Angel Faces

There is something about watching a child sleep that touches my heart. When I look at my little girls asleep I just melt. They are so innocent, peacful and beautiful. I don't think I could love them any more than I do.

Prayer

We had a mini family home evening lesson on prayer Monday night during dinner. I picked this topic because Ariana likes to say the fastest prayer she can for anything and I want both of my girls to understand the importance of prayer. We talked a lot about how we should think about the things that we are truly grateful for that day and thank Heavenly Father for those things.

Last night Ariana said a wonderful prayer. She was thankful for lots of different things but the two parts I enjoyed the most:
"Thank you for wonderful parents"
"Thank you for my money"

33 weeks and counting down...

...until baby Ashby #3 is here!Its been no secret that I've been wishing for a long time to have another baby and now that's its true I am so excited I can't keep it to myself. According to online pregnancy calendars I'm 7 weeks today. This is a little early for me to let the whole world know because I haven't been to the doctor yet and I have miscarried in the past just after my first trimester but I'm too excited to not say anything! My due date should be October 28 but we'll see what the doctor says. I'm feeling pretty good so far (the best I've ever felt and this is my 5'th pregnancy) but I cry at everything. Just yesterday I was tearing up watching Ariana in her dance class. I just finished reading Anne of Green Gables and cried through a lot of that book too. Hopefully I'll continue to feel good and everything will go really smoothly. I feel so blessed and happy to have another little spirit preparing to come to our home. I already love this baby so much (I loved them before I even knew I was pregnant) : )
