So it seems that I do in fact have to give most of the money back to the lender . . . which I think is stupid, but God's grace smiles upon us because once again Jason's parents stepped in and are saving the day! They paid for Xander to be born when refinancing the house a few years back and now they have to sacrifice and cash in their stocks to pay the midwives so that I can have the baby at home and under water like I did with Xander. I tell you what, these parents should win a medal or an award for the sacrifice and assistance that they provide. They always say things will be fine and they provide for us in so many ways and for so long now. They never complain or ask for repayment . . . they are the only models of Christ directly in our lives that we have. Jason's father, John, went and got another job (even though he just retired last fall) so that I wouldn't have to go back to work and could stay home with Xander and take it easy during this pregnancy. There are times when I think it'd be easier for everyone if I went back to work, but God has again shown me that it is not in my cards. Everytime I apply for work I get interviews, but don't get the job or the job gets pulled off of the table. I even applied at In 'n' Out Burger and didn't get the job!
I had a 2D ultrasound/sonogram today and found out that contrary to popular belief (including my own) we are having another boy :) Though my heart was set on a girl this may mean that we get to try again in the future . . . which I hate to say was my ideal all along anyway (to have 3 kids). However, we'll see how we can handle 2 first. Also, if we do have another and again has the male plumbing I will assume that I am a boy making factory and am not meant to have a daughter. This is all for the future and none of us can really know for sure what the plan is. So, now Jason and I have to agree on a boy name since I already had the girl's name already picked out. I don't know for sure why I am writing this since nobody reads my blog except Jason right now. Oh well, gotta go. Talk to you again soon.

Well baby, I love you and look forward to having another boy. I know we were hoping for a girl so we could make like PokeMon and collect them all, but we will see. Thank you for the kind words you have written about my parents.
