Ellee's Birthday Party at Lake Texoma








It was SO hot! Haha. We thought it would be nice to attend, we haven't been to any of their family events sense Easter. The boys had fun playing in the muddy water. The other four were at the other house for the weekend. 

 

Grandma's ABC Book for Watson




Grandma gives an ABC book to the grandkids going to kindergarten. It was so fun watching her read it to him.

Gunter Library Story Time






















The kids had fun at the Gunter Library story time. They bounced in a bouncy house, pet some animals and listened to a story with their cousins Levi Eve and Mathew. After we went to Lunch at Andreas Pizza. Then we went to moms to take a picture with her with the blanket she made baby Bella. I caught the tale end of Eli singing and rocking a baby doll.

31 Weeks


 I am a bit weary of my mood. I am getting down easy, so I have been having to work hard to not fall into depression because it is an easy slippery slope and I am afraid I won't be able to get out. I am concerned about that because when I get down, it has been hard for me to see any light and for anything to lift my mood. It seems to be a miracle from God that I have been able to get back up again each time so far. 

Geoffrey has accepted a new position at work. He is now a Program Director of Performance Improvement which will bring in a little more pay, not a lot, but some. He will also get a lot more experience that will help him take his career further. We are doing a trial run because he will have to travel Tuesday-Thursdays to corpus every week. We have prayed and thought this through a lot. We are hopeful it is a good decision for our family. I am hoping I will be okay emotionally. 

Baby Bella has the hiccups all the time. At least 3 times a day. She is awake regularly, and for a while in the evening. She moves my belly like crazy!

Geoffrey Enjoys the Shower Gifts

I love sharing this with him. It was so fun to go through them together and the mailed gifts as well. 
 

29 and 30 Weeks


 I am getting stronger little by little. Getting around the house more and more. It is amazing how long it is taking to get stronger, but also amazing that I am getting stronger just by trying to walk around the house once or twice a day. I have worked my way into making dinners and sitting at the dinner table again with everyone. I am thankful to be out of my room more. 

It was sad the kids had to go to the other house for two weeks. It was VERY hard on me. Then Geoffrey had to go on a business trip to Corpus for a few days. The week he left the first time, my mom came over to help me with laundry and keep me company. That did lift my spirits. The second time, I as doing better, but she came again and that really lifts me. 

Bella has grown so much, Geoffrey keeps commenting on how big my tummy has gotten this month.

Baby Bella and Baby Zoey Baby Shower!


































My mom and niece Dimani were so sweet to put on a baby girl shower for me and Rebekah. It was a bit dicey how I would feel, but I really enjoyed it! I was thankful a big crowd didn't show up. It was perfect. The decorations and food were divine! I am so appreciative! I was exhausted on my way home. From being social and just being up. I was standing a lot more than I wanted or planned. My mom took good care of me.
