16 weeks.

I have officially reached the 4 month mark. Crazy! In this past month, I have definitely started to feel better, not near as nauseous. I am still feeling tired as I transition back into working full time but it is manageable. I got to hear the heartbeat on Wednesday. It was about 150, which is where it was last time. The doctor left the doppler on there for a while and we heard this big bang noise. It sounded like someone on the other end of the phone blew into the phone. I looked her and said, "what was that?" She just laughed and said the baby is being pretty active in there!! It still feels surreal to me. I am not far enough along to feel any of that movement yet so it is so shocking to hear it. Our next appointment will be the big ultrasound!! We are keeping the date of our appointment a secret :) We have some fun plans up our sleeve! Hopefully we won't deviate from our plan out of pure excitement!! Ha.

Party Weekend.

This weekend we celebrated lots of birthdays! Friday it was my birthday. A wonderful friend at work made me a cake and they sang to me! :) Friday evening we headed to Bryant where we enjoyed a wonderful dinner and cake with my parents and Lindsey. The Friday night party was for both Cory and I since his birthday is Sunday! Saturday, Lindsey and I loaded up and headed to El Dorado to celebrate Bryce's first birthday party. Lindsey volunteered to take Bryce's 1 year old pics and pics at his party. It was so fun to visit with Scott and see how BIG Bryce's has gotten!! He is so social and loves to smile and laugh. And he could not look anymore like his sweet mother! Lindsey took some great pics of Bryce in downtown El Do. You should check them out here. Here is a picture of us with the birthday boy!



We had a FULL day Saturday running around town visiting friends and family that live there. We were exhausted! Sunday (today) is Cory's birthday. We headed to church with my parents. For lunch us four met up with Cory's mom to eat lunch at a Sushi Bar/Hibachi Grill (Cory's favorite!). We hung out for the afternoon with both of our families and headed back home this evening. We had such a fun weekend. I love it that Cory and I have birthdays so close to one another! Its fun to celebrate together.

I hope you have a wonderful week.

Tomorrow is the day!


Summer break is over. Tomorrow I return to work. I have had a fantastic summer of fun and relaxation to which I am extremely grateful! I actually feel somewhat ready to get back in the routine of work. I have started to feel a little more like myself lately so I am praying that I continue to feel well. I already got a call today from one of my schools with a situation to take care of tomorrow! It was definitely a reality check that tomorrow is the day! Here's to a fantastic school year.

Happy Birthday Bryce.

Today is Bryce's 1st Birthday!

I know his mom would be so proud of how big he is and how social he is (that is what I hear at least b/c I have not see him in person too often!). I know several of us girls think of Jill often and wish we could just pick up the phone and talk to her. I thought of her so much when I found out I was expecting because she would have one of the first I would have called to share the news. I can just imagine the excitement and encouragement in her voice. It still doesn't seem real that she is no longer with us but o how sweet her days have been at the feet of Jesus. We all miss you so much, Jill.

Check out this picture I stole of Scott and Bryce off Jill's facebook page. Isn't it the sweetest picture of the two of them! He looks so much like his sweet mother. I love that about him.




Hope you have a wonderful 1st birthday Bryce. Enjoy your Razorback Birthday Bash!

12 weeks.

and growing.

Fun Surprises.

Last week, I was given two very fun surprises!

One...........

Lindsey gave me the book "Where the Wild Things Are." It is Baby Cahoun's very first book so it is definitely blog worthy! She wrote the sweetest note inside of it too. Lindsey's sister, Christina, brought it through to me on her way back to Nebraska. That evening the book was broken in well as Lindsey's nephew, Brantley, had me read the book him about three times that evening! Thanks so much Lindsey! We can't wait to read it with our little one.
And my second fun surprise.....



My brother, SIL, nieces and nephew gave me this new fun bag as a early birthday present! I *heart" orange and damask is my favorite pattern. And if those two things aren't enough it is also embroidered! I LOVE anything embroidered. Here I am styling my new purse!


Thanks so much David, Heather, Carter, Summer and Tilly for a super cute bag. I love it and love you guys even more!
