Friday Faves

I always love when a friend shares something they love. I enjoy hearing about what friends are reading, what apps they are using, and what podcasts they are listening to. I listen to a podcast (I'll mention it in my faves list) where she asks her guests three things they are loving and three things they are reading. I thought it would be fun if I followed this format and share my reads and loves. I would love for anyone who is loving something right now to post in the comments or on social media. So, here we go...

Things I am reading:

Loving My Actual Life by Alexandra Kuykendall
**This book set off my summer of reset refocusing my attention to what matters to me and what I want my life to look like.
Present Over Perfect by Shauna Niequest
**This book is a breath of fresh air; to be empowered to remove the busy title and reestablish rest in our lives.
Giddy Up Eunice by Sophie Hudson
**Sophie Hudson is the author of the BooMama blog and is absolutely hilarious. Her reads are fun. This book reminds us ladies that we need each other and the need for relationships with other women of all ages. She uses stories of ladies in the Bible to open our eyes to the blessings that lie in relationships between women.


Things I am loving:

The Happy Hour with Jamie Ivey
**Jamie speaks with ladies who work in various fields talking about their passions and every day life. It's like two girlfriends chatting over coffee. Refreshing, inspiring, and fun.
IF:Gathering App
**I am a HUGE fan of the IF:Gathering ministry that Jennie Allen founded. This app is easy to use and has lessons that are quick and easy to follow.

Live Simply
Love Generously
Learn Constantly

Love & Blessings,
Meg

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. ...

The Cup

I walked into the kitchen and spotted a blue solo cup on the counter. The following conversation played out in my head: "Whose cup is this? Which kid took out yet another cup? Didn't I ask them to stop getting a new cup every time they needed a drink? What is wrong with these people? They obviously don't ever listen to me." In the midst of my frustration, I realized the cup was mine. Oopsies. Good thing I didn't speak those words aloud. I went on with my life and my to-do list leaving MY cup right where I found it. I am the grown-up and can leave my cup where ever my grown-up heart desires. I came back into the kitchen a little while later and saw the cup again. I completely forgot the cup was mine so I rehashed the above conversation in my head. I was baffled by who left that cup on the counter. And then I remembered it was me. Again. Y'all, I did this two more times throughout the night. It was like Groundhog's Day but I was the only one celebrat...

Baby on the Floor

Yesterday I was putting a couple of things in the closet for the baby of what is going to be the nursery. Jackson was helping me and asked me where the baby was going to live. I told him where and he was excited since the room is next to his. Later that night Scott and I asked him where the baby was going to sleep and he responded by telling us that the baby was going to sleep in his room. When I asked him where in his room he told me, "on the floor." Scott antagonized him telling him that the baby would not sleep in his room but in the nursery. Jackson got mad at him and yelled over and over again that the baby was sleeping in his room on the floor. Oh my...it starts already!
