Teaching them God's Word!

I popped over to a blog today written by a lady that I know from another site. She was writing about how she teaches her children out of the Bible daily and just gave an encouraging word to other mothers to take time out of the day to teach your children God's Word. That's something I've been lacking. I teach Abby memory verses and tell her about God often and pray together often, but rarely do I pull out the Bible and actually read it to her. So I stand challenged and rebuked for not doing it, and I'm glad that I stopped by that blog. So I immediately pulled out my Bible and read a little of the story of Hannah to Abby and she loved it. She is now sitting with her little Bible asking why Hannah was sad and telling me that Hannah prayed to God and God gave her a baby. Too cute! So this is the start of me getting my priorities right.

Movement!!

I have been feeling lots of movement from the baby lately!!! Woohoo!! I felt lots of movement throughout the day yesterday, and I've been feeling it this morning. I love this stage of pregnancy. I love feeling the kicks and movement and knowing there is a little baby being created in there! Amazing! My big U/S is in a week and a half and I can't wait to see baby again.

Abby has now changed her mind and wants a boy. A friend of mine popped around the other day with her newborn baby boy and Abby was so taken with him. She sat and looked at him nearly the whole time. And now she tells me she wants a baby boy. I know she is going to be excited whether it's a boy or girl. She's gonna be mommys big helper. I can't wait to hold a newborn again, breastfeed a newborn, and babywear a newborn. I love newborns:)
