Weekend updates

Here are my recent phone pictures...the camera uploads are coming. For once, I felt like we really did nothing this weekend and we were just caught up. It was so nice! We had a few fun events but really just relaxed. It was much needed especially with the cold rainy weather. Cold I like...rainy can go away! Update from the doctor tomorrow! More to come! However, with the increasing pressure on my back, etc... and the sleepless nights.... this little saying was part of the devotion I read. It is in the back of my mind knowing this is my last pregnancy!!

Remember this moment, my heart whispers. Remember what this feels like! It is common for me to want this part of the pregnancy to pass quickly as I am ready to see this baby... but at the same time, this moment is amazing too! SO I sported today with my leather pregnancy pants because who knows if it is my last. Living it up!

Birthday party with one of Charlee Kate's school friends, Foxx. 

Getting ready for the party

Charlee Kate's first time skating at her cousin Matthews birthday back in November 

Breakfast with Santa on Saturday with our wonderful neighbors The McElroys!

All the kiddos with Santa! 

Cinderella Christmas tea party!

Last night we had the Cinderella christmas tea party at my house. The Cinderella was from the same "group" that did Charlee Kate's Snow White party. She was so good! She never left her character, sang, entertained, served them..it was precious!! All the little girls are from Charlee Kate's school and they all had so much fun! It was priceless! 

I was glad baby Wilson held off so I could be here. I have many pictures from this event but here's a few. 

Harper, Frances, Adalae, Sofia, Charlee Kate, and Anna katheryn 

Best friends!!!!

The party favors! Cinderella shoe cookies and princess crowns 

Still waiting....

Well this post sums up 2 things. One.... I am still waiting on Baby Wilson. The baby has dropped and the doctor says I am "on my way", but still it could be a week or so before this baby did anything and we will induce sometime at the end of next week (probably) if the baby hasn't come on his/her own. Very exciting! I do have the big Cinderella Tea Party at my house Thursday night and Breakfast with Santa on Saturday morning, so I hope I get to take Charlee Kate to both of those. We will see.... more updates to come.

The other thing I am still waiting on, to upload my pictures. It really is an easy process but when I finally sat down the last 2 nights, I forgot about it. So hopefully I will remember tonight. Until then... My sister sent me this article. What a great story and article. Even working with children, I have seen a lot of "hostility" from the Iron bowl, but this puts it in perspective!!!

Roll Tide!

My little girl has had nothing but fun for a solid week! No school, no schedule, just fun! It caught up with her last night! Whew...she needed a routine and a nap back. She still thrives off naps! After almost 13 hrs of sleep and waking up at 9:20 this morning... She was a new child! We had the best day together. I love my one on one time with her : )

Happy thanksgiving!

We have so much to be thankful for! We are definitely blessed beyond measures for our little family, baby Wilson on the way and the long road it took to get baby Wilson, our family and friends, health, being back in Birmingham...and so much more! December holds many many exciting events that we can't wait for! Happy thanksgiving!

So many pictures to upload this weekend so I will have tons to post. Until then, this is all I have. 

Playing outside at her cousins house

This is my child for sure!! She loves dressing and playing with barbies. They were in a "car" here going to a party she said. 

Roll tide!

We took Charlee Kate to the game Saturday even though it was cold! We knew it would be a "glorified scrimmage" but she had fun. It didn't take long after the game for her to take a little nap. 

I am so excited it's thanksgiving week! I don't get too excited about Turkey and dressing but I am excited to see all our family and I always enjoy Black Friday shopping! I haven't missed it since I was probably in 7th grade, but this baby could determine otherwise. Anxious for my dr appt each Monday! I must say...I love the cold cold 20-40 degree weather! It feels like the holidays! 

I am catching up...

It's been a week since I have posted. I have pictures to post, but just haven't gotten them up yet! They are coming! Everything is still going great! I can't believe Thanksgiving is a week away! Charlee Kate is counting down until Thanksgiving! She knows that baby comes next and then Christmas. She is just so excited!!!

 

Doctor visits are good! Everything looks great for the baby! It is in position, but nothing is happening so we just go about our day as we always do : ) I am so excited and ready to meet this baby, but yet... I don't want the pregnancy to end yet. I was this way with Charlee Kate too.... bitter sweet! I have loved being pregnant (minus the vericosity, purple right leg... haha). Other than that... all is great. Will keep the posts coming!

 

One morning picture of Charlee Kate! Will posts more pictures soon!
