And so it begins...

Welcome to our blog! So, Kyle and I decided it might be time to start a family blog since we are celebrating some happy news! In case you haven't heard, we are expecting a little York in late February. We are ecstatic (and that is quite the understatement) and hope that this time will be a reflection of God's goodness and grace to those around us. It is just amazing to me that the God of the universe would be carefully knitting this sweet baby together (Psalm 139). Wow.

I have had family asking for details on how the pregnancy is going, so here goes! Today began week 14, and I am into the 2nd trimester now. I welcomed it with open arms, and I am already feeling better! What have I been craving this past week? Chicken spaghetti, of all things. I have had it for 4 meals this past week, and I am wanting it again just talking (or typing) about it! This is pretty wild because, as my mom could tell you, I used to not be the chicken spaghetti fan. Now, I can't get enough of the stuff! What will I not touch with a 10 foot pole? Bacon and fried anything...eck!

Our next appointment is in 19 days (not that I'm counting), and we will get to hear the precious heartbeat again. We should find out if it is a little football player (let's hope he gets Kyle's athletic ability vs mine!) or a little ballerina in about 6 and a half weeks. Pregnancy really is flying by, and I am trying to just soak it all in. We greatly appreciate your prayers as we prepare to be parents over the next 6 months.

What else is new? I'll tell you what is on Kyle's mind...college football! :) Less than a week until MSU football kickoff, and we are super excited. Of course, the choir of football sounds is week-long in the York household. Even though my love of football is growing each year, I have a feeling I may be making a few trips to TJ Maxx (by the way, we have a new TJ Maxx in Flowood and I am pumped!!).

Well, I guess that is all for now. Hope everyone has a great, happy football-season-kickoff week!
