2nd Trimester!!

I am officially a THIRD of the way through this pregnancy! Wahoo! It feels so good to know that I am done, done, done with the MS of the first. Not only has my morning sickness really gone done, but I am getting my energy back too! Although, my food adversions are still with me (as I suspect they will remain for the rest of the pregnancy)- I cannot stomach the smell or look of chicken or beef. I don't even really like to think about pizza either, which used to be one of my favorite foods.

At the moment, I'm loving orange juice and orange slices, string cheese and decaf coffee. Just can't seem to get enough of 'em!

This week, the baby starts to hear!

We have decided NOT to find out the gender. :-)

And we're decided on either a home-birth or freestanding birth center for the big day. (More info on this later).

And the biggest news of all- Rob had an interview with a church in Illinios yesterday evening. He thinks it went well, but we won't know until the end of the month if they still want to consider him. We are personally holding out for this church, but know that God will put us where we're meant to be. Today is a great day for both us for another reason too, because Rob is officially DONE with college! Life is really starting to look up!
UPDATE- Rob made it to the final round of interviews, but was not selected for this position. We are still looking and praying while he continues to send out resumes to hiring churches. Church hiring procedures are typically much longer and more drawn out than traditional jobs since there is much prayer and deliberation that takes place between different teams within the church. Big thanks to all of you who are currently praying and supporting us during this time, as it can be very stressful and take a while.
