Coleman Family

Well nothing too exciting has been happening around here lately. Chad and I have just been working, and trying to figure out a plan for where we are gonna live when our baby girl comes. I dont think we are gonna stay in our duplex that we are in now, cos we wont be able to afford it when I have to stop working for a few months to care for the baby. Also, there is not enough room here, so we need to figure something out fast. We have also been looking at some property with the Rhodes and maybe build two houses next to each other which would be a great plan! Our lease is up in April for the duplex, which actually works out really nice because that gives us about a month to get settled into a new home before the baby is born…. if we get a new place.

So this is something that I have been worrying about alot lately. But Chad always tells me worrying is a sin, and everything will turn out just fine. Which I know it will, God always provides and He will take care of us. So we are just taking it day by day and waiting for our answer.

So, I heard you all went to Fillippis yesterday for Annie’s Birthday dinner. Yes, I was jealous. But I know you guys were thinking of us the whole time. Anyways, have fun tonight eating ice cream and cake.

Happy Birthday Annie Fannie.

Carrie and I want to wish our little buddy a happy birthday, today. I hope you got all the cool presents, dude. I’m sure you did.

Well last night when I was laying in bed, I had my hand over my belly and I felt the baby move! It was so neat. I have been waiting for such a long time to feel our little girl move, but everybody has been telling me, that it feels like butterflies in your stomach. So I have been waiting for that feeling, and I never felt it. But I know this was her moving because I felt movement, and it was pressing against my hand like she was kicking. It was such a great feeling. Once I felt her move, I didnt want to go to sleep, so I laid in bed with my hand over my belly feeling her move!

I took Angela to the airport this morning. We had alot of fun while she was up here. So, Thank You Angela for coming to visit us!!!

We are still trying to decide on a name for our little girl. So far, we have not agreed on a name yet. But here are the runner-ups so far…

Faye, Gracie, Ava Lynn, Emma, and ummm….

We just got in from North Idaho Imaging. Me and Angela made a bet just prior to finding out the gender. If it was a boy, Angie was gonna but us a smoothie. If it was a girl, I was buying the smoothies. And well… I bought the smoothies. Now I just gotta shop around for the perfect shotgun, and have her name engraved on it.

The girls left immediatly to go buy her first outfit. I’m pretty sure it’ll be realtree camo… When they get back, I’ll get the photos off the camera to add here.

Here’s a copy of a email Heath sent out to a few of us.

Hey Everyone, Heath here, just wanted to give you all a lil howdy and say that Im good and Im actually over in Iraq right now….everything is very limited, so I wont get too much contact time, but I will call as soon as I can. Dont worry about me everythings fine, Im trainin pretty long and we’re still in the transition of companies, so this place is pretty packed and will be till about the 18th of this month. I’m usin someone elses computer here so I have limited time here. Just wanted everyone to know I miss you all and cant wait to see everyone again.

Mom n Dad and the fam- I love you guys!
Jame- I am so sorry but I didnt get time to get a letter out becuase we rolled out ALOT sooner than expected…so things have been pretty crazy these last few days.I’ll see what I can do.

Yep, tomorrow we pick up my dear friend Angela from the airport. Yay! She will be visiting with us til the 14th. It will be alot of fun. We have a few County Dance Clubs we want to go to. But it looks like I have to be DD because I can not have fun alchie drinks. But its okay, I will still get out and dance.

It’s 2006!!! I hope everybody had a fun time partying last night. I know there was a wild party going on at my parent’s house, cos we were pretty much talking to them all night.

We had a pertty calm night, the Rhodes came over and we made chicken fajitas and drank sparkling cider. Chad also had a few of his friends come over for a bit, but they were fun cos they were entertaining us and my family on the webcam.
