23 weeks

I am sorry that it has taken me so long to put up another blog. God has been very good in that he has had many people be gracious to me. It is exciting to see my family and friends step up and be so generous. I already have three baby showers that people want to through me. God has given more than I could ever imagine. God has been by my side through everything. I have had some problems at work and He has been by my side getting through that. It has also been so cool to grow closer to my husband! Ben has been so amazing through everything. He has been very unselfish, giving, and kind. I am so glad that I am going through this experience with him.

Well my stomach has grown so much. It is exciting to see it grow and know that my son is growing and every week that passes is another week that I'll be able to meet my son.

We almost bought a crib yesterday but it fell through and we are just waiting on God to provide the best crib. We still have a lot to do in the baby room. We have to take the computer, filing cabinet, and all the other junk out to finally be able to put a crib, dresser, changing table, etc. Ben is going to paint one more wall green and one white. I think that we are going to try to put up pictures of animals on the white wall. Not sure yet though. We are going to leave the futon and the cooler in because of the convenience of having a bed and water in the room. The rocking chair is in and it feels kinda like a baby room. We are already collecting stuff that people have given us. The room is coming along and it looks good.

The dogs and cat know that something is going on and they are really touchy feely and want a lot of attention from mom and dad. Its so funny!

Well I have a doctors appointment next Tuesday and I will have a lot of blood testing to do so that will be fun. I'll write more next week about my appointment.
