Mother's Morning Out

All four of my children have been attending Mother's Morning Out two days a weeks for the last two weeks. It is a five week program that a church near by puts on. It has been very strange to drop them off and have four hours to myself. All of them have attended a similar program before, but it has been two years since I have had everyone in one at the same time.

The first day, I kind of wandered around aimlessly, taking care of a few errands and walking around the mall. The second day, I tried to organize my time a little better to get more done. I even went to the library by myself. It was very strange to browse for books by myself. I am used to the run in and grab strategy of choosing books.

Today, I came home and worked on cleaning house for about an hour and a half and then had lunch out as a reward! Bailey asked me this afternoon if it was fun to drop them off and have time by myself. I responded very truthfully that it is nice to have a little time away, but I am very glad to see them when I pick them up!

Seeing Blue!

I had my twenty week ultrasound, and our little one looked very healthy! It was such a blessing to see the heart, brain and spine looking so perfectly formed. It is amazing how God knits babies together in their mothers' wombs!

The children (especially Isaac) had been hoping for a baby boy, and it looks very much like they will get their wish! The ultrasound technician was able to get a good picture to confirm that we will have lots of blue around our house!

I am now a little over half way through this pregnancy. The time seems to be speeding by! We are all looking forward to meeting our little man!
