Baby shower in Tulsa!

We had a great time this past week in Tulsa! We were on spring break so we decided to make the loooong car ride up to Tulsa to visit family and have a baby shower. We are always so amazed at how thoughtful and generous our friends and family are! We have started to get the room together so pictures of that will be up soon!

It's about time for an update!

I have not been very good this month about blogging have I? Well, I have been trying to wait until something blog worthy came along i guess. Jeremy has been hanging in there with all of his school work this term. Since we came off of our research week it seems like Jeremy's work load has been pretty non stop. We only have a week and a half of school left for this term and then we have SPRING BREAK! After that we only have one more term until the summer break is here. This year is going by way too fast!
Things have been going along smoothly with the baby and I have been feeling great! He is moving around ALL the time and that is the greatest feeling in the world.:) I am now 25 weeks along and i am getting bigger by the day, I love my baby bump!
We went to Wichita Falls this weekend for Chris and Lydia's wedding shower. It has been so wonderful to see Chris so happy and in love and we are all very excited about the wedding!
Please be praying for our classmates as we have had alot of illness going around the past few weeks. It just seems like the flu has hit really hard this year. Please also pray for endurance so that we can finish out this term strong. We love you all!

It's a BOY!

Here is our beautiful baby boy! We are so excited and feel so blessed to have had a very healthy pregnancy so far. To be honset I really felt like it was a boy ever since we found out I was pregnant.. I guess you could call it my motherly instinct right? :) Well anyway, we are very excited to start picking out names and baby stuff. We love him so much already!

Back to the real world...

Life has been pretty easy for us these past few weeks since we have been off on our Christmas break. We went to Wichita Falls and stayed there for about a week and then we headed off to Tulsa to see Jeremy's family for a week. We spent most of our time relaxing (well maybe i should say being VERY lazy) and enjoying time with family. We spent Christmas in Wichita Falls and had a great time with my parents and Chris and Lydia. We are very blessed to have Lydia as the newest member of our family, she always makes things more fun and interesting for all of us. :) We are back in Lubbock now and we start school on Monday... I think we are ready to get back into the routine of school but we really did enjoy our time off. This is the first time since we have been married that we did not have to rush back home for work after the holidays. The Lord has blessed us tremendously over the past year and I can't wait to see what He has in store for us this year!

Baby Aaron!!!

This is our first official baby picture! We went to the doctor on Monday and they did the ultrasound and that was the most amazing thing Jeremy and I have ever seen. I think we were just in awe of God's perfect little creation. It was moving around and waving it's little arms and legs and seemed to be so content. The doctor said that everything looked very normal and that all of my blood work came back normal as well from my first appointment. We are so excited and nervous to meet our little one in a few months! It is a little intimidating to think that we will be bringing an eternal being into this world, that we are the ones primarily responsible for bringing them to Christ. We have been in a class called Christian Home this term and we have learned so much about how to bring up a child in a happy nurturing home (the timing could not been more perfect for this class) and we have learned a lot about the do's and dont's of Christian parenting. We both were blessed to have been brought up in loving Christian homes and I think the best thing we can do is to take from those experiences in our own homes and mold them into our own lives. Please be praying for us these next few months as we prepare our home and our marriage for this little blessing. We love you all and can't wait to see you over the holidays!

Christmas time is here again!!

Well, I could not figure out how to rotate the pictures so sorry that you have to look at them sideways! We had a lot of Christmas fun this weekend with our friends Robin and Chrissy. We went and bought our trees and then went back to their house and put theirs up and we put ours up today. Now I am in the Christmas mood! :) I guess I will put a little school update here... The past few weeks have been pretty busy and this term has proven to be much more challenging. Jeremy is taking a Greek class and is doing VERY well in it. He also has a few other classes that deal more with evangelism and sermon writing. My classes are about the same but I did have to give my first little speech in my speech class this week and it went very well. We are adjusting to the idea of having a little one here in about 7 months or so and things have been going very well as far as me feeling good and all. I feel very blessed to have had almost no major sickness during the last few weeks. God is good!

It's baby time!

I am sure that most of you know this by now but I found out last Monday that I am pregnant! Yep, that's right PREGNANT. I think that both Jeremy and I are still in shock but the more that we tell people the more it is sinking in. I will have my first doctors appointment next Wednesday (Nov 14) but the nurse told me on the phone that I should be about 6 weeks along right now. Jeremy is very excited and has already put his order in for a boy. :) We told my parents this weekend and they were surprised but I know they are ready to be grandparents and Jeremy's parents are ready to be grandparents as well. We are very blessed to have parents who support us in everything that we do and I know that between the four of them our child will be VERY spoiled. Please keep us in your prayers!!
