Cute friend and a baby

I am not sure if I have made the announcement on the blog, but I currently have a little more time on my hands. I moved from working full time to as needed at work so that I can focus on trying to find another job as quickly as possible and have more availability. I was feeling very overwhelmed and was in major need for a quick retreat and some time away from the house and Sally suggested we meet up at Commerce.

Commerce has some outlets and places to eat, but the best part is that is about 1 hour for both Sally and myself and makes for an easy day trip. So, Sally and her sweet baby Daye came and we all spent some time together. We ate and browsed and found so many cute, cute outfits for Daye. We only bought 2 outfits though, and Sally was experiencing some serious buyer's remorse even thought she only spent 16.00. So, I had to talk her through it and she ended up keeping the cutest tutu for Daye that I have ever seen in my entire life. Here is a picture of the doll baby in it:
I mean, seriously?? How precious??



It was great just to spend time with these two precious friends. I only have pictures of Daye and myself...to bad I didn't get any of mama and baby. I also didn't have my camera so the ones featured are from Sal's blog or from my phone.

I could not believe how much bigger Daye is getting!! It is so amazing to watch this sweet girl grow and mature. She is following people with her eyes and grasping and is such a wiggle worm. At one point during lunch, we looked up and Daye had almost done a complete turn over while in the car seat (not buckled in)....I am sure that takes some extreme strength and talent. It was fun to be able to spend some good time together and it was really good for my heart to be with them for a little while.

Thanks, girls for making the trip.  It was great!! Love y'all!!

10 things...

I am such a copy-cat today, but I love this idea! My favorite, Beth Moore, started this on her blog,  and then I noticed my girls, Alyssa and Kathyrn did it on their blogs too. I am learning so many new things about people and, naturally, I need to do it now! Here are the directions: What are 10 things - right off the top of your head - that we would only know about you if we knew you really well? 10 random things ranging anywhere on your personal map that make you a tad distinctive? Or just plain weird? Think quickly. Don't go for deep. Go for quirky. Don't try to put them in any kind of order and don't make them long. Just start typing. Since this is the Reese blog, I will attempt to do it for both of Ryan and myself.... Anna: 1. I hate to shave. Freshman year of college, I only shaved once a week and my friends and people I worked with tried to straighten me out with weekly "armpit checks"...sick, but true. 2. I love zits, abscesses, blood blisters---an...

Miracle!!

Ryan and I are so so thankful and excited to make the announcement that we are having a baby! Right now, I have just finished up the first trimester. The baby is almost 15 weeks old. We actually get to find out the gender in a couple of weeks, which is so exciting! It has been such a wonderful time. The Lord has truly blessed us with this miracle. Through this process, the thing that I have been thinking the most of in my heart is that the Lord is good. I don't know why this truth is sometimes hard for me to soak in. Life is hard and trials happen- this is so true and the trials do not make God any less good. However, sometimes, the Lord just gives to His children. I find it so crazy that I am resistant to believe this at times, but I always look at the toughest or hardest outcome in a situation and assume that it will happen. However, through this, I have been reminded that although the Lord allows hard things to happen at times to shape and define us, He does good things a...

Praises!!!!

I found out this morning that I passed the board exam! I am beyond thankful for this blessing. All the time I was studying I was in a cloud of doubt...wondering if the PA profession was right for me, what would I do if I failed, how was I ever going to get through it? But, this process brought me to my knees in new ways. I prayed each day for His strength to bring His work to completion. This was the verse that I would repeat throughout the days of studying and it is so special to me: "You give me your shield of victory, and your right hand sustains me; you stoop down to make me great." -Psalm 18:35 The Lord answers prayer. This small prayer about helping give me success with the boards to bigger prayers about salvation for our loved ones and healing for those who are sick. We serve a God who hears us....HOW AMAZING!! He stoops down to uphold us in His right hand. Trust in Him today, friends. He IS surely big enough for anything you can lay at His feet. He hears you an...
