God is GOOD!!!

Bloggers-I'm about to be blessed!!! If you'll recall a few posts back, we had gone to an open house for a new pre-natal program the doctor's office was starting. We had been given a free 'Pack-n-Play.' Well, we had to go tonight for orientation and to find out the class schedules, etc.

While we were there, the lady told us since we were still the only couple attending and it was a new program, they were going to give us all our pre-natal care ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!!! We're even going to get back all our money we had paid for the dr's visits previously!!!! (Insert shouting!!!) I have a bill still waiting on the fridge to be paid and it's all been cleared!!! She called the "head" man over billing and he said he's going to mail us a check next week and that our ultrasound is free next Wednesday. No matter what I have to do for pre-natal visits, they will all be FREE!!!!

Isn't God GOOD????? Bro. Miller just preached in chapel today about being in God's will. He said you may not have a lot of money or drive nice cars, but God always provides. I have a very specific way in showing that now...I wonder if the people here at the library would be disturbed if I had a shouting spell??!!??!! :)

It was a gorgeous spring day here and I felt so alive! I even had energy left at the end of the school day. So, I quickly went home to change and proceeded to take a walk...I was feeling so good! (Amazing how the weather can boost one's spirits!) After I got done, I got right into cooking supper...another amazing feat for me these days. My energy didn't last very long because I promptly fell asleep right after supper and took a nap. HA! So much for that...

We're in revival this week with Henry Miller and his wife. It's been very encouraging and uplifting. They are doing an excellent job and I've actually been feeling "revived." I don't like hearing "doom and gloom" all the time...it's not what our Christian walk is about. Folks-It's exciting serving Jesus...

We're "supposed" to find out a week from today what we're having. I asked my class today what they thought it was: All 3 boys said-boy and all 3 girls said-girl. A couple of them proceeded to tell me they thought it was two! I then asked what they thought I should decorate the nursery in...you never know what kids are going to say, but most of their answers made sense. One girl told me it should have "sparkles" everywhere and another said lots of pink and flowers-"girly" stuff. The boys said it should be painted green or blue and have race cars-with #1 car winning. :)

We didn't do "fancy" outfits this year, partly because I didn't want to pay out the wazoo when I couldn't wear mine very long. Another reason was because my dearest, darling, wonderful husband left his good suit in Illinois. So, we opted for comfort instead...

My sister found an "Easter Bonnet." :)

He is Risen...

He is Risen indeed!!!

Happy Easter!

Serenaded...

Wesley kept following me around this morning singing, "You're stuck with me, forever!..." I'm thinking the word "stuck" just about explains it right now... :) :)

Notice the pizza board as his guitar...

Spring Break

**Wes and I have had a great Spring Break. (For some reason, I haven't taken many pictures this year, so I don't have any to share. I know...they make blogs more interesting. Guess I'm saving my camera from the meltdown it's going to suffer from in August.) We headed out after school to Illinois. Mom was able to join us on Friday and Saturday, so we had fun going to the Amish stores and the ever famous Daisy Lane...best scrapbooking store you'll find.
**Went to my grandparents for a YUMMY supper and my favorite pie. They had saved my baby bed, so Wesley loaded it up and we're going to fix that up and use. Thought that was kinda cool...mom got it used so who knows how old it is.
**Sunday, since there is only about 6 in their church, I played the piano. HA! It was beautimus let me tell ya! Wes's grandparents and aunt came over for lunch and we celebrated the months birthdays.
**Mon & Tues, Trish and I did our favorite things...scrapbooking & shopping. We had a blast!!!
We had to be back Wed for a nutritional appointment, so we headed to mom's after that. We've just been taking it easy here. Mom was able to take a day off...which she never gets to do. We're going to stay here until Easter. My little sister is on choir tour, so we didn't get to spend any time with her. Her bed did come in handy, however!
**Monday takes us back to reality, but I think Spring may be on it's way! YAY!!! I also realized, we have less than 2 months until graduation.

Ding, ding, ding! You're the WINNER!

Wes and I went to an open house tonight at the doctor's office to learn about this new prenatal care thing they're wanting to start. They called to invite me a couple of weeks ago and then sent 2 invitations. It was supposed to only last an hour and they said there was going to be lots of prizes! We decided to go ahead and go just in case we might get lucky! And, it just so happens, we were...

We are now the proud owners of a "Pack 'n Play." We were the lucky number...HA HA HA! We were the only ones that showed up! The poor people had all of this planned, lots of food, and prizes. I kinda felt sorry for them, but we got to choose whatever prize we wanted. Oh, and we got a bunny too.

And now I'm off to pack and pray that I have enough clothes (THAT FIT) to last the trip. Spring break is just around the corner and I'm about to have a shouting spell!!!!!

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to Gary, Wes's dad! Tell Nancy to treat you like a king!

Confession...

OK!!...Is it normal for pregnant women to get incredibly aggravated at practically anything?? All, I gotta say is GRRRRRRR...yes, I feel a little bit better now. (You may want to pray for those around me as their very lives are at stake. And, no, it's not Wesley either. He's learned just to hide...ha ha.) Guess I won't be having my 12 kids that I oh, so longed for. ;) This aggravation and constant emotional beating is just about more than I can handle. Run, people, run...or better yet... pray, people, pray!

3 more school days until Spring Break!!

Please, oh please, come visit us in jail if we get arrested for tax fraud!

This is Wes's first year to fill out our taxes. ;)

4 School Days until Spring Break!!

School was dismissed 2 hrs early on Friday b/c of the snow. (I think that this should be mandatory for all Fridays). Wes and I had planned on going to mom's for the night, so we got our stuff ready and headed out anyways. We all went out for supper to celebrate Rachel's birthday and all of us girls ended up getting the giggles and even another waiter decided to join in the fun. Sometimes, I'm not sure what Wesley thinks about being the only guy in the family. He's probably praying for a boy!

Wes met his brother & wife, while they were passing through town, and was able to pick up his Christmas present. He had requested money for this and was finally able to get it. We still have my 2-door Cavalier and he managed to somehow fit it in and got it back to Columbus.

And now it's about time to head to bed...some "goofball" decided that us Hoosiers needed to change time! I wonder how many people will sleep through Sunday School tomorrow? Hopefully, it's not us...

5 School Days until SPRING BREAK!!!!

Happy Birthday Little Sis!

WE LOVE YOU!

Wes & Jen :)

Monday Happenings

We went to the doctor today b/c my last appointment he couldn't find the heartbeat. We waited 1 hr and 15 mins for a 10 min visit. The doctor was behind his scheduling...(I'd say!) The heartbeat was 156 and he said everything was going great so far! He moved our ultrasound to the beginning of April. More waiting... After the doctor's visit, we rushed home and Wes helped me prepare my dip for the church's monthly ladies meeting. It was really yummy...7 Layer Mexican Dip! After hastily getting ready, I finally caught my breath at the ladies meeting. We played a game and I won!! My prize...

And the countdown to Spring Break begins...9 school days left!!! :)

Fun with Friends

Yesterday, we went to Cincinnati to visit with Scott and Lynnette, some friends of mine from college. (Wesley actually grew up with Nette and her and I roomed together for a semester...small world.) We had a great time and didn't end up getting home until 2:30 am. I'm just not cut out for these late nights anymore! I kept dozing off and when I would wake up, I always thought Wes was about to crash! (I'm not sure what I'm going to do when the baby insists that I'm up in the night! Hopefully, my mommy instincts will kick in because I used to be able to sleep through a tornado. Nothing could wake me up. Guess that will all change in a few short months!)

Wes got in a little practice...he ignored me when I said he come could learn how to change a diaper though. "That's OK, hon, when he's not your kid, but you ARE going to learn for ours. Don't make me sic all the women in the family on you!" :) I have every bit of confidence that Wes will be a big help with our children!!!
