June...<3

My Frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be..Psalm 139:15-16

"When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts...A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child. Sophia Loren....
...oh so true.

Hello All!
Happy June :o) Seriously, what a great month… Sunshine, Swimming, Friends and fun… Oh and by the way, My sisters birthday too- So I’m pretty sure that we all think that this month is a great one. I’ve gotten a little behind on this thing So I’ll do my best in order to fill you guys in without boring your brains out.

I was very blessed to have a visit from one of my very best friends Camille. It’s been quite an adjustment for me moving back home, which by the way has been great, but just an adjustment because of me being used to doing what I want, when I want…whether that be something simple as getting a bowl of cereal at 12 o’clock at night or simply sitting in the living room instead of my room late at night because my bed is just not as comfortable as the couch :o) We’ve all made adjustments and it’s been a great process and I’m so blessed because my parents are pretty stinking amazing. Camille was great while she was here, we got some great shopping in, did facials, and just enjoyed our time together. She’s ADORABLE…and probably going to kill me once she sees that I posted these pictures…Sorry friend (Not really….hehehe)

This is me...

Next, Kelli and Justin finally purchased a house that they love. They are remodeling it at the moment and oh my gosh it’s seriously unrecognizable. Justin and My dad have been working on it hard and I can’t wait until it’s done because they have a guest room…which is already been claimed as mine. :o)

I was also very excited that I got a visit from Nick, who is spending the summer in Portland, Oregon. It was pretty funny to be able to witness his face when he got to experience some small town things because it’s a serious culture shock for him- and when someone asked him what he thought about Levelland… his response was “Its so county.” I thought that the answer was quite appropriate. He also thought it was so strange how everyone was so nice…and he does say the word like “Niaace”, thanks to our great accents.

Well let me tell you about Mister Mikah Jay- I’ve been having a little drama but I think that he is doing SO great. At the beginning of all of this I was having a little bleeding and finally got over that after an expensive one night stay in the hospital…ha, As to which was followed by some pretty heavy contractions. I wasn’t worried but as for my sister, that was a different story. You see, she’s a neonatal nurse and she’s been there and done that… So, Weekly I go in and I am monitored (Non Stress Test) and make sure that my contractions aren’t getting to strong or frequent…along with his blood pressure and everything else. Well, Dr. Atkinson was pretty worried about the contractions and wanted to make sure that I was being safe so I went ahead and had two doses of steroids to strengthen Mikahs lungs just in case he comes early. Now, as for momma, I’m pretty proud of this little guy because he weighs 4 pounds 7 ounces and he has made it to 32 weeks and 4 days. You go boy :o) If I can only make it at least to 35 weeks…around 10 pm, I would think that was pretty good (The reason I say that date and time is because I am in my best friend in the whole wide world, Jacki’s, wedding that day and she said that I could only make it till 10 pm, as to which her wedding is at 8…then we could take the limo to Lubbock to deliver this little man… I love her!!)
Ps…to all of the moms, Do you ever feel like your xiphoid process is ever going to reach its limit and pop off??? :o)


Just enjoying my NST : )

But as for everything else, I am still waiting on a call from Parkridge in order to start training. They said it usually takes about 6 weeks in order to get all of your references checked and so on and I am here waiting patiently on what God wants me to do in the mean time…which could possibly be rest for baby- but I’m ready to do it NOW God!! :o) I have also started going to a bible study called Can we talk by Priscilla Fisher with women of all ages. It’s perfect for me because I can find wisdom in so many of these women and girls my age who are momma’s and can offer me a little advice…Once again, thank you God for taking me in and taking care of me…You never fail!!


Ugghh, I feel like I’m forgetting something and I hate that feeling… Let me pop a few things offs in things that I want you guys to know and then I promise I’ll be done.

My Brother in law graduated pharmacy school…You go boy and is currently waiting on results from his other test he has to take in order to be certified (Im pretty sure he’ll be fine because he’s literally a genius.)

Kate is still the cutest thing on the planet earth.

My mom and dad celebrated their 27th anniversary on May 16th. What a love they have.

My friend LaRanda had her baby today- Funny story, the night before her water broke we were texting probably way to late and she was telling me her plans of what she would be doing. Now she realizes its not her timing…Its Gods :o) Healthy Baby Girl…Blakely.

My sister turns 27 on the 28th of this month…The ONLY time she is five years old than me… :)

Lastly, I interviewed for a Job at the Levelland ABC center for a teachers assistant job for pre-school on Tuesday in order to position myself for hire once I’m done with my teaching certificate in November. I’ll find out tomorrow if it’s a yes or a no…I’m praying for a YES but If God has different plans for me, He’ll place me where he wants me and I’ll have to start praying for different opportunities. I’ll let you guys know asap.

I hope you guys have an amazing rest of the week and I am anxious to hear from you!
xoxo!!
