5 Years Ago

Happy Birthday Cooper! I cannot believe that it has been 5 years since you have come into our lives. We have never been the same and I can't imagine life without you in it. You have the sweetest spirit. You care so much and are growing into a little man. I am excited to see how the Lord will use you throughout your life. Your Dad and I's prayer is that you would be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and come to realize that you need Jesus in your heart. What a glorious day that will be when I get to see my oldest child accept Jesus Christ! We love you so much and these past 5 years have been an absolute blast!

Making Progress...

Today was my 36 week check up and things are going well. I am 1/2 a centimeter and she could touch his head. So he is head down ready to come and we are all very ready to meet him!!

Things are going well and I have my last baby shower this week at our church. I am excited to get all the last minute stuff and be completely ready for him to come!

Family Pics

You can now see some of our pics at my Sister-in-laws blog.

I love them! What cute little guys I have!!

Weekly Visits

Today began my weekly trips to the doctor. We are in the home stretch! I am very excited! I have not started to progress yet but I am having Braxton Hicks like crazy. They very much annoy me.

The only good news is that 5 weeks from today I will be holding my sweet baby boy no matter if he comes early or not. June 21st is our day for induction if he decides to wait.

I will update weekly on my appointments.

Happy 35 weeks!

Pictures

Well I am a little behind on getting Colton's 2 year pics and with Cooper turning 5 this month I just called up my sister-in-law and we went out for a session for the boys but ending up doing some family and maternity shots as well. And Colton is still 2, just 5 months late in getting his done, he will never know :)

She put up a sneak peek of our session and I love the pic!! I cannot wait to see all of them!!!

Mother's Day

As I sit here tonight very tired and ready for bed I just can't stop thinking about Mother's Day tomorrow. It's still hard for me to believe that God chose me to be the Mom to Cooper and Colton. I never take that for granted and as Caden is just kicking all of my insides I am so thankful to be pregnant. I am not one that enjoys it much at all but this pregnancy has been the best out of the 3 so that is something I am very thankful for.

If you would have told me 8 years ago when I was graduating High School that I would be married for 6 years and expecting our 3rd child at the age of 26 I don't know if I would have thought that possible. But God has truely blessed me beyond what I could have ever imagined. He gave me the most amazing husband in this world and 2 of the sweetest and most handsome boys that I have ever seen. I lately have been just so thankful for everything that we do have and I pray I never take anyone of my boys for granted. I cannot wait to meet our precious baby boy and hold him in my arms but until then I will try and enjoy these last few weeks of being pregnant.

Thank you Lord for choosing me to be a Mom to these precious children You have given me. I pray that I will always be led by You in raising them in a Godly manner.
