Leadership retreat

I am currently in Pennsylvania at a Leadership Retreat for youth leaders.
It is sponsered by BRYDGES. So far tonight is just a general board meeting
and planning committee meeting that my wife has to attend because she sits
on the board. I hope to take from this a lot of ideas to help with
building up the youth of my church. It still doesn't make sense to me why
our church doesn't want to be a part of it, but the movement goes on.

The picture is just because she is cute.

We are at the hospital now. Glenda has been here since about 5:00. Looks
like she is goinh through preterm labor. We are not sure what caused it so
they have her hooked up to an IV because she is slightly dehydrated. They
also gave her two shots of terbutaline, so it is now a waiting game.

Changes to the Apartment.

So we have started with the Apartment reconstruction. As you can see in the pictures below we have taken down the wall, reran the electricity and installed a double door from the bedroom to the living room

We are at the doctors for an anatomy scan. So far the news is good. The
fluid on the babies brain has gone down into the normal range and it is
looking real good. I want to thank everyone for their prayers, Lord knows
we needed it. Keep us in your prayers we have less than 100 days to go.

Jamaica Vacation

We just got back from the Burnett Family Reunion in Negril Jamaica. It was an awesome trip. We had great time and learned so much about home. Pictures will be posted soon.

Changes to be made.

Hello again. The wife and I decided to instead of looking for a new apartment so that we can have a baby room ( 2 bedroom apt.). We are going to maximize the area we currently have. We have a 1 bedroom apartment. A friend of ours drew up a map of the changes we can possible make. God is on our side and I was able to get the approval from our landlord to take over another room that is adjacent to our apartment. Now because of the layout (I will post a floor plan soon) We are planning to knock down the walls between the rooms and convert what would be a small 2 bedroom apartment into a larger 1 bedroom with a space for a baby nook. That way we will get more space to expand to make it more comfortable and add to the value of the area.
will update when we start the changes for now we are focusing on de-cluttering ( OH BOY)

What the hell?

Ok we went to the Doc last week thurs. Found out that my wife is really 8 weeks so that pushes the due date further out to Dec. 5. I also heard the heartbeat of my child that was cool, so far my wife has been sic as hell, all her senses are heightened so she can smell everything makes her nauseous and she sleep all the time now. I knew the first trimester was going to be tough but I just never imagined it would be like this. This is just another reason why I'm glad I'm a man, thank God. But all in all I'm trying to be as helpful as possible so she can be comfortable.
