Nesting

That is such a bizarre term to me. Nesting It makes me feel like a squirrel or bird.

I've noticed an odd behavior lately. Strange in fact. Out of the ordinary. I mean don't get me wrong, my house doesn't always look like a hurricane strolled on threw it. I've been better, really since I've been home. My dishes get done, I vacuum and dust I even do laundry. I know right - me do laundry  I never said I'm great at putting it away. 

Anyways. The strangeness started eeking in I feel last weekend; when we started the demolition of one of our bathrooms. My constant reminder to my sweet Mr. Bailey that my Momma was not going to shower in that bathroom. Sooooo Construction started. 

Then our of nowhere Monday I did laundry.....and put it away people. I'm talking 6+ loads of laundry. Sorted through it, made a heaping pile of clothes to donate. The thing is, I was using the nursery closet. I moved all my clothes into our bedroom closet. Its tight, especially since Mr. Bailey and I are sharing a closet. DUMB The scary thing is, I have about 3 more laundry baskets of clothes. You would have thought I was going shopping through my already purchased clothes Monday. Sad.

Somehow between laundry, I redecorated the living room. I found a sweet faux oil painting at the D.I. for a smokin' deal! So I hung that, put some new curtains up and rearrange a few things.

Meanwhile, cleaning our bedroom, vacuuming, mopping, dusting and might I add making dinner.

After that real eventful day, today came along and oozed in some more odd behavior. I cleaned and rearranged my linen closet, coat closet and under the sink. 

The thing I find the most freakishly amusing, is I'm enjoying this. Yes, Hi there, its still Me here. I may have gone ape-crazy, but Its still Me...nesting. Waiting patiently for my Darling Little Girl.

Twenty Two and Love

This is roughly the size of B.B.!! She is about 1 Pound!

This is B.B. and Me. 

So the past 22 weeks of my life have been completely evolving. Each week is different. Not only has the past 22 weeks been filled with excitement of this little lady growing right along, but life as well.

Oh, you want to be filled in? Mmmkay. Over cap, reeeeeeal quick.  August 2012, we felt like God was telling me to move, career wise. August/September 2012, we were informed that there might be a position opening up at the church, that I was being considered for.  October 2012, Whooo Baby Bailey announcement. November 2012, I left my position at BPG. Caught up?

Okay then, soooo this week, I was officially offered the position at my church. God's timing couldn't be more perfect. This was something Mr. Bailey and I were not planning on me getting, but were just trying to be faithful to where Jesus has led us thus far. The best part, isn't the fact that it is working for the Lord, that its part time, working at the church, or surrounding myself with the Lord's work. In fact the best part isn't about the position at all. I just wanted to tell ya'll about it!

The best part has been from November forward. Since I've been home, my trust in the Lord has grown exponentially and I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity to get to know Him more. What I feel the most blessed is, that this opportunity has given me eyes to see and ears to hear. I am able to see my husband the way Jesus sees him. How incredible is the love of Jesus for my husband and how beautifully strong is my husband's love of Jesus. The love I have for Mr. Bailey is grater than anything I have ever known.  Knowing my trust and love for Jesus gives me strength and a love for my husband that cannot be explained. I love that man. I am called to be his helpmate in life and his helpmate I will be. My viewpoint on our marriage is that we could have 10 children, -and if I know how much I already love our B.B. and I've not met her yet - I will never love another person as much as I love Mr. Bailey. I am his helpmate first, as much of a challenge this will be I will strive my hardest to always be this first. That man just sends chills down my spine the second he walks into the room. OH BOY!
