Spring Blessings

Well, I can not believe I skipped over March and never posted anything. I had intended to but time seemed to get away from me. My what a month we have had!

On the 17th we went in for our ultrasound. We prayed HARD that God would let us find out the sex of the baby and BOOM there she was... perfectly positioned and not shy about showing us that she was a girl! :) We are so excited to have another little angel coming! :) It took us a few excited nervous weeks to chose a name but we have one..... Summer Rose! We are so happy to have a name to call our baby! I am so excited for this time in our lives! Bj is so happy! He talks to the baby all the time and tells me how happy he is. I am so glad that God has made us fall in love with little Summer even before she is born!



Bj and I celebrated our birthdays this past week. He turned 33 on the 25th of March and I turned 26 April 1st. Where does the time go? I am so happy to say that I have spent 6 birthdays with the love of my life. :) We had a great birthday weekend. It is amazing how God grows us in Him and through that binds us together with our spouses. Bj is definantly my better half and I can not wait for many more happy birthdays with him!


Well to change the subject to the other tiny angle in my life.. Lillie turned three this past saturday! :) I can not believe she is already three years old. She has became such a little doll and I love her so much! We have settled into a good night time routine with her where she picks the book and either Bj or I read them to her by her bed. This is AFTER her daddy lillie ONLY dance time that she INSISTS he have with her every night when he gets home! She is such a breath of life to us! Her party went well.. despite my nervousness! She had a really good time! Thank you so much to all of you who came! I know I am bias but she is definantly worth celebrating! I thank God for these past 3 years with her!


Well.. yesterday was Easter Sunday! I LOVE EASTER! We had an amazing church service! The play was SO good.. I cried watching it! I love how God can show us knew things in stories we have heard so many times we can tell them ourselves. He is constantly revealing His love for us, and man do I need that love! After church Bj and I took Lillie back to the lake and barbqued. It was nice and relaxing. Then my parents came out for a bit and took Lillie home with them so we could clean up. After everyone left we threw on our swim suits and swam in the lake like we were kids. I love Bj so much. He is so loving and spontanious. I really could not picture my life without him. :) Well after that we picked up Lillie and came home in time to watch my FAVORITE sunday show... Extreme Home Makeover which was AWESOME this week! It showed people the heart behind Adoption. I pray that God opens doors for adoption in our future. I know that Bj and I both have that desire. We also know that the timing is not right at this moment, but when it is I pray that God shows us and that we have the courage to walk the path he has for us!


This year has been filled with so many blessings. We heard a message a couple weeks ago that said, 'the winter is OVER!' And I think it truly is... God has put Spring in my life and I thank Him for all these new beginings!
