Bits and Pieces

Mother's Day

It was great! My first Mother's Day that I didn't cry because I couldn't give my husband what he wanted so much, a child.
At church I got the mom-to-be award. Which was really sweet.
Then after church we drove 2 1/2 hours to meet my family for Mother's Day. (Halfway between.)
Bobby's family wasn't able to make it, but I did enjoy time with my family.
I hadn't seen my nephew since I found out that I was pregnant. So I think he was a little shocked! LOL!
My mother sent me a card , a onsie that said "Worth The Wait", socks for Braden, and socks for me! (I love socks!)
My brother always gives those jumper seat thingys that hang from doorways, for shower gifts. Which I think is very cool that he does that. However, they scare me and I really wanted this certain bouncy seat. So he surprised me and got me the bouncy seat that I wanted and the softest, prettiest blue blanket that says, "Thank Heaven for Little Boys.", and a pair of cute booties. Now my brother is a "manly man" and for him to do that touched me deeply.
Then my nephew gave us an "Alabama RollTide" outfit. It was so cute. Bobby had been looking for one, but you just don't find those in Vol Country! LOL!
It was a nice day!
Braden's Godparents, Kevin and Jacinda, bought him a stroller and some of the cutest clothes and itty bitty tennis shoes from a yardsale. They were so cute.
Several years ago we decided that if we had a child we wanted them to be its Godparents. We never knew we'd end up being their pastor.

We are moving in June, I think. So I bought paint for the baby's room. The place we are moving to they are going to paint the baby's room for us, so I want have to smell the fumes! How nice!
Now if we get moved at the convention in July, and the baby coming the first week of August, there's gonna be an Overseer with a very unhappy momma on his hands! LOL!

I think it will feel good to be able to arrange Braden's room and organize everything. (Yes, I am one of those.) I need some energy. The thoughts of moving wear me out!

We had awesome services Sunday. More on that later.

We all are blessed beyond measure. Just start looking around you!
