Oh BOY or

Yes I think it's appropriate now to announce that we're having our first baby!

I found out in mid January that I was preggo my body felt so weak and I always felt fatigue. I tried to think if there was something I had eaten that made me feel that way but nope... I asked my husband to take me to Wal-Mart to get a hpt and did it the following morning. Sure enough it came out positive. I waited to make an appointment and went in and their test came out positive as well. It's been an interesting ride from there! The symptoms of pregnancy have totally thrown me for a loop and the adjusting isn't as easy as I thought it would be.

Manu is ecstatic he's been wanting a baby since the sday we got married lol but honestly I like to plan things out so having a baby was not part of the plan at the very beginning. Certain things needed to be put into place and situations needed to be settled. I wanted to be ready and now I am :) soooo... Yesterday was my 20 wk appointment and it wasn't as informative as I was hoping it to be the Dr. just looked like he had a very long day. But we got pictures of our little sugar plum :) 


 Here's a side of view of the head facing upwards :) and the million dollar question... Dr. says do you want to know? We said yes and he said ok well than... I can't take it back once you know LoL I said just tell me... He said ok well it's going to be expensive... meaning a GIRL! :) 


 this a clear shot between her legs and the round white-ish part are her feet so no boy for me but girl for him :p but I say as long as baby is healthy it's all good! I promised the Lord I would try my best to raise this child knowing Him, His laws and His ways! The Bible says that:

"Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward." Psalms 127:3 
Thank you Jesus for finding me worthy!

"For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book  were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them." 
Psalms 139: 13-16

This is my promise....
"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it."
Proverbs 22:6

I say now... this child shall know His ways, His voice and that is my goal as a parent to not just to love, cherish and adore but to train her up in the ways of Jesus!

Love Love,
