Our Sweet Baby Girl <3

Thats right we found out that we are going to be having a GIRL!! Thalia Maree!

She moves a lot and if she is anything like her father and I, she is going to be a very active person. She is growing so fast. She is now 12 ounces and 10 inches long and she has 20 more weeks to grow :) she is already our little princess and we are so excited to say that she makes a wonderful addition to our family!!!

3 (what a great age =D )

Life has changed a lot in the past month. I recently went from working part time to full time and with that change came three year olds. I am now the 3's teacher at the Sunshine House! I love it. I now have my own classroom and get to write my own lessons plans!! Three year old children are so funny and literal. They sure bring a huge smile to my face everyday. Each morning we start off by saying as a class " we're going to have a great day!" and then we have a big group hug. I am so blessed to have these sweet children in my life and to get paid to do the one thing in life that I absolutley love.

ahhhhh LIFE!!

So life can be crazy sometimes....stressful as anything!!! I have really been stressing about being a good mom. Some might think I'm crazy for thinking that, but here is my reasoning. I have changed hundreds of diapers, feed lots of babies, even taught them how to crawl and walk....but these all have been children that dont come home with me. As a teacher in a daycare I teach the children all kinds of things, but I am going to have teach my child how to love, respect others, and to have faith in the Lord. That is a HUGE responsibilty. Its nuts to think about. So being that I am going to have to teach my child to have faith in the Lord I must have faith that he will never give me more then I can handle. I guess he thinks that I can handle raising a child.

So I am just about 16 weeks and that means 2 more weeks until we find out that what the baby is!!! I can't wait!!!

So lesson learned: have faith in the Lord because he kinda knows what he is doing!!!

*next chapter in life: Britani becomes a MOM!!!( so awesome!!)

Well I haven't blogged in a really long time....but a lot has changed since october. Since then I found out that I was pregnant. Wow am I excited. I can't wait to have a little one running around, that looks like me!! so crazy. It just seems like I have been watching and raising children for so long that I can't help but be nervous to raise my own child. Hopefully all of this training will pay off! I am now 13 weeks along and time sure does fly.

---So I have decided that I would much rather my child have more books to read then toys to play with. Today I went to Barnes & Noble to get a book for my history class, and they had a bunch of children books for 75% off....so I got a few. I got these books for $1.49 what a deal!!! I was so excited that I got to start my baby's library of books for a great price!!! : )

---Life has been crazy, but I love where I'm at. Now more then ever I know that FAMILY IS MOST IMPORTANT... and that the LORD KNOWS THE PLAN THAT WORKS BEST!! I am so greatful for family and friends that support our family....They are one of the main reasons why I get through life!!! Thanks for your love!!!

Halloween Party!!

Heather, Jac and I threw our first annual Halloween party and lets just say that all the planning and preparing paid off!! We had so much fun Saturday I don't even know where to begin.
Almost every body dressed up and that made it fun to see all the creative ideas.
