Half Way to Baby's Arrival!

This morning we had an appointment for Baby's Anatomy scan, and the Dr. said everything looked great! I was very excited to see her checking off "normal" on all of baby's little parts in the computer before we left! Praise God for a healthy baby!

We also have info on baby's gender...only sealed in an envelope until next week! We'll open the envelope on Christmas morning to find out if we'll be thinking pink or blue. Waiting for Christmas this year feels a little like it did at age 5 again- I love it, and hope I can make it until then!

Second thought- I'll definitely make it to Christmas, because Bryan has hidden the envelope and DVD of the sonogram to ensure that I do! I still think he's the one who would crack before me...haha. We're both pretty determined to wait though, because we really do want to find out together on Christmas. Check back in after Christmas to find out!

Here's baby at week 20:


Baby's tiny feet!

The Dr. said that baby had both legs crossed and over it's head, just hanging out!

I feel baby moving all the time now, too! It's so much fun, and brings a smile to my face every time. It's such a joy getting to carry this tiny little life and pray over this baby, that he or she would know and treasure Christ above everything else. And while we aren't minding the quiet nights right now...we definitely can't wait for baby to get here so we can meet him/her!

O Tannenbaum...

If there's anything about the Holiday season that I love, it's a beautifully decorated tree to sit by on cool nights with a great cup of warm something! ...Mainly chai. I would say snowy nights, but living in Texas, well, "cool" is just about as good!

And this Christmas was especially fun, as we had our friends, Bryan's Iraqi "brothers" over to help us decorate the tree! Bryan and I hung about 3 ornaments each, and within about 20 minutes they had decorated the whole tree beautifully! It's by far my favorite tree we've had yet.



We made our own pizza for dinner, had homemade apple pie (Thanks Malika!!), watched "The Nativity Story" and listened to some great Iraqi music. Bryan even learned to dance a little, although at one point he ended up being taught how to dance like a woman...better luck next time around learning to dance like a man!

What a great Sunday!

Thanks again for coming, guys, and can't wait to have you back over again!
