This was our first appointment and ultrasound picture :)
Today is 17 weeks and 5 days. It feels like yesterday when I took my two pregnancy tests and just about passed out! This baby will be such a blessing, not only to us but for us :) The more time passes, the more I do get excited. I can't remember if I announced it but Yes we are having a baby! November 19th. When Chris and I bought our house this last December, we decided we would try after a year of living in the new home. Well, I guess our plans are not God's, of course. Our other 'plan' was for Chris to be at least 30 and for me 25. I'll be 25 3 weeks after baby Big will be born. God has perfect timing in everything. November is a fabulous time for us to have a child, it's my down time (hopefully the shop will sell before) and his off season from mowing. So we'll have lots of family time. Summers and fall are always VERY busy around our home. God is so perfect in all things :)
Right now the coffee shop is for sale. It's bittersweet to me. We go through life thinking that our jobs/careers define our lives, yes in some ways they do, but not completely. I desire to have my children help define my life, not my career. But this Coffee shop has been such a blessing to me in so many ways. It's almost hard to let go. I pray the right person buys it and takes off with the shop. Have it be a blessing to them as it was for me. Lately, I have been having a hard time getting excited about the baby, only because of the coffee shop. It's a very big commitment to be a dedicated mommy, even bigger if you are running a business front full time!! I trust God's timing on this completely. We are to live by FAITH not sight.

It's hard to fathom...sold business, new baby, but I do know that once that all happens it will be as if it had always been. And you'll find yourself wondering, "what did we ever do before kids?". And life will really begin! :) How very blessed you are :)
