today I married my best friend. These two years have gone by so fast and now I can't believe we have a little baby on the way too! We are so incredibly blessed with so much and just so blessed to have each other. I will be missing him a lot today, but I know we are making a decision that is best for our family this summer.
I know this fall that a lot will change, but I think we are so ready to be parents. And I know Bryce will be such a great dad. I love watching him with all of our nieces and nephews,
it just makes me so excited to see him with our little baby boy.
I'm so blessed to have Bryce in my life. Since I've met him, I've been happier than I ever have been in my life. He still gives me butterflies when I see him and yet I'm so comfortable around him. I can truly be myself with him. I can't imagine my life with anyone else.
Well, a lot happened this last week. Mainly because we got to go to Oregon to see Bryce's family. It was so much fun, and I wish we had taken pictures. But I might be able to snag some from someone else.
The trip went by really fast and it was so much fun. Lots of family time and they had a shower for us while we were there too! We got so much great stuff, it really was a blessing. Plus, it was great to be with Bryce so much. I slept better with him there than I had in awhile. And I'm excited because he gets a 3 day weekend this week so he can come visit. YAY!!!

Looking forward to: My second baby shower this weekend. :)
Lately my wonderful husband has brought up the financial burdens we are about to endure. It's frustrating, because I feel like he is saying the things I was worried about before we decided to get pregnant. But before, he would just say "It will be ok!" and things like that. And now that I'm pregnant and not working...and won't be working, I'm worried that he is bringing up these concerns as well. I'm sure we will be ok, but now I feel guilty for no longer contributing financially.
So what has this lead me to do? Rack my brain for things that I can do as a new mom to help bring in some money. I wish I was naturally more creative so I could sell something online, but alas...I'm not. The only thing that I thought I could be good at is graphic prints, because those are always the things I like to doodle and stuff. But like an fool I deleted the Photoshop that came automatically on my computer years ago. So I don't have the software, and I'm not about to spend that much since I don't know how to use it.
But really, I just need to trust in YHWH. He will provide for us, and I think this was part of His plan for us. He will help us through, we just need to trust in him. I just need to remind myself not to worry so much and to be patient and not anxious. And if there is something for me to do to help provide, He will reveal it to me. Well, that is all for my ramblings for now.
