Our growing family...

Yes, this time, it is what you think. No, we didn't get another dog. Three is enough for us for now. But, yes, our little family is growing.

We are having a baby!!!!!!!!

We are SO excited!!! We found out a few weeks ago, and couldn't be more thrilled!

We hadn't told anyone, but had been trying to get pregnant while we were in South Carolina, for about a year. Once we found out that we were going to be getting orders, we quit trying due to the upcoming move. Not to mention, I wouldn't have a job here yet. And, here we are now, with a baby on the way! It just goes to show, it's not on our time. God has an ultimate plan for our lives, and it will be in His time, not ours.

I will try to answer some of the questions that I have gotten recently... I am about 8 1/2 weeks along, so the due date as of right now is Feb. 4, 2010. Sounds like a long time away, doesn't it?

Yes, we want to find out the sex of the baby. I am WAY too much of a planner to not find out. Unfortunately, it won't be until mid September when we can do the ultrasound to find out.

I am feeling pretty well right now. It was a little rough for a few weeks, but I hope that I am on the downside of the sickness. I have been told that it usually only lasts through the first trimester, which should only be about another 3 weeks. I am holding on to that! :-)

We have a few names picked out, but haven't settled on anything for sure yet.

John is being such a wonderful husband and being so supportive through this whole thing! I am not sure that it has really hit either one of us yet, but he is being great! I feel like I am being so lazy because I am so tired all the time, but he keeps assuring me that I need to rest and take care of myself. He is helping me so much and I can not even put into words how lucky I am to have such a great husband!

So, that's it! That's our great news! I will keep you updated as we make our way through this amazing process! We would appreciate your prayers for a healthy baby!

Lots of love!

Spurt Blogger...

This last weekend, I was told that I "blog in spurts". I know. I am guilty.

I promise there is some exciting stuff coming up on our blog very soon. There has just been a lot going on around here the last month. I have a lot to update everyone on. And, I promise I will get around to it!

Until then, check out this site.... http://johnandbevinwilliams.shutterfly.com

I started this site because it is so much easier to just upload my pictures and go. So, here, you can see what we have been up to recently. (Not to mention, some great old pictures) And, again, I will get caught up with this blog. I promise! Very soon!

Until then, love and many hugs...

The M&M Weekend, and SO much more... Part 2

Here are more pictures from this weekend.

The M&M Weekend, and SO much more...

Well, this last weekend, while John had drill weekend at work, I trotted off to South Carolina to visit my extended family. The weekend flew by with not much down time, but that's how we roll :-) It was the weekend of the annual Brother/Brother Golf Tournament at Old South! We had a blast! Of course, we didn't play, but we participated in other ways. Lots of pictures, lots of hugs, lots of laughs. It was so good to be back! I was welcomed back at Old South with open arms, and it was so great to see everyone!

Of course, it is always good to see my Johnny and Jill. We had such a wonderful time, it's no wonder we were all in tears at the airport on Sunday. I have posted a lot of pictures. We are now eagerly planning and looking forward to Johnny and Jill's trip to the great state! Hopefully that will fall sometime in July! The sooner the better. As for me...I am already planning their MOVE here, not just their visit :-)

This week is a HUGE weekend in our family! Channing and Austin are getting married on Saturday! We already have relatives in town, so the festivities are already beginning. I am sure I will have a lot of pictures to post after this weekend. Stay tuned!

I have a big interview this Wednesday, so keep your fingers crossed. I hope to have some good news to post soon!

Hope everyone has a great week! Here are some pictures from this weekend...

Love and hugs!

My wonderful husband...

So, this coming weekend is Drill weekend for John, which means he was off work today. I got up early and went to work. I come home after work today and walk through the door, and this is what I find sitting on the table in the entry way...

Really?!?! How great is my husband for getting me flowers for no reason at all! He said that they are "happy flowers".
What a thoughtful thing to do! I love you, baby!





Happy Birthday, Dave!



Saturday was our sweet Dave's birthday. We spent most of the afternoon and evening at Cheryl and Patrick's house, just hanging out. We had such a great time! We got to see the beautiful new house, eat some rockin' hamburgers that Patrick grilled, and just enjoy the beautiful weather. This is our favorite way to spend a Saturday night! Happy Birthday, Dave! Thanks for including us in your family! We love you!!!

Last weekend we celebrated Kyle and Shelly's upcoming wedding with a fantastic wedding shower. We had a great turn out, good food, lots of presents, and a great time visiting! Mandy, Shelly and Caleb were all even able to make it in town for the festivities, and we were SO glad to have them here!!!!! We wish they would move back to Texas!!!!!
