Henry is 10 months old today!

This Pic is sooo cute. He is just turning into a little man...
He is using his new hammer to "fix" the box.:)

I was in the kitchen and he was in his room and really quiet. That always worries me:) So I walked in and found his laundry (clean) basket dumped over and he was laying in the middle of all the nicely clean and folded cloths. He's trouble!

3 Great Years...

Yesterday was our 3 year anniversary. Oh how wonderful those three years have been. I thank God everyday, sometimes many, for blessing my life with my wonderful husband. I don't know what I would do without him. He is so good to me. He loves me and more than that he loves the Lord, which I admire so much. He has given me my beautiful son, and he makes my life complete. What a wonderful daddy he is. Henry is so lucky to have a dad that is so involved and loving.

Kyle I love you more and more each day. The last three years have been the best of my life and I can' t wait to spend the next 50 or so with you! Thank you for taking such good care of this family and making me sooo happy!

It was a good day. We went out to eat and shopped around a bit. I know it doesn't sound very exciting but really just being together is so much fun. Plus we have a baby now and even more important and budget. It was so nice.

On the pregnancy front, I have started to feel our little one move. I wasn't sure at first because it is softer than it was with Henry but it's the baby for sure. :) I think that it is wonderful and I can't wait to know if it's a little boy or girl tickling me in there!

A Women's Choice Banquet...

Last Thursday night was the annual banquet for A Women's Choice Resource Center and Necole's Place. It was awesome! I know every year we are in for great speakers and moving testimonies. But this one was even better. Our main speaker was Ryan Dobson. He was truly amazing. I knew he would be good but who ever thought that he would be as good as his dad, who is one of my family, life, and parenting heroes, but he was. He spoke the truth and spoke it strong. He was wonderful. Bob Russel was another speaker who is always great. Becky Edmonson spoke for a moment and she is full of energy for the Lord and for the unborn. And one of our girls from Necole's Place gave her testimony which had us all in tears. Who am I kidding , we were all in tears the who time! But the biggest surprise and most wonderful part was that their was an unexpected guest, Dr. James Dobson was there!!!! He was in town just by coincidence, for a conference. Everyone at the center hoped that he would end up coming in for a visit that night, but none of us were holding our breath. God is good. He gave him the chance to come, see his son speak, visit theses centers, and a chance for all of us to get to see him. I was sooo thrilled. I can't explain to you how excited I was. I just love him. I own so many of his books and listen to him on the radio almost every day. What a treat that was. And to top it all off the group at our table was wonderful. The fellowship and conversation was priceless. What a wonderful night for so many people to be together to help support the saving of all those babies and their moms. By the end of this year A Women's Choice and most of all God will be responsible for saving over 500 babies. I can't think of a better reason to get together and enjoy a evening!!

15 weeks 1 day....

I had my October Dr. appt yesterday and everything looks great. His/Her little heart was a strong and healthy 146 beats per min. Dr. Nett said everything looks perfect. I was glad, I'm always glad. But the most exciting part wast hat I set up my ultra sound on Nov. 12th so that is when we "hopefully" find out if it's a him/her. I can't wait.
I am feeling really good right now. I'm trying to enjoy it because I know it will be the best I will feel for a long time. Henry is having some sleeping issues right now so needless to say I am getting up four or five times a night. I'm not sure why he is doing this. He has always been such a great sleeper. I mean he was sleeping through the night at seven weeks. I dunno, I hope it's just a stage. I'm trying to stay joyful, even in those moments, and really enjoy him though. I know it won't last forever and one day when he is "too cool" to love on momma I will wish for those moments at night that he just wanted to be cuddled.
He is doing sooo good. Learning so much each day. Now he is talking up a storm. Well, talking in his own language. He babbles all day long. I love it, it is so cute. His favorite sounds to make are Bubbb, Dada ( yep he says it but doesn't know what it means yet ) and he likes to roll his toung. He also is working really hard on standing up without anything to pull up on. He made it yesterday for just a second and then fell. But he tries all the time. He will be walking in no time. And then, oh boy, will I be in for it.
Well, I guess that's it for now.

On the move....

















This is what Henry spends the majority of his day doing. He crawles around the house looking for things to pull up on and stand. Thats all he wants to do is stand around. :) He's really busy these days.
