3rd trimester "stuff"

Little Matthew is starting move around a lot. I love it!! :) He worries me on days he's not as active. When that happens I call Greg over to talk to him. He almost always responds to his Daddy's voice and will give a kick or two. Listening to Greg talk to Matthew is the highlight of my life right now. It's really cute.

I have been put on two shots a day now.

But lets move on to more positive things shall we?

I am very happy that I finally found bedding for Matthews room that I LOVE!! Greg will be painting this week since his new job engineering doesn't start until October. I love having him home to take care of things right now. The picture below is the bedding, but not his actual room. I will post pictures of that when it all comes together.

Blessed to be a blessing

I am 24 weeks and 4 days pregnant. Wow! 24 weeks! What a blessing. In my past three pregnancies I never made it past 6 weeks. Everyday is a gift! I am thankful everyday for this life growing inside of me. I have a new level of faith that I would not have had without the trails I went through. God knows what he is doing. I hated it at the time, and didn't understand it, but I know His purpose supersedes my desires .

My focus is on my son now. But that is not my only focus. I can't help but want to help others who are going through what I went through. I have a friend who I pray for daily. I told her I often smile before, during, or after my prayers because my faith in God and in her situation is so strong. I know she will one day feel what I currently feel being pregnant. Her and her husband are so deserving of a child. I pray for their children by name (the names they have chosen) and can't wait until they are here with us.

Maybe I went though all that I went through, not only for myself, but to help others.

Blessed to be a blessing.
