I'm sick in tired of being tired.
I have wanted to quit my job at least 4 times this week.
Why does Townes always have to have the same thing as Finch?
Why can't I sleep good anymore?
I hate peeing a million times a night.
I really don't like being pregnant...maybe when baby starts kicking around I'll like it better. Right now it's just aches, pains, bloating and sickness.
I'm a little depressed that my husband isn't home again this weekend.
I just need to complain today.
I'm hungry all the time but when I eat I feel sick
Ok, happy thoughts :) I love to watch the kids dance
Finch can count to 5
Townes is getting so big, we have the funniest conversations.
Townes rubs my back and always ask if I'm feeling better yet? :)
Finch has the funniest laugh it makes us all laugh out loud.
I would love to go to an island for 6 months and let the kids play in the sand all day.
I'm really NOT looking forward to winter...really.
I have a list of To-do's that keeps growing.
A friend brought us 2 casseroles..God bless her!
I'm bored.
I need to spend some good time in the Word.
wow, sorry you had to read this. :)

Our life
First off...HI! It's been too long and way to much has happened. I just can't seem to be able to stop. think. write. So I'm going to make a list of the things that have/are/and might happen.
1. We are having another BABY!! Yeah, for babies. We are very excited and so far I'm feeling great! Praise the Lord hope it lasts!! I'm due April 24th..ish...
2. Townes is way excited for another baby! He keeps waiting for baby to kick him..so I make my belly move around and he is utterly amazed and shouts "The baby kicked me"! He doesn't need to know it's me :)
3. A very special person passed away on Saturday. Danny's Grandpa Hyde. Townes 'Hyde' is named after him, he was an amazing, loving man. He is with Jesus and as healthy as ever in Heaven and we rejoice with that. Though we do have moments of great sadness..like tonight..as Townes prayed " Jesus, please help Great Grandpa Hyde get better so we won't be sad". The tears ran down our faces as we had to again explain where he was.
4. We are putting our house on the market, ASAP.
5. Danny's been doing a lot of photography lately.
6. I'm getting Doula certified next weekend, I'm very excited. I've gotten to share the precious moment of births with several mothers and want to make it official.
7. We are planning on moving to OMAHA, NE.
8. I'm very excited about all the opportunities in Omaha but I'm so sad to be leaving my family, my dear friends and even my sweet little house.
9. I got super sad today when Townes said " I love Townes' house, I no want to move"!
10. Had an ugly.ugly cry the other night...hormones..but my sweet husband just listened. Wow, it really helped.
11. Moving, pregnancy, looking for maternity care, loosing Grandpa, selling our house, going through all our junk, $$ all made me do #10
12. Really feels the need to love my little brother more.
13. Misses being a part of our nephews/nieces lives :(
14. Is ok with not being able to do it ALL!
15. So thankful for God's mercies every morning.
16. Is having a difficult time with making dinner lately..I'm bored with our foods.
17. Loves my husband more than I ever thought I could, and hope to love him even more as we grow old together.
18. Misses my children when they aren't with me or they are asleep :)
19. Has got to get a handle of my basement..junk everywhere.
20. Loves that the weather is almost chilly outside.
21. Needs to take more photos of my kids.
22. I decided to not read blogs that make me feel like less of a wife and mom.
23. Found a midwife in Des Moines that will come to Ames to deliver baby
24. Well, we might not be in Ames when baby is born soooo baby will be born at Grandma and Grandpa's house if we move out of state... Ha, My Dad doesn't know what to think of that

Thursday...
I have so much to blog about but I just can' t seem to get my thoughts together to update my blog! If I knew people really read this bad boy i'd update it more often but there's only someone here or there that reads it so...for those of you..we are still alive and busy!
I've been working on my photoshop abilities lately so that I can help out on that end of the business. It's been so great to work with Danny as he's doing something he totally loves. We are ironing out all the little details and he's really taken charge at making this happen. I'm so proud of him. I really pray that one day soon he'll be able to dedicate all his time to doing what he loves.
We had an AMAZING time on our photo tour! God was so good to us, we stayed out for 3 weeks, 7 states, 7000 miles, and many.many.drive ups. It was fantastic. We can't wait to hit the road again! Danny's style seems to be very different then many we see, we really want to "sell" his style not just the photo gig itself. B/c so many people have cameras these days and feel like doing it themselves is the "same". So we are finding our niche!
Like I said I'm new to photoshop but it's been a lot of fun and hard to get my mind to remember things(kids)!
I helped a friend out and did this one for her daughter's 1st birthday. What do you think?

Wednesday
This week seems to be a week of change at our house...
Townes is using full sentences all the time, which is super fun but makes me sad at the same time. He's really growing up. He negotiates with us about things, wow, didn't think that time would come so soon. Plus, sometimes he makes a good point! :)
Finch decided it was finally time to start walking. So since Monday she's started walking everywhere, picking toys up while she walked by them, walking faster...well, almost running. I'm still a little shocked when I'm in the other room and she comes walking in. So cute! I just love seeing how proud she is of herself.
On to other things going on..
My dream job (other than the one I have) would be to a personal shopper and clothing consultant!! Ah, I really am thinking about doing it on the side. Do you think I could drum up some business??!?!?
We decided that at the end of the month we will be taking a HUGE road trip..yes, across half of the US to California. We are excited to get in our AWESOME van and see our beautiful country!
Speaking of VAN....I love it! We are so excited about it, whenever I need to go somewhere, it's so much easier, it's so nice, it's fun. Ah, we are so thankful for God providing it!!
Our Church is having a donation garage sale on Friday in Burgies parking lot from 10-5pm. It's to raise money for a local needy family! Please come by, or come donate some stuff we are taking it from 8a-10a on Friday at Burgies in front of Lowes.
Hope you are having a great day!

Nothing but the blood of JESUS
What can wash away my sin?
What can make me whole again?
For my cleansing this I see--
For my pardon this my plea--
Nothing can my sin erase
Naught of works, 'tis all of grace--
This is all my hope and peace--
This is all my righteousness--
Oh! precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Thank you, Lord for saving me. Thank you, Lord for setting me free. You have truly made me white as snow and no sins do I hold. You are my one strong KING, Thank you, Lord for purchasing me.
Townes tells the story perfectly. Tonight as we laid in his bed, he retold the story of what Easter was. " Mama, Jejus died on cross ..stone rolled away and empty"!! With excitement is his precious little voice he goes on to tell me.." Jejus(jesus :)) died for sins, He's ALIVE, the bad mans not kill him". Oh sweet angel, you are so right, he is ALIVE. He went on to tell me that he wanted Jejus to die again so that we could have the Easter story after Easter (this makes me smile) because I can see his little heart and what he really means to say. He has shown such a great love for Jesus and he wants to know more all the time, he just doesn't want the story to be over. With tears in my eyes I answered him, " Honey, Easter is never over, we should make the story of Easter our favorite story the one we remember to read everynight." He grinned from ear to ear, " that a good dea (idea) mama!" Oh how beautiful the heart of a child.
