Thursday I had a sonogram and found out little Jakob is around 5 lb and 11 oz, which is 2 oz shy of 2 lb more than the last sono 4 weeks ago. So far we have a healthy little boy. I can't wait to hold him and interduce his big sister to him. Rylee seems to be getting excited and you can tell she knows somethings about to change. You know all those little things she knows better then to do well she does them about 20 times a day.
Jeremy is still enjoying his job, though we still miss him so much when he's gone, but he's making a living supporting us and so I smile and send him to work praying for his safety.
That's all for today.

TORNADO TUESDAY
As most of you have heard (nationally) our little town of Westminster was struck by 2 maybe 3 tornadoes Tuesday night. While my family went untouched. (Jeremy and his uncle stood outside and watched it go behind us which is to the west.) We didn't even get wind damage hail or nothing (THANK YOU LORD). But I do want to stop and remember our neighbors who have lost their homes and livilihood. As for the family's of the 3 sent to see Jesus during this horrible storm. My heart and prayers go out for you. The damage is extremely horrible to see. Jeremy and I went driving last night to check on his childhood friends old homes or homes and familys. There was a trailer home on its side, a car wrapped around a tree while the rest of it was in a ditch. All of this in a five mile ratios of us so again I say THANK YOU LORD!!
To start the night off, Jeremy is down laying carpet in the house, I put Rylee to bed and head down there to join him. As I start down I notice lightning to the North of us. Well we are in Texas and it is May so I don't think much of it. Within 10 min. the lightning is so bad Jeremy sends me back up to the house with his truck (there wasn't room for both of us in it and since I am 8 mths pregnent we decided he could run faster.). Then our neighbor gets home and is met by his wife who seemed a little nervise bout the coming storm. So I go get Jeremy in the van and tell him he was coming back up with me. We drive the 2 seconds back up and open the door and you can feel the heat of the storm. About 10 we start watching the weather and they are talking about Anna (not uncommon this time of year) Then they start naming Westminster. Okay now I'm flipping cause not only do the name us they say we have 2 min to take cover. I grab Rylee bring her into the living room and Jeremy and Jerry move the couch out from the wall and set up a makeshift bed for her. Well I just lay her on the couch and am watching with the guys outside and the news. Oh all of this while on the phone with my best friend who's flipping out with me. Jeremy see's the twister behind the house (west) and is talking about seeing routation thinking it's so cool. (Found out yesterday it wasn't so cool it was a tornado on the ground taking out houses.) But at the time the thunder was so loud from the ground lightning that we couldn't tell the difference (these homes are about a 1/4 mile from our house straight through field. 2 miles taking roads not that a twister takes roads.) Then we hear it and know that it's on the ground. The electricity goes out and Jeremy yells to get Ry. I grab her and look outside and the lightning bugs are back out and the rain has started again. So as we calm down we go out to check on the neighbors on our street. About an hour later we realize how serias it is when three different towns send rescue help and helicopters start flying around. About 1:30 we are getting chewed out for not calling anyone because the news is reporting the whole town was demolished. (again driving around yesterday we do live in the only neighborhood that went completely untouched as far as we can tell.
So again I send a quick pray of praise for my family and send my prayers out to our neighbors and friends.

Another week fatter
went to the doctor this morning. They put me on the monitor, I'm still having contractions but there not doing anything as of right now. Blood pressure is fine they are just worried about the contractions. But I did find out that I get the enjoyment of their company every week now until Jakob is born. Oh and I will have another sono on May 25th
