oh man.


So I can't take the belly pictures by myself anymore. I have to have Bobbie help me. She says I barely fit in the screen. Oh great I'm going to have to start showing my face. So this is me at 27 weeks pregnant. Sheesh...look at that belly!

Well I am still working. I am really hoping that I can quit after we have Keija but we will see how things go. I know there are many people who have judged me over the years for working but I am doing what Michael and I feel is best for our family. We in all honesty do not have a choice at the moment. With how flexible my work schedule has been for me we have been sooooo grateful for the opportunity to have such a great job. Honestly when I think about it I have really enjoyed working the past year or two. Kailye is so busy with school and her friends and Grandma Leeana that I'm not so sure I would have changed her having all that time with her friends and family. She really loves being so involved and busy. I am so grateful to family members who were willing to help us out, regardless of how they felt of our decision. We would have been in a world of hurt with out you. I am especially grateful for those of you who are helping us out now. You all have no idea what a relief it is to not have to put my child in daycare...which is the alternative.

Michael and I have been so blessed these past few months for us both to be working. It has been such a huge relief to have Michael doing the majority of the supporting around our house. We would be in a world of hurt if he weren't working so hard to make as much as he can. Which has been the benefit of working on "commission". We will see how things pan out after the work at the apartments end. But it is such a great asset to his resume to have been there the entire remodel. He has also gotten so much business experience in management. We feel so blessed and scared to death at the same time about what the Lord has in store for us. We have always followed the promptings of the spirit and strive to continue to do so for our family as it expands.

WEll that got much more sappy than I had anticipated. Oh well...I'm just going to blame it on pregnancy hormones!

  1. well sweet thing, I do not judge you- I know it's mostly not a choice that you can make to work or not. We don't have a choice for me... I HAVE to work. especially since I bring in more than Ryan does. I just hope it's not forever and you ARE very blessed to not have to use a day care. I unfortunately will. It will be very hard. You're doing so great lady. Love ya

  2. You have such a cute belly, it was fun to see you and I have to say Michael is exceptional- I am biased though. I am glad he is such a good husband and dad.
