35 Weeks

     I can't believe it...we are in our FINAL month of pregnancy!!! How cool is that? Haleigh has been very active but I can definitely tell she is running out of room...poor girl. :-)  Noah still doesn't "quite" understand what all this "baby sister" stuff is about, but we're hoping he isn't TOO jealous when she gets here. I'm still praying that she comes on her own so I don't have to go through with a repeat c-section, but that is all in God's hands and I trust Him 100%. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and has enjoyed this gorgeous weather. 

House Shopping

     My take on it? Not nearly as fun as shopping for shoes....*grin*! So, yeah, Caleb and I have been on the house hunt for 2 months now and I definitely haven't fallen in love yet. :-)  There are houses that I like, and some that I've liked liked, but nothing that makes me go crazy head over heels. Today we are going to look at another house in Salem and I'm praying that I get a good feeling about it...I think I'm starting to get really nervous because Haleigh will be here in less than five weeks and our lease is up in May, soooooo, that kind of puts me on edge. I will continue to trust God and believe with my whole heart He has the perfect home for us...and daily remind myself that patience is worth having! 

Maternity Photos

    My best friend, Becca, did my maternity photos for this pregnancy...and they turned out AWESOME! She is so talented (although she would never admit it, lol) and I am blessed to have her for a friend...and now a photographer. *grin* I will be sharing a few of them on here right now, but will save the majority of them for later. Hope each of you has had an amazing day...enjoy the rest of your weeks!

 

5 Weeks to Go

     That's 35 days...WOW!!! I'm really starting to freak out...I don't even have my hospital bag packed yet...and I've still got to make room for the homemade cradle from Caleb's parents. I really shouldn't be panicking but still, it's hard not to with only several weeks left to go. Anyways...I'll try to chill, lol.
     I am currently at Starbucks enjoying a latte and some peace and quiet. Noah's grandma came over to spend a couple of hours with him this morning so I could get out of the house for a little while. :-)  And let me just say, I truly believe this is the most relaxed I have been in quite a while. God is so good! 
     I hope all of you are having a blessed day!  
    

A Day at the Park

Caleb snapped this shot...I couldn't believe how big I've gotten! :0)

Noah is looking more like his Daddy by the day.

SLIDE!!!

Can't believe we have a toddler on our hands! *GRIN*

Today was so much fun! We decided to try out a new park, called Troutville Town Park today. It was such a neat place to take Noah; they have a walking path, a caboose the kids can climb on, swings, see saws, a merry go round, and basketball and tennis courts. I couldn't believe how many different things there were to do, but we had a great time. Noah enjoyed getting to spend some time with his Aunt Becca and Grandma Johnston, so that was a great addition to the day. We also stopped at Blue Collar Joe's for some doughnuts and coffee...couldn't have imagined a more perfect day to spend with my family on hubby's day off! 

Wonder How Much This Has Happened to Me

Noah Whately 13 Months Old

He thought it was hysterical when his Daddy stood him in the washing machine!

Our busy little Noah Bug!!!

     Can you believe my baby boy is turning 13 months old tomorrow?  Sheesh...I am in shock, lol. And not only is he walking, he is RUNNING. I literally have a toddler on my hands....which is great for his development (Dr. Beazely says he has reached all the milestones for an 18 month old and half of the ones for a 24 month old). I just wish I had more energy to chase him around, lol....but, in a couple of months after I heal from having Haleigh, I will have more energy than I know what to do with, hopefully. I know that shedding these extra 15 pounds will be a huge blessing...and hopefully breastfeeding Haleigh will help drop a few pounds too. Here is another picture of our not so little boy! :-)

Almost 13 Months

Almost 34 Weeks

     I CANNOT believe we have a maximum of 5 weeks to go...and there is a small possibility she will be here in as few as 3!!! :-)  I just can't believe but me and hubby are so looking forward to seeing our beautiful baby girl soon!  Here are a few pictures for this week's belly shots!!!

A New Perspective

Caleb...For All Those Sweet Kisses!
