Our Baby!

We are so excited to be having a little girl. We have already got our crib and bedding. My grandma found the crib for $10 at a thrift store, and my mom was so kind to get us this cute ladybug bed spread. We are so anxious to have her in the home. Brennon was telling me today that the room feels so empty without the baby in there. I am 32 weeks along. Only 8 more weeks! My belly gets bigger everyday!
We can't believe how hard it is to pick out a name! Hopefully we can pick one our before she comes. For now we have been just calling her baby. My mom calls her baby Bailey. We are not for sure if that will be her name it was just one name that both me and Brennon could agree on.

Only 3 more weeks!

Student teaching has been a personal challege for me. I am both physically and emotionally worn out. Brennon is so sweet! He made a deal with me that I get a prize every week that I make it to the end. This week Brennon took me to Subway. My all time favorite place to eat. Next week I get to get my hair cut, and the week after I think will be a surprise. I will be so happy to finally be done! Some days I just don't think I can do it. When I was at church a speaker read a quote by Mother Teresa:

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

I told Brennon that I was going to read this every day to help me make it through the next 3 weeks. :)

The Islands

We went to the Islands to be with family and enjoy the yummy burgers. It was great to see and talk with the family.
Everyone is waiting to be sitted. You can see my belly poking out. Rusty always asks why my stomache is so big. I tell him I swallowed a watermelon. :)
My mom is telling a story about her week of observations in the classroom. I am so happy that she is going back to school to get her degree. Only 1 more year mom!
Everyone deciding what they wanted to order. I order the mushroom hamburger. Yum!
Brennon and I got a picture together finally! He is so cute.
