Blessed Beyond Measure

 
 
There has been many exciting things going on in my world.
First, I want to update you on my pregnancy.
I'm at the halfway point and feeling really good.
I have been getting detailed ultrasounds every 4 weeks from the beginning.
Shayne and the girls have been coming to each one and will continue throughout the pregnancy.
It's really cool to be able to see our little one every month.
Watching the growth and progression just makes me so happy!
This last ultrasound confirmed that we are having a boy. :)
You should've seen Shayne's face when they told us.
He was smiling from ear to ear...lol
I told the ultrasound tech that he had been moving a lot since 4am and she got to see him in action.
She was amazed at how much he was moving around.
I can't wait to see him face to face. 
 
His name is Giovanni Gabriel.
People aren't really feelin Giovanni, but I don't care.
I love to be different and  I LOVE the name! It's old school Italian.
 
On another note; the only thing I need is a stroller, plus a ton of diapers and wipes...lol
A customer at Shayne's job gave me a pack n play, swing, bouncer, and highchair free.
A neighbor down the street gave me some boy clothes and a car seat.
I found a really nice crib on craigslist for $20 and a changing table at Good Will for $20, as well as a complete bedding set at another consignment store.
I am sooooooooooo blessed!!
 
We will be moving, this Saturday, into a 3 bedroom apartment. (We are living in a 2 bedroom now).
I will be happy when this is over...I have a love/hate relationship with moving...lol
I love the change of scenery, but, I HATE the packing and moving thing.
This move is a necessary considering the family growth. :)
 
Another exciting thing, is that my son, Tyler, has moved here this weekend.
 He has been out of the house since he was 17 years old and in SC.
I am sooooooooooooooooo happy to have all my children with me again.
I'm looking forward to seeing what the Lord is going to do in our lives.
 
I'll continue to update you as things progress.
To all who are praying for me, thank you, and keep them coming;
I really need all that I can get. :)
 
Sorry this post has been so scattered...there's a lot more noise here than normal and I can't seem to get my thoughts straight....such is life.
