We had the "BIG SCAN" yesterday and everything went wonderful! Our son is happy and healthy and I am so thankful and grateful. They saw no markers for Downs (Which has been a concern because of my age.) and his spine was perfect. It wouldn't change our love for him, but I have been concerned about our age and how well he would be took care of if something happened to us.
God has been good to us in so many ways! We had the best ultrasound tech. Of course they said the only way to know for sure everything is okay was to have an amnio, but it is too risky and well it wouldn't change anything. God has the answer and that's all that matters. When I was having so many complications I just got to the place where I said, "Lord, you are the only one who has control and can take care of my child, I trust you." Things have been better since. Praise the Lord!
He is beautiful. The tech laughed and said that he was ornery because he was face down and wouldn't turn around so she could easily check his organs and about the time she would get a fix on him he would start moving. LOL! I said , "Yep! He's his daddy's son!" LOL! I saw his heart, bladder, kidneys, his feet and all ten toes, his itty bitty hands with all ten precious fingers, eyes (Which still looks a little scarey.LOL!), and on and on. Oh, his nose too!
Bobby was funny the whole time. We were all laughing and imagining him when he gets here. I told the tech that when he is old enough I will bring him back to apologize for being ornery! LOL!
My NP was pleased with my sugars and I am beginning to feel healthier. Because of the diabetes the baby will be coming two weeks earlier than planned. He should be here the first week in August. Guess when our lease is up? The last week in July! LOL! I think God is providing a way so that things won't be that rushed.
Our big decisions ,,, the kid still doesn't have a name,,, now that he is coming earlier I am thinking I might take him to the assembly, it would be cool for him to meet Tammy's baby (And all the other babies!) since they are going to be born so close together! (I think that is so neat!)I was counting women in The Church of God who are or have been expecting in 2009 and so far with what I know, I have come up with 11. There's gonna be a lot of strollers and diaper changing at the assembly! LOL! Can't you see the line in the restroom for the one diaper changing station there usually always is?
In other news, Bro. Sutton's uncle passed away yesterday so we are leaving for Alabama today. The funeral will be Sunday, but we will miss it to be in services at Antioch Sunday. This will be the first time Bobby and I have seen our families since we found out that we were having a baby.
It is weird for people who have known me for a while to see me pregnant for the first time. They kind of go into shock! LOL! (Hey, I still can't believe it!)
Pray for us as we travel! I love you all, okay most of you all! LOL! (I jokes!)

What an exciting time for you guys! It's such a blessing to read your updates. Keep them coming! It will be awesome to get to meet all the new additions at the Assembly! (Speaking of which - I suppose I'd better reserve my place in the restroom line early! ha!)
I am SOOOO excited!!! You have to to bring him to the Assembly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I look foward to seeing God, in this childs precious little life.
You know there is alot of women due this year, but many of them are due during the assembly or after, there may actually be only a few strollers AT the assembly. Mine and yours will be two of them. :o) I am glad you have decided to go to the assembly. It will be fun to meet your little one.
I thought you guys had a name picked out?
I am sorry about your husband's uncle. I pray you have a safe trip.
Sorry to hear about Bro. Bobby's uncle. We'll be praying for your comfort and safe journey.
I'm so excited to meet your little one and really happy that you are feeling healthy again.
Thanks Shanna and Jessa!
I am getting excited about bringing him to the Assembly. Quirky me, I am thinking about taking him through the healing line as sort of a victory march considering the years of going through that line praying for a child! God does answer prayers!
Tammy -- Hmm.. I was checking my list, yes I have a list. LOL!
So far on my list, if all goes well and all the mothers bring their babies, there should be at least seven new babies at the assembly. I would love to get at a picture of all of us together. Is that crazy?LOL!
We did officially settle on an name this weekend. Post to follow.
Thanks for your prayers. We had a good trip considering and the Lord blessed me with very little fatigue.
Tammi -- Thank you for your prayers! Look forward to seeing you.
Oh, Tammy, I got to thinking, that is at least seven not counting any multiple births!LOL!;0)
Bro. Bobby, I think going through the prayer line in victory is a great idea!! I think that's why it's so cool that your your going to bring him to the Assembly. What a blessing and tesimony to others he will be.
Sis. Net, eveytime I see your blog I think it would be cute to have a monkey room nursery!!! =)
PTL. I agree a Victory march through the prayer line is an absolute must. Love you guys.
Being only about a month old, this will be the easiest time to take him. Nursing is easy, no warming bottles, just get a nursing cover like Rebekah always uses. He will still do a lot of sleeping and NO crawling or moving around. This would be perfect timing. The rest of your life will be more of a challenge. Ha Ha!
Boy, make me want to go to the Assembly.
Love ya.
Sorry! Somehow I signed in under Bobby's name! LOL!
Sis. Connie -- I am still thinking about it!
I agree about a victory march. And perhaps it will cause everyone else at the Assembly to shout and invoke a powerful move of the Holy Ghost! You never know! :o)
Reading your posts helps gives me peace about my own baby! I know God will take care of us. Thank you!
