Growing belly & Ordination!




I can't believe how much my body is changing. With most of the clothes I wear you still cannot tell I'm pregnant, but with this 14 week picture taken recently, I definitely do not have a flat tummy anymore!


We visited High Point this weekend to take momma Roland out to eat for her 50th birthday, we all had a great time at Hillybilly Hideaway (except for the random horrible splinter I got in my hand when I first sat down in my chair). I couldn't get that thing out until the next day.


Speaking of the next day - LUKE GOT ORDAINED!! He's now Pastor Luke Roland. We had the most amazing ordination service for him, it truely was one of the greatest events of our lives so far. I'm so proud to be a Pastor's wife now!


Things are going well on our side of the hill!

Heaven on Earth 2008



This was my 4th year and Luke's 5th year going to the Church Conference in Ohio. The event is held in Maumee, which is a town just outside of Toledo. We have driven the 10 hour trip every year. It's such a beautiful drive this time of the year and I did better than I thought for being pregnant. This year we rode with a caravan of others from our church. The messages, music and fellowship was awesome.

finally 12 WEEKS!!





I'm so excited to finally be 12 weeks pregnant. I am never nauseous anymore, but still a little tired.
We had our first Ultrasound this week on 10/2/08 and it really hit us both hard - there is a real human being living inside of me, how amazing! When we went to the Dr. it was moving so much. It's neat to see it move and still not be able to feel it move, that will come soon enough I'm sure. I'm finally starting to grow out of my clothes. A rubber band on most of the pants gives more room for now - let's just hope the rubber band doesn't break. The baby is about the size of this little pumpkin here!
