Miracle of Life

I love being pregnant, to feel this little one inside growing, kicking, flipping, and even hiccuping is a miracle!! The past two years of struggling with infertility were difficult. I didn't feel like a woman. I was unable to do what so many can do with ease, become pregnant. I had many emotions during that time, anger, saddness, frustration, hopelessness, and finally being content...but only after much prayer. Pregnancy is a miracle!! I thank the Lord for opening my womb and for teaching me about patience, and being content in whatever situation.

I just recently had yet another ultrasound, the last one the could see all the valves in the heart. Yeah, Daisy's heart looks good! She is a little bit though. She is smaller than what she should be, however for me that seems to be normal. Lily was only 5lb8oz when she was born. Right now baby is only 13 oz and baby should be 16 oz at 22nd week of pregnancy. Looks like more premie clothes...

Being disiplined in all areas in my life

Right now we are trying our best to be disiplined, man it is hard!! We are trying our best to be debt free by dec 15 the baby's due date (other than our home loan). We never took out student loans for Codey's school but we took out a few small credit card to assist with school. Does anyone have any ideas on getting them paid off?? To make matters worse my sister just called and asked if I would come with her to our local outlet mall... I think it will be a good time to visit with my Mom and sister but it might be too much of a temptation to spend money. I have been working three night shifts a week and it is starting to get hard to do. I am job hunting this week in hopes to find a job that might pay better that my current job. Codey is doing exceedingly well at his job and we should be able to soley live on his income. But we have this ugly debt looming over our head uggh. This is life, this is real, my goal is to be a stay at home mommy to train my girls to have a heart that seeks after the Lord.

Sleep Over Tutu style

Last night we has my niece over for a slumber party and we made these fancy tutu's. I thought they would look kind of cheap because the instructions were so easy but actually they looked so nice people didn't believe I made them. Each one took about half an hour and cost about four dollars. I add a few extras than were not listed with the instructions, including bells and flowers. I had these two little ballerinas and everytime they took one step they chimed. The bell feature is quite nice with a three year old. I will post pictures of them later.

My first post, hopefully

Okay this is my third time writing the same thing and I keep messing it up, grrr. So I am going to try this again. I am the wife of the best husband ever!! He is so supportive and loving to me. I am the mommy to two amazing little girls, the littlest is like a kung fu expert or at least that is how she kicks my bladder. I have undergone fertility treatments, been poked like a lab rat, and even had surgery to finally become pregnant with my second baby, Daisy Mae Jenkins who will be brought into the world around December 15!! Our first little girl, Lily is going to be an awsome big sister. Lily loves to read Daisy stories and sing her You are my Sunshine.
