Okay, so my healthy eating has been going well. I had to clarify though that healthy eating for me didn’t cut out sweets and such! It was just an effort to eat more fruits and veggies. Which has been great!
In case you haven’t heard yet, we are having a BOY!!! We are soooo excited about having another boy and I can see how having boys could become addictive. As I was sitting out in my driveway this afternoon in the warm sunshine, clipping coupons, Hayden was running around “shootin’ hoops.” It was all so enjoyable and made me sooo excited about watching the two of them running around together one day! It will be fun for them to share a room together, too. We joked about putting the baby into Hayden’s room immediately so that Hayden could get a taste of his own medicine. (Hayden was and still is not the greatest sleeper.) We are still working on a name. Well, we haven’t worked very hard yet. Last time we changed our mind when I was about 8 months pregnant. So I am not going to rush naming him. It will come at the right time.
We are so thankful for a healthy pregnancy! Sometimes, I am still surprised by being pregnant. I get overwhelmed at what a miracle it is that God has created. And knowing that He is in total control over it all is very humbling. It is also very freeing. About a month ago I was faced with the pain again from our miscarriage last year. I began praying that God would comfort that pain and loss and that he would heal me in his perfect time. About 10 days later a lady came up to me on Sunday morning at our church and said that God had laid me on her heart. She wanted to start a small group for women who have been through a miscarriage(s), a birth loss, or infertility. All in God’s perfect timing! Yes, the Lord is close to the broken-hearted. He definitely hears our cry.
Well, it is probably about time to get started on the nursery. Thankfully, we can use a lot of what we have already! The main thing will be new curtains! So I guess it is off to the sewing machine! But I have to finish my other curtains first. And probably Hayden’s room too. So much fun ahead!!!
I am so excited that you are having a boy! We are praying for you all as you are going through this pregnancy! I am so glad to hear that everything is going so perfectly! Love you!
I am so glad to hear that everything is going well! Two boys will be just precious! I too like you have been trying to eat well but just cant cut out my sweets! I need to come and see your new house very soon! I bet it is just beautiful! Praying for yall!
