Built FORD Tough

I have been recently reprimanded by SO many of you for being such a BAD blogger! I’m SORRY!!! (If you’ve ever seen "Simon Birch" [the movie made from the book A prayer for owen meany], picture me running across the bridge screaming this like simon did… HA!).

Anyways, as i’ve said before, i hate posting pics. It takes me a long time because i’m not as computer savvy as i’d like to be… so i hate just writing when i know that pics is what everyone loves.

But i’ll give a quick word update, and will work on posting pics tomorrow. For real.

Since my last post (almost a month ago) i’m not sick anymore. YAY! I actually had the flu (and worked anyways??? not smart…). I had my 16 week appointment and heard the heartbeat again (155 this time). My mommie got to come with me (unexpectedly) which was fun. We were actually going after the appt to look, for the 5th time, a new couch for her. That friday was a good day as the baby is healthy and we finally ended the search and made a purchase on a lovely new sofa!

Thanksgiving was great. We spent the saturday before turkey day in madison w/ jeff’s mom’s side of the family. It was nice, but unfortunately we didnt take pics! I dont really know why… i brought my camera. Then turkey day itself was spent with my fam. and i made my first ever homemade sweet potato casserole which turned out WONDERFULLY… we’ve never had s.p.c. at my family and i dont know why… i LOVE IT!!! And even though my fam was skeptical at first, they all liked it, too! So success…

My aunt and I planned our shopping extravaganza for black friday, found a few good deals and Jeff and I decorated the house Saturday after turkey day. Well, he got out the boxes for me, that counts…right?

The christmas tea at church was the next tuesday and we had a great time fellowshiping (pics were taken and will all be posted). Then last saturday we attended Katie Fowler’s wedding (BEAUTIFUL!!!). Jeff and I went w/ my 2 moms to stone mtn christmas last night (to which we scored free tickets…actually we used a friends season pass and got in free… yes, i feel slightly bad cause it was deceptive…) and we enjoyed all the pretty lights. Again, pics were taken.

Tonight we are off to my work Christmas party at Maggiano’s and should be getting the last pics of the week. I like the dress i got to wear and it sufficiently shows off the "bump".

I’m feeling good, loving feeling the baby move and can’t wait to find out the sex of the baby on CHRISTMAS EVE!!!

Stay tuned for the pics…

P.S. I’ll be 20 weeks tomorrow… thats 5 months people. To compare last year’s happenings with this ones… well, it just goes to show Gods unbeliveable grace and timing. Overwhelmed, I am (as yoda would say).
