time flies...

last night Michael led the prayer at our local Baccaularete(i cant spell) service so there was lots good-byes and memories and one thing that surprised me was the song that was sung at the end...yes...the one, the only "Friends are Friends Forever" by Michael W. Smith...i had to chuckle and think of the past conversations that were had on WFBU on this loverly song...HA HA HA!

This time of year is awesome, we are getting into the summer slower days, not any less work, just the pace at which it must be done...i am excited to see what this summer brings for our little growing family...drs appointments, vacations(lots of lake days), planning for the baby's room, visiting friends, maybe Sea World...things are always changing in the summer, and i for one and so excited!!!!

To those lazy days!!!!(Schools out in 6 days!!!! I sound like a kid)

things are growing....

well this word means alot of different things to me these days...

1. my body is growing...i can see the difference but only had a few comments though...it is crazy...
2. i have been growing spiritually...reading through the bible has just been really cool to read it all again, to become familiar with all of those stories...God has been showing me that they aren't just stories but someones realities...just normal people striving to be in right relationship with God
3. relationships...Michael and I have been just enjoying the fact of talking about new and exciting things that happen when you grow up: kids, possbilities of new homes, jobs and just everything...we have so enjoyed just loving each other...
4. my desire to be around family...i miss all of them...i hate all of the things that we miss because of distance, but love when we get to see all of them...so many times i just say that i want my mommy or daddy...hehe...i know im a whimp...but i miss them!!!
5. my love for cool photography...we got a new camera a few months ago and truly i have just enjoyed getting to know new angles, new techniques and playing with shadows....VERY COOL!

these are just a few things that i have noticed are growing....summer months are coming and i know my desire for the lake and 'floatin' as my mama likes to say will grow...ill keep you posted...and pics of my growing belly will emerge...eventually....

We are so excited and Blessed, everything looks normal and the heartbeat is strong !!!

 God is so good!

tired days...

these days i am just plain tired...thats all i can say...everyday i get up and need a nap within the hour...but i know that is normal...i should enjoy the excuse of sleeping...and i know...ENJOY SLEEP NOW because it will be a fleeting thing in the next few months....

God has been showing me alot through the book of Exodus...the Israelites after the exodus from egypt never really took the time to sit and realize the miracles that God was doing in front of their faces...I DON T WANT TO BE THAT WAY....i want to enjoy and relish in every little miracle that God does throughout our lives(and lately through being pregnant)...everyday is a new miracle for the little one growing inside of me...and i am still amazed that i get to be a part of this miracle....SO COOL!
