... ... and the days begin to crawl~

Have you ever noticed when you are actually looking forward to something coming up in the near future, the closer it gets the slower the days?

Wow does it ever. I wish time would fly when you wanted it to, and slow done when it is going by to fast. That isn't the case. Seems like just the opposite anymore. Josh will be headed back to the states soon very soon, but the days seem to creep by now; both for him and for us. The next 38 days or so can't go quick enough!
Kaitlyn is big enough now I feel her all the time and so can anyone else, I can't wait for Josh to get home so he can be apart of that, the baby preparations, the shopping, and the excitement. Brecken felt her the other day and it was priceless. He is asking more n more now where his dad is and it is so hard because i can see in his little face how much he misses him and how he doesn't understand why it is taking so long. I know he doesn't have a concept of time, but he still knows it has been a long time...87 days to be exact. He is such a good little boy, I can't believe what an angel he has been through all this, don't get me wrong he has his terrible two days but they are few and far between. I couldn't ask for more!

Update!

Well Christmas is right around the corner and this year it is going to be pretty uneventful. It is really hard to get in the Christmas Spirit without my other half here, but little Brecken sure helps. He is so excited for Christmas, leaving Santa cookies, talks about what Santa is going to bring him, and LOVES listening and singing Christmas Music(as he calls it). What a doll if it wasn't for him I think this Christmas would be really tough. I can't wait to see his little eyes light up with all that joy. Have to get the video camera out so I can send a DVD to Josh.
On the other hand we had another Dr. appt. yesterday and everything is going well. I have another ultrasound in 3 weeks, and can't wait I love watching our little miracle. To my surprise I have only gained 10 lbs in 20 weeks (which is GREAT!). I can't wait for Josh to get home so he can feel her move, it is the most amazing feeling ever!!! Brecken tries to feel her too, and i think he did last night but i am not sure, he is so excited to be a big brother. What an amazing one he will be too!

I have added a countdown to my page to help me count down the days until Josh gets home. WE ARE ON THE DOWNWARD SLIDE :)

It's A Girl

We are so happy to find out we are having a little girl. We already have her name picked out... ... ...Kaitlyn Sophia Maree Wendell~

~Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get... ...
It is what you are expected to give... ...Which is everything~

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Well it is October 31st already.......
The Holidays are right around the corner, hard to believe!
Tonight I am going to take Brecken Trick or Treating, His first. How I wish Josh was here to share in this with us, but he is serving his country, a hero. We will take alot of pictures, and we video taped pumpkin carving for him as well. Brecken chose to be a baby dinosaur this year ( it is actually a Dragon but he can think it is a dinosaur). He is so darn cute, and what an imagination.

I hope to post pictures a few days after Halloween so everyone can See them......again

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Truth in a poem....

MY SOUL MATE

You are my soul mate and my best friend
fulfilling with happiness as forever has no end
My heavenly angel and gods guiding light
with the love that we share in pure delight
Giving and sharing two loving hearts as one
and blessed by the lord for all he has done.

My one and only soul mate is you my dear
with all your beautiful love erasing all fear
Knowing how preciously devoted we both are
sparkling together like the twinkling evening star
So brightly shining smiles glowing upon our face
and heart prints to share our loving joy and grace.

My soul mate for a life time will always be you
with the love so treasured purely real and true
We shall never feel alone with the bond we share
as this is living proof of a perfectly true pair
In all honesty a dedicated love that few ever find
the image of you locked in my heart and mind.
