15 week OB appointment

Time is going by. I could honestly say I feel like I felt some flutters this past weekend. I also experienced some lower left abdominal pain. The doctor said it could be a combination of round ligament pain and also scar tissue and adhesions from past surgeries.

We had an ultrasound and wow how the baby has grown you could really see his spinal cord and his little feet kicking. He wasn't as active today kinda resting. We still weren't able to confirm his sex. But everything in me yells BOY BOY!!

I've been complimented on my pregnancy glow and how I radiate and I know this little one has given me so much joy already!! He makes me happy!! I love love being pregnant so glad god gave me an opportunity to carry life!!! It's Amazing!!!

On our way to grandma house

Today I'm going to Harrisburg to see my mom and family. They haven't seen me since I've been pregnant so I'm pretty excited. I'm also very cautious because my family has so much love for each other they constantly bicker. They make up drama just to keep it going but that's how we love at the end of the day it's just us. Love seeing my great nieces and nephews for they have been my babies for so long loving on me just when I needed it the most. Hubby is working his long weekend shifts so this will be my first trip to the burg without him in a long time. I'm ready for the ride. The baby and I will be rocking out In my cool comfy tank and maxi skirt from old navy!! My first maternity tank!! Love it. Ooh and the jean jacket is maternity too but sure ill get wear out of it after maternity as well!

Big Sister Approved

Today we told my Bonus Daughter (Jason's Daughter) the news. I was very nervous and hesitant with telling her sooner than now. Last year after my ectopic rupture and surgery it was spring break and Lexi was here with us and she took such good care of me! I was so thankful because I she wasn't with me I probable would have went into a deep depression. She helped me get out of bed daily watched Criminal Minds and ate pizza all day!

So we purchased T-shirt to tell her the news and give to her this spring break but due to last minute changes she was unable to come so we had to Skype her!! Since I was in the second trimester I was more confident with telling her. She appeared excited about the news. My prayer is she always knows we love her and her place in her daddy's heart is irreplaceable!! Blended families are very unique and tied together by a lot of love and prayer!

Change is good.. Mommy time

I spent the day shopping and love this color think it will be my inspirational color for the spring!!

Saturday Morning Errands with my baby bump

God is good! I'm up and at em early!! I woke up early (3:30am) and couldn't go back to sleep ! Spent some time studying the word and looking online for cool baby stuff!! Now I'm up and ready to take care and pamper me so retail therapy and mani/pedi!!!! Great to have my energy back!!

Onsies of my Faith

My husband came home yesterday with a pack of onsies and he reminded of how he has always bought our baby gifts for the last four years to keep building my faith. I must say he was stronger in this area as I wavered constantly because it was easier just to live in the reality and not think of possibility because it would sit me up to be disappointed. It's sometimes unreal when I look at my growing belly and see the sonograms that I have life inside of me!! I'm so overwhelmed with Gods grace and his unfailing love for me. I'm so blessed and glad my time has come!!

On another note I'm taking a cherry blossom cruise with my hubby today! More pics to follow!!

12 week OBGYN appt

It's crazy how time is flying as we start our second trimester next week!! Our appt today was short and sweet we say our precious miracle and he (claiming a boy) was jumping with his hands raised up ! I said he looks like mommy praising our father!! The first picture is a frontal picture and the second is a side profile of him with his hand to his face.


For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;" Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, (Psalm 139:13-14)
