22 Weeks...

Precious Baby, you are a busy little bee!! What are you doing in there? I am just certain that you are going to be either a fabulous dancer or excellent soccer player, who knows, maybe both! But it is such a JOY to feel your little kicks all day, and night, long!!

This week was so so fun as we began to prepare for your nursery and arrival!! Early in the week we met with a sweet woman who will be making all of your bedding... even though we are not finding out what you are until you arrive, there will be ONE person who knows!! I am just too particular to have a "gender neutral" nursery.... so, I have picked out fabrics for you if you are a girl and others if you are a boy... she will be finding out from our doctor and will start making everything for your room!! (Once you are delivered, my mom and some sweet friends will pick up the items from her house and come set up your room before you even come home!!).

You will also be VERY proud of your momma... I have started to exercise!! That is right.. I have joined the gym here in Coppell and now am exercising to keep my energy UP and UP the closer you get to arriving!



I also learned an invaluable lesson... no more horizontal stripes for my weekly pictures.

I absolutely love how you aren't finding out, but will still have your nursery all ready either way! I always say that when we have kids I won't want to know what we're having, but have always disliked gender neutral nurseries! GREAT IDEA!!!

Rector 2.0

So, on April 2, 2011, I woke up to this... I immediately showed Eleanor to confirm... "Momma, are you kidding me??!!" So, we held off telling our families until Easter and had a great plan to reveal Eleanor as the BIG SISTER at the dinner table... we didn't think about that lunch was right after her nap, so she was a little groggy and looks unhappy, but we couldn't keep it anymore.... So a few days later we tried to take some pictures again to prove that Eleanor is VERY excited! We can't wait to meet you, Baby Rector #2!! As of now, we look forward to November 22nd when you will enter this world... (you are due December 1, but because I will have a C-section, you birthday is currently scheduled for November 22!)... but we are SO thankful to the Lord for your life as you grow inside of Momma right now and we are praying FERVENTLY for you... same as we did for your precious, big sister... healthy baby, who chooses Jesus at an early age and never once doubts that Mom...

ALOOOOHA....

T hat's right friends - we are packing our bags and taking a little BABYMOON next month. BJ surprised me last week and had this little ditty all worked out... ...In fact I did work out all the details, only to rework them a week later after the final go-ahead from Karen. Her rationale was appreciated and wise, albeit not well recieved at first. I called her the fun-killer. Ironic I know... "I'm a fun girl!" her famous self proclamation. (this portion written by BJ) N ot going to lie - when BJ first told me about this trip I was a little stressed (it's the planner and realist in me)... I mean, our life is crazy - and obviously finances are about to go haywire when we get into our new house and bring baby home... but as a good reminder, I have been brought back down to earth in realizing that there will ALWAYS be an excuse, we have more freedom now then we probably will ever again and God has ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS been our Faithful provider... we have the funds, so i...

15 weeks...

So, I have become a blog stalker over this past year... it is just so easy to get onto trails from friend's blog lists until all of the sudden you are committed to reading a complete strangers musings daily. Creepy, I know. Regardless, one of my very favorite blogs that I started to follow actually did a spot on a family friend of mine (the blogger's sister-in-law) throughout her pregnancy... she took weekly pictures and both parents would write a letter / our thoughts to the baby / about the baby until she was born. I found myself crying every time I read what they would write and so anxious to see her weekly pictures... I am not going to be as fancy as what they did, but I do really love the idea of charting my body's changes, my emotional experience and prayers from beginning to birth... so go ahead and call me a copycat! 15 Weeks Whether it is noticeable to anyone else but me (I know BJ notices but he is nice and acts like I look the same), my body has changed so much ...
