Baby Week

Its officially baby week...yay! So many emotions, thoughts, etc etc. Trying not to let anxiety or any fears come into play the next 24-48 hours. And Im going to update this today just in case I don't for the next few weeks. I've been trying to think about how to describe expecting a baby. You pretty much have NO idea what to expect. You don't know what the darling thing even looks like, yet it will take up a little tiny yet huge part of your home. You have NO idea what to expect during labor. Don't know what the pain will feel like, hard core contractions etc. So while I am home today getting ready, contemplating, going grocery shopping one last time, getting things finalized and packed, paying last minute bills, I am also going to be praying and staying positive. I am SO grateful to be able to be pregnant and be able to give birth. I am SO excited to experience the unknown so that I can be able to share it with others and be able to have it all to myself. Sighhh. Please pray for US! Oh please. :) On another note...




Congrats to my husband!

 Joshua just finished 4 years of electrical school through the community college. Whoo for finishing school! Such a task. I remember when he first started when we first were dating. He's done so much growing and has learned so much about his line of work. He has a lot of experience and now the only thing left is for him to take is his big Journeyman electrical exam this Summer to get officially licensed. We celebrated Friday night by throwing an impromptu surprise party that his awesome family helped me with! Our brother in law BBQ-ed, we had 7 layer dip, yummy potatoes, and awesome company. Its so much fun celebrating and I've been taught in my life that large AND small accomplishments SHOULD be celebrated! I got a cake which I totally spaced taking a picture of, as well as these yummy cookies from Cookies by Design!


I personalized this cookie myself... I also got graduation cap cookies that were adorable but forgot to take a pic of those too...Congrats Babe!

Last but not least...My last pic of being prego. I will actually miss it, but I will be okay without it I think. 


Here's to having a week full of tiny hands and toes, precious kisses, smooth birth and labor, and extreme happiness! I truly can't wait to hold my baby.

Husband has been having extreme back pain that he will probably be getting a minor surgery for. Poor guy. He's had blessings and we are praying hard for him to be out of pain this week while we have so many other things going. If you will please pray for us that everything goes smoothly I would appreciate with ALL my heart! Thanks so much!!! Love ya'll.
