Our Growing Family


Pregnancy Tickers


I hope this blogs find all of you ready for the celebration of the birth of our Christ!! I know I'm not finished with all my shopping but I'm ready to celebrate the most important birthday ever!! One, even more important, than the birth of my own child. If that offends you in any way your priorities are out of order.

We went to the doctor Friday for our 4th prenatal visit. The worse part of the whole trip was the waiting room and then waiting in the room for the midwife. I hate waiting period. I'm glad Hubby was there with me because that helps pass the time by. I told him the worse part of my yearly female visit was the waiting in the room with those little pieces of paper they give you to cover up with. I don't know about the rest of you, but by the time my doc comes in my little papers are normally ripped up. I have a problem being still.

Being still brings me to my next point...Baby Hutson doesn't know how to be either so s(he) are taking after their mama!! The midwife asked me if I've been feeling movement and I was like, "Oh yeah!" I can't feel them moving from the outside yet, but I can tell where they are laying because my stomach gets really hard in certain spots.

Becoming a mommie is awesome I must add!! I sit and think about this little one and my eyes just tear up. God is amazing and I can't say that enough. Hubby and I are so blessed to be given this opportunity and I can't thank our Creator enough!

The heartbeat was strong...staying in the 140s. Don't try to guess the sex by this because I hear its not very accurate. The old wivestales are fun to hear but we are looking forward to January 6th, when we will hopefully see the little cheeseburger or hotdog. Hilarious, I know!

I'm going to wait to post the sex when we find out b/c we want our boys in Illinois to know personally from us. Can't have them hearing it from the "grapevine"!! Joseph, the oldest wants a baby sister. Jacob had said he wanted a little brother, but the last I talked to him he said sister. When it comes to Tiny and Cocoa (my canine kids) they would prefer a sister. lol. They said dressing them up and pushing them in the stroller sounds waaaay more appealing than getting a firecracker tied to their tails and lit. Yeah, that didn't say that, cause as most of you know, dogs can't talk but I know that is what they are thinking.

There is no doubt in my mind that our Baby Hutson is going to be cowgirl/cowboy. Our pony herd of two has grown to eight. When the boys get here next summer they are going to have a blast out there with them too. We are going to make those two Yankee boys cowboys too!!

Well, let me wrap it up. I've got to go study my Sunday School lesson. I hope you and yours have a wonderful Holiday Season. Please remember the whole purpose of Christmas...Christ!

God Bless!
