I'm Sarah, and I am SO happy to get to know some new friends!
Parker is my precious husband and we
have been through LOTS together,
celebrating 8 years of marriage last summer.
lots of ups and lots of downs.
but BLESSED indeed.

God graced us with our sweet {and spicy} Abigail Joy
on Christmas Eve of 2009.
She is the LIGHT and JOY of our lives.
She keeps the spunk alive for sure. :)

the pic above is from Halloween-time last year...
{btw, my last year's ladybug will reveal her costume for you in a few days....stay tuned!}

This time last year, we lived in a different state,
my husband had a different job,
I was still adjusting {was?} to newmommyhood,
we were dependent on the Lord for ALL
(I mean to. the. penny) our financial provision.

This time last year {actually exactly one year ago today},
we found out we were pregnant with #2
And we found out 3 weeks later that it had gone Home to be with it's Maker.

This time last year,
I didn't know what blogging really was.

Since this time last year,
some things have changed, and some haven't, and I am
grateful for both.

We are still dependent on the Lord to provide for us.
We are adjusting to life in a new state with new friends and no family.
I am still adjusting DAILY to mommyhood.
And now toddlerhood. {yikes!}.

AND we are expecting another little princess,
due 10 weeks from today! {insert "wahooo!}

(thats me at about 28 weeks, and then me and A at the hospital getting the baby monitored,
finding out my bad cramping was due to an infection, but all is ok now. And A held my hand through it all.)

And since this time last year,
I discovered the blessing blogging has been in my life.
I thought it was just going to be a way to "keep the masses" of our family and close friends
up to date with our life.

but it is SO. MUCH. MORE.
{if you are part of this link up, then you probably already know that.}

I do blog to update and inform our family of what's happening.
but I also blog to share what God is sharing with me.
to share life with others.
to be encouraged by others.
to be blessed and to {hopefully} bless.

Photobucket

All that to say...
I hope you will stop by again, and I look forward to meeting you too!
Check out past posts, recent posts, and the buttons on the side over there,

I do hope you come back, I am already blessed to know you . . .

for reals. :)
