One of my favorite pictures...:)

As I mentioned before, my aunt adopted a little boy...this is a picture of Zack and I with my new cousin. He's such a blessing! I can't wait for he and Sierra to grow up together.

Weddings, Showers, and Family!

The last few weeks have gone by really fast. Last weekend, my little sister got to come home for two days to attend my dad's wedding, go to a couple of showers, and spend time with family. It's always so much fun when she is here and I get so sad when she leaves me. :(

My dad got married to his longtime girlfriend, Minerva. It was a nice small wedding. It was good to see some of my family that I don't see very often.

In other family big news, my Aunt Emerald adopted a little boy! He is just over two weeks old. His name is Hudson and he is truly a blessing. Emerald has wanted a baby for so long. Hudson's biological parents were teens who could not take care of him. Through family connections, they found Emerald and her husband, Andy. He is just perfect! I am amazed at how it worked out and thank God for these parents who were so selfless. It has made Emerald so happy and complete. What a miracle!

It was a busy weekend with Hudson's arrival, shower, and dad's wedding, but they are happy things so no complaints.

As you can tell from the pics, I am getting larger by the day. And it seems no matter how hard I try, I cannot just eat healthy--healthy food sounds disgusting to me right now! So, I try my best and pray this weight will fall off after Sierra arrives! :)
