Lincoln's Room

We've been spending some time decorating the baby room. We LOVE the farm theme.

Our grandparents both had farms growing up and we've had many of our best childhood memories on the farm so it worked well for us both.

God is Amazing...

Today I saw what was the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life. Our little baby boy growing inside my tummy. I've gone to Europe... seen beautiful sunsets, buildings, mountains, oceans... nothing compares to this. Nothing.

I couldn't help but marvel at how incredibly God designed His creation to work. Everyone says a baby is a miracle but when you see that little baby growing inside you and see the little heart beating away - the wonder of it all can take your breath away like nothing else. I can't thank God enough for allowing Chris and I to experience His creation and this little miracle in such a personal way.

I cried when the technician told us it was a boy. I really didn't care at all either way but I knew Christopher secretly has always dreamed of a little boy. When I looked at my husband's face and saw literally the most joy I have ever seen a human show... I couldn't help but cry.

What a good day. The baby looked great and seemed to be growing very healthy. We are ecstatic.
