New happenings!!!

I feel like we have had a few tiny miracles lately. First I am pregnant with a very healthy baby. We had our 20 week (really 21 week) appt at the doctors today. He confirmed that it is a girl!!!!! I am so excited. Especially since I have been planning on a girl for the past 4 weeks. Now I can really start shopping for her. And this also means I am more than half-way through my pregnancy! Hopefully Aspen will be here before I know it.

Another miracle is all the great deals we have found on baby furniture. I have been checking out kid to kid on a weekly basis to see if there is anything we like. Throughout those weekly/daily checks we have scored big. We got a changing table, crib, and glider w/ottoman for a TOTAL of $225. They are in great condition and just need to be re-finished. Luckily I have an amazing husband who has already gotten to work on them. What he has finished looks perfect. We also found a brand new, never been open pack and play for only $75 (originally $150). I am stocked to put Aspen nursery together!!!

The last tiny miracle is we bought a new car!!! After being down to only 1 car for the past 4 1/2 months this is great. We have been looking and looking for a new car, but nothing seemed right. We wanted something we could pay off before Aspen is born, but something nice. Well Tue afternoon I got an email from my friend Kim saying that her Grandma was just put in a nursing home and was trying to quickly sell her car. The car was a 99 Dodge Intrepid with only 68,000 miles on it. I quickly called and asked to see the car. They told us that 9 people have already called and were looking to see the car at 3:30, but since we were friends of Kim they would let us have first pick and come at 2:30. We quickly decided this was the the perfect car for us. We got financed for the car the next day and it was ours!!! We are so happy for our new car, especially since we were already able to pay it off. This was an answer to our prayers.
When we are living right tiny miracles happy all the time. I am so thankful for all these blessings!!!

Wow, Tiff and Ty, I remember how much you talked about different cars you wanted during your visit in Keystone last Christmas.

I'm so happy to see how your dreams came true.

I am so glad that all is going well with Aspen. I love kid 2 kid and I am bugged that there isn't one here. I'm really happy that the car thing finally worked out. Finding a car can be so stressful.

Was that a handicap tag I saw hanging from the rear view mirror...if so, keep that around :). Give Aspen a pat for me, and we will see you soon!
