So, we had a scare on Wednesday since Xanthe wasn't able to eat right away, but thanks to all the prayers so did start eating and they got to go home. She is SO beautiful - what a blessing!
I feel like we have been baby bombarded this weekend! First of all, it seems like EVERYONE has or is having babies!! We have been right in the middle of Xanthe coming into the world for the last week, then our friends Kandi and Steve had their baby so we were there Sunday afternoon before going to.... yep, Ryan went with me.... Babies R us for yet another baby shower gift. It seems like I have been spending a lot of time (and a LOT of money!) in that store... I almost started asking about rewards programs and stuff!!
I am feeling good that more and more we are assured that our lives are being held carefully in God's hands and that He has perfect timing for us for all the blessings that this life will bring. We are so thankful to have this time to grow together and learn more about each other before trying to bring another life into our crazy world!!
Well, I was really excited about having a long weekend, but it feels like I am more exhausted than I was before it started! We decided to start work on some (crazy and time-consuming) projects at home, I have had meals to cook and take places, a sick amount of cakes / cupcakes to make and take, lots of visiting and baby cooing to do, then as if I wasn't tired enough, we went to watch the game last night. I decided before we left that it would be better for me to go home at half-time since I really needed to get some sleep. I get home about 10:30 and started cleaning house and stuff, I had the game on the radio (yeah, no cable) talked to my friend Laurel for a while, then finally went to bed only I couldn't sleep because the game was now in overtime. I was so mad with the end result. I can't even talk about it right now. So here I am, sitting at my desk with giant bags under my eyes waiting, again, for the weekend!!
