Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!


We are all doing great. I am feeling wonderful and the kids are still reeling from Christmas and New Years, which Sarah described as "a great party!" They had so much fun this season that they keep asking what's next. Dad, don't be surprised if the kids keep talking about your birthday next month. That's the only thing that's next.

I am finally done with the medication pump and I was discharged from services Monday! Hallelujah! My belly is getting bigger everyday and they baby's movement have finally turned into the enjoyable little kicks and pokes instead of the annoying and painful rolling. I am 17 weeks today and I get an ultrasound tomorrow and hopefully the baby will cooperate and I'll find out if it's a boy or girl. I'll catch a glimpse of myself as I pass a mirror and am still in disbelief that I'm pregnant. I'm just having a hard time wrapping my mind around it and the whole 3 kids thing. I have a hard enough time with 2 how will I do 3?

The New Year is bringing big changes for us. Most importantly we are going to start doing our Daily Bible readings with the children. In order for that to happen I resolve to get dinner on the table by 5:30 every night instead of 6:30. That way we have time for reading and bath time and bed doesn't interfere. Also, I resolve to do Daily Devotions with the kids in the mornings. I might just do it with Michael since today Sarah really didn't seem ready. And it's something that he and I can do together.

I pray the new year bring each and every one of you health and happiness.

Love,
Dawn
