100th post!

This is my 100th post! I am not very good about posting on here when I am not pregnant ha! I post monthly on Brody's blog so I can look back and see all his changes, but I just forget to on here.

Life with the Webster's has been great! It has been busy as most falls are. We found out the first week of school that we were expecting baby #2! We are very excited and cannot wait to watch Brody with a little sibling. We will possibly find out next week if it is a boy or girl! We are super excited.

I have been feel pretty good lately and so far things are going well. You can look up my weekly updates on the baby to see all the details. People ask a lot how I am feeling and I appreciate that so much so I try to keep it updated. They also ask us a few other questions a lot so I will answer them here for ya in case you are wondering.

1) Do you want a boy or girl?
I would love a little girl. I am very girly so I would love to have a little girl to share that with and for Aaron to have his Daddy's girl. However, I LOVE having my son Brody and he is so fun. I think a little brother for him to play with close in age would be a blast. So really, I guess I am leaning more towards girl since I don't have one, but I will be so happy and blessed with either! We are just thankful the Lord blessed us with another and we honestly just want it to be healthy!

2) Are you staying home next year?
As much as I would love to, no I am not. I get this question a lot. I don't mind this question. In Bentonville, that is the common thing for mom's to do. There are so many stay at home mom's here. It does sting a little answering "No" because I really want to stay home or even work from home. I would love my days with my kids at home, or even part-time at home! Every ounce of me longs for that. However, realistically, in my families situation that is not a possibility. However, I trust God and His plan for our family and my life. He knows my desires as I express them quite often to Him. :) All I can do is trust that He hears me and if He doesn't open the door to do that, then His plan is different and there is a reason for it. And I am okay with that.

Things with the youth are going GREAT! Aaron and I both love working with them. It is his job but I love volunteering! Those kids mean so much to us and we are so thankful and blessed that we get to lead them. I support Aaron 110% and will always and love helping any way possible. We are so thankful and blessed that God called us to Bentonville. We really feel like this is exactly where He wants us and we are so so happy here. It is a perfect match for our little family.

Brody is doing great. He is loving school and he is learning so much. Everyday I feel like he is saying something new!!! he is talking up a storm and playing and just enjoying life. He loves being outside the most which is hard right now with rainy days and cold days. Anyone have ideas of indoor activities for a 2 year old?! I really think he will be such a great big brother!!! We will start potty training and move him to a big bed after Christmas - probably not all at the same time! :)

We feel so very blessed to have each other, our community, and everything the Lord has blessed us with. We know we are very fortunate. We choose to praise Him daily for his blessings and seek out his best for us!
