Since our last blog our lives have totally changed(definately for the better!). We found out we're having a baby!! Not only are we having a baby, but we're having a little girl! She's due to make her arrival May 31st and we can't wait! Our current baby struggle right now is picking a name! We welcome any suggestions!!!

Per my Uncle Gordon's request - here's a picture of The Belly at 15 weeks (2 weeks ago)
As with any other family this time of year, Ryan and I have been very busy with the holidays and holiday shopping! Since I don't work the shopping has fallen all on me. I don't mind at all because I can go at times when places are less crowded which helps, but I'm very thankful that all our shopping is done and has been for a little over a week! Since Christmas Day is ALWAYS a busy day for us, we get to have Christmas with my family early! We exchange gifts with them on Christmas Eve. Who doesn't love getting presents early? Ryan and I will get to exchange gifts on Christmas Day this year (for the first time!) then head to his parent's house for breakfast and to exchange gifts with his family then head to Spartanburg for 2 days to do Christmas with my extended family. I just LOVE this time of year! It's also VERY exciting to think how different Christmas will be next year with a 7 month old! Santa comes next year!!! :)
We hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and safe travels! Also, remember what we're truly celebrating!
Luke 2:9-12
And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. (10) And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy that will be for all the people. (11) For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. (12) And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”
