venting

so i know im supposed to love being pregnant, and there are some things that i love. i love feeling him move around and watching my stomach change shape when he rolls around. i like not worrying about what im eating as much. i like being taken care of by my husband. i like the vivid dreams too (when i actually get to sleep). i like all of that.

but there are things i dont like.

i dont like the backache that wont go away. i dont like not being able to sleep!!!!!!!! i dont like peeing every 15 minutes. im soooo stinkin tired cause i cant sleep at night anymore. i cant get comfortable, and if i do get into a good position, all of a sudden im too warm and then after i turn on the fan i have to pee again and then when i come back ian is in the middle of the bed and i have to wake him up and turn him over … and then by the time thats done i have to pee again.

*sigh.

there is my rant.

i cant wait for him to get here! although i know ill be getting waaaay less sleep then, than i am getting now!

Song of the day

 

Here are the lyrics:

When the saints go marching in – Sara Groves

“Lord I have a heavy burden of all I’ve seen and know 
It’s more than I can handle 
But your word is burning like a fire shut up in my bones 
and I cannot let it go 

And when I’m weary and overwrought 
with so many battles left unfought 

I think of Paul and Silas in the prison yard 
I hear their song of freedom rising to the stars 
And when the Saints go marching in 
I want to be one of them 

Lord it’s all that I can’t carry and cannot leave behind 
it often overwhelms me
but when I think of all who’ve gone before and lived the faithful life
their courage compells me
And when I’m weary and overwrought 
with so many battles left unfought 

I think of Paul and Silas in the prison yard 
I hear their song of freedom rising to the stars 

I see the shepherd Moses in the Pharohs court 
I hear his call for freedom for the people of the Lord 

And when the Saints go marching in 
I want to be one of them 
And when the Saints go marching in 
I want to be one of them 

I see the long quiet walk along the Underground Railroad 
I see the slave awakening to the value of her soul 

I see the young missionary and the angry spear 
I see his family returning with no trace of fear 

I see the long hard shadows of Calcutta nights 
I see the sisters standing by the dying man’s side 

I see the young girl huddled on the brothel floor 
I see the man with a passion come and kicking down the door 

I see the man of sorrows and his long troubled road 
I see the world on his shoulders and my easy load

And when the Saints go marching in
I want to be one of them
and when the Saints go marching in
I want to be one of them”

Its A…

Boy!!!

We had an ultrasound this morning, and we are definitely having a boy!! It was amazing. The ultrasound lady was like… “wow hes very active”. hahahahha he kept flippin around and stuff.  If i could figure out how to post the ultrasound pictures I would, but im pretty sure i have no idea how to do that.

After seeing him, im really excited. Its really strange that im gonna have a son though. Im still gettin used to the thought.

tomorrow

this doesnt count as an update but i just figured i would share my excitement for finding out boy or girl tomorrow morning!!!!!!!

ill definitely update to let everyone know!! (along with texting!! )

song of the day

yeah i know i dont do this every day… but so what?

todays song of the day is “stars” by the david crowder band. the slideshow is pretty nifty too.

you should see the stars tonight
how they shimmer shine so bright
against the black they look so white
comin down from such a height
to reach me now, reach me now

you should see the moon in the flight
cuttin cross the misty night
softly dancin in sunshine
reflections of this light
reach me now, you reach me now

and how could such a thing
shine its light on me
and make everything beautiful again

and you should feel the sun in the spring
comin out after a rain
suddenly all is green
sunshine on everything
i can feel it now, i feel you now

and how could such a thing
shine its light on me
and make everything beautiful

and you should hear the angels sing
all gathered round their king
more beautiful than you could dream
i’ve been quietly listening
you can hear ‘em now, i hear em now

and how could such a king
shine His light on me
and make everything beautiful
and i wanna shine
i wanna be light
i wanna tell you it’ll be alright
and i wanna shine and i wanna fly
just to tell you now
it’ll be alright, it’ll be alright
it’ll be alright.

cus i got nothing of my own to give to you
but this light that shines on me shines on you
and makes everything beautiful, again.

movin

Beautiful.

Aaron. You would love this song. You have to listen to the whole song.

This is my favorite band in the entire universe.  Nothing describes my heart more than their lyrics do.

 

Take 5 Minutes

And refocus on how awesome our God is, and why we are on this earth.
