Hey everyone!  Well I haven't written much on here as of late.  I have been feeling like a bum lately.  I just feel like I could sleep all day, which is seems most days I lay around too much.  When I was pregnant with my last one I worked so I didn't have a choice, but now that my bed and the couch are easily accessible, I just feel like flopping down..  Having a two year old and being pregnant is pretty tiring lately.  After a tantrum I feel like I could take a half hour nap.  Oh the joy of being a mother, and I am serious.  What a privelage to have all of these memories of being in our youth and being a mommy.  Christmas is right around the corner.  Time flys.  I am trying to make sure that my two year old knows the real meaning of Christmas, and not that he wants a batman at Christmas, which he keeps telling me.  It is interesting to see at such an early age the desire after material things and just their little sin nature.  I mean I have a hard time myself at times to not want to buy something new or that at the moment would make me feel good.  For a child that doesn't know a Saviour the desire can only be worse.  I just pray that with age my little one will understand that material things are useless and will only be burnt up in the end.  As long as my husband and I set that example ourselves and through the work of God.  Well I had better get going and get my things done before sleep becomes very tempting.  Have a wonderful day.

Hey everyone.  I haven't written on here in quite awhile.  Since my last write, we have moved into our new apartment which I love the renovations they did.  I still have some boxes I need to finish, but Im kinda waiting till my husband is out of school to finish those, I just am burnt out on boxes after the move.  It is weird to think that I am preparing to have another little one on the way.  That will be different to have two little ones, I am very excited to see the new ones personality and how they will look and all.  Eli has quite the personality, a fiery one at that, so I can't wait to see the next.  Praise the Lord we just had a new little on join our church family last night.  In the next few months we will have many more popping up or out rather.   Well the holidays have arrived, bring on the food.  I think this is my favorite time of year, for food.  I could just eat and eat, which could be dangerous.  But isn't that what Thanksgiving for. Well that and being thankful for all the magnificent things that God had blessed us with, and celebrating with family.  God has definitly been blessing us, just the fact that we breath, and live each day is a blessing, and that we can proclaim His name with joy.  I just have thought about all the beautiful healthy children that God has blessed us with at church.  All normal, healthy, and with godly parents.  What a blessing.  The fact that we have a place to live, food in our cabinets, clothes to wear, electricity, water,  cars, boy to we have it good.  How often I take these things for granted.  I don't think that I think about it enough, and the fact that I wasn't born in a hut in a third world country, with no clean water, no clothes, disease, not knowing when my next meal would come from, the fact that I was born in america is a blessing.   Sorry if Im listing off quite a bit, but it was something on my mind.  I hope everyone has a wonderful day, and a Happy Thanksgiving.

Hey everyone, I am still in the process of packing up my apartment. It has been good though. I am finding things that I haven't seen since we moved here. Im finding it kinda hard to get alot done lately.  I have not mentioned on my last post by on this past Saturday, I took a test , and it was positive, so it looks like there might be another one on the way.  I haven't gone to the doctors yet, but I have been feeling all the symptoms.  I feel like I've done a ton of sit-ups, my stomach is sore, and I want to poop out after I do anything that exerts much energy.   Not to mention weird things are making me feel sick.  I was watching a show with Elijah, and the kids were eating popsicles ,and still as I think about it now I feel grossed out. Weird huh?  I praise the Lord for the gift of life.  My hubby has been sooo good too. He has been helpful with dinner and giving much needed back rubs.  It seems we have alot going on at one time.  But Praise the Lord, He is faithful to not give me more that I can handle.  I praise the Lord for the many new children that our entering our church at this time.  God is the giver of life, and He is giving Immanuel abundantly. Oh the little souls, I pray that He will raise them up to serve Him with their life.  I can't wait to see what all these little ones sprout up to be.  We hope into mighty oaks of righteousness ( I love the names of the nursery by the way).   Well I had better get to packing and cleaning out from under my bed, who knows what I might find under there.  Oh yeah I have an awesome praise to tell about.  My sister had her baby, Josiah, last week, and he is healthy, but I want to tell you how the Lord protected this little one.  My sister had high blood pressure, gestational diabetes, a umbilical cord with one less vain than what is normal( which means less oxygen), hardly any amniotic fluid ( they couldn't even test it because they could poke the baby,  was delivered cesearan,and he was born five weeks early. If this does not attest to the graciousness of God and His sovereignty, my sister called me just praising the Lord for his graciousness and His mercy in delivering this healthy baby.  Praise the Lord for His lovingkindness!!!

Hey everyone, it seems I haven't been on here in quite awhile.  My husbands parents were here last week,and we has such a blast, and it was relaxing.  We got to eat alot of yummy food.  In the same week we found out that we will be moving to our new apartment.  The great thing is it is right across the sidewalk, but I will still have to pack my stuff to carry across the sidewalk.  I didn't realize how much stuff I had accumulated. It seems like lately my fellow brothers and sisters have all had alot going on.  I am so excited for new babys that will be joining our church soon.  Praise the Lord for children, what a joy they bring!  Well I can feel my energy level crashing, so I had better get some more packing done before my little critter wakes up. 

 Psalm 66:1,2 " Shout for joy to God, all the earth; sing the glory of His name; give him the glorious praise."
