25 Weeks

While LJ was in Nashville, I spent the weekend at home and went to a friend's baby shower. My friend Alison and I worked together at Dr. Grice's. She is due Sept 1st and is also having a boy.

Alison got a mobile at her shower that was super cute. So I found it online and it was a combination of all the things I was looking for. I wanted something that played music and not white noise and a light. This fit the bill and it is so cute! It even moves like puppets and later you can take it off the crib and still use it for the music.

Projects!

LJ and I are both working on some projects. We need to be focusing on the baby's room but instead LJ has just about finished the patio and I am knitting a "hooded carrying sack" for the baby.

Wednesday was the latest doctor's appointment - everything is looking great! I feel great and have my next appointment in 4 weeks.

24 weeks

Well on Sunday I was offically 6 months!! It is going by so fast! Still feeling great although I am still self-consious of my stomach. I also do not understand why other people want to touch it? What is the fasination with a pregnant women's belly!

LJ and I got a lot done this weekend. Some how LJ started tilling the back yard for grass (we have known because of the dogs and the fact there wasn't any when we moved in) and we ended up building a patio instead. So, we had some old cemet pavers where the dog house was when we moved in and we reused those, bought some more and whala a patio! I have to say it looks pretty good for a quick and easy "do it yourself" project. LJ finished it after work today before he headed to kickball practice.

Saturday night we headed to York, SC (where we got married) for a wedding. A friend of LJ's from church when he was young got married. I know it was nice for LJ to see some old friends - the reception was at the groom's parents house - out-doors! It was a little warm but cooled off once the sun started to set. The food was great but I was disappointed that we weren't able to stay for cake. That has been my favorite part recently.

Sunday evening LJ and I went to the Carolina v. Virginia Tech Regional Game with a group of friends. Somehow that was the only baseball game I made it to all year. We ended up picking up KFC and tailgating for an hour or so before the game. I don't know if I have ever eaten at KFC - like actually picking up a meal from there. Yum! Definitly good pregnancy food. Especially since I can't stand grilled chicken. Well Carolina won and we are playing Coastal Carolina this up coming weekend.

Memorial Day Weekend

LJ and I had a pretty low key Memorial Day weekend which was so nice. I have no pictures at 23 weeks but I am definitely showing more and more! Still feeling great and craving Krispy Kreme doughnuts and sourpunch straws from the gas station. Wish I was craving salads!!

Friday LJ was out with friends and I went to see Sex and the City 2 with a group of girls. It was fun to go to the movies even though the movie was nothing award winning it was cute and fun! Saturday we rented canoes with our friends Megan and Will and canoed down the the Saluda river. The weather was actually perfect and almost cool on the water. We made it off just in time to miss the rain. We ended up grilling out and taking it easy Saturday night. Sunday afternoon it rained and killed any outdoor activities. We spent the evening trying out a new resturant, Pearlz, in Columbia for a friends birthday. Monday was more rain and running errands. We are hoping the next holiday weekend will be full of sunshine and outdoor activities!

I am slowly getting registered for my showers, finding a daycare and a pediatrician. I can't believe how fast the time is going.
