in like a lion out like a lamb?

Valentine's day we found out that I'm pregnant- yippy! Our second baby is due Oct. 16th. For the first several weeks I was feeling great but at about 7wks. I started to go down-hill, there's nothing like being sick physically to remind me of my weakness and dependence on God. Every morning there are now mercies but about 2pm I feel temped to be discouraged and grumpy as I feel terrible. I count down the hours (sometimes minutes) 'til Clay gets home but even in those trying moments God is faithful and I survive. Enough about my complaining...seriously, I am amazed at the daily amount of grace God gives me. When I think it's too much either a friend, sister or my husband will call and clean my kitchen, make dinner, watch Giselle or encourage me. Giselle's birthday was fun, we just had a family party as I didn't think many people would want to be at a one yr. old's party. Plus our family hasn't had a get-together in a while. Everyone was so generous and thoughtful. This year with Giselle was a huge joy and learning experience. Ever new season of life brings new challenges, but I am still learning to be a mom and wife. clay has been such a great dad. He is so understanding when I'm sick and takes over with Giselle all the time. I am a blessed girl...::March 2, 2009 the day my girly was born::

I've been putting Giselle to bed at about 6:45 lately so after dinner at my parents when the party was supposed to begin she was falling asleep.

Giselle and Brookie have been noticing each other more lately and Giselle is actually being semi gentle with her
