What's in a Name?

After much prayer and discussion, we have decided to name our son Matthew Don. The first name means Gift from God and the middle name is Billy's middle name.

We did several projects this weekend to get ready for our sweet boy. Friday, My SIL Teresa came over and helped me take measurements for sewing the nursery bedding. Saturday, Billy installed shelves in what is currently used for a craft room for me and will be shared as a play room with Matthew. Today, we assembled the crib. This is the crib we bought 4 years ago. It means so much for us to be able to use this for our son.

We are so thankful to God for loaning us a child to raise for Him. I'm at 22 weeks and showing more everyday. This next week we'll get an updated tummy pic taken. We still have 18 more weeks to go, but knowing we passed the half way point makes me very excited. We're looking forward to seeing what he looks like and his personality.
