Loving some good things today!

I'm linking up with Jaime for her WILW blog...I guess I need to figure out how to tag her name so you can go check out her blog as well! 

I'm loving
 my health and safety! I have a few points for this one. 1. I thank God everyday for the health that he has given me and I never want to take it for granted. As I look back to my mom's parents, my Granny and Papa, they are as healthy as they were 20 years ago! They have never had any major problems with their health...no cancer( and i'm not counting skin cancer), no diseases, no major illnesses and that's the same for my parents. They are in their mid 50's ( I'm sure they don't mind that I'm sharing thier age! ) and have never had any problems with health. As for me, I have never had to go to the hospital, I RARELY get a cold, and I am very healthy. Now, part of it is how my parents have raised me but that other part of health...the parts that you can't control....I have been blessed by God to not have! And I am very grateful and I pray everyday that he continues to keep illness away from our family.



 2. I had a major " thank you Lord for blessing me with the safe, comfortable life I have living in America" last Sunday. We are so blessed to be in a country that has no fighting( as in war type fighting ), no bombs going off everyday, no violence in the streets etc...The war hit home last week and at church on Sunday when it was announced that Kevin Baldulf died while fighting for the country. He was in the Marines. Kevin attended the same school as I did and he was in the youth group with me at Woodmont Hills. Keep his family in your prayers...especially his twin brother and mother, Jenny. I teared up at church while our preacher was praying about this b/c like I said it really hit home this time. It wasn't a random name of a soldier that was being talked about on the news. SO I am LOVING and very thankful for my safety and my wonderful life here in America!

On a lighter note :)

in just a little over a week Brent and I will find out if Baby E is a "she" or a "he" which also means we will be registering for baby stuff very soon!! We are so excited about this. haha. We have already compared prices at a few stores and have made our list of baby items that we will be registering for. There is SO much out there! I spent a few hours, yes hours, the other day looking through pages and pages on Target.com and Babies-R-Us.com and thinking "wow this registering thing is going to take a while"! After reading review after review, I think we are good to go and ready for that scan gun! Come on May 27th! and May 28th..the big reveal party day!!

I'm Loving
that it's almost Saturday aka sleep in for a long time day! haha. I love the feeling of going to bed Friday night and knowing that I don't have to set an alarm and I can wake up whenever my body feels like it on Saturday morning. I'm trying to take advantage while I can :) I have always been a person who needs my sleep! Ask my mom :) I just really don't do well with little sleep especially now! I have definitely noticed that my energy level has gone back up from where it was in the first trimester but when I get home from work in the evening, I could go straight to bed and not wake up till morning! I haven't tried it yet but I might soon!

I'm loving
my husband, Brent! He is the best and I'm glad he is all mine! He is the sweetest and most kind and thoughtful guy in the world. I love you Brent and I'm so glad that we have an entire lifetime together!





We have a great life together!

~Brent and Rachel~
