Life Update

On July 2nd, Will headed down to start his job and left his pregnant wife and child behind...(honestly, it hasn't been as terrifying as I thought it would be- just don't tell William).  So after a week of only talking on the phone, Bryce and I decided to come down to visit Will in Charleston.

While in Downtown Charleston, we saw the Carnival Fantasy!  

Great memories!  

Bryce was so excited to see the boat Mommy, Daddy and the rest of the Mewborn Clan lived on for a week and was extremely excited to point at the "Whale's tail"!

We came in for a night and decided to stay 2, and of course I only packed one outfit for me...oops.  Problem solved with a little unapproved hubby shopping but Belk has some amazing sales right now!  I came out with 3 dresses all for the low total of $48 with a savings of over $150 (not that I would have bought them at full price)!!!  I tried to find some clothes at the maternity store in the mall but that is another post in itself.
Pictures coming soon!

Bryce was such a trooper helping me shop!

We were able to see "our" house in it's next phase- drywall!!!  It is really coming together!  It is starting to look more like a house verses a stick figure house.  This was also the first time Bryce has seen it and I still don't think he understands what is about to (hopefully) come in the next few months.

Looking from our eating area into the kitchen.  Living room is to the left, that space in the corner is my Large pantry!  Through the middle door frame is our dining room (What will I do with a dining room).

Gas fireplace!

I foresee so many memories of sitting on the porch as the children run in and out!

Screened in porch with the color of our siding.

One more picture to finish up this blog.  The view from Will's hotel room overlooks where his Cookout store will eventually stand.  He will be about 10 minutes from home.  They were laying the foundation today!

A Package

Today this package came in the mail and it was addressed to ME! 

I never get packages anymore. 

Bryce is always getting packages from his wonderful family full of fun things to do or movies to watch.  William also seems to recieves packages in the mail, little things he buys for Bryce or little things he gets for us but I cannot remember the last time I had a package addressed to me.

What was in this package do you ask? 

Five little outfits for our baby girl!!! 

We just found out on Monday what we are having and my grandmother could not contain herself! Thanks Mama!

It is still hard to think that we will be holding a little girl in our arms by the end of this year. I get to have more than just a few things pink that hide in drawers in our house! I get to have a little girl dressed in pink from head to toe if I want to every day!  Poor William has no idea what he has gotten himself into.  Pink, frills, bows, tutus- I could go on and on and on and on....

Boy or Girl???

So the BIG day is finally here! The day we finally see our baby and the day we finally find out the sex of our baby!!!  I really wanted to do something special to announce the sex of the baby and I came across this fantastic idea of Building a Bear which is perfect because Bryce got to be involved and the baby got something!

Waiting for the ultrasound technician to come and get us!

Big Brother!

Waiting patiently for our turn.

Stuffing the bear with love!


Bryce really enjoyed washing and brushing the bear.



Putting on the outfit...Any ideas as to the sex yet?

IT'S A GIRL!!!

Home Sweet Home...Maybe

So after an amazing cruise to the Bahamas with my family (post on that soon), we came home to a lovely voicemail saying we were not able to qualify for the home loan in South Carolina, only because Will does not have a work history in SC (would love to know how people get loans for homes when they move from state to state).  The lender guy is an idiot and has not even informed us of this tragedy, it came from our builder!  So here we are trying to go through another lender as my husband gets ready to head off today to Charleston to start his new job tomorrow.  I was beginning to think things were starting to settle down.  This year has been crazy- February we found out we were moving, March we found out we were expecting, April finalized a three year ordeal as well as signing for our house, June was our cruise and Will's 30th birthday.  I really was beginning to wonder if I had titled this blog correctly for it seemed our Life in Limbo was going to settle down.  I was so wrong!!!  Baby is still due Dec 1st and now we have no idea as to when we will be in the house!  I do not handle stress very well and being pregnant only makes it worse.  My hormones are through the roof, I cry at everything, it is sad.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding"- Proverbs 3:5

I have always had a hard time letting things go and relying on him but I know that the minute I hand everything over, the stress will just melt away.  I know God has a path for us all, I just wish I knew it!!! 

I hate being patient...
