14 Weeks!

Sorry this is a little late.  You know how I am about blogging, hehe.  Always behind or not at all.  Baby is doing wonderful, growing every day.  I'm pretty sure I woke up one morning with an even bigger belly than in this photo.  

My next appointment is Sept. 6th.  I will be 17 weeks then and really hope to find out what we are having!

 

Second Trimester

 Me at 12.5 weeks

Today I officially entered the second trimester of pregnancy...14 weeks!  I am very excited about what this trimester holds.  I look forward to being sick less, finally feeling Baby's movements (Baby has been kicking and moving around for a while, with tiny arms and legs too small for me to feel), and having a more pregnant belly versus a bulge. :D

My most asked question is:  Do you want to find out what you are having?  YES!  I want to be as prepared as possible for this first one.  Though I think being surprised at birth could be fun, but maybe down the road after we have had one of each and will be prepared for either.  

The next question is:  When will you find out what you are having?  My first appointment is the first part of September.  It is with a new doctor, so I'm not sure if he will try to determine the gender or not.  I sure hope so!

I have to say, entering this second trimester provides such a relief for me.  I have been anxious about the baby's health nearly the whole pregnancy.  I had a couple scares, but I am amazed at the mercy the Lord has shown us with the baby.  Please keep us in your prayers!  They are much appreciated.

A Happy New Year and Eleven Years with the Lord!

Yesterday made eleven years since the Lord saved me!  Every year that passes by, I am more and more in awe how great His presence is in my life.  Every day I want to grow to be more and more like Christ.  This year, I am committing myself to being in His Word everyday using my Masterlife Bible Study to help me start and memorizing 24 scriptures.  

If you would like to read my testimony, you can find it here.

Happy New Year! 

Cheetos Puffs: White Cheddar

While visiting my sister during Christmas, she had me try this white cheddar Cheetos puffs.  The bag says they contain "No preservatives, no artificial flavors, no artificial colors!"  Her family didn't care for them, but I LOVED them!  I was happy to take a full bag and a half off her hands!

I think they taste much like the original Cheetos, but better!  Try them and let me know what you think!
