My First Daffodils

This is for Nanny and & Chay.

I am the only person in my 80 lot subdivision that planted Daffodils. They are so pretty and everyone on the street loves them. Everytime I look at them they just make me smile.

Also, my Nanny's daylilies are starting to pop up! (Click on pic to enlarge)

8 Months Today

Hi! We hope you enjoyed our video.
(It was bedtime so please don't pay any attention to my appearance! Thanks.)

I am 8 months today. I can't believe it. Where has the time gone?

We have completed our child birthing classes. I have gained 27 pounds and my belly measures about 39 inches at my button. Taylor is about 4 pounds and 17 inches tall. She is so big and moves all the time. It is crazy because now I can feel her arms and legs, not just little bumps and flutters. The time has passed so quickly and I am sure that has a lot to do with the fact that I have had a relatively easy, symptom free pregnancy. Thank You God!!!

We have everything ready for her to come home with a few tiny exceptions. The glider won't be here until May 1st. We still need to get some curtains put up. Also, we need a small lamp table to set beside my glider. I'd like to get a few shelves put above her dresser so that we can put her books there. But, as far as the diapers, wipes, and all the other necessities goes...we have that. I will pack my hospital back this weekend.

IT'S GETTING CLOSE!!!

28 Weeks

I will be 28 weeks tomorrow and I am officially in my 3rd trimester. I have finally gotten some of my severe pregnancy symptoms taken care of with a large bottle of Nexium, the purple pill. I didn't want to take any meds at all while pregnant but I was dying. I am much better now.

My NC neighbors had a baby shower for us this past Saturday. Between this shower and the one in Mississippi, Taylor has gotten some GREAT things. Thank you SO VERY MUCH to everyone who has given Taylor gifts. She really appreciates them... and so do Mom & Dad!

So, I really liked this cute pic taken at my NC shower. To me it really sums how happy I am to be a mom.
