Baby Shower!



I had my first baby shower in Virginia this past Sunday...Thanks to my wonderful mom and sister. Everything was absolutely perfect! The food, the decorations and all the time they put into making everything so great!

27 weeks!



Ella and I are doing great! We went to the doctor yesterday and everything was perfect. She had a strong heart beat and my belly is definetely getting bigger! The doctor gave me the "heads up" that I am 10 weeks from full term, so I need to start getting prepared and getting lots of rest.... I WISH. I don't think I have slept through the night since before Christmas. My body is most definetely getting ready for her arrival and many more sleepless nights.
We had the furniture delivered 2 weeks ago and I have been working trying to get it all set up. My mother-in-law has been working very hard as well on the bedding... she has done a wonderful job!! It is gorgeous!

25 weeks!

Ella Grace has been very active this week. We had a busy day yesterday watching your Daddy run a 10K race in the windy cold weather. The horrible loud noise you were hearing last night was a live band at the Houston Rodeo cook off...I apologize if you are now deaf. I must say little girl you almost had me in tears yesterday at the Rodeo Race because you have been sitting right on my bladder for a few days now and I just couldn't hold it anymore. I had to.... brace yourself, use a port-a-potty (ewwww!!!!) The utter thought of touching the door to one of those makes my stomach turn, much less getting into one! This week was a rough week trying to sleep. I woke up with major heartburn a few nights, have had several charlie horses, and very restless. I guess this is your way of getting me prepared for your arrival!!
