I'm an Aunt again....

Jason's sister Rebecca had a wonderful baby boy, Brayden, on Saturday, Feb. 16th at 9:42pm. He weighed 7 lbs. 6 oz and was 21 inches long. We were at the hospital when he was born so we got to see him when he was just minutes old. Both Brayden and Bec are doing well. They had moments of fear when Rebecca had a fever of 104*F, then Brayden's umbilical cord was torn and he had pooped in the womb. But the doctor was smart and they got Brayeden out, pumped his stomach and a specialist checked him out, and he was fine. We keep thanking God that Rebecca's assigned Dr. was not the one on call that night, as he seemed incompetent during the pregnancy. So, PTL, both Bec and Brayden are strong, safe and healthy!


When I upload the pics from our camera, I'll post them.

Me and changes


Oh FYI, I got a new haircut, much to my husbands dismay. I was tired of the long locks so I cut it off. Jason still doesn't like it and honestly, I don't know if I like it myself, but thanks goodness, it grows fast! I just had Jason take a pic so here it is.

So much happening.....

I am so sorry for not putting info on here earlier. Life is getting away from me.

My contract with N Touch Therapeutic Massage is done the end of this month. I was renting a room from them and things weren't going as well as we had hoped. Lots of miscommunication. I realized that what I really need right now is to be working FOR someone, not on my own. God worked it out that I will be working at a chiropractors office full time and will be helping them with a program that consists of an adjustment, massage, and exercises. My first day is Tuesday, March 4th! I am both excited and a little nervous! I see a lot of potential for growth there. I guess we'll see how it goes once I start.

Jason and I also have been looking to buy a house. He gets out of the military in January of 2009 and we want to stay around for a while, maybe 3-5 years or so. Definitely not long term, but we really love our church and we like the area, so we figure this is a good place to start. Jason has a few job leads here, which is encouraging. We've looked at probably 30 or more houses and have narrowed it down to a few, so it is becoming more of a reality......ahhhhhh!

There is a lot on our plate right now, so if you think of it, please pray for wisdom on our part. We really want to be in the center of God's will, but there are times when I get anxious and have a tendency to push forward before it is time. My good friend Charletta, very lovingly reminded me not to plan and push my life but let God do what He wants when He wants. Jason and I have really been praying for wisdom and discernment and we've heard a voice behind us saying turn to the left or the right, we just have to be careful to not run ahead. It is harder at times then I'd like to admit, but I'm trying. God's grace is good.

As things progress I will do my best to update the blog, but if your reading this then you know me and know the likelihood of that...LOL
