It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood!

Well, I've been gone for awhile, but it's entirely my own fault.  You see, I've been unable to get to a computer with internet access.  We brought our laptop with us to Arizona (did I mention that my family is currently on vacation, visiting my inlaws in Arizona?!), but unfortunately we are still having problems with the internet connections on it.  For some reason our wireless card will detect the networks available, but won't give us the option to connect to them.  So, that is a problem I will deal with when we get back home.  For now, I will just enjoy my vacation, enjoy this beautiful 87 degree weather, enjoy the peace and quiet of spending the afternoon with my daughter and my mother in law. 

Did I mention that I'm using my inlaws' computer to type this?  Because I am.

I've been thinking about this blog post for awhile now, wondering just how I'm going to encompass everything that I have to share - and I decided to be brief about it.  However, I didn't know if I should go the directly blunt route, or to skirt around the subject.  So instead of having to make that decision, I'm going to give both of them to you.

This one is me skirting around the subject: I'm just relaxing, enjoying the beautiful Arizona weather, being thankful that I am not experiencing any morning sickness with this pregnancy, touring ghost towns, touring the air force base ... staying incredibly busy!

This is me being directly blunt: Does anybody have any maternity clothes that I can borrow .... cause I'm going to need them soon!

In case that wasn't blunt enough for you, let me tell you that I AM PREGNANT!!!!  I had blood drawn for a pregnancy test at my OBGYN's office on Monday before we left and then heard the results yesterday morning.  To say I'm completely elated doesn't even begin to describe how I feel!  We're really excited .. even the kiddos were thrilled to hear about our great news!  I definitely will not forget the fact that God gets all the glory for this amazing life growing within me!  It worked out so perfectly that, when I finally truly gave my concerns to Him, He blessed and rewarded me with the desire of my heart!

Unfortunately my time is limited online right now, so I have to be brief, but I couldn't wait to share my great news!  I hope you're all doing well :)
