Today's Coffee: I've stopped drinking it because....

I'm pregnant!

Yes, Russell Baby #2 is expected to make his/her appearance in early December. 
So, I've stopped drinking coffee because I honestly cannot stand the smell or taste right now. 
It's been a tough 9 weeks thus far, but we wanted to announce it so that more people can enjoy this time as well as pray with and for us. 
It's been a very long day as we spent several hours at the doctors and then we taught lessons and tonight is our students' recital. I'm incredibly tired as I didn't sleep well last night (or any night for the past 5 weeks). It's going to be a loooong summer. Also, we close on our house on May 30. 

Breathe in. Breathe out. 

Everything is in the Lord's hands and I've learned more today about trusting Him than in the past month. 
Here's our little baby - -

It's a little hard to tell, but that is one CUTE baby!

Wilson got to hang out with super friends and a bounce house while T and I were at the doc's.
He loved it.

In Christ,
Julie

Today's Coffee: Still not feelin' it...

A short n' sweet blog post. 

The plants are growing really well. I'm so excited about eating out of the garden this summer!

So, you've probably seen (if you are pinterest) that pin about growing lemon trees, because their leaves smell good? Well, I used a lemon for something and decided to try that. Uhm.... hard to do. Out of all the lemon seeds I planted (about 5 weeks ago!) only one has sprouted, and it sprouted about 4 days ago. So, here's to hoping that it continues to grow!

Grow lemon seed, grow!
 


Tonight for dinner I am making something found of pinterest as well. You've also probably seen it:

I'm making it from memory... 375 for 1 hour? I covered it with foil?
Hope it tastes good, because it smells great so far.
Green beans, chicken, potatoes. Butter and Italian Seasoning dressing mix on top. 

And, for your dose of 'I wonder what Wilson has been doing... he's such a cutie... does he ever do anything bad?'

LIPSTICK EVERYWHERE!

For those that don't know... this is EXACTLY what I used to do when I was a kid! 

He smiled for this one. Ha. 

In Christ,
Julie
