The past few days have been a mixture of fun and frustration. Frustration because our cars have some issues and who likes to deal with that, but fun because we have been working on our little boy's nursery. I don't have any pictures for us yet because it is still a work in progress but we have finished painting and it looks AWESOME! A tiny part of me wants to hang-out in that room because it is so cool. Here let me help you envision it in your minds eye. We started off painting the room in a dark gray, a big contrast to the light tan walls we origionally had. On the dark grey we painted a huge 1.5' wide horizontal stripe of 'Tennessee' orange. and underneath there is another 4" stripe of green. Gray, Orange, and Green!! While I have spent the last couple days painting, Bridget has been working on our other project for the room. She has been staining 1' wide wooden planks. We have a total of 8 12x1x8's to affix to a portion of the wall. We are essencially installing stained decking to the wall of the room! I am so eager to see how it is going to turn out.
The Lord has blessed us so much! Bridget makes a little money here and there painting furniture and reselling it and we need this little supplement of income to cover hospital charges for the new baby. As of the other day we are only a few hundered dollars away from attaining our goal! Praise God. He always supplies just the amount we need. I can't wait for our little guy. Name Update!: Ok, so those of you who know us know that the name stays a secret until birth, but we have narrowed the name down to two candidates. We are asking that the Lord confirms the name for us and is glorified with it's meaning. Will you take a moment to pray for our little boy to come and the name God might have for him? Can you tell I'm excited?

So excited! Can't wait to see the nursery, it sounds awesome. Sam painted Sofia's room granny smith apple green and it will have pink accents! I had this elaborate argyle wall scheme if we were having a boy, Sam was not looking forward to painting that.
We are so blessed with our little March additions.
Arlene!
