Its getting close

I only have 4 weeks until my due date, and its creeping up on us like CRAZY!!  With all the stresses of switching insurance and having to pay more money its been really stressful around my house.  I appreciate everyone's nice comments and everyone so willing to help us in any way they can.  At our last prenatal class last Tuesday the instructor said that "things that are a lot of worth, never come with out lots of hard work" I really liked that because I feel like all through out my pregnancy I have had little trials that have made pregnancy hard for me at times but Crue is worth a lot and once he is born I am sure I will look back and say all the work was worth it.

I also think that Crue is a special spirit and that Satan doesn't want him here and so he has made us get very discouraged when we have situations arise such as losing my job, and losing insurance etc those things weighed on me very heavily and it was hard to want to have baby Crue because I wasn't sure how we were going to pay for everything.  After realizing that everything will work out, and that Satan can get me discouraged I felt so much better.  I have loved Crue ever since I found out I was pregnant and I can't wait to be a mom to a wonderful little spirit that Heavenly Father sent me.

Here are just a few pictures to update everyone on what we have been up to lately!

 We repainted a dresser for Crue's room.

Went fishing at Payson Lake for the 4th of July.

 Stetson and Cody lighting fireworks for the 4th.

 We went to a family reunion for the Peter Maughan family up in Wellsville Utah, so me and Cody decided to make a little over-nighter out of it.  We got a nice hotel room for cheap, went to Bluebird and did a little shopping in Logan.  It was very relaxing and fun to be away for a night.

For the 24th of July we went to Payson Lake with Cody's family for the day, and then we had a bbq in Payson at his grandparents and lit fireworks.  It was fun to be with family and luckily it wasn't to hot so I was able to stay at the lake most of the day.

34 Weeks Pregnant!!! (Long Post)

It feels so weird to be 34 weeks pregnant already, I can't believe that in (hopefully) 6 weeks or less we will have a little man around our house.  It makes me so excited just to think about it.  We have most everything we need just a couple small projects to do then the nursery will be all the way done, and I can get pictures posted.  Cody has been such a great help getting everything ready including helping paint a dresser for Crue's clothes.  There is nothing better than to see how excited your husband gets when he gets to pick out some clothes for the new baby and he comes back to me with a huge grin on his face holding a Superman shirt, and of course a Batman shirt.  He will love Crue I can already tell, and that makes me happy!!!

On a sad note, on Friday the 8th I was laid off work...which meant that I would lose my insurance at the end of July.  What a great time to get laid off when I have a baby due in a little over a month.  There were several people laid off, I do feel pretty blessed though because Cody has a great job and its a stable job.  I have been so busy applying for unemployment which I will start getting in August so that will be nice to have the extra income, also applying for government assistance for health care is a pain but I am hoping the make a decision soon because I don't have much time.
I think that me getting laid off was meant to be, I wasn't sad or hurt that I got laid off I feel like it was meant to be so that I can be with Crue.  Its weird the calm feeling I have had since I got laid off, a lot of my pregnancy symptoms have gotten better since I stopped working.  I don't want this to come across that I don't appreciate working or having a job because I truly do but I think at this time in my life that Heavenly Father has a different plan for me to raise our little boy.  We have had money saved to help pay our bills for the labor and delivery so its been nice to have that set aside.  Its hard for me to not know what will happen, but I keep praying and hoping that everything will be fine and that I just need to trust Heavenly Father and things will be okay.

We have just started going to a family ward instead of the student married ward, and I am so glad we have made the switch, I don't feel like just a number in the ward anymore tons of people from the ward have already tried getting in touch with us for ward activities etc.  I am grateful that I married Cody and that he has the same views about church as I do.  I think its so important for Crue to be raised in a good environment with the church a part of his life.
