Latest Pregnancy Symptoms

   I am 8 months today!  Funny as it seems the past 2 weeks have come with it's fair share of..... Let's see here, HEADACHES. I think I'm misbehaving, AND I DON'T LIKE IT!!!
   At 32 weeks, my symptoms are mood swings, hot flashes, urinating like mad, lack of sleep (due to being uncomfortable), lower back aches, swelling of what sometimes are to be known as cankles, and lastly this large amount of energy that comes and goes.
                                         "This too shall pass (1Corinthinas 10:12)".
 Okay so you would think that with me becoming so energetic at times I would not get cranky. Boy have I been fooling myself. This is the first time in 4 pregnancies that I have endured such feelings.   
   Did I mention, I'm emotional as well? About EVERYTHING! Oh and I'm also having some Braxton Hicks now. Yep, while I walk, sit, eat, think, sleep, rest, and well did I miss anything? I feel like my mother did when she went through her "change of life". At least I think I know how she felt.
  Despite my raging hormones, there are those perks. I get to deck out the room with baby stuff again. I have the opportunity to reminisce on what my other 3 children were like when they came into this world. Their innocent angelic faces, their bare behinds, and their thick chunky legs, which I could have taken a bit out of! Their cries of knowing instantly that someone will be able to care for them. Being trustworthy of a person they just met seconds ago. Me knowing and enjoying one of the greatest gifts the Lord has lent me.
  As I write this, I'm feeling the little man kick. He seems to be taking a liking to kicking me in bladder by the way. You know he worships with us. In service when praise and worship starts, he does too. Sometimes I sit there in hopes that our worship leader will go just a little longer, so I feel him move just a little more. He's spirit filled and he isn't here yet! I absolutely love feeling him move inside me! He will grow strong in spirit! Praise God, Praise God, Praise God!!!
                                                                   (Psalm 22:10)
             " From birth I was cast upon you; from my mother's womb you have been my God."


 My motherly instincts tell me he'll be here sooner then we would like. I keep praying he'll stay in there till he's 36 weeks baked. I doubt he'll be born in the next couple of weeks but after that I'm not sure. I know my due date is were it should be and if anything, give or take a day.
  Do me a favor would you? Pray for me. I think I need it. I don't like that I fall asleep and wake up so cranky, even though I am good at hiding it from people other then my family. I guess perhaps I should make sure others are around so I don't cranky. Poor solution I know, but it might work.
              " For You have formed my inward parts; You have covered me in my mother’s womb.                                       (Psalms 139:13)."

You're kidding me! 9 weeks already!!!

Yes sir/ma’am, we only have nine weeks left come tomorrow! I constantly feel this man move around and I love it! Each of the three other times I’ve been pregnant this was and is my favorite part.

A couple of the ladies of our church are throwing me a baby shower. Some may not get an invite because they don’t know you. So let me personally invite you. It’s going to be March 12th at Milton 1st Assembly of God Church @ 11am.  You can RSVP at 850-623-2854. I’ve been asked quite frequently where I’m registered at. To answer your question I’m registered at Target, JCPenny’s, and any yard sale that has baby boy stuff! I love me some second hand in good condition! Please join us for a mid morning day of fun.

Guess what I’m doing this week? I’m getting the entire house baby ready. I’m going to make sure there is nothing big that I’ll need. When you come into my home you will begin to think David is here already. Crazy as it seems; I can wait till he gets here. I am enjoying all the little movements.  No need to rush what the Lord has given me. I said that twice..lol.

Our youth are sparking a fire! I see it in my Sunday school class. Move over people because they are about to overfilled with the Holy Spirit! There is no more waiting on others to move; they are just going to get up and do it! I love to see our children on fire for God. It brings tears to my eyes every time.

Hey locals! I have something for you. Click

Hey locals! I have something for you. Click http://www.angelfoodministries.com/ your location will be here in town. If you don’t feel you need it, please, PLEASE bless someone who does. We all know someone who could even just one box. They even have it so you can give to a local military family. I highly recommend that you give it a shot. You may even find coupons for a bigger savings! If you like let them know I referred you.

I have so much I want to talk about but I am going to wait. I have a 4 year old student to teach. God bless you all!
