A lot of changes going on

Oh my Im totally slacking on updating this blog.  So since our last post John and I found out we are having a baby girl and we bought our 1st house in Calera.  Big adjustments....

On Nov 10th we went in for our 18 week appointment and everything looked perfect which we were overjoyed about.  We also found out that our sweet lil baby is a lil girl which I cried and cried over.  Ive never been so happy to hear those words its a girl.  John said I knew it!!  He swears he had a dream about her and just knew in his heart is was a girl and I told him you should have known it was Peyton.  The story of Peyton goes waaayyy back.  When John and I started dating in 2005 he says he knew he would marry me one day and of course 1 of those days he asked me about kids names and I told him if I had a girl I wanted to name her Peyton but didnt know what her middle name would be.  A few weeks later on a Sunday I was suppose to go with John to Oak Grove to meet his grandparents before we left I called into work at CVS and told him if he didnt mind I would have to schedule a raincheck.  I was almost done with my shift when John called to let me know they were rushing his grandmother to the hospital.  She passed away on Wednesday and so I never got to meet her, but at her funeral I noticed her middle name was Alice and fell in love with it.  I knew immediately that would be her middle name.  So after it was all over that night John came back to my house and I told him I knew what Peyton's middle name would be and I told him Alice.  He looked right at me and said you know I love you right?  That was the very 1st time John had told me loved me, and so for all of you who asked where did you come up with Peyton Alice this is where are sweet babies name came from =)

My sister and her family came in for our reveal party and it was just a blessing to have her here for our special time.  They all stayed with us and John and I loved every minute of it.  I got to meet my sweet lil nephew Ezra who is just as precious as his sister Hollis.  We went to see Santa, we stayed up late and talked/watched tv, we ate at some of their fav places, we went shopping and had a great time!!  I just wished they lived closer =(

On another side note John and I bought our 1st house in Calera.  Its a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car garage brick home and we are loving it!!  It was a long process to get to this point but we know we could not have done it without the good Lord above.  We know we are so blessed and cant wait to see what the future has in store for us!  We closed on Wednesday and we moved in Wednesday night...yes we know we are crazy but we were just to excited!!  I will post pictures soon of all the fun that has been going on.  John spend all last night painting Peyton's room.  He is going to be the best daddy in the world and he loves his lil girl so much it makes me tear up just thinking about him with her. 

So this is a quick update of the last few months.  I go to my next doctor's appointment on Thursday so hopefully I will be able to update on what our lil girl is doing now and let you all know sooner than later
