aside from the stress, we are blessed!!

If we take away the stress of finals and promotion board studying we are truly beyond belssed.

We are 22 weeks pregnant, proud parents of a 22 month old and Josh was mentioned in the Stars and Stripes Newpaper. http://www.stripes.com/article.asp?section=104&article=61707
I cant say enough how proud I am of my husband and they way he has totally embraced fatherhood and husbandhood, since being back. He is successful and work and comes right home and aims to please us here as well.
Jacob and Josh could be seen yesterday playing in the mud, well Jacob was playing Josh was digging our veggie garden. Seeing those two together make me so thankful another boy will join our family, they will be the three muskaters!!!

I couldnt help but express my thankfulness today, we have had the opportunity, though being separated from our families to build our own loving and strong family based of the Lord and we are so thankful for this.

Registry

Hello Family and Friends,
So another boy to add to our beautiful family, and i know some of you ahve been wondering if we need anything. I have done up a small baby registry on http://www.target.com/
Type in Jessica Garner, most things we chose are online only but nothing has to be the exact, these are all ideas! Feel free to shop around, i would if i were stateside:)
Just some odds and ends we think we may need to care for Caleb as well as we have been doing for Jacob.
For those of you who love to shop for baby clothes, we are hoping to get use out of Jacobs again but of course all new babies need their own clothes and blankets. I didnt register for any so you are all on your own. we like the typical blues, yellows, and greens.
Calebs room will also be the blue and green turtle theme Jacob had.

Thank u and God bless all our family and friends, we're so blessed you get to share with us in this experience.

IT's a......

BOY!!!!!

Thats right we had our 20 week appt today and we are having a full fleshed boy, he was bareing it all to the camera.

The appt went well, tech didnt see anyhting abnormal, we meet with the dr at the OB clinic for my 22nd week appt.

I know some are interested in seeing the baby bump, so here it is!!!

Does Anyone Still Read This?

J in his bug glasses, His BF Kennedy bought them for him, he puts them and says cool dude, he calls them cool dudes as well.

Not sure if this is checked anymore, i havent done a great job in keeping up with it but here goes.

Jacob is Wonderful, we are actually up in Germany for a few day and he has taken to being afraid of the pool. I guess we'll see what summer brings.

I am officialy half way done with this pregnancy, we find out Monday the 23rd the sex of the baby, assuming it is willing.

Jacob has started to wake up screaming and crying 2-3 times a night, i have read up on nightmare and night terros, i think he is having nightmares, he has to learn to soothe himself back to sleep but here in the Hotle it is difficult because i see his scared face and the tears so i of course pick him up.

Here are a few adorable photos of my little man!!!

My cute little man, cheesin the camera

Not much else to report. we have a Finland trip in the works however Josh has a bunch of upcoming work related trips going on so everything is dependent on those.

His Carnevale Hat, he just loves the little bells!!
