Someone interpret please....

Okay, I wasn't going to post today b/c I've been going post happy, but my husband made it so I HAD to! So last night we were at a friends house playing Wii golf. This is the part I need you to interpret. While playing G makes the statement, "80% of this game is 1/2 luck." We laughed for a good while at that one. And I'm suppose to be the one with baby brain.

I just had to add some quick pictures to the blog. Last week G and I finally got done with all our trips for a while. I'll start with the most recent and work my way back. So this post will be about our trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains. Dad rented a cabin for the family to meet at and surprise my mom for her 60th birthday. We had a blast. It started with G and I driving to Dallas Friday night, getting in around 11:30pm, getting up at 5:45am to leave the house at 6am to catch our flight to GA at 7:40. All this was not so good for a girl in her first trimester, but God was good and got me through MUCH better than I had expected. I could have done without the many smells in the airport, but luckily I had a travel pillow to bury my face in. I got weird looks, but it was better than sticking my head in the trashcan and loosing what I had eaten that day. We got to the airport in plenty of time, but not in enough time for our luggage to get on the same flight we were on. You have to check your bags 40 min before your flight, not 37 min. So we landed at 10:45 and our luggage landed at 1:10. This actually ended up working out because my sister and her family were going to be on the road at like 7 that morning to drive from NC to pick us up. Well, they forgot to turn their alarm on so they slept in. Oops. So they got at the airport to pick us up around 2:00. Mom and dad were suppose to land at 2:10 so we had to get out of there so we could meet them at the cabin. So long story short (I know... too late for that) we got to the cabin minutes before mom and dad and surprised them when they walked it. It was great. I so love it when we can all get together. It's just harder to do with us all living in different places. It was such a special time. Anyway, enjoy the few pics. Ohh and just try to tell me I don't have the most handsome nephews and beautiful niece :o)








Pictures of my handsome nephews are coming soon. I have to figure out how to get them off another site.

Baby's first snuggy...

I got so excited this week when G came home with this sweet lamb from one of his co-workers. He works with the greatest people!! So this sweet lamb plays Jesus Loves Me! We were told that it's not just to set around, but to put on my belly and play for the baby. We want Jesus loves me to be the first song he/she learns. So the last few nights I have played it before going to bed. It's already such a sweet time. I guess b/c I can see it's sweet tune being a comfort to our baby when he/she gets here. I can also just imagine it being carried around the house someday. Oh my goodness. We're going to have a baby!! Nausea or not, I get so excited with each new passing day!! Mommy and Daddy love you so much baby!! (or pea-pod as Daddy calls you)

Why you should always have a camera ready...

Okay, so I was going through pictures of our trips these last four weeks and came across this. It's from our Christmas, but I think it's so funny and shows my youngest nephews ummmm... outgoing personality. He's a ham!!

Our Baby

So I have a few minutes before my evening nausea really hits so I thought I would share our pictures real quick. Some detail got lost in the scanning of the pics, but you can still see our beautiful baby. I'm so glad we got to get the early sonogram pictures. It helps to have them to look at on these days when I'm super nauseated. It makes it worth it. So on another note... Any predictions out there? I may need to start a poll.

Why My Husband is The Best!!

I just have to take a bit to brag on Gerald. He has been SO wonderful through this first trimester funk. Wonderful doesn't even begin to describe how loving he has been. I am so blessed to have such a supportive, understanding, loving, concerned, helpful, faithful husband!! He always tell me how proud he is of me. I tell I'm I have done NOTHING around the house for weeks. Our black entertainment center is grey with dust, you can't see the kitchen sink due to dishes, and laundry piles up like crazy. What does he say with a kiss? "You're growing our baby and that's the most important job you can be doing right now." Of course then I proceed to cry. I've been doing that a lot lately. And then of course he goes on to do everything in the house that I haven't done. We wouldn't have clothes to wear if it weren't for him keeping up the laundry. I don't know what I would do without him!! Hopefully in two more weeks the nausea will go away and I can get back up and going and give him a break from the housework. I love you so much GG!! You are such a blessing to me!!

We have joined the blogging world!!

So I know that we have been promising a lot of you that we would get our blog up and going, so here it is. Bare with us as I'm sure it will change as we have time to play around with it. We are new to this blogging thing, so we don't have all the gadgets figured out.
BABY NEWS!
So I figure most of you know by now we are expecting our first baby in Oct. If you hadn't heard yet (sorry) ummm ... SURPRISE!! We are so excited and can't wait to share our journey with you. So far Wendy is surviving the first trimester. Tired and nauseated, but all we have to do is look at that precious sonogram and it's all worth it!! Wendy will be 11 wks on Monday. The Lord has taught us so much in this time of waiting and we hope to share tid-bits of that as we go along. We first want to let everyone know that we serve an AMAZING and FAITHFUL God. The word tells us "Seek FIRST the Kingdom and THEN all these things shall be added unto you." The Lord wants us to seek HIM first and foremost. We had to learn to be in the room with the Creator and not be pregnant because it's not about what He can give us, it's just about HIM and a relationship with Him. He wanted us to seek Him, not his gifts. Now We're not saying that was always easy, but in seeking Him We found the strength to not only make it through, but to be joyful in the waiting. Now we could go on and on, but I'll save some for later.
We do have sonogram pictures, but they're not scanned into the computer yet, so they will be coming soon. We will do our best to keep the blog up to date. In the next few days I'll post about our many travels these last four weeks. It's been crazy. So with that said, We hope you enjoy reading and sharing our journey with us. Oh, and any advice on giving our blog a more appealing look, we are open to help and ideas.
