I was just thinking. . .

I am very happily married to my best friend, Josh since August 2004. We had our first baby girl, Allie this past August and are loving out new role as mom and dad. Josh is currently working at NBBC as well as heading up the youth group at our church. God has shown himself in great and mighty ways to us and we are excited about the work he is doing in both of our lives.

Well, here goes my attempt at this whole blogging thing! Although I've never had a blog, I figured this would be a great way to keep everyone up to date on what is going on in our lives ( if you really care to know) especially with the upcoming birth of our little baby girl (who I can't wait to meet!) . Her name you ask? Well now, that's one secret we are keeping until her arrival =) ! We were having such a time picking a name that we both liked, that we bought a baby book of names and basically went through the thing in two days and came up with nothing. But then voile!! It came to us and we've loved it ever since! And now that I've probably peaked your curiosity even more, I'll move on. . .

If you don't already know, I have been diabetic since I was 5 years old. So when the day came that we found out I was pregnant I was ecstatic! I don't think I can express how good God has been in this area of my life! He has protected me and kept me healthy- now that doesn't mean it's been perfect or easy, or that it will be in the future, but God's grace is sufficient!

I have 4 different doctors that I see regulary (yes, I know that's alot) - 2 of them are in Greenbay -which can become quite a drive after a while (especially with gas prices, YIKES!) But needless to say I feel like I am getting great care and a lot of encouragement and support from all sides. And so far everthing is going beautifully! Praise the Lord!

I had an ultrasound a couple weeks ago and for the second time we were able to see our baby, but this time we knew it was a SHE. The doctor gave us a 3D color dvd, and the detail is so amazing, I'm still working on trying to get it on my blog. I am now a little over 20 weeks - Halfway there!!

Well, I suppose this is a start into the blogging world, and I really could keep writing, but I'll try spread it out a little!
