So much for creativity. . .

Well, here I am, extremely behind on blogging, and not quite sure if I will continue to post old pictures or if I should just give up and start over with this month. I'm not even sure who even still looks at this thing, but oh well! We started this blog because all of our family are out of state, so at least they could keep up on the changes in our lives and the lives of our kiddos. I must say, another late post is to be expected, but this time I have big news! I tried racking my brain for some unique and creative way to make this announcement, but alas, I have succumb to a journaling post, because I realize I am seriously lacking in creativity and if I wait any longer I will never get to share our news via the blogging world. So, here it is plain and simple. Matt and I are expecting baby #3 in April! I have been anxiously awaiting the 12 week mark, and the doctor's appointment that would allow us to hear the heartbeat so that I could share this news with the world(well, the world that I know). I am 13 weeks pregnant and feeling SO much better. We are praising God for this very specific answer to prayer as we were waiting on HIS timing and praying for faith to trust Him in whatever the outcome. With Matt just beginning seminary, there is a lot of change happening in our lives right now and we are praying that God will give us strength to take things one day at a time, and to rest in His promise that "our times are in HIS hands".

Congratulations! That's so exciting. I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better. By the way, I'm always checking in on you guys, but am usually terrible about leaving comments. Not too creative myself! =)

Hey! I just wanted to say that you *should* post all those back-pictures!! True confessions: I do it all the time. It's actually helpful to have a store of pics for the times of draught!! You don't always have to tell people when they're from (of course, it's nice to have a kind of archive for yourself via blog, but knowing you, you've journaled it somewhere else!!!). So I vote POST!

Adrianna said...
