We are going to Springfield this weekend for our baby shower!!! We are so excited. I will let ya'll know about it when I get back!
WoW... sorry that it has been so long. I have just been so busy I have neglected my blog.
The house is going great!!! We just have to finish painting the ceilings and we can start putting stuff in there. We are so excietd. Andrew has does a GREAT job of working on everything. It's so exciting to learn how to do some of this stuff and then we will be able to say we did it ourselves.
Eli is getting BIG!!! He gets the hickups on a regular basis. It is very amusing. He twirls around in my belly all the time. The girl that sits behind me at work just knows that he is working up his escape route and that he is about to head out. :) The docotor said everything is looking good. Our friend is going to take mine and Andy's pictures on Sunday so that we have some pics of the family. Also we are having our baby shower on Sunday!!!! I am so excited!!! My sister-in-law and cousin have worked very hard on it and I'm just sure that it will be WONDERFUL!!!! I'm so excited.
Work has been okay. Today has been a really rough day. The wonderful thing is tomorrow is a new day. I am really struggling with the thought of coming back to work after I have the baby. We are blessed that Andy gets to stay home for eight weeks with Eli and I when he comes. But I really want to be able to stay home after that. Right now it is just not possible. I am really glad God is bigger than our check book though. If any wants to pray for us. It would be great if God would provide a way for me to be able to stay home or atleast work part time. It would also be great if my job would just let me work at home.
Hopefully I will have pictures of the house soon!! And pray that the baby stays in there about 5 more weeks atleast so that we can have a plump (hopefully not to plump)and healthy little boy!
This is a very exciting time for us as we take the giant leap into home ownership. I think I am looking to most forward to the backyard (as small as it may be) and the ability to LET (opposed to take) the dog out! Casa Del Ward is a 95 year old beauty that sits only three blocks south of Kansas City's Country Club Plaza. We have an extra bedroom so guests are encouraged. We will also be having a painting party the first weeks that we own it and all are welcome...Bring Your Own Brush.
Andrew and I decided a long time ago that we wanted to move to Kansas City when we got done with college. Well our dream is finally coming true. We will be embarking on a new journey soon. We will have real jobs and a family and hopefully a house.
It is extremely difficult to leave everything that is so familiar, but I do look forward to it. Andy and I have the challenge of finding a new church, saving up money for our house, and finding child care for our baby. So if anyone would like to pray for us about those things that would be amazing...
However we have been blessed with amazing jobs. I have been worried for quite some time that we might be moving without jobs, but God is always providing. Just when I thought we both were going to be without jobs we both got jobs. God is so good. I always seem to forget that He does things in His time and not my own.
Well next weekend I will be back living at home with my parents and getting ready to start a new phase of life. May God always come first in our family.
Graduating from anywhere is always an amazing time!!!! For graduation Andrew and I got a Wii from his parents. It is such a fun gift. We spend hours entertaining ourselves with it.
Yesterday we were at Andy's parents house. Andrew and Erin where playing boxing on the Wii. It was very funny. Erin was so amused with herself I'm not sure how she stood up straight.
So if anyone wants to play we would love to have ya!!!!
