14 Weeks....Way Late

I am getting horrible at posting pictures. Here is me when I was 14 weeks.....the sad thing is I am so late I will be taking my 16 week picture on Thursday!! But o well!!! 

I still feel wonderful!!! Pregnancy has not been near as bad as it sounded. But Im sure the bigger I get it will be hard. I think that by me walking and swimming is helping me still feel great! In 11 more days we will hopefully find out what Baby Barnes is!!! I can not wait! Even though we both really don't care! It will just be fun to actually start naming the baby and picking stuff out! 

14 Week Picture

12 Weeks!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!!

I have had the 12 week marked in my calendar and was so excited to make it! Praise the Lord.

But I have a moment of honesty I must share....The past few weeks have been hard, I have been nervous, scared, you name it. I was reading a blog tonight and this women is also pregnant and has went through fertility problems. She was also having negative thoughts and fears. And said take it away!!!! Well what powerful words for me....Take it AWAY God!!! I am going to stop worrying about this baby that God has given us! HE is in control of this pregnancy and I know this is His child, so why am I worrying?? I am so thankful for being able to read these words of encouragment to apply this to my life!!
Please PRAY that I will continue to push these thoughts and Satin away because God is the one that needs my praises and glory right now!!

I am doing and feeling great!! I have been walking 2 miles about 5 days a week. I really think this is helping keep my weight down and me feeling good! Please continue to pray for us and the baby! I go to the doctor on Monday!! I can't wait to hear the heart beating again!!

My belly is not really grown any since 10 week picture. My pants are getting very tight though. I have never been so happy for my pants to be tight in my life ha! Thanks for all your prayers!

10 weeks

I am a little late posting this...but we have been at the beach!!!

Last Thursday marked 10 weeks. Praise the Lord! So by the time I get this post up it will be time for 11 weeks. But o well.
Yesterday I went to the doctor (my mom got to go with me since Nic had to work!) Everything is looking wonderful. I could actually tell it was a baby! So amazing! I feel so blessed to be carrying this child!

Here is 10 week picture.(at the beach!!!) Yes I feel like my belly is starting to show a little. It looks bigger in this picture than it really is ha! Madison just told me I can see your baby ha! But I am so glad its rounding out, reminds me that there is a healthy baby!!!


We have a strong heart beat....182!!! Yes I know its high, and by the old wise tale its probably a GIRL! That's my guess anyways!! But praise the Lord its a strong heart beat! And if it really is a girl I cant wait...

                                                 Baby Barnes at 10 weeks!
I go back to the doctor in 2 weeks. They will continue to see my every 2 weeks until after 12 weeks. I am so thankful they are watching me so close, it helps with my worries!

Is this REALLY a POSITIVE test????

Of course, everyone knew that we were trying. After miscarrying our twins, we felt that God was using that to witness to others. I never once thought that we didn't need to try again. And its amazing that since we tried how God so FASTLY blessed us with another baby.
We truly gave it to God. Besides this was his child anyways. We are just chosen to raise it up in the Lord.

We had planned to go to the lake with Nic's family on Memorial Day. I knew I was late and didn't want to try to ski if I was pregnant.
So....here I go into the DG to buy a prego test.(trying to not to let anyone I know see us) There was Aunt Donna and his cousin Brandon. (YES....its a small town ha) I was trying to sneak around the store and buy this test. We then stoped at Jeff's Market(a gas station) where I had my first POSITIVE test!!!! Thank you Lord!

I walked back out trying not to cry, scream, or laugh....since his family was out there getting gas too! We left the gas station with Addie(our niece). I started crying...over filled with emotions. I was scared, happy, blessed, excited, you name it. Addie started wondering what I was holding. She wanted to hold it...ha! We told her it was a tooth brush! This day was just the beginning of a blessing from God that I cant wait to continue to share about!!!!

Thank you all  for your prayers!!! They are what has helped us to get to this point!

PICKLES & ICE CREAM!!!!
