12 weeks!

Yesterday marked 12 weeks.  I am still feeling really good, although the muscles in my stomach have been aching this week as baby seems to be stretching out more.  I have been in maternity pants for almost two weeks now.  Today I really wanted curly fries and honey mustard....possibly my first craving.  lol.  It has been a rough week as the fatigue is hitting me very hard right now.  This week I have referred to the baby on multiple occasions as "she"....unintentionally.  It came out before I realized. 

Here is the photo for week 12....

I am not even sure where to begin in telling you about the birth of sweet Daniel.  On Monday night (June 24th) I started having contractions.  They were not consistent and were "tolerable" but did wake me from sleep.  I remained "uncomfortable" throughout Tuesday, but the contractions were still not consistent so I didn't worry too much.  By the afternoon I noticed that I wasn't feeling him move very much.  I took the kids to see "Toy Story 4" and had more than an hour and a half of loud noises and sitting time to realize that I wasn't feeling the baby.  We left the movie theater, went home and packed quick bags and headed to Louisville.  We dropped the kids off with my parents and Matthew and I went to the hospital.  They hooked me and baby up to all the machines and after a few hours and several drs visiting later they determined that baby was fine, I was definitely having contractions, but was not in active labor so they sent me "home...

Answered prayers lead to more prayers?

If you were hoping for week 27 post, sorry.  This isn't it.  :)  I have another day before that happens.  lol.  Today, I need to "unpack" my heart a bit.  Most of you know that in just a few weeks Matthew and I are moving to E-town to begin the next chapter of our journey together.  First, let me say that we are super excited.  We know that God has big plans for us while at E-town and we can't wait to see what He has in store for us.  But this move has really had me thinking and praying lately.  Once we move, my "identity" changes.  I have been praying about this change, not that I am worried about it being a bad thing, but just that I find my new self in this new role.  Today on the way home, I thought to myself "so, when we move, I am gonna need to find a pool.." (Don't laugh....I might be preggo, but I still like the sun and the water...) But after all of that crossed my mind, I remembered that I really don't "know" any one ...

Anxiety is beginning to set in...

25 weeks and a big ole dose of reality and anxiety.  Really.  I am not sure what is causing more anxiety at this point....could it be: #1.  The realization that we are now counting down (instead of up) until this baby girl has to come out of her current habitat.  #2.  I had a doctors appointment today and at the end of that appointment I scheduled my next appointment for 3 weeks from today....in which I realized that I would be out of school for summer. #3.  With the realization of being out for summer comes the thought that I will not only be out for summer...but for (hopefully) at least a year. #4.  Since I am going to be a mommy...I have to pack and move my classroom.  #5.  AND pack and move my house. #6.  Did I say pack and move my house.  Ugh. These are all excellent blessings...but in telling my story to friends and co workers over the last week or so, I realized that I am completely losing my self in the months ...
