So in love...

For this child we have prayed,

and the Lord has granted what we asked of him.

LOVE.

He's here!!!!

We are both doing great and happily resting a home!

Korbin Boyd Goins

born on Saturday morning weighing 8lbs and 19 and 3/4inches

we are so in love with this lil' guy

Big Brother Kolton is so happy and doing great!

Tomorrow!

Tomorrow is the BIG day!! My csection is scheduled early in the morning so i doubt i'll be doing much sleeping tonight, i'm so anxious and excited!!

Please say a prayer for me tomorrow that God will guide the doctors minds and hands and my sweet lil' boy and myself will do great.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born, I consecrated you…” – Jeremiah 1:5

"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is a reward."

Psalm 127:3

its almost time...

So, no baby yet. i have had false labor for 7days but not bad enough for them to admit me to the hospital and do the c-section early. I am scheduled for a c-section THIS Saturday!! i'll be 39 weeks. I had an emergency c=section with Kolton because his heart rate dropped really low and they had to get him out QUICKLY. I was wisked away to surgery and put to sleep (no time for epidural) not knowing what i was going to wake up to. I thank God every day for watching out for my baby boy who is now as rotten as ever!! He came out healthy and wonderful, but that doesn't mean it wasn't the scariest moment of my life. God is good!

So with that being said, i'm really nervous something may happen again. The dr.'s have reassured me that what happened with Kolton isn't common and are positive it won't happen again. But, that really doesn't ease my mind. Only trusting in God is what is easing my mind! So, if you think about me on Saturday morning say alittle prayer for us!

We are so excited our family of 3 is going to be a family of 4 in just 3 short days. Nick and I talked alot last night about how wonderful God is. We don't understand why, but God has blessed us tremendously! We are very undeserving and praise him for all of our blessings. We can not wait to begin this new journey with another lil' one by our side!! Korbin we can't wait to hold you!!

We went to watch my brother's band perform at their CD release party!

Standing Small...check 'em out on Facebook! My bro is the drummer.

We spent Saturday at the waterpark and Kolton had a BLAST!!! It was the perfect day

not too hot and so relaxing!

he loved the slide...his favorite part!

The past week was wonderful! I hope yours was too!

This next week i plan on relaxing and getting the house in order to bring home my lil' baby boy!! I had a busy week and now my body is paying for it...i'm very sore and my hands have seemed to develop arthritis (not fun, even typing hurts!) I'm so glad all my sewing is done, because i'm not sure my hands could handle right now.

N is for Natalie...
