Wonderful Time with Bella

Yes- you read it right! We did get to see Bella from Wednesday until Sunday, and we had a BLAST! We had tea parties, a slumber party with Grandmomma, a day at Oak Mountain State Park, and a trip to Alabama Adventure. Momma Gigi and Daddy are pretty tired from all that fun, but this is just a taste of the good times we will have with her when she comes for the whole summer.

Bella's favorite place to be... on Daddy's shoulders. This is at the Oak Mountain State Park Petting Zoo.


And one from church...


And from Alabama Adventure... The left is on the children's roller coaster and the right is on the Wild River Gorge with Daddy and Uncle John (Momma Gigi gets to stand in line and take pictures since roller coasters are not exactly recommended during pregnancy)

And I am still working on that 15 week bump picture... But I'm alnost done catching up.

Fourteen Week Belly Pic

Here it is... a week behind. My lovely sister-in-law Bethany took this, and I am working on a 15 week picture now.

Fourteen Weeks and Counting...

How far along? 14 weeks 2 days
Total weight gain/loss: Don't know but going to the doc next week
Maternity clothes? Pretty much everything I wear now is maternity
Stretch marks? No
Sleep: I am still exhausted all day no matter how much I sleep
Best moment this week: Cousins and them rubbing my belly
Movement: Not that I can feel
Food cravings: Anything gummy, gummy bears, gummy jolly ranchers, etc
Gender: Unsure this week
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? Still in, and Erin think it won't pop at all :)
What I miss: Sleeping through the night wihtout having to pee, and oh what I would do for some red wine
What I am looking forward to: the big ultrasound May 27th
Weekly Wisdom: Sleep as much as you can now, because I know we won't sleep much once the baby gets here
Milestones: Telling Bella about the baby

It's been a while I know...

But we have been super busy! Easter last weekend in Atlanta with dad's side of the family and hten Knoxville this weekend with Luke's family for the Orange & White game... I am whipped! I could use a weekend off!

I left my camera in Atlanta last weekend, so I didn't get to post those pictures or take a belly pic. My sweet sister-in-law (I should specifiy Bethany, since I have three) took some pictures last week when she came to visit Bella so I'll post those asap.

And yes, we did get to see Bella! It was wonderful! It had been nearly four months since they moved to Hawaii and since we've seen her. She is so grown up! She met her new cousin Liam and was great with him. We told her about the baby, and she was indifferent. I asked her if she was happy or sad, and she said "I don't know yet." So we'll see...
