  •         IT'S A GIRL!!!! 

    I had my 27-wk ultrasound done 2 wks ago and they confirmed we are having a baby girl! (of course there is always that chance they could be wrong...but i couldnt help but buy a few pink things already) We are so excited, especially since neither Evan or I had any sisters. I decided to keep the name a secret so you will have to wait till Nov. 27 to find out her name...I've got a name that i really think is cute, but if another one comes along that fits better i might change my mind? Who knows!

    My pregnancy is just flying by!! Cant believe i only have 11 wks to go yet!!! I am so excited to finally get to see & hold this baby girl that keeps kicking me silly inside my belly. Im thankful everyday for the blessing of a healthy pregnancy so far!!

    Im still working full time so my days are never boring... feels like i never have time to work on the nursery...but hopefully it will be ready by the time our baby girl comes! I figure i should work while i still can...plus than when the baby comes i wont feel so guilty for taking her shopping for all those incredibly CUTE baby clothes out there!! lol!!

Somehow i just havent found time to squeeze xanga into my schedule anymore ...except of course checking others sites(call me lazy!!) Anywaz just wanted to say life is good!! God has blessed me w/ so much more than i deserve....an AWESOME husband, great friends, loving family, caring church family, fun job, etc. ......and the most amazing gift ever............................................................... OUR BABY!!!!!!!

    Ahhh.... I'm SO excited about this little miracle inside of me I cant believe we are going to be parents-sometimes the thought is just downright scary! We went to Barnes&Noble the other night to get a baby name book-so now we are having fun goin through the thousands of names to choose. I had my first  doctor's appointment on Thursday and she told me i'm due some time in November. It was so special cuz i actually got to hear my baby's heartbeat!! It seriously brought tears to my eyes- a baby is such a miracle from God!!!

    Have a gr8 week!! ~missy~

  •         Aighty...time to update my site and catch up on 'xanga news' We canceled our internet like a month ago so im sorry for not returning your comments or doing my duty of updating...oh well the positive side of no internet is we are saving money & i find i have alot more time in my day to get some actual work done--imagine that! lol

    Well i cant complain even though some days are more difficult than others...my new favorite motto  "Life is hard BUT God is GOOD!!!"   There's some more changes coming our way including moving in 3 weeks & im also changing jobs-im going back to waitressing! Cant wait- i really missed my job and all the waitresses @ Bird-in-Hand! i decided to fill you all in w/ some pix... Enjoy!

    We will soon have to kiss this lil house good-bye (tears). I really fell in love w/ this cute lil place ever since Evan & i decided to rent here when we got married...But its time to move on & Im really excited about the  house we bought in Akron!!! Cant wait to settle in, decorate it w/ my own style, do what ever changes we want since we wont have to ask our landlord first,   etc. We move May 12th. So yeah my free time is spent packing all our stuff. *sighs* Were it all came from- ill never know?!?

     A couple weeks ago we babysat my two adorable cousins on a Friday nite while their parents got some free time and spent the night w/out kids. We had so much fun w/ them... The oldest girl was the flower girl in our wedding:)

  • So we woke up to a winterwonderland this morning The snow on our trees in the backyard is just gorgeous! i love it....but i cant help but think how crazy it is! i mean just this week i was laying out (trying to get an early start on my tan-haha) weird weather. Im planning on going over to LAMS to watch Evan's basketball playoffs. But while im waiting for him to call me w/his game times...guess ill update my site.

    Life is going so fast...ahh! Next week we will be married for like 9 whole months! Wow..where did the time go? Time to celebrate a 1-year anniversary soon...hmm....where to go? We talked about going to Kenny Chesney's Summertime Flip-flop tour at Lincoln Financial field (Eagles stadium-wahoo:) and then spending the wknd in Philly. Country music, suntans, flipflops, hanging out w/ my awesome husband all wknd-sounds like a lovely vacation to me 

    In other news...we are looking to buy a house sometime soon. Our rent lease for this house is up in May and we dont wanna keep on renting too long. But buying a house seems like such a big decision...so many factors involved. We have been working w/ Kingsway Realty (Silla's work:) and so far we toured 2 houses. Its so much fun checking out houses and imaging which one will be our new house?!?!? exciting changes....

    Other changes in my life include my job...im still working for my dad and helping him out w/ the housework, bookwork for the farm, cooking, cleaning, etc. I love being able to help them out and hang out w/ my crazy brothers:) But at the same time im keeping my eyes open for jobs that i might be interested in...its so hard tho cuz everytime i think about leaving them and telling my dad im not going to be there anymore...it makes me cry...i feel like im leaving them down (again). Why does it have to be this complicated? I feel SO responsible for them.  i just hope and pray that God would help me to know when its time to move on & give me a peace about it!

    Please pray that i wouldnt let my emotions get the best of me...somedays i could just cry and cry. I miss her so bad & it sucks when i see that painful lonely look in my dad's eyes... i wanna make it all better but i cant!  God plz heal the pain....

    Im not sure what got into me lately? But i love Gary Allen's music (more than i used to)...

    well gotta go. Have yourself a lovely week y'all!
