There's an incredibly sweet couple at our church that own and run a strawberry patch in the area. Since April and May are "Strawberry Season" Mitch and I decided to make a trip to the patch and pick some yummy, ripe berries! Here are a few pictures from our afternoon! Thanks so much Mike and Deek for letting us pick some of your amazing berries! :)
Sorry I've gotten a little behind lately on the picture posts! Lots to update! :)
I absolutely can't believe that in just a few months we'll be meeting our baby girl. We're so in love with her already. Every time I feel her move in my tummy, I can't help but smile. God is so good and we are so so thankful for this blessing.
Now that I'm going to be a mommy this summer, I've come to discover children's consignment sales and I have to say that I absolutely LOVE THEM!!! I volunteered at a HUGE sale in town this week and had the opportunity to shop on volunteer night and I was very overwhelmed to say the least. Clothes, strollers, pack and plays, even breast pumps, you name it, it was there!
I found the PERFECT bedding for Hensley a few days ago while volunteering at the sale. To make a long story short, I've been searching for weeks for different beddings that I really liked. I looked at Target, Babies R Us, and Wal-Mart to name a few, but I just couldn't find anything that really hit me with "This Is It". Well, I saw the bedding on Tuesday, but couldn't shop until Wednesday night (volunteer night), so I just prayed and prayed that if God really wanted Hensley to have this particular bedding that it would still be there when I arrived last night to shop. Well, thankfully, it was still there! I got her crib skirt, bumper pad, two sets of matching sheets, and her blanket for $20! Such a great deal and I' now one happy moma! :) I can't wait to paint her room light purple to match her bedding!
I can't say it enough... God is so good! Mitch and I went this past Friday morning for my 20 week appointment. This appointment consisted of so many exciting things! We would find out whether or not our baby is healthy, specifically his/her heart, lungs, brain, and kidneys, as well as, finding out the baby's gender. Needless to say, I didn't sleep very well on Thursday night! Thankfully, Friday turned out to be a great appointment with news that brought such happiness to Mitch and myself. Our sweet baby GIRL is completely healthy and already weighs 11 ounces!
After my appointment on Friday we decided to go to Babies R us to buy Hensley Elizabeth her first girlie outfit! :) It had to be purple! :)
Are you surprised that I'm behind?! :) :) Playing catch-up once again!
Throughout my pregnancy I'm trying to keep our blog updated with weekly pregnancy pics and survey and I feel like I'm already behind! haha! I've included two pictures this week, one from Week 13 and one from Week 14! I'll be 15 weeks tomorrow, so I'll be adding another within the next few days!
Mitch and I are expecting our first child in July!!! We are soooooo excited about this blessing that God's given us! I'm 13, almost 14 weeks along and Baby Evans is due July 14. :) I've included a picture of my 8 and 12 week ultrasounds, along with the most current picture of my baby bump :)
December was such a whirlwind for my family... My precious brother, Charlie, passed away suddenly the morning of December 15. Charlie was such an inspiration to everyone he came in contact with and God used him GREATLY in my life. I already miss him so much... So happy to know that he's walking, talking, and seeing for the first time in his life and he's doing these miraculous things with Christ... The joy that fills my heart! God is so good and I'm so happy for Charlie, but this has been extremely hard on us... He will be missed forever, but I WILL see him again one day.. WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH CHARLIE <3 style="text-align: center;">
