Cruisin' at the Lake

Jackson and I had an absolute blast at the lake yesterday. We went to Lake Lewisville, which is only about 20 minutes away, with the Bullards. Unfortunately Scott had to work. Jackson had so much fun on "Mike's boat." He absolutely LOVED being in the lake and driving on the boat! I couldn't keep him in the boat when we stopped. He did take a nap on me for about 30 minutes while we were cruising. I thoroughly enjoyed having him cuddle on me. He even had his little legs tucked under himself which I love! It was a perfect day! So relaxing! Here are some pictures from our outing.

Cheeeeeeese! This is SO much fun!!!

Driving the boat! That's all he wanted to do.

Swimming by himself with the noodle. The kid's nuts!

Hmmm...a tree in the water...very interesting.

Cool! Gavin was so funny on the boat.

Mike was superdad! He was so good to Jack because daddy wasn't there. He kept calling Mike "daddy" or "daddy Mike."

Sweet precious Elijah.

The ladies.

Cheese! Mommy and Jack enjoying some quality time.

The Bullard clan minus Eli. Thanks for a wonderful day!

Holy Holy

I can't stop singing, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty." Scott and I went to the "big" ultrasound today where we tested to see if our baby had Down's, one of the Trisomy disorders, or any neural tube defects. I must admit the palms were a little sweaty and the heart was racing a bit. As surreal as this pregnancy is, I don't want anything to be wrong with this precious life inside of me. Well, holy is right. The Lord is not just good; He is awesome! Our little baby instantly began moving and grooving for us showing off fingers and toes and a great heart beat! Even though I am on my third, watching the miracle of life on that screen NEVER gets old! It truly blows my mind every time I get to see our precious angels developing inside of me! The scan came out wonderfully. We got all positives on all the scans the doctor (who was absolutely INCREDIBLE) could do. Now we just wait for some blood work to confirm that everything is okay with our little boy. ...

Tuesday Toddler Tales~A Mother's Worst Nightmare

I lost Jack. Don't worry, he has been found but for the longest I'd say 8 minutes of my life he was gone. I was at the mall with two girlfriends and their kiddos. We were all having lunch at the food court when I stepped away to get some ketchup. Jack stayed behind with his friends. I was gone for maybe a minute and a half or so. When I came back he was gone. His chair was pushed in and empty. I began to panic. One friend stayed behind with all the other kids while my other friend and I darted off in oposite directions. Others began to notice our panic and jumped in the search with us. I saw nothing in my direction, not even shoppers. I turned around and started the other way. I got to the carousel where I thought he'd be and he wasn't. At this point it took everything in my power not to faint. I felt like everything around me was spinning. I was so overwhelmed with where to look. I just kept running, frantically asking people if they saw a little blond-haired boy with ...

Notoriety

Teenage Mother A donkey owner Simon of Cyrene Who are these people? I am sure you can figure out the first one: Mary the mother of Jesus. Who are the others and what do all three of these people have in common? They all did extraordinary things but, for the most part, went unseen. Do you ever feel unseen? Undervalued? I do. I try not to get caught up in that space, but I find myself there too often. While Mary is infamous today, she wasn't when she brought the King into this world. She was a teenager who gave birth in a barn. She was an outcast who was pregnant but not married. She told of an unbelievable story involving an angel, a Spirit, and a Savior who was going to save the world. Could you even imagine? It's easy for us to be in awe of Mary. We know the whole story. She didn't. And neither did the people around her. She had to live it. To top it all off, she had to watch her beloved son die a gruesome death. Talk about feeling unseen and undervalued. She faithfu...
