Christmas Party

Our Sunday School Christmas Party was last Friday night. We had a great time. I am so thankful that God has provided us with great friends through this class that we can share our lives with! We had a wonderful time of food and fellowship. Here are a few pictures from the party. Hope everyone is getting ready for the holiday season. Only a few more days left! :)

Crib Disaster!

well... what can I say... I could hardly sleep Thursday night in anticipation for the delivery of Carter's furnature! I rushed around Friday and left a meeting at work early to get home to get ready for the delivery crew to deliver it! They finally arrived about an hour late and I was soooo excited! I showed them where everything was going and they begain bringing the pieces in one by one... The room begain to get smaller and smaller...For some reason the furnature did not look that big in the store! :) All of the pieces were in and it was time for them to build the must anticipated crib. Then, I was sitting in our dining room talking to my Mom on the phone and all of the sudden the delivery guy said, "Ms. White, can I speak to you for a minute". My heart sank... I had a feeling by the tone of his voice that what he was about to tell me was not going to be good. He told me that the back of the crib was cracked. I was devestated. I think he knew the tears were about to start flowing! ( Pregnancy makes us so emotional over the littlest things! :)) So, he then said he could build the crib and once the new back came in he would come and switch it out. I was ok with this, just as long as I could see it all in the room and fixed. As he started to build it, he came and told me there were multiple cracks in the wood and he would not be able to put it together. Well- then the tears really started. I think Mike was very embarressed that I was balling my eyes out over this crib! They promised me he had already spoken with the owners of Baby Furnature Plus and they were having a crib rushed and it should be arriving in 2 weeks. I have my fingers crossed theat it comes in ! :) I was hoping to have the room finished and ready by Christmas , but it looks like the chances of that happening are slim to none! I know in life we are not supposed to sweat the small stuff but it was a big deal for me to have all of this ready and done on Friday. I am pretty much over it now, and looking forward to it coming in soon. It did however give us a chance to move the furnature around ( NUMEROUS TIMES) on Saturday until I believe we finally got it right. I will post some pictures of the final product soon... I hope everyone is having a great monday and has a good rest of the week!

Update

I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to send a quick update on my pregnancy.The week of Thanksgiving I got the news that I have gestational diabetes. THis was not the news I wanted to hear, especially being right here around the holidays! I have been put on a diet and have to check my blood sugars 5 times a day! Let me tell you... that does not get easier with time! :) I have been back to the doctor since and he says my measurements are good and I will continue to see them every 2 weeks. At 38 weeks they will do another ultrasound to make sure Baby Bean is not too big. If so, they will induce me 2 weeks early.

We have also been contemplating a name. We have agreed on Carter! We are now trying to figure out what the rest of his name will be:) Names are tough!


Carter's furnature comes in on Friday. I am so excited! I can't wait for it to get here! I will make sure I post some pictures of the room once it is in and situated.

I hope everyone is doing well and having a great week. I can't believe Christmas is just around the corner! :)
