My Love

Welcome to the world my little sweet heart! Born September 28, 2011 7:40 PM 7 LBS 21 1/4 inches long! Ryan and i love him so much our hearts swell with all the blessings God has given us! We are moving into our home next week and we can't wait for what the future holds for our new family (hopefully he doesn't grow too fast!)

For the first time in my life I am not ready for what's next I am content and so peaceful with my life and what has become of Ryan & I and our relationship! Words cannot describe how having a baby changes you inside and out! I love you sweet Caleb!

Big Day!

So today is a big day for our family! I have been scheduled to be induced at 9 PM tonight! I am praying for a healthy baby boy, a smooth delivery, and a quick delivery! Before we head over to Midland we will be having a quick baby shower from some very sweet ladies here in Seminole! Ryan and I are so very blessed to be surrounded by people who love us and love Caleb already!

On top of all this that is spinning around in my head we put an offer in on a house and got back a counter offer. We still aren't satisfied with their counter so we are searching to find what we should do next...You might say it's going to be a bit of a stressful day! I keep trying to set my eyes on the end prize which is holding Caleb and finally getting to kiss his little nose!

I know that God has a perfect house for us I am just praying that we can clear our minds and hearts and really listen to what He is telling us! I can't wait to start our life with Caleb and our new home!

Here goes nothing!

Tomorrow is the big move! I can't believe we are moving with me being 35 weeks pregnant! We will drive half way to Dallas tomorrow afternoon ( that's about 5 hours away from here), and then the additional 5 hours to Seminole on Saturday! I hope we can find a home and sell our home here before baby Caleb comes, but things don't always work out the way we hope! All I know is that I am going to have a beautiful baby boy this fall and that makes everything else just seem menial! Ryan starts his new job on Tuesday, I really hope he's happy and enjoys his new working environment! I can't wait to start our new chapter together, he's going to be such a great daddy! I am going to post a few of our maternity pictures that we took. The amazing Mandy Bonds is to thank for these wonderful pics!

Why I made it in the first place!

Frames and Windows

I have been looking all over for a great cheap frame to make a message board out of. Today I ran into Beaumont to a store I hadn't been to yet called "Tattered Suitcase". I found a couple of amazing treasures. One I have completed and the other one is still a work in progress, I will post pictures as soon as I finish!

Happy 4th of July

Well it's rounding out 6 1/2 months with my first pregnancy with our precious Caleb. It is officially July in Southeast TX which means, hot, humid, nasty days! This in turn means this momma whale is staying indoors for most of the day! I am getting more and more antsy staying at home as the days go on, but I have decided to start doing some little onsies with my cricut, pictures will come soon! So far I have made a couple of birthday cards for my nephews and done a little bit of scrap booking. Also our lives could be in for a few changes if it's in God's plan. More information about that will come!  Here are the most recent cards and an updated picture of the pregnancy!
