I'm on a roll...

3 new blogs 3 days in a row. I must be bored or just in the sharing mood I guess. I have to advertise for a photographer...she did a super job with 3 clicks on a camera and I am just amazed at her work. Jeremy and I went to a VIP(very important preggers) shower at the Palmer Events Center in Austin and while there we got lots of goodies and free stuff. Well, this photographer was there and she was taking belly shots and we didn't know we would be taking any pics or my hair would have been fixed with a bit more makeup, but this lady did a great job with us despite the flaws. We got 3 free prints and I am considering taking more with her(have not discussed this with the hubby yet) and I would even like her to take some of our baby boy when he arrives. So, for your viewing pleasure, the photo below is one that she took and I would encourage you to check out her website and browse for yourself. Have a lovely day! God Bless

I'm so excited...and I just can't hide it

Just wanting to share my excitement about my upcoming baby shower(s)!!! For my wedding showers, I was happy to have them but believe it or not I am not big on being the center of attention when it comes to gifts. But, with the baby showers coming I am super excited because it will be things that are for our baby boy and not just for us!! Some items have already been purchased on our registry lists and I am getting more and more excited as the days go by and it gets closer and closer to shower time. With only 3 months to go there is so much it seems like we need to do...the glory of it all, God will take care of it and I don't have to worry about a thing. :) Isn't it nice to serve a RISEN SAVIOR that has EVERYTHING planned out no matter what we do. I love it! Thank you Jesus!! As I am writing this our little man is getting some good kicks in on my ribs, quite a disturbing, yet amazing feeling. I can hardly wait to meet him!!! OK...I should try to get some sleep...something that is getting harder and harder to get these days. Thanks for letting me share my excitement blog!

GOODNIGHT & GOD BLESS

so much to say...

so little time to say it in

Sorry for the delayed bloggage(not sure if that's a word or not). lol. We have been super busy and super lazy(me) and not having internet at our new place yet isn't making this blogging thing much easier. It has been nice to just be away from the internet though...*sigh of relief*...Spending quality time at home with the hubby and no internet is quite enjoyable. Moved to Highland Lakes Camp and Conference Center the first weekend in April and we are just loving where God has us right now. It is so peaceful here and the people are AmAzInG. Could not ask for better friends and "family" oh and our WONDERFUL neighbors, lol. We are just happy to be there and happy to be alive and well.

The past 5 days have been spent playing, laughing and taking care of my nephew Daniel, we love our nephew. He is so much fun but so busy and I am happy to have a break. Not sure if I'm ready for this baby stuff yet, well, i know I'm not ready, but God will allow all of that to fall in place when the time is right for us:). He's pretty cool like that. The next few days I will be spending time with family in the big ol town of Milano, it's relaxing to come to my parents house and just be. Although, I do a pretty good job of just "being" when I'm home. Getting our little place put together has been a job, downsizing and preparing for one of the biggest space takers of our life all at once...I must say we have done a great job and really love our place.

I have entered into the 3rd trimester this week and I am feeling every bit of it. Baby boy Hellums has moved up into my ribs and that is pretty uncomfortable. Still enjoying his kicks all day long and night and laughing when he has the hiccups. That is the weirdest, coolest feeling to feel someone else having hiccups inside of you. Can we say UNEXPLAINABLE?!?! I love it! The throwing up and nausea has not stopped yet...I'm believing I will have it for the entire pregnancy, I mean, why not, I only have 3 months or less left anyways...I have handled it this far, why not take it all the way. UGH! pregnancy! So amazing yet so annoying.

We can hardly wait to see who our little man will look like. From what the sonogram tech said he already has daddy's chin :). I might post some belly pics on here, but most of those pics make it to facebook, since I am hardly ever on this thing. I think I have said enough for now....feel like I am rambling....and I'm starting to feel sick so I better get going.

Hope the update finds you in good spirits and I pray you have a blessed day!!! My husband is the blogger in the family and if you really want to keep up with what's going on in the Hellums' household, you can find all that info HERE

God Bless
