Kyle was offered the Youth and Family Minister position at Northside Church of Christ in Bonham, Texas! We are both so excited, overwhelmed, and pretty nervous! Kyle will begin his position around mid-July. We are waiting to make the big move after Sherri and David's wedding July 3rd! I am so overwhelmed with the GREATNESS of God! Since Kyle and I found out we were pregnant I have been praying that God would provide us the opportunity for me to stay at home with Grace, and all my prayers have been answered! We are going to start our house hunt next week, so please keep praying for doors to open and things to fall exactly into place! <div><br /></div><div>I CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE A HOME AND A NURSERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>Ok, deep breath, and here we GO!!</div>Kyle and Leahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11829617217450105935noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073055741679977126.post-25298841783142861792010-06-17T18:05:00.000-07:002010-06-17T18:19:19.672-07:0030 weeks and 5 days :)<div>Hello Dear Readers of the blog! Well I am approaching my 31st week of pregnancy! I can't believe how fast this whole thing is flying by! I thought when summer hit things would slow down, but not at all! Maybe that's because I haven't slowed down. I went to AR a few weeks ago to see Amy, Pete, and Noah! Noah was so sweet! He was crawling all over the house and the happiest little boy! Anyways, after that I was home for a day and then went to Vegas (see previous post) then came home for another day and went to Bonham, Texas for Kyle's interview! Kyle ROCKED his interview by the way! He is DEFINITELY pursuing the career God created him to do. I was so proud to call him my husband the whole weekend! He is a born Youth Minister! I can't wait to see the amazing things God will do through him! We both feel really good about the interview and could possibly be moving to Bonham in the next few weeks! I am super excited about this because that means....house, nursery, and the opportunity to stay home with Grace for her first year! God has provided for our family so wonderfully! It taught patience along the way, but was well worth the wait. It's amazing the possibilities when you put God in the driver seat. We were asked to return to Bonham tomorrow, Friday, and I have a strong feeling they will offer Kyle the job. Hopefully I am not jumping the gun...but I guess we will know for sure in a few hours! Please be praying for our little family!!</div><div><br /></div><div>Here is a belly pic of my today!

Kyle and I found out we are going to have a daughter! We are both so excited, and good predictors! Haha! We have had a great time taking votes from friends and family. Congrats to all the girl guessers!!<br /><br /><br /><br />I wasn't sure what my emotions would be today because it's all so new, but I have been so excited and anxious I could hardly stand it. I woke up at least 10 times last night thinking it just had to be morning! Kyle was feeling like the whole having a baby thing was very surreal, but says after seeing her moving and knowing her name it's becoming more and more real.<br /><br /><br /><br />Here is a picture of Kyle and I ready and heading to the Doctor!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid45iY_zZwg6lVgOJ5Eo-813EhbMTz9uOldm_sQA3rgtxRJnicKbCeKEuFNrovDne__9uj1T6iXONFwR74gMfG4gt_pTZAXIhxsc2Seot8b4Emz-Mp3dPN_NHbea46flwXU96tShwXyRU/s1600/IMG_0798.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 179px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455669914932171842" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid45iY_zZwg6lVgOJ5Eo-813EhbMTz9uOldm_sQA3rgtxRJnicKbCeKEuFNrovDne__9uj1T6iXONFwR74gMfG4gt_pTZAXIhxsc2Seot8b4Emz-Mp3dPN_NHbea46flwXU96tShwXyRU/s320/IMG_0798.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />A few belly picks at 20 weeks!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKse49TVJyYMPvdl-daX8bv2WIUzicBYnrXMp5v25Zk9VrrEGP-Fb-waTz3GqZcNBm8RcG4RJ9BjyXuSTgIGPO64GdrG7BgJxj5ELzZuHugSsJ6ryEM9yl93padGSuB5IKs_bYhXlOUIc/s1600/IMG_0799.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 179px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455669923102734770" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKse49TVJyYMPvdl-daX8bv2WIUzicBYnrXMp5v25Zk9VrrEGP-Fb-waTz3GqZcNBm8RcG4RJ9BjyXuSTgIGPO64GdrG7BgJxj5ELzZuHugSsJ6ryEM9yl93padGSuB5IKs_bYhXlOUIc/s320/IMG_0799.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV3v_vU52_C37ypd8WAHBBbW7k1bu_472qhn5qUyRqyJjcy3_w-vD5NnbSxeMbtaklPnJ7so9YBfleBlQEQ4f0iS6BiFosvwd7D1cbIWLaRlykbc32DDEoNatZez1RSq_mJ1Pu8o9VAtM/s1600/IMG_0802.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 179px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455669934734864786" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV3v_vU52_C37ypd8WAHBBbW7k1bu_472qhn5qUyRqyJjcy3_w-vD5NnbSxeMbtaklPnJ7so9YBfleBlQEQ4f0iS6BiFosvwd7D1cbIWLaRlykbc32DDEoNatZez1RSq_mJ1Pu8o9VAtM/s320/IMG_0802.jpg" /></a><br /><br />We arrived at the doctor on time, but had to wait about 40 min. before we got called back...longest 40 mins. EVER! When we went back I sat in a reclining chair and in front of us was a BIG flat screen for Kyle and I to watch the baby! It was awesome...technology is amazing! We started the ultrasound immediately and immediately I thought "WOW, that is NOT a gummy bear anymore." She had grown so much since the last ultrasound. It was amazing how much more she looked human! :) The baby was kicking up a storm and moving all around that the lady had to keep searching for her little hands and feet to take a picture! She must have her daddy's energy! We spent a long time looking at the heart and the lady took LOTS of pictures of the heart to make sure everything was perfect. Then came the moment Kyle and I couldn't wait for, and she told us the baby was a girl! Kyle and I grabbed hands and had a smile between us and then laughed and said "We knew it" haha!<br /><br /><br />After the picture taking a genetic counselor came in to talk to Kyle and I about CMT- a neuromuscular disorder that runs in my family and Tetrology of Fallot (the heart condition Noah had). All she said was you have a 50/50 chance for the CMT, but there isn't really anything you can do about it....nothing I didn't already know. She will be perfect either way! :) and that a heart defect was possible, but slim because Noah is not our parents or one of us.<br /><br /><br />Then last but not least the Doctor came in and said the baby was Very healthy. Music to my ears. He took another look at the baby. Confirmed she was a girl. My mom asked "is there no doubt it's a girl?" To which the doctor replied "unless it's a boy with a vagina." HAHAHAHA. I was so caught off guard.

A few nights ago I felt a flutter when I was laying in bed...but thought it might have just been gas. Then the next morning at church I felt a similar flutter in pretty much the same spot. The day after that I felt it again, this time a little higher on my tummy. It's the greatest! Even if it is gas...I am calling it the baby!Kyle and Leahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11829617217450105935noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8073055741679977126.post-63699290789587792002010-03-16T13:35:00.001-07:002010-03-16T13:39:57.053-07:00Twins...no NOT the babyI thought this was a funny pic of dad and I!

Well I am finally updating my blog. And I am making a vow to update this blog on Thursday evenings. Kyle usually works then and I can go to the club house to bum some <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Internet</span>. Please feel free to send me hate mail when I fall behind....thanks Amy.<br /><br /><div><div>On other news, things are blossoming in the Beard family. Kyle is getting ready to graduate! <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">WHOO</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">HOO</span>! Which means family is coming soon and we can't wait. Also on April 2<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">nd</span> we find out if the baby is a boy or a girl! We can't wait. I have started having so many dreams about the baby...in those it's usually a girl, but we will see!<br /></div><br /><div>At my last Dr.'s appointment we heard the heartbeat. It was a strong 160 <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">bpm</span>. Some people say that means a girl....old <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">wives's</span> tale. Everything was looking good and I had gained 4 <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error">Ibs</span>, which really only made up for the 4 I had lost three weeks before. I am sure I have gained more than that now. My belly is really starting to grow and people around me are seeing it which is really fun. I even had a student ask if she could feel the baby the other day! It was GREAT! I love when people want to rub my belly!<br /></div><div>And here it is at 17 weeks</div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxBeVWKnYacWHZdYzDD3Gl15Hb1OzVt6-aTshNln7d7NdZoApxWCWQ-BhjbGB9iDmUa3aSLjj_Ypt1Tki7jkfzwI73vJXQdCOiB8DZ4sYOJnI0ZvNSSTPcSmpq2JnyE18UoPs08n1v0kM/s1600-h/IMG_0788.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 179px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449329150736818834" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxBeVWKnYacWHZdYzDD3Gl15Hb1OzVt6-aTshNln7d7NdZoApxWCWQ-BhjbGB9iDmUa3aSLjj_Ypt1Tki7jkfzwI73vJXQdCOiB8DZ4sYOJnI0ZvNSSTPcSmpq2JnyE18UoPs08n1v0kM/s320/IMG_0788.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div>See what I mean it's grown.

Oklahoma got a big ice/snow storm which kept me home from school four days plus the weekend. This would have been a nice little vacation had I not been sick the ENTIRE time. haha. I am pretty sure I got Bronchitis again, and my doctor was great and called in an antibiotic. So life is happier now.</div><div>Kyle and I have a doctors appointment next Friday, the 12th, to hear the babies heart beat. We are both so excited! We have seen the heart beating, but it will be so wonderful to hear that perfect sound.</div><div>I am getting anxious to have a belly.

Well with a new baby comes a new blog!! I don't really have a lot of updates right now. We went to the Doctor on Friday and got our first picture of the baby! There is definitely only ONE baby!!! The heart was beating a healthy 167 bpm. Thanks for all the prayers and encouragement as God creates a new member of our new family!<div><br /></div><div>Here is a pick of the belly at nine weeks and two days!</div>Kyle and Leahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11829617217450105935noreply@blogger.com4
