It is definitely time for an update. I am a horrible blogger. I am down to about 9 1/2 weeks left in the pregnancy. Everything has gone pretty well other than the hydronephrosis that tortures me on a daily basis. But so far my munchkin is strong and healthy so who am I to complain! I know the next 9 1/2 weeks will pass quickly like the rest of the pregnancy seems to have. Which is great because I a super anxious to smooch my little man, but also scary because I feel like I still have so much to do to get ready for him. He moves around like crazy these days. It's crazy laying there and watching my stomach move all over the place! Justin and I are quite fascinated by it actually :) Yesterday we went to a birthing class at my OB's office. Justin was not very excited about the 6 hr class, but he actually was super cute during it all. The class was mainly for him anyways haha.
Here is a 3D picture of our man at about 28 weeks. Seeing it on the screen in color was was a million times better. These pictures don't do him justice :)
Ward calling update: I'll give you some hints.
1. My heart dropped when he told me
2. The rest of what he said went in one ear and out the other as I was in total shock and internal panic.
3. He leaves, door closes, and a full blown panic attack/balling session begins.
What is it you ask????
WARD CHOIR DIRECTOR
My initial thoughts: How am I supposed to do this when I work every other sunday? PLUS, I don't know anything about leading a choir. AND, I am due in a couple months and it's right before Christmas which is a big time for choir numbers and I won't be around! And, I am like the youngest adult in the ward- who's gonna show up to practice and will anyone even listen to someone who doesn't know what they are talking about??
However, despite how I was feeling at that time, deep down under all my crazy emotions, I knew it was right. I know it is going to be scary and extremely uncomfortable but its obviously what I need to learn and grow in the way the Lord wants me to. So I prayed and prayed. And now I feel very calm and peaceful about it all. I know the Lord with guide and direct me. And that is all I need. And now looking back on that (this happened a couple weeks ago) I'm sure my hormones had a lot to do with my meltdown as well :)
This time of year excites me. I am so happy it is officially October! Which to me means it's officially Fall! The holidays are coming! And the best part? I will not be working any of them! This baby could not be coming at a better time. It is perfect. And no I didn't plan it this way ;) Hobby Lobby makes me happy. I go just to walk the Christmas isles and it is amazing. I am a Christmas nut and can't get enough. Big news for the Coffman fam this year- it's very possible that we may be getting a fake tree this year... not sure how I feel about it and I may change my mind. But the thought of having no pine needles to vacuum on a daily basis and being able to have the tree up and ready before the baby comes is very appealing... So we shall see. Anyways, that is the update on the coffman's for now. Yay for the holidays!!!!!!!
