Our Church recently had the privilege of buying a car for an awesome couple in our congregation. To make a long story short, they recently married, moved here from Mexico and are attending Ohio State. They have no family here, no car and a very limited income. They’ve been attending CAP for a while now and call it home. Their story was told two Sundays ago with an opportunity to give. This is what we were able to buy them!
I am so thankful to be part of such an amazing church.

Amercian Idol would be so much better if they cut out all the crap that doesn’t matter and get on with it already. If I didn’t record and watch later, I wouldn’t watch at all. But aren’t David A. and Carly absolutely amazing?
Shut up and sing!
I have since decided that while he has a good voice, he is too young and has fallen in my ratings. David Cook was absolutley amazing last week and I look forward to this weeks performance. However, Carly is still my girl!

We took Emmy to the Doctors for her first check up on Saturday. She was up from 8 lbs when we left the hospital on Sunday to 9.4 lbs. I love it! Chubby babies are the cutest…and she definitely qualifies.

OK, so I’m coming down to the end of my pregnancy…hopefully… cause I don’t know how much longer I can take! Don’t get me wrong I wouldn’t trade this for anything, but I’m definitely ready to get this child outta me and to finally meet her. I have about 4 weeks left and praying that I go sooner although I think that she’s gonna come when SHE is good and ready…not her mama. So before this little one decides to make her entrance into this world I thought I would write about my particular joys of pregnancy. Here it goes…
1) Constant peeing…yep I realize that when you’re prego you have to go to the bathroom a lot more, but never did I imagine this much. I mean getting up every 45 min. during the middle of the night seems a bit extreme to me. I guess it’s a cruel way of getting you used to getting up with your new baby, but still….
2)Weight gain…of course you expect to put on some poundage during your pregnancy, but for someone my height it’s pretty hard to handle. I think I’ve got to the point where I’ve pretty much come to a stand still. I better have or I won’t be able to walk due to back pain.
3) Fluid retention…I’ve tried really hard to watch my sodium intake to cut down on this, but nope, didn’t work. I get extremely swollen…and this heat doesn’t help. I haven’t been able to wear my wedding rings since the 4th month and I don’t think I’ll be seeing them again for quite a while. Sometimes I look down at my fingers and realize that I now have man hands and my feet…wow….my family loves to laugh at me whenI get really bloated…nice, huh?
4) Emotional roller coaster…I never really thought I was an emotional kind of girl, but lately I don’t even know myself. One minute I will be perfectly fine and the next I’m bawling like a baby…usually over something really stupid. My husband..the amazing man that he is…tries to comfort me, but I never really have a good reason as to why I’m crying….sometimes I just don’t know. But when he’s around, he usually says something to make me laugh and then we continue laughing at what a weirdo I am.
All of this said I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Nothing beats the joy of feeling your baby move inside you. Feeling her little foot or hand and being able to watch as she moves your belly. Some of my favorite moments have just been sitting on the couch with my and my husbands hands on my belly and feeling her kick against us. We’re about to experience one of the greatest joys life has to offer…being parents..and we wouldn’t trade it for anything!! Emberlynn Grace….hurry it up! Mommy and Daddy wanna meet you!
