It's already Wednesday...

Today is officially the day I have been the most anxious about since we even discussed trying to get pregnant again...tonight I will officially be more pregnant than I have ever been! It is a HUGE milestone for me and Jeff and I am so excited about today. I thank God every minute for getting me this far and for the continued peace he has filled my heart with...thanks to you Kel, when the panic sets in I stop and repeat over and over "God, please calm my anxious heart". That way I don't even have to think about praying I just start praying that until I feel the calm take over me, it works, it refocuses you. I am also excited because I feel really good, I have been keeping more busy this week and the time is actually moving a little faster. I don't go to the doctor till Friday and I think I am going to make it without calling to be seen before then, he will be so proud of me. So, I am feeling good and I am taking it easy but still getting out to do some activities with Katelyn which is what I need right now to make the days go by. I am anxious as always for Friday and will let you know what that appointment brings as we pass this first big week!

Now on for the good stuff...Katelyn! I have these two adorable pictures of our future artist, she LOVES coloring on the easel that her Nana and Grandpa gave her. She also loves to wear her precious apron. Her Nana and Aunt Beth have an online store with the CUTEST monogrammed items for babies and kids www.ittybittydesigns.net and that is where the apron is from. I think Kate is very ready for school to start back on Monday, she is bored and ready to be with other kids again. I am so ready for her to have that routine back in our days. She loves to color and do arts and crafts and the teachers at her school are so much better than I am about crafts! I also am ready for Kate to be back in the environment where she has to learn to share and take turns...this two year old stage is trying! So Monday we are back to school and I can't wait, she will go Monday, Wednesday and Fridays and in two weeks she will start gymnastics on Mondays! I am really looking forward to the fall.

Anyways, I have to run but wanted to check in and leave you all with these adorable pictures of Katelyn, I think she is SO darn cute but I am a little biased!

Kate is precious and such a thriving artist! :) I'm so glad things are going well and you're feeling good. Keep me posted on how your appointment goes this Friday although I already know it will be great. I can't wait to see you this weekend! BTW, I LOVE Kate's apron, Jeff's mom and sister are so talented!
