A lot has happened since the last blog I posted. God has blessed our growing family in so many ways over the years, but HE has just amazed me in the last two months. Not only were our prayers heard for a new vehicle and home, but Jesse finally got a new job and is working day shift. GOD has been so good to us and we're all VERY thankful!!!
On to the baby news....
The baby is in good health. All lab tests have been negative and he is quite the little gymnist. Our lil man finally has a name and we are still waiting until the shower to share it with everyone. After months of not being able to decide, we chose two names that meant something special to us. His first name means the same as Jesse's and his middle name is a family name after one of my great grandfathers. Although his first name means a lot to us, his middle name does and always will mean more to me. He will be named after the father of one of the greatest men I have ever known, love and miss very much!! (My grandfather) I never got the chance to meet my great grandpa, but I have a feeling he would be honored to have a great great grandson named after him.
And if you're wondering how Mom-to-be is, all seems to be going well. I've been experiencing lots of pelvic pressure and numb/stabbing back pain lately and a few mild contractions here and there. I'm really in the nesting mode since we moved into the new house, we're currently trying to unpack the last few boxes and get everything organized. I packed our hospital bag tonight because I have a fear of waiting until the last minute and being without it. lol
We're all so anxious and excited for the day that he decides to make his appearance. Only 9 weeks to go.
I'm so happy for you guys! Good idea to have your bag packed. I did wait till last minute because I thought I was going to be induced, but my prayers were answered and she decided to come out on her own 2 days before my induction...while I labored my mom had to run around like a mad woman to get a bag packed.
