JUST FOR FUN!!!

I thought I would share a few pictures from the last couple of days!!! ENJOY!!!This is the pajamas we bought Campbell the day we found out what she was! It was so hard to shop for her this time of year! She won't be here until October, and all the clothes out now are Spring and Summer!!! Celebration dinner at a little Italian Restaurant in New Orleans! Sorry it's so dark.This was on JJ and Big Daddy's kitchen table for Campbell when I got home!These are the "girl" cookies (up close) JJ made for me!!! They were yummy! The morning Levale and I went for our Ultrasound, she put both a girl cookie and a boy cookie in Mary Carlton's lunch box! She's so creative!!!This was all inside the package!!!This sign was hanging on the front of our house when I pulled up!!! :-) It just makes me SMILE!

Last, here's a belly pic at 16 weeks! This pic doesn't show much, but it's the only one I have that is not bare belly! I will spare you all of those!!! It seems like she is growing more and more each day!!!

It's a PRINCESS

As most of you know, we are thrilled to announce our first born will be a little girl! This past Wednesday Levale and I went to have an ultrasound in New Orleans so we could find out together. We got to see her little busy body moving all in my tummy! She definitely wanted us to know she is a girl, and DID NOT want us to see her face! Our ultra sound tech was so patient and kind, and pointed everything out so we would know what we were looking at! :-) We got LOTS of pictures, got to see her heartbeat, one hand (5 fingers), two feet (10 toes), her legs, back bone, tummy, and her profile! What a MIRACLE!!! She is God's creation, and a product of our love. It is so AMAZING to me. We are so thankful for her, and already love her more than we could EVER imagine. It makes me stop and think, each and everyone of us are God's children, and He loves us even more than we could think of loving her! WOW!!! What an AWESOME God we serve. Levale took this picture of her on the computer. We have some printed out, but I have not had a chance to scan them. I figured this is better than nothing!!! At least you can see her little head, nose and belly!

For as long as I can remember, I have had a special name picked out for my little girl. It has always been important to me to use family names. It just so happened that her middle name is also Levale's great grandmother's name, so it worked out perfectly. Her name will be... CAMPBELL ELIZABETH SPEIGNER. Campbell is my mother's maiden name, and Elizabeth was my first name, (Until I got married and I dropped it instead of Wilson. Then, I swore that I would NEVER call my little girl her middle name!!!:-) ) and also as I mentioned before, Levale's great grandmother's name.

After we found out it is a little Princess!!!

Thank you Lord for blessing us with our miracle! We are so excited, and can't wait to meet our little Miss Campbell!

I will give thanks to the Lord because of His righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High. Psalm 7:17 (NIV)

Praise You In This Storm

Just a quick update...Levale's mom, Betty Sue, went to Emory in Atlanta yesterday for a second opinion. The news was NOT what we wanted to hear as the Dr. confirmed that it is a brain tumor. The good news is they caught it early, and it is still very small. Apparently the tumor is in such a dangerous spot that they are not wanting to attack it quite yet. As long as she has no decreased vision, increased paralysis to the right side, no more extreme headaches, and no seizures, she will not go back until July. Then they will do another MRI and decide treatment from there.
Please keep her in your prayers in the coming months. Pray the Lord will wrap his arms around her, and give her peace and comfort. We know he has a plan, and he is using this to strengthen us all. We praise our good Lord for allowing the Doctor's to catch it so early. We are so thankful for all of our dear friends who have been there this past month. She is so blessed to be a member of a loving church family in Thomasville that continues to lift her up. Thank you for all the prayers. They have definitely been felt. Please keep them coming. We will continue to PRAISE OUR PRECIOUS LORD IN THIS STORM!!!
