It's Beginning to Look alot like Christmas!

'Twas the end of the day, after a long day at school.
I had just gotten home and was feeling quite cool.
I laid down on my sofa ready for a nap,
When something disruppted my nap with a ZAP!
ZAP! PING! POP! CRACK!
Sam and I quickly got up to investigate out back.
When what to our wondering eyes should appear,
But marble and golf ball sized hail coming near!
We headed for the shelter of our home with care,
But took a few quick pictures on our way to share!

I Wonder...

I must admit that having our first baby has me pretty curious about what he or she will look like. Will our baby have my eyes and Shane's nose? Will it have blonde hair, or will it be bald? With so many questions, and so long to wait, I decided to find out early. Thanks to makemebabies.com I can now get a sneak peek of our little bundle of joy.

Here is our "adorable" little boy :-)

I guess he is going to have Shane's grandad's red hair! Aww, what an interesting looking kiddo. We can't forget our "beautiful" baby girl.




Well, it's only fitting that she should get my hair and lips....she is her mother's child...lol!

These babies are pretty cute, but I am definitely hoping they are much cuter in real life!

Welcome to Sunny Days!

I have finally joined the blogging community! I have always been interested in having a blog, but just figured that with it just being me, Shane, and Sam at home, how interesting could a blog really be....let me answer that for you....not very! Well, God has recently changed our uneventful life with amazing news that we are expecting our first baby November 6th! We could not be more thrilled, and want to give God all of the glory and praise He desereves for blessing us with this little life. God is the author of life, and we are so humbled that he has chosen to allow us to experience this amazing gift. I am reminded of James 1:17 that says "Every good, pleasing, and perfect gift is from God above". Thank you Lord for this incredible gift!



Here is our little peanut! We had our first ultrasound yesterday, and got to see our baby's precious little heart beat. Its heart rate was 128 beats per minute. It was the most beautiful moment, and a great reminder of how amazing God is! We are so excited to travel this journey, and look forward to many "sunny days" ahead!
