I'm sure you all guess me, and if you did thats correct!! I am going in on Wednesday to have my sweet little girl. I am having her C-Section due to my fibroidial tumors. Things are looking good but its best that we get her out sooner. I really cannot even begin to describe the way I feel. I am so over joyed with love and excitement, but at the same time...I'm a little nervous. Mostly about the operation. But I mean...at lease I'm getting something out of this one. hehe :)<br /><br />I will be starting a new blog as well!! This blog is all about getting our family started. Since that has happened already, I want to start a new blog with a new name. I'm thinking I'll call it "The Adventures of Evie" because thats all its going to be about...my sweet girl.Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-39565482510121209172007-11-07T20:58:00.000-08:002007-11-07T20:59:36.177-08:00Working on my blog.after a few lessons, I have decided to change my blog around a little bit so it will be under construction for a little while!Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-24489004786373006362007-11-07T19:36:00.000-08:002007-11-07T20:39:07.175-08:0033 weeks and counting...Oh my goodness! I just looked at my ticker at the bottom of the page and saw that it read 33 weeks and one day pregnant! Although I knew this, it still took me by surprise. Whenever I first posted the ticker, it read only 5 weeks and I remember thinking about how much longer until I would get to hold this little girl and now...I am thinking to myself I haven't had enough time to prepare...wow time flies! We have been doing alot of preparing for Miss Evie and I have posted a few pictures of things that have been purchased recently...along with a belly shot. I had a doctor appt. today and she is just growing so much! I hope to get the ultrasound picture scanned and posted soon!! The doctor says that Evie will probably be making an appearance in about 3-4 weeks which is so exciting! I cannot wait to hug her and kiss her and let her know how much she is loved by her Mommy and Daddy. I am also very excited about posting her picture for all of you to see! hehe.<br /><br />Well..thats all for now! Enjoy the pictures...I will try to have an update next week!<br /><br />Isn't this the cutest bassinet? It was a gift from my sister and her family. Miss Evie Rose will be sleeping in this for awhile in the beginning. Oh I cannot wait to see her sweet little sleeping face!<br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u3/livandnatsmom/sold/IMAG0091.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br />Such a sweet little dress from Mommy.

I am still here!Let me just say, the excitement of preparing for our baby girl has been amazing! We are both just so happy! Since we know that we're going to be having a little Evie Rose, I have selected the bedding! This is such an exciting thing for me because I just love love love decorating! Miss Evie will stay in the room with us for the first few months and then she will get to sleep in her "suite"<br />Hehe, that is what we have been calling it. The room is right across the hall from me and Trent so that is always good! I won't freak out as much when it comes time for her to sleep in her crib...I'll still probably freak out though!! =)<br /><br />Here is what we selected after many many choices...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1DI_XZOSxJQZA2EGVYgFbAeFWKHqLEZdewSDw84nWiDM7_EGtXG4HGvM2s9QNmcvOV-EZjMagmbsZ4At6TSEzr7N5IANyfFsEMED3YKGF5FMBS8H2QzmzKyvi2zASpM5qQUnpv9Sgp7w/s1600-h/bedding.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1DI_XZOSxJQZA2EGVYgFbAeFWKHqLEZdewSDw84nWiDM7_EGtXG4HGvM2s9QNmcvOV-EZjMagmbsZ4At6TSEzr7N5IANyfFsEMED3YKGF5FMBS8H2QzmzKyvi2zASpM5qQUnpv9Sgp7w/s400/bedding.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5106190383338948242" border="0" /></a><br />Isn't it so adorable??<br />Now...we just need a sweet baby girl!!!<br /><br />Happy Blogging!Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-56186204598011198282007-08-19T12:55:00.000-07:002007-08-19T13:20:07.212-07:00It's a...<div style="text-align: center;">Well, after Friday's appoitment, we are sure that we will be welcoming a sweet baby girl into this world!!!! Word's cannot even begin to say how much in love I am right now. Whenever I think about the life that I have been given, it truly amazes me. And now, knowing that I will soon be a Mommy, I am even more in awe with the mighty works of God. As I sit here and thank about it, tears of joy stream down my face. I have been so blessed in my life and things seem to be getting even better!<br /><span style="font-size:100%;">Praise God!!!<br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">The appoitment went really well other than they spotted 2 tumors developing on my uteru</span><span style="font-size:100%;">s. I have had these fibriod tumors for about 4 years now, and they are just now flaring up again. Please pray that our sweet baby girl can stay safe inside of me until at least a good 32 weeks. There is a very good chance that they will have to take her premature if they cannot remove the tumors. She was showing off during the ultrasound. She was sucking her thumb basically the whole time, it was so precious. She's not even here yet and she already melts Mommy and Daddy's hearts.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">We have decided on a name....are you ready???<br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Evie Rose!!! Yes, yes, I know it wasn't on the list, but I had a dream 2 nights ago that I walked into the bedroom and picked up a precious baby girl with the name Evie Rose printed on her shirt. I woke up and I was so in love with the name that I had to wake Trent and tell him. He actually really liked it and we vowed that it will not change, this little girl is our little Evie Rose!!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXWvfAh5anHUmaxdVqUxjw8pGFEWqMpfoOi7H87jFpdggA8GqgoRJx-5SYSV_XRVg7NMB7ztPg3fyIFwEVv-w6RbUSp-eS63ymlMUgr9NSw2b8Dr2MprhU-46B2WMmswSu4M9vim-yrPo/s1600-h/babypic.bmp"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXWvfAh5anHUmaxdVqUxjw8pGFEWqMpfoOi7H87jFpdggA8GqgoRJx-5SYSV_XRVg7NMB7ztPg3fyIFwEVv-w6RbUSp-eS63ymlMUgr9NSw2b8Dr2MprhU-46B2WMmswSu4M9vim-yrPo/s400/babypic.bmp" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100507802303923826" border="0" /></a>There she is, a perfect, sweet little girl!!

We were able to get out of the last one but now...here it is again. ***awwww, just wanted to say the baby is moving right now*<br /><br />So anyways, this week hasn't been meant for me and I just need some time.

I got alot of comments and emails from everyone telling us what they thought. I did get one not so nice email and it was from an unknown sender. They were telling me how they thought all the girl names were stupid and odd. Well, we like what we like and you like what you like so let's just grow up!<br /><br />So...<br />we are 100% that a boy will be Aiden James, but I do not want to spell Aiden like that. I like different spellings. Any ideas??<br /><br />and for a little girl, we are still deciding.<br />I think that I can talk Trent into Brylee (he wants Kenlee) but I do not think that he will go for Kiercy *sigh*<br /><br />I know we still have plenty of time, we are just anxious. hehe<br /><br />I will be 5 months in 2 weeks!!!Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-24045102620418741682007-07-17T20:09:00.000-07:002007-07-17T20:14:55.575-07:00Baby names...I told you they would change!Well, I have been thinking about our little ones name for quite sometime now and Trent has finally agreed with a few. We both like the more uncommon/unusual names that you don't really hear of. Here is what we came up with...<br /><br />For a girl...<br />Kiercy Rose<br />Brylee Rose<br />Kenlee Rose<br /><br />For a boy...<br />Aiden James<br />Rylan James<br />Radley James<br /><br />What do you think???Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com19tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-47628903214911301102007-07-12T18:57:00.000-07:002007-07-12T21:05:04.912-07:00Month 4...<div style="text-align: center;"><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k235/misslibby1391/18wk-ultrasound-2.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br />There is our little pumpkin!!! I had my monthly appointment today and it went really well. Baby is growing well and believe me so am I...ha ha! I have already gained 15 pounds since my first appt.<br />Oh well, thats part of it and I wouldn't change it for anything! During the ultrasound, baby was showing off big time. It was hilarious! She (or he?) would wave at us, suck thumb, and wiggle all over the place. It was the cutest! I say she or he because we still aren't 100% if baby is a girl, that is just what it looked like in an earlier ultrasound but it was really to soon to tell. Next month, we should be able to get a good look. I am hoping baby cooperates!<br /><br />Things are slowly coming back together around here.

She made it for me the other day when I became 15 weeks pregnant. I am a little late posting it but I haven't had much computer time lately. I can't wait until this months appointment, I am hoping that we will get a new "baby picture!"<br /><br />We are still recuperating around here. However, things are getting better! Thank you all so much!!Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-55520680650346800582007-07-03T09:25:00.000-07:002007-07-03T20:13:57.847-07:00We're getting thereBefore I even begin with my post, I want to let everyone know what your kind words did for me and the family. Reading all the comments, email, and prayers was such a tremendous help. Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart. Words cannot even say how grateful we are to have friends and family like all of you!!!<br /><br />The funeral took place last week and it was the hardest thing (without a doubt) that I have ever done in my life. Their wasn't a dry eye around, even the pastor just cried and cried. The burial was very intense as well. Trent is trying so hard to pull it together but he is still having a hard time. He says that he can't even begin to think why this had to happen to our family and he is having a lot of anger in his heart. Right now we are trying to keep his faith and glory to God very high. The rest of the family is doing alright. Rachel (James wife and Kennedy's mom) is at a very low point right now and is in need of prayers. She let everyone know on Saturday that she thinks she might be pregnant. Now with the loss of her husband and daughter, she is in such a bad depression. We're all just having to take it one day at a time and keep our faith very strong.<br /><br />Both James and Kennedy are buried side by side on a hill near Trent's parents home. Heaven has 2 beautiful new Angels!!!<br /><br />I won't be on as much as I am normally for a little while. Its just going to take some time to get things going again.<br /><br />Thank you all so much for everything!!!Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-42736433175702259882007-06-27T11:51:00.001-07:002007-06-27T19:00:37.964-07:00It happens so quicklyHey everyone, sorry for the lack of post here lately. We have had a tragedy in the family...Trent's brother and niece were killed on Tuesday by a drunk driver. The family is taking it very hard. The news came so quick and so unexpectedly that they are basically still in shock from hearing the news. He was only 26 years old and his daughter was 7---they were on their way to the movies when it happened. Trent is doing pretty bad along with the rest of his family. He doesn't want anything to do with anyone right now but he will get through it over time. Thats just what it takes...time and prayers. The funeral is tomorrow, it will be so hard to see Trent (and his family) but I know with the guidance of God we will all pull through...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">In Loving Memory</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">James Randall</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">1980-2007<br /><br />Kennedy Beth<br />2000-2007<br /></span></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u249/cherish3667/inPrayer.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br />* I was asked if the drunk driver was killed...the answer is no but he is in critical condition and they still aren't sure so he and his family do need prayers as well.<br /></div>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com38tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-3924523982926337392007-06-22T12:45:00.000-07:002007-06-22T12:51:39.898-07:00I couldn't pass it up<div style="text-align: center;">Well, Trent has been wondering how much longer it would be before I went out and did this..and today it happened.

I did have an ultrasound and I was very surprised when I found out that it would be a "vaginal" ultrasound. They need to be able to get a very good look at my uterus because of the tumors. Everything looked amazing and the little heart was just pumping away! The doctor asked us if we were interested in finding out the sex of the baby and we said yes (of course) She then told us that it might be a little to soon with a regular ultrasound but since this one was 4D and vaginal, we might be able to tell now. Well here is the thing...she said that by 13 weeks, you can tell if it is a boy because of their obvious parts and we saw NOTHING, and it was a very clear shot. So we are thinking that we have a little Brylee Rose in here. Whatever God gives us will be such a blessing, a little miracle...a girl would be nice though :)<br /><br />I do not have the US picture with me but I do have a very special picture to share with you all...<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Baby Rilee,</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Coming Home from Guatemala in 2 days!</span><br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c161/jpvs101/amigos/mara.jpg" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a></div>Oliviahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07946194375294246813noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482780044348420629.post-49117293287544763162007-06-15T20:47:00.000-07:002007-06-15T20:51:53.797-07:00Finally, FRIDAY!This week has went by so slow if you ask me.
