Good Busy

Hello Friends!

I'm finally blogging! I do all sorts of stuff and even take pictures, but sometimes I find it takes awhile to actually sit down and type.  Thank you Becca for getting the ball rolling on getting us all together!  The time has creeped up on me and now it's almost two weeks until we get there!  I'm so excited for our trip.  Justin and I are going to be making a stop on our way to Seattle and visiting the Grand Canyon and Zion National Park for four days!  I can't wait to go camping and have it warm enough to wear shorts.  So many fun things to look forward to right now!

Life has been a good busy around here.  Easter was really fun and relaxing.  I was spoiled and got Monday off all to myself (Justin had to work), so I spent the whole day sewing.  I finally bought a serger with my birthday money!  I'd been wanting one for a long time, and was able to get enough for my birthday to finally buy one.  I love this thing!

My first project is a maternity swimsuit.  I've almost finished the top and I need to get started on the bottoms. It's amazing how easy it is so sew stretch with this machine.  I'll have to show you a picture once my suit is finished.  

I also took a picture of my lunch from Easter Monday.  It's one of my favorite lunches and disgusting to a lot of people (especially Justin). It's just spam, rice and seaweed.  My Korean friends in the Philippines introduced me to it, and I just find it so good!  It's the lunch I have whenever Justin's not around.

Last weekend was our first haul of baby stuff!  We went to a few garage sales and picked up a jolly jumper for $2! Our friends also gave us a basinet and some baby clothes.  It feels good to get started and see the baby stuff piling up.  Just over four months until our little one gets here! 

I'm at 22 weeks now.  It's funny sometimes I don't feel that big and then other times I feel huge.  Tonight was the first time Justin got to feel the baby move!  Justin had the biggest smile on his face, it was so sweet.  I'm so excited to see him with our little one.  

Adding to the busy-ness of the week is that I'm working with brand new curriculum that our school just developed.  There are four more weeks of lesson planning ahead, which isn't that bad.  It's nice to be doing something new, which makes work more interesting, but it's also a challenge at the same time.  

Our church has been doing a discipleship series for the month of April centered on the Healing of the Heart.  I'm going to be sharing a bit of my testimony at our last session (this Wednesday).  It's about how God has worked in my life focusing on being content and some of the struggles I've gone through since moving to Canada.  I know that God wants me to share, but I randomly get pangs of nervousness as I think about.  It'll be great once it's done that's for sure!  If you ladies could pray for me that would be awesome.  

I feel so blessed that I get to meet with all of you soon.  I can't wait!
