feeling guilty for checking out everyone elses sites and not updating ours! 

    So this morning we decided to have Clint's parents for a "breakfast" supper.  I made these yummy blueberry bars (the ones I took a picture of to put on here and now the camera's not at the house!).  Clint helped me make scrapple, scrambled eggs, bacon, french toast casserole, hashbrowns, fruitsalad, and blueberry bars!  So yummy!  Breakfast is our favorite! 

    We had a nice supper!  Then all the men left...  Someone from church house was on fire.  That's when the camera disappeared...  Sounds like the house is no longer liveable - Keep them in your prayers! 

    Can't wait until my husband gets home.  Have a good night!
