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

I DO I DO I REALLY REALLY DO

Today Jeremy and I are celebrating our TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!!! This man makes me happier than anyone on this earth. God really knew what He was doing when He created both of us for each other. Since March 10, 2007 I have not stopped loving this God given gift with all of my heart and that love will not stop until death do us part. Today will be a day of relaxing, reminiscing and love love love :). We came across our wedding book the other day and found it empty(almost) so we will be filling it out to the max today adding all the important heart felt details. I have posted a couple of our favorite wedding day pics for your viewing pleasure...

1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Scriptures about LoVe

Here are some scriptures that God has laid on my heart recently about LOVE, hope they touch you as much as they have touched myself. God is really opening my eyes to a whole new level of LOVE and the things in life that REALLY matter. Enjoy...

Leviticus 19:18
Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.

Deuteronomy 6:5
Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

1 Chronicles 16:34
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

Proverbs 10:12
Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers over all wrongs.

Proverbs 12:1
Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid.

Proverbs 17:9
He who covers over an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.

Proverbs 17:17
A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

Proverbs 17:19
He who loves a quarrel loves sin; he who builds a high gate invites destruction.

Proverbs 22:11
He who loves a pure heart and whose speech is gracious will have the king for his friend.

Zechariah 8:17
do not plot evil against your neighbor, and do not love to swear falsely. I hate all this, declares the LORD.

Matthew 5:44
But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

John 15:13
Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

John 15:17
This is my command: Love each other.

Romans 12:10
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.

1 Corinthians 13:2
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.Love never fails.

1 Corinthians 13:13
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

1 Corinthians 16:14
Do everything in love.


As Christians we are held to a very high standard...God's standard. We must always be on guard and always show the LOVE of Christ to everyone. If you are a Christian and you say that you are a Christian, then I urge you to begin to live that out in your life...act like a Christian so that God will shine through you and through your daily actions so that the lost world around you will want to follow the same God that you claim to follow. This is a tough battle, but hey, God has already won it for us. I will be praying for you as you walk the Faith and I ask that you would pray for me as well. Christians, we need each other. We need to be Christ to each other, not tear one another down, but rather show LOVE at all times and be there to lift up and get going again. Be Blessed
