22 weeks and counting

Shannon this picture is for you...... :)

On Thursday, May 29, I turned 22 weeks pregnant. I am so excited. Everything is still going great with my pregnancy. I cannot believe that we only have 18 more weeks to go. Wow how time flies. As you can see from above, I am showing more and more every day. It seems as if my stomach has grown more over the past 2 weeks than it has the whole pregnancy....and yes i have been told "this is only the beginning"!!!! Perhaps we have a defensive lineman growing in there or a very voluptuous young woman....only time will tell. I just have a feeling Puffin is going to be a big baby!!

Scott and I have been working on the nursery some. We hope to get some things done this weekend so as soon as I can, I will post some pictures of it.

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

Happy Mothers Day

I got this poem on email the other day and I thought it was so sweet so I wanted to share it on my blog just in time for Mothers' Day. I hope that everyone has a very Happy Mothers Day...

A baby asked God,
“They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?”

God said,
“Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”

The child further inquired,
“But tell me, here in Heaven I don’t have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.”

God said,
“Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel’s love and be very happy.”

Again the child asked,
“And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?”

God said,
“Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.”

“And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?”

God said,
“Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”

“Who will protect me?”

God said,
“Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.”

“But I will be sad because I will not see you anymore.”

God said,
“Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you.”

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked,
“God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”

God said,
“You will simply call her, MOM
