28 Week Bumpdate

...28 Weeks is here...
...Baby Ring is kicking up a storm and making her presence known...
...we can't believe she'll be here in just a few months!!!


Size of baby:  The size of an eggplant! About 2.5lbs... :) Growing, Growing!
(as you may have noticed I deleted the baby ticker at the top, because it hasn't been updating properly...just an fyi)

Symptoms: Heartburn, many bathroom stops, hungry every few hours.

Cravings: Still loving fresh fruits and vegetables.  Grapes are a fav at the moment.  

Something you miss: Being able to sleep through the night without pit stops and bending over without any limitations. :)  

Milestones: We now have a crib and changing table in the nursery!  YAH!  We need to decide on colors and then paint.  After that, the closet can be put together (over here you don't have walk-in closets that are there, so you have buy closets).  I'm looking forward to getting that up, so that I can start washing organizing baby clothes and other baby things.  Saturday, a dear college friend and another good friend are throwing a baby shower for me, the church ladies and the ladies from Felix's family.  I am really excited about it. 

Looking Forward To: Meeting our little girl in about 12 weeks.  Going to the doctor for a normal check-up on Monday. 

Prayer for our baby this week:  That she will continue to develop and be strong and healthy.  That we will know how to raise her in a godly home. 

PS I stole this idea from a blog!  I thought it was fun and wanted to do it. :)

10 Months

Baby Z is ten months today.  She's moving into toddlerhood and out of babyness...boo hoo....She's starting to have her own little will and get angry when things don't go her way.  She's realized she can make us laugh.  She loves watching little kids and squeals with delight.  Stroller rides are a favorite and also nice for a little snooze at times.  Cheerios are another favorite {she's a great eater, just not a good drinker}.  Sleeping through the night is almost an everyday occurrence {PTL!}!  Her sleeping postions are always quite amusing...you never know how you will find her.  She's incredibly curious and loves getting into things {empty boxes, laundry baskets, bags, etc is highly entertaining}.  If a cellphone or computer are somewhere near her, she doesn't waste any time getting to them.  She has so much energy.  Naps are kept short, often a half hour, if I'm lucky an hour.  I'm so thankful for this sweet, little, energy bundle.  I look forwa

Welcoming strangers into my home

For 16 weeks now, we have had a young refugee couple from Syria living with us. They have been married a little over a year and for the majority of that time have been separated from each other, since he made the journey to Austria alone and got everything in order so that she could come legally.  Let me backtrack a bit and tell you how it all started. As the refugee crisis really started to explode here, facebook was buzzing with articles, videos, pictures, etc. of the situation. I read a lot. I saw a lot. I was moved. I was troubled. But what could I do? I had a three year old and one year old at home.  ... I could teach some German. But when?   ... I could donate clothes and other items that were needed. But that didn't seem like enough. ... I could give money. But I wanted something more tangible.  I would put my youngest to bed and during those days, she needed lots of TLC in order to get to sleep. I kept thinking about the refugees and how they didn't
