26 Weeks and 4 Days

I guess it's time for another baby update. I am steadily growing these days. Up until now, I could still wear a lot of my pre-pregnancy shirts. However, that is starting to change.

It is hard to believe that the third trimester is just around the corner! I will admit, Baylee's rapidly approaching due date is a little nervewracking. But mostly I am soo excited that she will be here soon!!

I still feel pretty good most days. I am starting to have more "growing pains" and a little trouble sleeping some nights. But so far it's nothing that I can't deal with. Baylee has started to pack some stronger kicks and punches...but I love it! Anytime I can feel her moving, I know she is okay...so, I am not going to complain about that at all!

The nursery is coming along nicely. We are still waiting on some of our furniture to come in. Once it does, I will definitely post some more pictures!

A Home of Their Own

Since Adam and Ashley got married a little over 4 years ago (I think), they have lived in a small rental house. Well, this summer they made their first big purchase together...a new home to call their own!! Well, not new, but new to them...and it is a beautiful house!!



We went to Henderson a few weeks ago to help them move. Well...Seth helped them move. I was very limited in what I could do...anytime I tried to do anything, I was scolded by my father. :) So, I took some pictures of the day since I couldn't do much else in the way of moving things.


With all the stuff they moved, they really only had one issue....the refrigerator. It took all five of them to get it off the truck and up the stairs. Then....

Would you believe it wouldn't fit through the doors?! Can you see the frustration on Adam's face? They ended up having to take the doors off the refrigerator, but they did finally get it in and working! Whew! I was worn out just watching them!


And can I take just a moment to brag on my wonderful husband? He was such a trooper. He moved boxes and furniture and trucks and trailers...he cleaned baseboards, vacuumed rooms, dusted fans, mopped floors. He did anything and everything he could to help...such a good man! :) (However, those cleaning talents did seem to disappear the second we got back into Huntsville.)

To me, the best part of their new house is the view out the back door.....


We also celebrated my dad's 50th birthday while we were there. You are never too old for a good toy!! We are trying to help him build up his collection before Baylee gets here! :)
