The Farmhouse Project.2

Last week was a big week for our future home sweet home! The entire house was rewired and the plumbing for the upstairs bath got under way! The hubs and I went and picked up the bathroom supplies (with the exception of vanities because I am too picky lol). Drywall will begin this week!! Eeek I can hardly wait to see it after the drywall goes up! 

Such a big help pulling all those carts!

Thought many times that tub/shower was going over board on the way home!! The wind was victous! 

Believe it or not I will be cooking in this kitchen come 2015! And yes folks that's drywall! YAY!!! 

Future home of the downstairs bath and the pantry.

Looking into the kitchen from what will be the playroom.

What will be the living room. 

Contractors will be done the week after next and then its time to get our butts in gear to get the finishes done!!! 

Now for any of you that have ideas on vanities, send them my way! 

Enjoy your night!

Baby B #2

So would you look at that...8 weeks come and gone! One would like to think that things such a pregnancy get easier with each one however, I'm here to tell you that's just not always the case! My first little I often found myself reminding myself that I was even pregnant! Haha nope not with this one!! Perhaps it's the middle of the night nausa for what seems to last HOURS, the horrible back pain, or maybe just maybe it's the fact that I could literally without a doubt fall asleep at any given time or in any given place!! 

All the struggles in the world will be worth it when I am holding that sweet bundle of joy come June! I can't wait to see Sawyer with his baby brother or sister! He says baby now and will kiss my belly and wants to blow raspberries too lol! Sawyer is growing so fast everyday, we are enjoying all the new things he is doing! And trying our best to keep up with him! Having two will sure be a new ball game! 2015 will be a big year for us as we move into our house and bring home another Bohall!

Oh and let me mention the biggest difference between my pregnancy with Sawyer and this baby is my size!! Oh. My. Word! I am as big now with this one as I was with Sawyer at 16 weeks and we are at 8 weeks 6 days! Oh dear! 

Picture to prove it! 

And 16 weeks with Sawyer! Wowah!

Here's to 31 more weeks!

The Farmhouse Project.

The farmhouse renovation began over a week ago and my oh my have things changed in that short amount of time! Today was a great day! My mom and I drove out to take a look at the beams that got put in today and ahhh was I thrilled! Phase 1 of framing, demo, and getting ready for drywall is almost complete! Brock builders is doing an amazing job on the house so far and I can. not. wait to see the finished product! We also stopped by the cabinet place and picked out the cabinets and countertop today! Here are a few pictures of the hot mess so far! Lol! Lookers must keep an open mind! We are still a far way from finished haha!

Our soon to be mudroom/laundry room

Opened up the stair case to see through to the playroom from the kitchen.

The new beam in between the kitchen and dining room...this used to have a wall with a smaller opening leading into a living room.

Upstairs they took down the wall to open up the stairs. To the left of the stairs will be a hallway instead of a wall.

What will be a bathroom😳

The left of this photo used to have a huge chimney that was not being used just in the way! So it came down too!

Chimney remains before the wall was gone upstairs.

I'm not always a Godly wife.

Update: I wrote this blog post over a year ago and today when I put on my Proverbs 31 Wifey shirt I was reminded of this post I wrote so long ago and found myself curious if it were still in my drafts along with all the other post that never got published...well here it is! Even then had stewed over it for days...and now years lol!

Before I begin I have to say I have sat on this post for a few days now worried about the perception those reading may have on my marriage and relationship. Thinking that we were experiencing hardships or trouble within...to which we are not at all, actually we are completely opposite of that! I am posting this not because I am trying to win back my husband or make myself look terrible to the general public but rather to explain that I feel, even when I am a decent wife, there is always room for improvement, just as there is always room for growth in your faith and within your relationship no matter how great things may be between you and your spouse. Ok so here goes nothing...

I am going to let you in on a little secret of mine. Fearful as I type, I know this is the only way I am going to stay true to myself and also stay true to the changes I am making. That being said, here it is...I am not always a very good wife. 

Perhaps I could find a better word other than bad but what better way to explain the cold hard truth than to just throw it out there! 

Now before you go casting stones please let me explain, I love my husband with all my heart, the same exact way I did three (now four) years ago when I said I do at the alter. In no way, shape, or form would I ever want to jepordize the marriage and relationship that we have! I also have never nor will ever cheat on my husband and this doesn't limit itself to also not flirting with others, speaking with opposite sex about matters that open doors to attraction, or wanting attention from the opposite sex. No, none of these things are what make me a bad wife, as I don't partake in any of it. For that matter I don't even put myself in a position for any of those things to happen.

What I am recently realizing is I don't have to be a cheater or liar to be a bad wife....I have found myself not treating my husband with respect and/or not treating him the way God has intended for a wife to treat her husband, that is what makes me a bad wife. In marriage counseling prior to our wedding we learned about all the ways to love your spouse. I took serious note on being a submissive wife and loving my husband unconditionally and submissively. Somehow along the way, as in every way, I have lost track of my submissiveness. I have lost tract of my actions and words and in return I have lost some of that respect that I once showed. Of course this was all unintentional but the fact is, it's happened. I have always wanted to lead a Godly life by living my life in a way that the Lord would want me to and with that I have always wanted to be a Godly wife as I was in the beginning. I intend to set out and acheive my goal of getting back to the wife I once was, before the struggles, before the kids, and before I lost track of myself by showing my husband disrespect. That means I am going to work extra hard to treat Daniel the way God wants me to treat my husband. I know it will be a long road learning how to keep myself in check and not spit out the first thoughts that come to mind when in a disagreement, nor will it be easy to always uphold myself to treating him with the most respect...but I will find a way! No I'm not the perfect wife! But then again I don't have intention to be. I only want to be the wife God intended me to be and the wife that my husband deserves! 

I want to be the wife as Proverbs 31 explains in the bible. I want to be a wife of noble character, I want to bring him good, not harm, I want to speak with wisdom not disrespect, I want faith instruction to speak, and I want to feareth the Lord and to be praised. All these things are just a few of what would paint the picture of a virtuous woman. I will work towards changing myself and my actions today! 

God has blessed me with an amazing man who loves my unconditionally even on my worst days when I'm in my worst mood. 

Today is the day! 

Xoxo- Daniel's wifey:)

Side note: I am still to this day working to improve my submissiveness to my husband and daily work on being the wife that God intended for me to be! Without him I will be nothing more than a Mrs. 

Becoming the Bohall family of FOUR!

The past few months have been filled with a wide variety of emotions from moving to renovations an on to one of the many greatest emotions our family has ever felt...finding out we were once again being granted the privilege of being parents and promoting Sawyer to big brother status!!

Yes! That is right...we are once again PREGNANT! Being that we have been blessed with a beautiful baby boy already it is hard to believe we are again being given yet another blessing so great! We are all beyond excited to welcome a new precious baby boy or girl into our lives come June! Sawyer will be such a loving big brother, he already likes to kiss Mommy's belly and say baby...melts my heart!<3 

We shared the big news with our family and friends by having Sawyer wear his BIG brother t-shirt! Then of course the Facebook announcement after our first doctors appointment where we heard our littles heartbeat for the very first time! Hearing that heartbeat for the first time is like hearing Angels sing from the gates of heaven! Here is his/her first selfie:)

Our announcement...

Here is a picture of Sawyer the night we told most of the family!...of course the pants had already came off lol! 

And....it's positive!!!
