Lists, Lists, Lists...

Ever since James and I moved to Bethel I have been making list after list. I make an Anchorage shopping list, a Bethel shopping list, cleaning list and whatever else I need a list for. Currently I am making a list for what we can spend when we visit our families for my sister's graduation and then my father-in-law's wedding. I can't help make a list. I am so forgetful especially after having Payton. I have to make a packing list. I'm making a grocery list for when I am Michigan since I am planning on making a few meals while I'm there. It's is extremely crazy....

Okay enough about lists. I'm sure you would rather hear about Payton.

Payton will be 3 months on Thursday (May 16). He is getting big. He just went through a growth spurt last week. One day he was eating a lot and sleeping. He would fall asleep eating to where I couldn't even wake him up. Then he was laying on the floor talking and I looked at him and was like he has gotten big. He is a little bit longer now. I'm pretty sure we are almost in the teething stage. He has been drooling like crazy. His gums are starting to look a little swollen (which I read that it could happen during teething) For a few weeks he was really fussy. Most of it was from gas, but some of it was him just being a fussy butt. haha...

James and I will be celebrating 3 years of marriage on May 22. Very exciting. It's hard to believe it's been that long. In August we will have been a couple for 5 years. Time is just a flying. We decided that we are going to celebrate by going out to eat when we get to Michigan. More choices to choose from then here in Bethel.

Well here are a few pictures of my sweet baby boy.


Don't mind my face. I am just posting since he stuck his tongue out


Really mom?


Enjoying the walk to the Post Office

At the end

It's 8:05 pm the night before my due date. I can't believe I'm the end of my pregnancy. I know that Payton can be late, but knowing the end is near is kinda nice. I've enjoyed being pregnant, but these last 3 weeks have been really hard for me. I not the biggest fan of surprises. I have to know what or when something is going to happen. James has a hard time surprising me because I'm always trying figure out what he is doing. *He did surprise me today with some chocolate and a Valentines day card*  Anyways knowing that Payton could come any time excites me, but also terrifies me. I mean when in the world is he going to show. I wish I could just be give a date saying that he will be born that day. Not a due date since most babies are not born on their actual due date. Poor James, I've kept him up numerous time in the past few weeks freaking out, stressing, etc. over this whole not knowing and knowing that I can't do anything about it really. God knows and I h...

Trusting.

Well, I've been going down the road of life trying to trust God in every situation. I'm praying and hoping that my husband can get a job soon, seeing since we are out of money and have bills still coming, mostly my student loans. I'm struggling with all of this just because James doesn't have a job yet. I'm sure I wouldn't be as stressed out if we had some money flow coming in.   During all of this I think back to when my dad had his open heart surgery 9 months ago. My mom was also trusting and believing that God would provide during that time. My parent's had bills coming in and had no money to pay them. My dad had his surgery on the monday before thanksgiving in 2010. My mom would come home during the week stay and there would be money in the mail for her and it was always enough to get her through.  I wish I could be like my mom and have the faith that she did. I've been very emotional during all of this. I haven't gotten a good night rest since...

might be good-bye for now, but not forever.

Almost every night I have a hard time falling asleep. Half of the time it's because I just am not tired enough to fall asleep, the other half is because my brain won't shut off. I always have different things that I want to write about in a blog, but then by the morning I forget about it. During the day I think oh I should write a blog.  I told James that I want to write one blog per week for the whole year. He just laughed at me and said, you'll run out of things to write about. Right now I feel like he is write, but on the other hand I feel like I can write a lot. Everything I want to write about is getting pregnant and the separation period with James being in a different village. So I guess I won't be writing a blog for awhile, since my last I don't know how many blogs have been about getting pregnant and my separation time. I don't want to bore all the people that might actually read this. So unless I can think of something else, you might not hear from me ...
