30 weeks down, 10 more to go!

30 weeks!!!! Horray! I feel like I am getting bigger every day now! like HUGE. I cannot imagine him having much room to grow anymore! I've been getting quite a few braxton hicks lately, it gets me really excited about going into labor, i cannot WAIT!!!!!!!!!!
My shower is a week from now!! This coming Saturday. I cannot wait to celebrate Ronan's life.
On monday we have our 3rd (out of 4) child birthing class. This will be the one where we have to watch the "video" hehe, Brian is NOT looking forward to it. I personally cannot wait to see his reaction.
Not much else is going on right now. Brian took some time off work because he threw out his back. I'm not complaining all that much because It's great taking care of him and having him home. Sad that he is hurting, but happy he's here :)
We got a swing a little bit ago, and finally got the batteries for it today. It's so fun playing with it and imagining my little babe taking naps in there, or looking at all the little gadgets with wonder.
I SO look forward to seeing his precious little face. The face God created for him. It's a miracle to know that he is kniting him together right now as we speak! Well, he is pretty much already knitted, he's just getting fatter now :)
I long to look into those precious little eyes, knowing that this child is MINE and I am meant to take care of him, he is my miracle, my gift from God...

I am SO EXCITED!!!!!!

29 weeks pregnant

I know I know, I'm two weeks behind and not even a picture to show for it as of now!!! I'm terrible. It's been a very busy couple of weeks. We finally got another car for Brian, YAY, we had to bomb our house because of fleas after that (thanks Hazel) However, Hazel never seemed to really even be carrying the fleas, they only seemed interested in me :( yuck. Brian set off the bombs and the three of us, well, four of us if you count Ronan hanging out in my tum tum, head over to Forest Park. I don't know if any of you have been there, but it's amazing! There was like no one else there! We hiked for awhile, but I started getting some uncomfortable braxton hicks, so I figured my body was telling me to slow down. We made it back to our car, but we still had 2 hours to kill because the bomb took 4 hours! So we put the seats down in our small suv pulled out blankets and pillows and watched a movie on our portable dvd player while we ate the lunches i packed. haha sounds dorky, but it was actually a lot of fun. I ended up falling asleep the majority of the time, then we finally headed back to air out the house. Once that was finished it was already time to rush out to our childbirthing class! it was SO FUN!!! Somewhat silly and embarressing, but still fun. It was neat being in a classroom with Brian. He was such a goof :) We practiced breathing techniques, and different positions for comfort during labor. I look forward to this monday as well!
I also started a new Bible study which I am enjoying, and volleyball is still treckin' along. My days are pretty busy these days, and yet i'm still doing a really good job keeping up on all my home responsabilities too! I'm so proud of myself!!!
Only about 13 more days until my baby shower! I am so excited!!! And 11 more weeks until my little miracle arrives. Please Lord, deliver him safely :)
Not much has changed with my body, it is a little bigger. People on the streets that I don't know can deffinatly tell i'm pregnant now which is exciting!! Still no stretch marks, hmmm i wonder if they are waiting to pop up at the very end hehe, we'll see. I really don't care either way. I'm just blessed beyond blessed to have this strong little boy kicking at me everyday. I love him so much already it's ridiculous. I did NOTHING to deserve this little boy. God is just that good. Thank you Lord.
Pictures coming soon, i promise...

27 weeks

Today is September 4th, which means exactly 3 more months until our due date!!! YAY for the third trimester!!!! SO CLOSE, but it still seems so far away.

A lot has happened, or is happening. Brian's car broke down :( so now we begin the search for another vehicle. Preferably an incredibly inexpensive one that will last us atleast a year with no problems. After then we hope to get a somewhat decent vehicle for Brian to drive. We are also currently working on a loan reconstruction for our mortgage, praying that our monthly payments will drop so that Brian can switch to one job. Brian is also hoping to transfer to the Costco closest to our hope. Right now his commute is about 45 minutes give or take, each way.
My brother in law Brandon is moving out. He has been renting a room from us for about 6 months now. We will miss seeing him, but it will also be nice to have some times together before Ronan comes :) We miss the privacy we had, so that will be cool. I will also have another project to work on. The guest bedroom!! I will be painting that hideous room and making it all pretty for guests (mostly parents when they come to help out after Ronan is born)
Other than that, things are going very awesome. I feel blessed to say that pregnancy wise, everything is still looking good. Ronan is deffinatly establishing a routine. He is so active at times my belly looks like a bouncy house! haha, I love every minute of it though. God trully has blessed our socks off. Every time I feel this little blessing move inside me, I am about brought to tears. I know I don't deserve this miracle. I know he is a gift, and promise from my loving Savior.

Only 3 months to go until I hold you in my arms Ronan!!! I cannot wait to care for you, and snuggle you! You are going to be surrounded by family and friends who are just going to love you to pieces.
Please stay safe little one. I know God has great plans for you!
