It's a Boy!

This was the best milestone of pregnancy yet- the excitement and anticipation of going for the ultrasound, awaiting the big moment, and then hearing the news; a boy! That moment was so precious. It's wonderful to be able to imagine him, what he'll look like and what kind of personality he'll have. He gave us one big hint when he wouldn't stop moving the entire thirty+ minutes of the ultrasound. The tech even asked me if I had a lot of sugar or caffeine before coming, haha! So, it looks like we'll have a busy little boy if he doesn't settle down between now and February. He also wouldn't quite cooperate for all of the pictures, so maybe he's a tad bit stubborn. But that may work for our advantage since it likely means he'll need another ultrasound once we get to Georgia.

Talk about a crazy week! Between the excitement of seeing the baby and all the last minute tasks and get-togethers before leaving the island, we hardly realized we were moving away from our home of the last two and half years. I have to say, I don't feel the least bit sad. Hawaii was like a nice, long, extended honeymoon. We're both glad we had the chance to go and experience something a little different, and we'll definitely miss our friends and the church family that we were beyond blessed to have. But now that we've moved on, we're so excited about everything that God has in store for us in this new chapter. There's just so many great things to enjoy and look forward to! Being closer to family, planning for our little boy, moving into a new home together soon...all wonderful. And hopefully it won't be too much longer before we make it back our more permanent home for good. Speaking of which, it's so much fun to be able to work on our house here and imagine it finished with our little family in it one day. It's always seemed like such a far-off goal, but by the grace of God, we're getting there! Except with Him running the show, it'll be even better than I've always imagined. Our cup truly runs over, each and every day. Thank you Jesus!
