Only a month behind :)

So I told you guys I couldn't make any promises about keeping up weekly with this blog :)  It's been a little busy around here lately. It seems once October hits, it's time for Thanksgiving and Christmas! Good news is...we're over the half way mark! Whoohoo! We are now 21 weeks and 5 days! Isaac is growing and he's actually a week ahead of schedule is what we found out at our last appointment : ) so possibly the first week of March instead of March 12th. Doctor is still going to say the due date is March 12th though :)  Isaac was 13 ounces last appointment.

We go back November 15th for our next check up. He should be a pound! He is definitely moving a lot more. Especially at night when we're home and I'm sitting on the couch every night from about 8:00-9:00 I can really feel him. Matt has felt him two times, but he has to really be kicking. So far he's definitely got a pretty good kick on him : ) So those things have been really exciting for us. It's just amazing to sit there and feel him moving like that. God is just so amazing!

We've got his bedding and things picked out. The grandmas are going to take care of those for us!-which is awesome!  I don't know who was more excited about that Matt or the grandmas :)  We've got the paint colors narrowed down and will try to get his room painted and beaded board up before Christmas because things will be getting extra busy! Cravings have been here and there-Isaac and I definitely really enjoy ice-cream!  Also, spicy foods are good- and after every meal comes indigestion and heartburn-all i can say is he has to have matt's hair! Because I was bald. Matt however was cool and had a mohawk going on it's adorable. I'll try to post a picture-he'll get me good if i do that though :)  So that's the scoop so far! I will try to do better :) Awww yeah as Isaac's first halloween Trunk or treat at church sort of with us this is what the family dressed up as minus mac :(  he was there with us though through the excitement :) We were Abraham, Sarah, and Isaac! Really tried fitting mac in but even as creative as matt is he had trouble coming up with something for mac.

Here's what we're praying for this week in Isaac's development from our little prayer book:

Lord, 

My little baby is adding fat to his bones this week. How exciting! This will keep him warm for when he enters into this cold world. THese layers will cushion and protect him and give me something to kiss and pinch :) Lord, I pray that you will always keep our child warn and protected. I thank you that he will be born in a warm place and live in a warm home. I thank you that we can afford diapers, clean clothing, and blankets.  And he'll have so many loved ones to snuggle with around the clock. God will you send your angels to protect my darling child? As much as I'd loved to be there for him every second of his life, I know I cant be.  Even if I could, some things are beyond my control. Help me trust you to protect our little one.  He already means the world to us.

In Jesus Name,

Amen!
