I have a few pictures from the Young Life shower last Wednesday, but they are on my jump drive and I have to remember where I put that thing!

Here are some pictures of the red hall girls (K-2, special ed.) on our last day before the break and Lisa Stewart's last day before she has baby girl.

This picture is myself, Brandy (just finished first trimester), and Lisa who is 5 weeks ahead of me!

Here are the four of us who are pregnant in my hallway at school! Don't drink the water! hehe Lisa is due first- Thanksgiving day, than me- New Years' Day, than Brandy and Ashley are in May!

My Second Shower

My shower at Tricia's house was so fun! Thank you to Tricia, Carole, Elizabeth, and Emma! The food was so yummy, the decorations were so cute (precious dad actually), and the time spent with friends and a family was priceless. I got so many adorable outfits and loved the onesies people made for me. Especially the onesie that was made for Aunt Kim.

Yesterday was my 3 year anniversary with Brett and we got to hang out with our high school friends. I got the better end of the deal because of the shower the girls had for me. Brett got to watch a "manly" movie with the boys. Pictures of that shower will pop up as soon as someone tags me in a picture! You know I'm bad about taking pictures myself. Brett and I are going to dinner Friday night and I'm really looking forward to spending time with him and relaxing! Not one day passes that I don't thank God for giving me such a kind, sweet husband. (who's very tough though everyone) hehe

We also finished up our preparation for childbirth classes at the hospital so now we are ready- NOT! The more I find out, the more I want to read and research about. I have learned so much already about labor and delivery and I'm learning more about the first few weeks home with baby now. I know He is with us and never leaves us so most of my anxiety and fear is subdued.

Do not fear, for I am with you; do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

Counting down to the Thanksgiving Break!

Shower Time!

This past Saturday I had my first shower. The group of girls that threw me the shower were first "teacher friends", but have turned out to be life long friends. Even though some have moved and some have moved schools, we are able to still stay in touch, and every time we get together we have FUN FUN FUN! I am so blessed with their friendship and the friendship of the other teachers, family, and my community group of girls that came to the shower. Baby Pasionette Authority She-Nasty Sims (hehe) got so many gifts! Her dad was busy that afternoon putting it all together- more pics. of that to come. :)

Mom-to-be and Nana!

Thanks to everyone who came and sent well wishes! Sandie- we need to take a picture at the shower this Saturday so I can have both grandmothers on here!

October 29th,

I finally got the 3d picture scanned- thanks Liz! Here is a profile pic of her with her arm/hand by her head. That's how she has been every time we've seen her- one arm up!

We also have not just 3 names we like, but now 4 to choose from. There is one front runner and the other 3 we are toying with. We are at 30 weeks, almost 31 and things are starting to come together. We are going to Canton this weekend to look for a dresser and of course bows!
I can't help but think it and say it- God is good, He is always good. I mean look what we are creating right now! How is that even possible? It's amazing.

October 25

30 weeks and counting! We can't wait to meet baby... Brettsy as some of you call her. We have two possible names now and are working on a third to choose from at the birth. Everything is coming together nicely and soon we are painting the room and putting up bead board! I have a 3d sonogram of baby Sims and will put it on here shortly!

The first annual Sims' Halloween Party was fun and every one's costumes were great! From Michael Jackson to a whoopie cushion! We were having way to much fun to take pics, but here are some our friends took!

Bella from Twillight and a Tooth Fairy you probably had never imagined!

My teammates- a Publisher Clearinghouse Winner, a Flapper, and me- almost a vampire!

Halloween friends! Love the helmet Sarah!

We bought a crib!

Here is a store picture. We love the beadboard and soft white color. It was funny because I took my sister there to see it and we couldn't find it because it was on clearance towards the back. So I got a good crib at a good price!

Here is a store picture of the bedding we chose also. I couldn't get a close up of the quilt for ya, but it's cottage style with several different prints of flowers. :)

Tomorrow I will be 6 months and I'm so excited! We've ordered the bedding and can't wait for it to arrive. We have two names we like and are thinking of a third so we will have 3 to choose from when she comes. School is starting to settle in so I'm glad for that and my student teacher! I can't wait until she is teaching more and I'm sitting down more.
