Why is it so hard?

We (Chris and I) go in rounds about baby names. He likes this and I like that. I don't like his and he doesn't like mine.

I want a strong meaning so I can pray that meaning over the child through out its life.

Abigail -(our first born)My father is joyful. I pray that she will bring joy to the Father through out her life.

Elizabeth - Pledged to God. I pray that she will live her life for Him.

Elijah - The Lord is my God. I pray that my son will proclaim this all his life.

Isaiah - The Lord helps me. I pray that he will always know that God is present and guiding him.

So the search is on. We need to find a name that we both like and has a good meaning.

Not one name but two. A boy name and a girl name, so that we are prepared for which one is needed.

Any suggestions?

Heartbeats

We heard the baby's heart beat for the first time yesterday. That little helicopter sound makes being pregnant so much more real for all of us.

Moab...again?

Am I so lucky to go back so soon?

Well, I am!

Memorial Day weekend we will be hitting the trails. Yahoo!

I invited my mom and there is a chance my step brother and his wife might come along. Our friends: Paco and son and Stan and Marlene will be joining us. It will be great!

#5

Neighbors know, the church knows, my mom and grandma knows, some of my friends know so I guess it's time to post it too.

baby #5 is on the way.

It's due date is Oct. 31.

I'm excited and a bit overwhelmed.

And WHY are ALL my little ones born in the fall? WHY is that?

I'll tell you why Chris is home way to much in the dead of winter.

I swear he needs a part time job in the winter.

I'm 14 weeks and feeling good. There for a while I was sick and tired but it has passed mostly. I'll keep posting.
