13 Weeks

Yesterday was our first actual prenatal appointment. It, of course, included all the fun blood work and initial exams. We got to hear the baby's heart beat right away. Right at 160 beats per minute. When Dr. Hines went to measure, she thought I was feeling smaller than 13 weeks, so she called for an ultrasound. That was a nice unexpected surprise. Baby measured right on track, so that was great to hear.

One thing I don't have of my other two pregnancies, are pictures of me all through the pregnancy. So, my goal is to take one before each appointment. Maybe then I'll be able to see a change from start to finish.

The kids are already figuring out what their jobs will be. Rylie wants to change the baby's diapers and Walker wants to take care of the baby. As long as they want to help, they are more than welcome! They're also fighting over who's room the baby will sleep in and who gets to feed it in the middle of the night. I don't think that will last long though!!

Birthday Gone By

For various reasons, Walker's birthday pictures never got posted on here! I picked a few of my favorites! It was a cool evening for September, but family and friends made it a very enjoyable evening. It's hard to believe that Walker is already 4. He has changed so much in the past year. We love watching him mature and learn and love that he is all boy!! He definitely brings joy to our lives! We love you Walker Man!!

Home Sweet Home

We had a wonderful weekend. So wonderful, that I forgot to take my camera with me whenever we did something fun!! The memories we made will stay with us though, I'm sure! Our trip to Hwy 20 was interesting to say the least. We ramped some drifts and ruined our license plate, but God kept us safe and we made it without incident.
Friday was spent mostly in the car and checking out a few things up North! By late afternoon, we were in our hotel. Thumper Pond Resort is a beautiful place. We spent the whole weekend in the pool, in the restaurants and hitting up some of our favorite places. This was the first time we have taken the kids with us, so it was fun to show them places that we love! We came home Sunday afternoon and were all glad to be back in our own beds.

We're off...

As of 3 o'clock this morning, we're headed north for the weekend!! A weekend of fun, food, swimming, an all around great time of family togetherness! I promise new posts and new pictures when we return. The road conditions may be interesting, but we're going to take our time! We figure the further north we go, the better they'll be!!

See you all when we get back!

ETA: The alarm was supposed to go off at 2 so we could get up an ready. The kids were up at 1:50 ready to go. Oh Boy, they are excited!
