Taking a LEAP!!! =)

So....just a thought, then I will update you on the kids and my pregnancy!=)
When I decided to reconcile with my husband, it took a huge leap of faith..We were separated for a year, and before that...Well lets just say it was less than Happily Ever After. But I did love him...And I REALLY loved the idea of our family being together again. Well, lets just say, while separation is not the answer for everyone, I truly feel it was for us. We both grew so much. The last 2 months have been better than they EVER were, even when we were first together...We don't argue, we communicate, and there is soo much love in our household. I feel as though we are a team...I know everyday that even with both of our past mistakes, we are SO deeply in love.
Ok, that is that..basically, I just know I have made the right choice!
Now onto what is really interesting..THE KIDS! LOL!
Blaykers...We are working diligently on potty training him..We spend lotsa time in the bathroom...I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE if we could get him trained before Konnor gets here!!!! He is doing awesome with peeing...And has gone "#2" a couple times too. I just know with patience and persistence, we will get him wearin' his BIG BOY UNDIES! LOL!
Cierra is her normal SASSY self! She has her 2nd loose tooth, and constantly makes me feel how "loose it is today"! She is so funny...
Konnor...Konnor...Konnor....This kid is kickin' the CRAP outta me...HOLY COW! I feel like he is stretched out in my tummy, cause the ribs hurt, and the pelvis hurts, and the hip hurts....My goodness..I'm uncomfortable!! Only about9 1/2 weeks left, YAY! We got his clothes, and carseat last month! VERY EXCITING! I can't wait to get more, but since we are paying out of pocket for his birth, we must must must stick to a monthly budget! =)
I am still loving staying home. It is fantastic to be home when my love is...And on days like today, when I can barely walk....It is nice to take the day off!
Woodys work is good...It keeps him BUSY BUSY! Lots of LONG LONG Days... but it makes me able to stay home, and with so many without jobs, I'm incredibly GRATEFUL for what we have!
Thanks for looking! Have a grandtastic day! =)

First Blog!!

I have decided to open up a blog...I love to keep everyone informed of all that is happening with my family, and this seems to be the best way of doing it. Woody and I have reconciled, after a year apart, and things are fantastic between us! We live in Montana where he drives truck for an oil company, and I stay home with the kids. We are currently expecting our 3rd child, a boy, in May. Konnor Ray Merrell. We are excited..This will finally complete our little family! Cierra and Blayke love it here in Montana, and seem to be doing just awesome!!! I am so happy to have such a beautiful, wonderful family.

Cierra is in kindergarten, and doing wonderfully. She goes full days everyday and loves it!! She cannot wait to meet her new brother, and constantly talks to my belly! She also tells me she takes care of me because I'm pregnant...Such a sweet girl!! She is full of sas, and never fails to amaze me with how grown up she seems when she talks!!!!! She turns 6 in April, and I cannot believe it!!

Blayke gets to stay home with mommy all day, and until Little Konnor gets here, he has me all to himself! Lucky stinker!! He loves singing the ABC's and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. He doesn't quite understand about the baby...(If you ask him, he will tell you that he has a baby in his tummy) he loves loves loves his "Cierra Roo Roo", and you know it within five seconds of watching them interact!!

Life is really good right now, and I feel SOOO lucky! I have 2, soon to be 3 beautiful beautiful children, a loving wonderful husband, and oh so much more!!!
