Baby Bump Joy

They say that when you have your second child that you tend to show earlier

Whoever they are...

They weren't kidding...my clothing is tight and uncomfortable

so I figured that I might want to start documenting our kiddo #3's journey.

So I took my first photo marking 6 weeks.

{Hello Little One!!!}

I officially finished my first jar of Claussen Deli Style Spears-and it was good!!

Between garlic deli pickles and anything lemon we are doing well.

I keep having a craving for a

stuffed crust pizza with mushrooms, green peppers,

chicken, pineapple.

At lest every time I crave it

it is too late and they are closed...hahaha

I am glad for this!

My goal is to only gain what is needed-not the extra of going crazy

because " I am eating for two"...

I want the baby to be healthy and for me to be healthy.

******

Lately I am battling the Morning Sickness sometimes all day long.

It also kinda limits what I can eat to keep my stomach calm.

I am glad to have broth and to have some rice...

maybe Oodles of Noodles-it just kind of depends on the day

I have to admit though that I am kinda happy that I don't have a craving

for chocolate anymore-it is kinda nice!!

******

I have recently purchased a treadmill!

It was a $304  treadmill for $50!!!

The lady was looking to move and needed to sell the treadmill.

It was such a blessing and the Lord timed it out just right!!!

She had only used it 3-4 times and joked about her cat not using it.

She had a good humor-I hope and pray that all goes well with her move.

I am grateful to her for her treadmill!

*******

I am going to keep "moving"

so that my delivery goes smoother and easier in February.

As long as I have my doctors okay

{So don't worry about me Mom- I'll get permission-hahah}

*******

Well, I think that catches you up to date with

what has been going on in our little world.

****

How about a little "A Day in the Mouth of Boy Wonder"?

{to those on facebook-I apologize-you've probably already read these-ha}

***

BW: "Mommy, is this the stomach milk?"

Me: "What do you mean?"

BW: "You know, the milk with the fat in it?"

***

BW: "Daddy! Listen to Mommy's tummy-I think she has a baby elephant in there!!"

***

BW: {Singing this upstairs} " I did a bad thing....I did a bad thing...."

{I have no clue what he was talking about-hahah}

***

I think that is all that I can remember at this time.

I am sorry but I seem to be living my "everyday adventures" on facebook lately.

I will try to correct this-I am sorry about that.

Things are a catch of a moment here and there....

I have been working hard when I get a second wind

...and the other times I am napping-haha.

********

Thank you for being so loyal as my readers!!

 I appreciate it!!

You give me a reason to write.

Have a Wonderful Happily Filled Night!!!

Scarlet Fever and Step Throat? How about that?!

Well, Boy Wonder is sick with a captiol S-and a I- and a C- and  a K!  He has Strep throat and Scarlet fever.  The meds his doctor gave him seem to have an adverse reaction to him as well-his ears and face are swelling somewhat-I would rather not disclose too much info-but we know what signs to look for if the reaction gets severe.  He had a terrible episode about a year ago-poor thing-he swelled up-got splotches all over-fever-and he cried if you touched him he hurt that bad.  He just sat there and didn't move-we had to carry him everywhere.  It was enough to break my poor heart.  So now we hopefully wont have to deal with that again-I enjoy the extra snuggling I get but hate to see him in pain and not feel well. 

I also pray that Hubby don't get it as well-he is preaching on Sunday.  I am suppose to be singing on Sunday as well.  Not sure how that is gonna work since I still have my bass voice right now.  Oh, well-it will be what it will be-worse case senerio I will do a piano special....  I hope everyone has a wonderful day today-enjoy your day!  It may be the last one you will have...we never know when the Lord will call us home.  Cherish the Moment.

Suit of Armor and a Pillowcase

My Mother sent this set of armor for our little man

It is the Armor Of God-it even has the Belt of Truth!

He liked it so much he wanted to take it to the store with us on Friday

Now that I am looking at the picture-I think the sword is a little on the bent side..unless it is

a trick with the camera hmmm...

anyways-This gift is so super-he Loves it!

******

I said the other day that I was gonna share what I got at IKEA

 this beautiful pillowcase for .49 cents!!

It has 4 buttons too

Greg asked why I wanted it

I thought that it might make a really cute skirt and his reply?

"My wife is wearing a pillowcase....."

I laughed so hard-he is so funny-I told him that it wouldn't look homely!

That's a guy for you-they need visual-he will like it once he sees it:)

ONLY ONE WEEK LEFT

♪♫I got a sale♫♪.........

♪♫I got a sale.......yes I did.......♫♪

But I am so tired that you will have to wait til tomorrow to see what it is : ) 

I know I am so ornery aren't I?!

But we really did a lot today!!

I had two Music Classes to teach, and we had Assembly too

then went shopping with a very energetic five year old; enough said I know but he

 literally and really drove me crazy :)

(or course we used the stores car shopping cart;

 you know the one's that you should have to pass a driving test in order to use it. 

I even saw a lady driving it an almost knocked down stand alone shelf)

Don't get my wrong-I love Boy Wonder, but sometimes...

it is no "wonder" I am losing my hair :)

We are doing a lot of redecorating/rearranging of the house. 

I can't wait to share the results-if all turns out well:)

I have my own "studio" room-it is a disaster, but a work in progress.

So as you can see....busy, busy, busy ; )!

Well, I am off to bed 6a.m. does come early:)

Have a wonderful nights rest!

I know I will-because I accomplished a lot for my day :)

Caleb Birthday Gift Video's

Don't forget to mute the sound player at the bottom of my blog:)

His thank you:)

I hope everyone had a great Sunday in the House of God:)

Our Patient Is Home&Made By Me Thursday&Other Things

Today I worked on the Bulletin Board for our classroom at church

The Before

The After

Our little furry patient is home-she is a little sore-but she is home

This was the beautiful sky tonight..it was amazing

the Lord allowed it to happen at just the right time!!

As soon as I put my camera in the car and turned around

It was gone

I gave a whirl at auto adjusting it  just to see what it looked like

I have to say I like both of them:)

The Lord is so good to us-everything went well today.  I got my schedule for my classes that I am teaching today at the teacher's meeting. Looking forward to a good year:)  We went to Cici's pizza for lunch-so yummy!!  I think that this is it:)

I hope everyone else had a wonderful day just like I did:) 

A Stippling Foot& A Few Other Odds and Ends:)

Hubby bought me a Stippling Foot for my sewing machine!!!!I am so excited!!! I can't wait to use it-well,after things start settling down-I can't wait.....eeeee!

OOOO-I also found a dilly of a deal at Joann's-instead of doing ruffles by hand..they have the proper sewing foot for my machine and it will do the ruffles for me:)  BIG BIG BIG GRIN-can't wait to pick up the Ruffler Foot!!!I am gonna try to get it Labor Day weekend when they have 40%off and 10% off:)  it is only $14.99-not to bad a price!!!!  If I can talk hubby into stopping by Joanns:)

Tomorrow we are going to Longwood Gardens for a family outing-can't wait to take some pictures:)  It will be nice.

Still two more projects for the competition-I am gonna try to finish my one for this week today or Saturday.  Then one more week-and then break!!!  My dear friends and family are doing so well at voting!!! I didn't exactly expect such a turn out of votes-just goes to show how many friend you have:) 

Oh- I got the job as Music Teacher at Woodlyn Christian School.  So I am in charge of the Elem. grades and I will be helping with the Middle and High School classes.  I am humbled-because I am nervous-but God wouldn't lead me where His grace can't keep me.  I also will be the pianist for the opening chapel on Mondays-and might be doing flute lessons!!!  Busy busy busy-add all that to being a full time wife(going on 7 years), mom( 5 years), Assistant Pastor's Wife(going on 7 years), Church Pianist( going on 2 years), Seamstress(?years), Flautist(for 19 years!!) etc.....the list goes on and on.

I am really amazed at the opportunities that the Lord has given to me in the past few months-it almost makes me feel like I have grown so much Spiritually.  I have had so many folks older than me to ask my counsel and guidance-as well as a few that are younger.  I give counsel bathed in prayer for sure-I want the wisdom to be God's wisdom given in due season.

All in all the Lord is just so good to us!!!  No matter how many things we don't have-he has given us more than what we deserve let alone need.  I love the Lord with all of my heart-he is a true Best Friend to me!! 

Just remember even if your prayers are not what you are asking for-God still answers every single one of them whether it be yes or no or wait.

Until then In His Service,

This and That and Sometimes the Other

I know I know; "where is the project you just did last week"?!  Things have been just crazy around here!!!  But be sure to stay tuned cuz I do have some more things to post-for right now though-my house needs a little TLC as well as my wonderful family:)  Voting goes up tommorrow 8-23-2010 around 8:00a.m. Don't forget to get your vote in:) Remember: EVERY SINGLE VOTE DOES COUNT!!!!:)

Have a Wonderful Day!!!

Deleting Photos....

Just in case you go through my blog and you come to a description of something and a picture is not there and it seems that it should be-it is because I went through and deleted some of my photos on Picasa-because I wanted to be sure that I had enough storage space for my photos. Thank you for your understanding and barring with me.

More Pictures Again-Enjoy:)

Thursday Again, But Lots Of Fun!

*****This is the Most recent Fabric Flower That I've Made-Love the Design of the Fabric on It-Favorite Design so Far******

******Here is the book I found for Caleb for 50 cents!!! Wonderful price and a Really Great Book!!!*****

****Here is His Village-He Puts These Up By Himself Of Course:Notice The Power lines.....These are Bungee Straps:)He Is Very Creative!!!****

*******After the Park and Feeding the Squirrels We Went and Found Us Some Train Tracks To Take Some Pictures. Our Super Energetic One Couldn't Stand Still But They Are Cute Pictures Anyways:)******

*******A Train Was Down the Way From Us So He Kept Watching It. They Were Unloading It At the Refinery*****

***We Had Fun Shopping and Reading Books, Feeding Squireels, Seeing Trains,Playing, Talking and All That Great Stuff-Praising the Lord for His Gift!!!!***

Sunday went well. I played the piano again for a friend that was singing a solo at church. This Sunday I will be playing again-piano solo. I am so amazed on how I have been picking up on playing the piano. The Lord has "taught" me everything that I know. Of course, I have my own style of playing so I am not yet playing during church. I am hoping to get piano lessons in the near future. You can only teach yourself so much...

Today was a good day-Gregs folks are with us this week. Caleb has been having more "sad" issues since they are working at the church most of the time-usually dad is working on something here at the house and he can see him everytime he would like. But, now things are different-it eill be okay though because today dad will be finished so it will be play time for them today and tommorrow:)

Mimi was having problems the other day with not feeling well- for those that did not know she had carpal tunnel surgery-I think a week or two ago. Her "syptoms" seemed a lot like an oncoming heart attack but nothing happend( Praise the Lord). She had said that she was feeling better. Hopefully everything will be okay-have not heard otherwise.

Jess is surviving the Gallbladder issue-it is not fun I am sure. Baby is doing well-Jacob is adjusting, and Stephen still has been going to work everyday!!!I am so proud of him!!!

My parents had a scare the other day-they had 4 inches of ice the other day and while on his way to work a tree limb fell on my dads car and crushed it. But the Lord was watching out for my dad-he was fine. So sadly though all the cars within my parents driveway has issues. Smooshed roof-dropped line(I am not sure exactly-hey I am just a girl-ask me about shopping and I can tell you just about anything-LOL) and a whole bunch of other things wrong with the other cars. Five cars and not a one that is in great working.

Well, this seems like a good bit of catch up any other questions jsut comment me.

Love to all
