Some Pictures...

Countdown!!

Sorry for not updating our blog! We have not had internet at home! Anyway, we are waiting for Baby Patterson to come and it is SO close! Mama is feeling good, Gunnar is so excited for brother, Rowen is starting to realize there may be something to this whole baby thing they keep talking about!, and Dada just wants to meet his son! He continually encourages Mama to eat "labor inducing foods" and take big long walks! :) He loves his little man so much already! We will update you through, texts, FB, and/or email, so keep checking back!

God is Still God, and God is Still Good

After watching this video(s), I felt so compelled to share. True beauty is on display here. Watch both videos. Be forewarned, if you are pregnant or female, you will cry.

97 Days...

Well 97 days to go, give or take a few. I remember that once I reached the below 100 mark, each baby came fast. So I guess that's where I am again. Here is what needs to be accomplished before then:
*We need to move.
*We need to be settled and organized before he comes. (or really a month before.)
*We need to be pre-registered at St. Joseph's.
*I need to get out those cute little clothes and wash them again.
*I need to finish out Bible Study...10 more weeks or so.
*I need to tell Rowen that there is an actual baby in me and he will have to help mama when he comes out. :)
*I think there is more.....can't quite think beyond that, so I guess that's all that actually will get done.

Eggplant?

So, I was just thinking that my baby is the size of an eggplant....according to "thebump.com." My question is: Why does my tummy look like it has a women's size basketball in it? ( Please laugh. I am.)

Baby Boy #3~ Canon(?) Emmett

Here are the cute pictures we have of our little man. He was only about 19 weeks complete, that was 6 weeks ago. Kyle is leaning more toward having his name be Canon, so that is why I put Canon in the title....Blessings to you all. *Please note his strong, yet skinny little legs. They are my favorite ones. He looks very similar to his brothers in his profile picture. (Big surprise!) I am looking forward to meeting him more and more each day! I love him so much already!

Fear God....

Our friend Travis spoke to our High School students this past Lord's Day evening at Youth group. He did a great job and provoked me to read Ecclesiates again. There are many great verses to meditate on, however, I can't quite get the last few out of my mind. I think that these verses sum up my whole desire for existence and could easily be my last words to anyone i encounter. I think this one will be the first framed in our home.

Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into judgement, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil. Eccl. 12:13-14

And all God's people said AMEN!

Happy Birthday Priest!

It's Kyle's birthday today! Happy Birthday to my kind, patient, humble, handsome, loving, funny, God-exalting husband. I am particularly thankful for his "priest- like" qualities. Although, biblically Christ is our High Priest, Kyle has been appointed priest of our home and, sorry ladies, I have the best one around. He is judicial, sensitive, understanding, and constantly putting me in my place (which if we all admit the truth, we need that as wives! ;) ). Not only am I thankful for Kyle for all of his godly traits, I am thankful he actually called my pastor and dad after our first date as I so heartily demanded! Not many men do that, which is particularly why I could so easily love him. Love you my sweet Kyle! Forever and always! Happy Birthday to my outstanding and exemplary husband!

It's A Little Late

SO....most or all of you know that we are having a boy! Surprise! :)
I haven't updated lately, mostly just on FB, so I keep pluggin along and do my best!

TOP NAMES:
Canon Emmett
Levi Emmett

Dada and Gunnar call him Canon, so Mama may have to concede. :)

Love to All! Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas season.
