correction & reflection

well... the tears came.

as they should have.

and they continue to come.

specifically when i experience pregnancy symptoms.

it's just a sad reminder that i am not.

trying to hold on to Christ and His promises!

on a lighter note,

i wanted to share some fun//funny stories during the days

we might have had a living baby inside of me.

1. this handsome man.

 my husband (of SEVEN months-today! yay!) and i went to wal-mart

to get the pregnancy test.

i don't know why... but it was extremely A-W-K-W-A-R-D!

while we were waiting in line jeff tried to cover the box up with another item.

fail.

it just kept on falling off. 

revealing the... dun dun dun... pregnancy tests! eek!

over and over and over again.

haha.

2. first of all, i blame the hormones.

okay. i came home one night with a bunch of free baby stuff, 

and i wanted us to look through the goodie bag together.

he wanted to wait til the morning.

(uh-oh. bad decision. ha!)

this sent me into a night of crying. without cease.

 then i cried some more because i was upset with myself for crying...?

ugh.

some where in between all of these tears...

i sincerely told jeffrey

"sometimes... you just have to do what i want."

my poor husband! i know.

3. the morning after the sleepless night of our positive pregnancy test,

one of the first things jeff said to me was

"i still have zits...... i can't be a father!" 

haha!

(i hope these are just as funny to you as they are to me.)

4. my beautiful, young mommy could only manage to get one

word out of her mouth when we told her the news over skype.

"wow. wooooow. wOooOoooOw. wow. wow."

while this cutie was jumping up and down

yelling

"i'm gonna be an uncle!

i'm gonna be an uncle!

i'm gonna be an uncle!

i'm gonna be an uncle!"

 it was pretty hilarious.

5. jeffrey and i have been working on the names of our babies diligently

since day one of our marriage. haha! not really but kinda.

(although, i've been working on these since 5th grade... at least!)

the name would have been...

Ella Grace

or

Joshua Nolan

i still love these names.

so don't steal 'em! :)

6. my father-in-law said if it was a girl and she had a dirty diaper,

he was going to say 

"i smella ella..."

he's got good jokes. every once in a while... ;)

(i only say this because it'll make him smile)

we'll be heading out to good ole' brownwood, texas

tomorrow for thanksgiving with the in-laws!

but i'll be missing my family back home!! for sure.

Happy Thanksgiving!
