God's Plans

Isn't it funny how we can have our own "plans" made, but then God intervenes and makes His plan happen! About 5 weeks ago we were once again reminded that God is in control and He has different plans than us. Some of you may be wondering what this "change in plans" was for us, while several others of you have already heard God's big plans for us. Well ready or not....just like us....God thinks we need a bigger family....yes, already! Denver is going to be a big brother some time the middle of May 2009! This will make the kids about 18 months apart. After reading everything you just read you know that this wasn't exactly our plan and you probably have guessed right...it's taken us a long time to absorb this information (as it has and/or will be for most people), BUT we couldn't be HAPPIER. There are lots of "details" that are overwhelming us, but the thought of Denver having a little playmate every day is exciting. We are also excited and curious about how the 3 cousins (my sister's little boy that should be here in a little over a month!) will get along and what they will scheme up! During this time we ask you to pray for us and God's guidance upon us. May God keep His hand upon us and our little miracle on the way; and make this baby grow strong and healthy. Also, to keep us all healthy, as Mommy has been extremely tired (attemping to feed 3....I've been given the okay to keep on nursing through my first trimester, but we've been working on cutting back for my sake and for Denver's as he has enough change coming in the next 7 months) and not feeling the best which in turn has created more work for Daddy (as if he doesn't work hard enough!) and Denver who I think some times wonders "Why doesn't Mom play with me as much as she used too? And why does Daddy run around and do so much, that he doesn't have as much time to play with me either?".

Daddy was so excited about sharing the news he did some photo-shopping and sent this out to his co-workers (and just waited at his desk for responses from people) and some friends.

See our new little miracle's ticker at the bottom of our blog (it was too big to go on the side by Denver's and our anniverary one and I couldn't make it any smaller so that's where it had to go). It will keep you updated on how old this little baby is and about how many days we have to wait until to we get to meet this new, special addition to our family!
