Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

WOW!!! It has been a very busy break. So busy, I hope I feel relaxed Monday morning. I have really enjoyed my break though. But I feel that there is way to much to be done. We had a doctors appointment right before Christmas break and we were able to hear the babies heartbeat and Mark got to see the baby movie for the first time. Yesterday the baby celebrated his half birthday with Grandpa Gooch and cousin Ashley. I felt some pushing on my tummy this morning in two different spots this morning at two different times. I am not sure, but I think the baby was saying "Good morning, mommy." The baby received so many wonderful Christmas gifts from family and friends. Thank you so much for all the friends and family that have already blessed us. Mark has been working hard to help me begin to prepare the house for our transition. We changed around the family room and took out two big bookshelves out of the babies room. He is almost done the huge tiling project in the kitchen. We would both like for the grouting, sealing, and painting to be done in the kitchen before Mark leaves on his next project. (By the way hun, the kitchen looks beautiful, and I don't want you to leave, but I understand why you are leaving, and I am so PROUD of you! Thank you for all your effort to glorify God in everything that you do! You are a fantastic Pilot!) On Wednesday we find out what the baby is. After we know I think I want to paint the babies room like a meadow. If it is a girl I want to accent the room with sparrows and for a boys room use lambs. We will let everyone know the outcome of Wednesday. I hope that everyone had a fantastic Christmas, remembering why we truly celebrate Christmas. Have a fantastic 2010!
