Week 15

Today I am 15 weeks 4 days into what will hopefully be a 40 week journey. For those that want to know the number months.. I don't know. I guess 4 out of 10 months. Since I last posted these are some things that have happened:

- I finished my student teaching.
- I graduated with my masters. (A special thanks to all the family and friends who sent cards, gifts, and came in person to celebrate this milestone)
- I acted as a temporary babysitter for a friend who is a mother of a beautiful 5 month old girl. I did this for five days out of two weeks from 8-415. It was a kind of crash course in motherhood and it was great.

Recent questions from people:
What is your due date? November 12th. My doctor's office has said they will not induce until 2 weeks after the due date. So we expect (Lord willing) that we should have a baby sometime in November.

Have you felt the baby move? No, but I hope to soon!

When will you find out the gender? The appointment is not set, but we expect the end of June we will have the big ultrasound.

What plans do you have for after the baby is born?
At this point none except take care of the baby in some form. Please pray for us as we continue to seek God in regards to our future.

I haven't taken a recent belly picture. It is showing a little more each day, but its not always the most noticeable. I am still able to hide it easily if I want too. Maybe I will take another picture and post it here soon.

My next doctor's appointment is June 1st and then on June 3rd Steve and I will celebrate 5 years of marriage. We feel so blessed by our Lord within our marriage and our family. His grace is sufficient and we have seen that in many powerful ways in our marriage. We are thankful for eachother but we are most thankful for the sacrifice of Christ and the grace He offers which is the only reason our marriage has lasted and thrived.
