With God ALL Things are Possible

Well, I do not even know where to begin. It has been a long time since I have posted so I may not even have any blog followers anymore. That is okay. I originally started this blog to put my own thoughts down and it turned into a place where I got to catch up with people and meet new friends. For any of you who do not know, I have been married to my wonderful husband for almost 8 years and for nearly 5 of those, we have been trying to get pregnant. We have had ups and downs over these years but, we have been trusting in the Lord! DH has been way more faithful than me and he has never given up, I on the other hand have wavered in my faith more than once. Six months ago, we began using a fertility monitor which basically told us when the peak time for us to try would be. Well, as the Lord would have it, we are finally pregnant!!! Yes, it is a very big shock and a pleasant pleasant surprise!!! I am now 7 weeks and we have had an ultra sound and heard the heart beat! What a joy!! We have been in a daze!!! WE have been rejoicing and are so full of praise to the Lord for what He has done for us. Now, I would appreciate your prayers and look forward to sharing with you all that this new journey will involve. Praise be to God

As soon as you pick colors, theme,whatever for the nursery,let me know.I love an excuse to go look at fabric! Tell Kevin hello and that he cannot name this child after someone from the Food Network~ Vic

OH. MY!!! I am so thrilled and I know how thrilled and shocked you are. Oh. Oh. OH!!!! Summer!!!!! YAY!!!! OH YAY! Hmmm, 7 weeks - April baby? I can't wait to read all about your pregnancy (use your blog as your pregnancy journal so I can read all about it). I'm praying now for a happy, healthy, full-term pregnancy for you. Psalm 113:9 - praise the Lord!!!

My friend, so glad you made this public!  I love you sooo much!  I can't believe that I stopped believing!  God is so good and so faithful even when I am unfaithful.  I can't wait to walk through this together and Gina has a great idea.  Share it with the world, girlfriend!  We have all been praying for you.  This is going to be so fun!  And, by the way, I am ready for another shopping trip for baby!  :)  I miss you this week!
