Patient, Kind and Merciful....

Those are the words from an amazingly inspired man today. My father.

I have struggled the last couple of days with those very three things, especially when dealing with the ones I love the most. To blame it on the pregnancy and hormones would be all together too easy, and unfair.

I saw my dad for less then 15 minutes and yet he KNEW just what I needed to hear. I hadn't even said anything about having a hard week. And the words just flowed out of his mouth, so inspired, just what I was needing at that moment. Do you think he even knew what he REALLY had said to me?

The Lord works in mysterious ways my friend. Through our family and friends who are in tune and listening to the spirit. Thank you Dad for being that person for me today.

So that is what I'm working on...being in better tune with the spirit, being patient, being more kind, and being merciful.

Two, Two, or one of each?

My oh my...we are so blessed. We found out January 3, 2011 at 1:41pm that we are going to be proud parents to TWO pretty little girls! Yep! Girls!

FINALLY! as my friend Haley would say.

When the nice technician told us that baby "A" had "girl parts" I was so happy and extremely thankful to my Heavenly Father. And when she announced that baby "B" also had "girl parts" I was SHOCKED! and Ben nearly fainted I think. We were sure that we were having a boy and a girl. 

I'm so excited to start shopping and organizing and making room for our sweet baby girls.

Now....to find two girl names that Ben and I can agree on....

New Blog...

Today, I have started a new blog. Mostly just to track my pregnancy. I will do some tracking here on this site but most of the details will be on the other.

Check it out, but I must warn you, it will have LOTS of details Yucky or not.

It is called, What I wasn't expecting while expecting

Happy New Year! I love that today is 1/1/11!
