these days

These days Jeff and I are soaking up and enjoying having this little man around.

This kid has me smiling or laughing about 93% of our times together. I wanted to start a journal to write down all the little things he says and does that crack me up, but I CANNOT keep up with him! He is just too much and all over the place. We told him about baby, and he cannot wait just like the rest of us. As soon as he found out he asked our mommy if he could visit us for Christmas. :) He nicknamed baby “tum tum.” He says hi and tickles “tum tum” whenever he remembers too. And wants me to buy everything for baby. Sucha sweetie! I’m thinking about keeping him. ;) He, of course, wants baby to be a boy too. I'm thiiinking he may be getting what he wants… we will find out for sure in a monthish! I wouldn’t mind having a baby boy. Especially if he is as cute as daddy!

These days we got to see baby, and baby was more than just a speck on the screen! He or she had little eyes, a little nose, a little mouth (that we got to see open and close!) a little hand... basically a little everything. I loved it.

These days we are repacking our life and moving to NEW ORLEANS next week!! Yes, (close your eyes mom) the second most dangerous city in the U.S. for children. There is absolutely no doubt that this is where the Lord wants us for the next few years, so I am the least bit concerned. But I promise to be cautious, family and friends! And yippee for a blank canvas (home) to decorate! Hence, the second bedroom for a little visitor we'll be keeping forever. Yaaaayyy!

Sooo many new and exciting things in store!

Ways you can be praying, if you'd like :)

= For Jesus to protect baby so that life remains

=This mommy and daddy-to-be will be unemployed. Please pray for diligence/trust on our part as God provides jobs.

 = For Him to guide us to a church/ministries to get involved with.

He has made everything beautiful in its time.

Ecclesiastes 3:11
