IT''S A BOY!!

Yes the blue means something! We are going to have baby boy #6! I was having a hard time getting my blog to cooperate yesterday, and I wanted to call my Mom and Dad and tell them first! So everyone here is taking it well! I thought I would have a hard time but I really think God has given me peace! I just giggled for about two hours after Eric did the scan! 6BOYS! Boy am I out numbered! Eric was upset though. I know we ALL really wanted to have a girl, but Eric feels bad for not being able to provide me what my heart desires. I just try to reassure him if God wanted us to have a girl he will give her to us when the time is right! I wish I knew God's plan! Is he telling us we are not done, keep trying and you will have your girl? Or is adoption something to look at? I just cannot see NOT having a sweet little girl, not just for myself but for Eric to experience "Daddy's Little Angel", and for the boys to have a sister to love and protect. Alot of prayers are going out to have his path clear to us. The boys all took it differently. Little Eric I think was relieved. He was afraid he was going to have to share a room with one of his brothers if it was a girl! Joshua we thought would take it the hardest. But he was so sweet to turn to me and make sure I was o.k.!! Bryce cried for about five minutes, and all he could say was I really wanted a baby sister :( Logan and Ty were totally fine! Which was a surprise to us seeings it was Logan who had been praying for that baby girler for so long. He did say that maybe then next time if we pray for a baby boy we will get a baby girler! So we will see. Until then it is BLUE! Now the official ultrasound is not for another three weeks. We continue to pray that baby is healthy and there are no problems! If anyone has some boys names send them our way! We are keeping the traditional A middle names. We belive we are going with Austin. So anything that sounds good with that. Oh and not to make it harder, we are trying not to repeat initials. So anything other that, EAD, JAD, BAD, LAD, TAD! Thank You all though for all those pink prayers! I now he has heard them all and knows our hearts desires. I just believe he is saying, NOT YET!!!!

I'm Back!

O.k., I know it has been months! Now I have ALOT of catching up to do on my blog plus reading everyone else's! My back has been doing so much better, and I am physically and mentally over the first trimester blah's. Now I am ready to get everything back to normal It may have been the wonderful trip I just came back from scrapbbooking with some good friends for 4 days! I got a lot of pages done! But I am still a good 16 years behind :( I dont have time right now to post any pictures. But I did want to say I am going in again tonight to have Eric do an ultrasound! Last week I went in but the cord kept getting in the way, or the baby was holding his/her hands over the area of which we wanted to see! So hopefully tonight we can see more! I will post in the morning hopefully was some bit of news!

The Love of my life!

I just wanted to write to say Eric, I Love You! You have been there by my side to rub my back, get me my medicine, run me to the E.R. in the middle of the night, calm my nerves, listen to my ranting, make all the meals, do the laundry, play with the kids, take extra steps for me to get seen by the doctor, and still work. I am so grateful God gave me you! You are awesome Sweetheart! THANK YOU!

Update

Well here I am literally laying over the dining room table with the laptop trying to stay mentally busy(it is actually a somewhat of a comfortable position)! My sciatica has only gotten a little better since I have been on the medicine. I woke up at 7:00a.m. this morning and was not ready to get out of bed but needed to stretch and walk around. It is now only 9:30 and I am ready to go back to bed! On top of that I have a little nausia going on! I think my craving for a Dunkin Donut will help with that!! There is a new one that just opened up a little down the street! I have not had a donut since last October!! Well that will have to wait for another time, I am still unable to drive because of the medicine :( I saw the doctor yesterday and she gave me my referrel to the Physical Therapist! I hope to be seen by the end of the week!!! Well I need to change postitions so I will end here and hopefully be back to write more later! I also have some work to do for church!

p.s. the time on my posting will be off, it is still set for Iraq!

Sorry for no new posts these last couple of days. It is actually taking everything I have to stay seated at the computer. My sciatica is acting up so bad, there is not a point during the day I do not have any pain. I finally could not take it any longer so I went up to the E.R. last night. They gave a pain reliever that knocks me out, but is not suppose to harm the baby. It really does not help with the over all pain. It does relax me enough to get some cat naps in during the day, and sleep better at night. I go back Monday for a follow-up and to get a referral to Physical Therapy. I am also thinking about going to a Chiropractor. Well I have some new pictures to post, hopefully in a little bit I can sit here at post them! Right now the medicine is kicking in and I am heading to la-la land!

O.k., everyone it is time to start thinking Pink!!!!!!!

Another Freebie!

Here are some of the boys enjoying another treat! McDonald's had a special today if you buy a drink, you get their new chicken sandwich free! So after the library on the way home I surprised them to dinner! Now we are off to the pool to work it off!
