Bible Verse of the Week

Lamentations 3:22-24 (ESV)

22 The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
23 they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
24 “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,
“therefore I will hope in him.”

My latest project…

I wish I would have taken a “before” shot of these frames.  They were black and DIRTY – you could hardly see through the glass.  They came in a box from my Grandma and Grandpa Welty’s old basement with a few others.  Who knows how old they are.  I am still working on the middle frame that goes between these.

Also, I decided to do a test cut on the silhouette before I cut the fabric above, so I thought I would decorate a onesie!  Cut it out, iron it on.  Even I can do that.  3-6 month stuff seems SO small.

Summer goals.

At the beginning of the summer BJ and I decided we wanted to push for three changes with Bailey over the summer. 

1. Potty training went great and is still going well.  I can’t remember the last time she had an accident. 

2. Then we gave up the pacifier (she was just using it during sleep).  We told her the new babies at the hospital needed them and then we shipped them off. 

3. Lastly, we moved out the crib and moved in the big girl bed!  Here is Bailey in her “new” big girl bedroom!

The Final Days.

Well summer is officially over.  I went back to school today.  Here is how Bailey spent our final days!

1. Made and danced in a tu-tu!

2. Made cupcakes AND blew out the candles.

(No, it is not Bailey’s birthday. After we celebrated another friend’s birthday she thought she should have candles in her cupcake too.  We even had to sing!  Hey, why not?!)

3. Went tubin’ ALL BY MYSELF

4. And played in the sprinkler!

It’s a BOY!!

We had our big ultrasound Wednesday and we learned our next baby will be a boy.  Let the shopping begin=)  I am sure this little boy will be very comfortable in his manhood after sleeping in pink jammies and using purple burp cloths!  Hey, we are cheap!

They said everything looked good and that he is BIG already.  They kept my due date as Christmas, but based on his size said he is more likely around December 17th.  I guess we will have to wait and see!

Here are a couple of the ultrasound photos that I took a picture of and uploaded.

These next two gross me out.  But that is what he is looking like.
