Our “Carolina Shuffle” took us to see both families again this year for Christmas, and we had such a great time! We packed up the car and headed for Lenoir first. Like every year on our way in to town, we drove by the house with all the holiday inflatables stretching across their front lawn. [...]

Two of my favorite things.
Figured we should take advantage of our baby-free days now while we can, and ended up having a fun, yet somewhat lazy, weekend.

of basketball?
Because I’ve got one right here. I’m just keeping it cozy under my shirt.
It’s hard to imagine getting any bigger, but I still have about 8 weeks to go. That means probably another 8 pounds for me, a few of which will be added on to Ada now that she’s beginning her final growth [...]

Well we had quite the weekend! It was our annual holiday party Saturday night, so the clean house I was so proud of was trashed in no time. Funny how it takes all week to make it perfect, and just a couple hours to make it look like it was never cleaned in the first [...]

I am always amazed at what people will say to me now that I’m clearly pregnant, especially when they’ll walk up to me out of nowhere to make an odd or surprisingly bold statement. Some folks are pretty bad about staring when they see this belly coming (I’m used to it at this point), and [...]

You may have heard of the “Elf on the shelf” tradition before. I just loved this idea when I heard about it, so we are starting it this year (thanks to the nice lady working at Hallmark who gave me 50% off… must have been the belly that won her over), and will have this [...]

Last week our glider came in for Ada’s room, so Doug picked it up and brought it home. I wasn’t much help getting the chair in the house, but I did spot him going up the stairs with it. Not sure what exactly I would have done if he’d fallen along with the chair while [...]
