Happenings

Actually, there aren't a lot of happenings around here this week, except that I am slowly getting to that "lose your mind at the end of pregnancy" feeling.  I've started to lose things (can't find my blue tooth thingy anywhere...so frustrating), misplacing things that I just had in my hands two seconds ago, slightly irrational mood swings :) , and very vivid baby dreams. Last night we had a sweet family over for dinner and really enjoyed out time with them. Before they left, I asked about their c-section experiences...she's had 5! One "normal" delivery and her 7th is due four days after ours! :) Anyways, she was so sweet to share everything with me, and just kind of give Matt and I a heads up on what to expect. However, I did have babymares all night about having c-sections, not being able to move, and waking up and not being able to find the baby...and then when I did find her she didn't look anything like us and weighed over 10 lbs! Crazy! :) Ahhh...the joys of pregnancy. 

  But before this chat begins to sound despairing, let me share what awesome things God is doing! I am so thankful to be blessed with a healthy pregnancy and baby and don't ever want to take for granted God's provision for a hospital and a safe delivery option for both of us. Also, just as I was typing this my neighbor came over and handed my blue tooth!!!! WooHoo! I can stop obsessing about that one! :) Praise the Lord. Also, my mommy bought tickets to come out and see me! Yippee! I'm so excited and can't wait to have my mommy here! Sure hope my kids still feel the same way about me someday! :) 

  Lets see other random happenings...oh, Oma comes tomorrow for the Easter weekend! Everyone is very excited at our house...and speaking of which I should probably go clean so that the house is ready! :) Hope everyone is having a blessed Holy Week and seeing God's hand over them in very specific ways . God has really been putting on my heart that He is God on His throne and yet He loves me...enough to die for me and care for me in every detail of my life. Thank you Lord.
