Amazing Day...for so many reasons...

So, the most amazing thing happened yesterday. A friend of mine came to know Christ! I have been praying for her for awhile, but God was moving in her life and yesterday was the day! I am so thankful for Crosswalk and the wonderful things that it has taught me about what it truly means to be an ambassador for Christ, and how we really need to reach out to others. It is so different from the things I heard growing up, and it's been tough, but God is good, and He has shown me amazing things! God bless my new sister in Christ and I can't WAIT to watch her grow!

In baby news, it is amazing that I can now feel the baby pretty regularly. I obviously can't predict it, but when it happens, I know exactly what it is. It is the most amazing feeling. To think that I am now 18 weeks! Time is flying!! I am just so thankful for all of the wonderful things that are happening in our life right now.

Eli is the sweetest thing too. When I tell him the baby is moving, he runs over and puts his hand on my belly, desperately trying to feel...I keep telling him that he won't be able to feel for awhile, but he just loves his little baby so much, so I just let him :) I am so thankful to have a husband and best friend that is so wonderful and loves the Lord and his family so much. It is going to be so special to be a little family and see him caring for his new little baby.

Only two weeks until we find out what we are having! Eli says to the baby last night, "Okay, baby, we will see you in two weeks..." I'm like what are you talking about? Then I realized he meant the ultrasound :) So sweet!

Here's me now:
