Update on little baby ;-) and us!!

I haven't written much about this pregnancy, but a lot has been happening. I usually don't get sick at all not even in first three months. This time though I have had my fair share of hugging the oh so lovely white bowl in my bathroom. I now understand the term morning sickness (or more like all day, whenever it wants to come sickness). Even though I am only 11 weeks tomorrow I think they may be off a bit b/c I am definitely feeling flutters and felt a pretty large kick the other day. Oh the signs of life. It warms my heart and brings comfort every time I feel it. My heart feels like it skips a beat. I never get tired of those feelings and it's always like the first time with every baby.

God has been good to us. We needed a van so everyone can fit in the care at one time and the first time we went looking we found a perfect deal and the Lord put a peace in our hearts about it.It has been a great blessing thus far. We didn't realize how big our family really is till we now have room, but not much.

We also needed a vacation (who doesn't). We decided this past March not to go on our yearly, one week in FL., trip. We really wanted too, but did not have the money and now that we have bought a van we really don't have anything extra. God is teaching me how to spend wisely and be frugal. Something I am not so good at. My mother-in-law just said that she wanted to help us with the shopping and budgeting and I am so excited about that. Anyway, back to the vacation. David has a work trip coming up and it is in the very place we vacation every year. So we decided to all go. David receives the accommodations, gas, and his meals reimbursed so this trip is costing virtual nothing. That is an answer from the Lord. Our family really needs sometime to spend together. I am so thankful to God for this opportunity.

We have costume pictures but I haven't taken them off the camera yet. Soon I will post them. Hope all is well with you guys!!! Blessings
