Bumpdate: Week 4





How Far along: 4 weeks

Baby's size: A poppyseed! So crazy!

Weight loss/gain: Lost about 3 lbs, I've been working out normally, and plan to continue unless the OB says otherwise!

Stretch marks: Sadly, I already have these, so we're not even going to discuss this every again! K? ; )

Sleep:  I sleep like a rock, like always!

Gender:  Only the Lord knows!  I always said that I don't want to find out, and as of today, still say that!  But, hello, this whole idea is still VERY new!  So, who knows what I'll end up wanting!  Zach has stated most insistently he will find out no matter what it takes!

Movement: Again, waaaaay too early!  So, we'll revisit this in a few months.

Best Moment of this week:  Finding out that God has blessed us with this little miracle after 18 hards months of trying for a baby!  We truly aren't worthy, but he restores us and has answered our prayers! We couldn't be more grateful.

Looking Forward to: Scheduling the first Dr's appointment and making all the plans to tell our families and then of course, friends!

Food cravings:  Nothing so far.

Weirdest Food I ate last week: Nothing I can think of.

Anything making you feel sick or queasy:  I felt just queasy most of the day today, which led to me retesting today!

Labor signs: Absolutely not!  Once more, not something I need to answer for a loooooong time!

Symptoms:  Sore chest and feeling sicky!

Workouts: Worked out Monday, Wednesday, and swam today!  Woot woot! 

What I miss:  Not a thing.  Things are still so new!

Things that stink: Having to keep this secret!

Things that don't stink: Knowing that we are going to be PARENTS! It just feels like a dream that I don't want to wake up from!

Mama's Thoughts: I think when I saw the results I just kept exclaiming, "Honey... Honey...Honey..." mixed with "I can't believe this, I just can't believe it!"  It just doesn't seem real!  I have already prayed multiple times that everything is going to go smoothly!

Daddy's Thoughts: Zach couldn't get many words in edgewise, but he did exclaim, "I'm the man!" and "It better not be twins!"  Haha!  We prayed over this sweet baby together and it was so sweet!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!

What I'm Thankful For...

Hey y'all. It's just Nathana in this post. I figured since I've been alive 20 years, that equals 20 Thanksgivings, so I'm gonna have the 20 things I'm most Thankful for. Here goes nothing! : ) 1. The first thing of course I am thankful for is my salvation through Jesus Christ! Without him I have no hope to be anything! 2. My mom and dad, and the home they raised me in. I could not imagine any parents better than mine, and I'm proud to be their daughter. I'm also thankful they didn't give me away to a farm when I was difficult! 3. My brother and sister. No one else knows all of the trouble we've been in and fun we've had over the years and even though we don't always see eye to eye, I wouldn't trade them for any other siblings. 4. Zachary Scheller. God has blessed me with an even better future husband than I could have ever asked for. My love and respect for him grows each day, and I will be so thankful this June when I can ca...
