Another wonderful birthday!

Thanks for all the birthday calls and messages! I had a really fun birthday! Bob and JoAnne game me a really cute maternity outfit. Jack got me some really sweet presents (for those of you who don't know, we are pretty obsessed with out Nintendo Wii) so he got me a few games for it. One is the Wii Fit, which I've been wanting for a while, and the other is a game called Boogie where you sing and dance that we saw Jenny and Brandon play a while ago and it looked way fun. He also got me some movies and a gift card so I can get some long shirts for when my belly gets huge, haha! He got an i-pod touch as a gift from his company for passing 100 sales, but I fell in love with it, so he's getting me one too. I guess it's our last birthdays before the baby comes and he knows next year all I will want is baby stuff, so he made this birthday really special for me. It really has been wonderful. He also got me a cake with baby stuff on it! It was so cute, so here are some pictures! Everyone have a safe weekend!

A healthy baby makes a happy birthday!

Jack and I went to the doctor for our first ultrasound on Tuesday! It was really fun even though I hadn't known what to expect! Right now, I'm 10 1/2 weeks along and the baby is 3.12 cm. We could see the baby's heartbeat and I already can tell how cute it is! Every time the doctor would look around the baby would just wiggle all over! The doctor said "That's good, dance for your mommy!" Anyway, we're about to go eat at Johnny Corrino's for my birthday, but I wanted to post some pictures of our little baby! We love him/her SOOO much already!!

Going to the fair tomorrow!

We are just so excited, I have been telling Jack about the fair for years! And Ginger and the boys are coming with us, what a treat! WE CAN'T WAIT!

Charleston, South Carolina

This past Sunday Jack and I had the opportunity to go to Charleston to visit my Grandaddy David and Granny Pam. It was really fun, we don't get to see them very often so it was nice to be able to visit. I forgot I had my camera until later, so we didn't get any pictures with them :[ They took us to lunch and of course I got shrimp!! (You have to get seafood in Charleston, even though I'm trying to eat less of it lately). Then they showed us around and we got to see the beach. Jack and I love the ocean, hopefully we'll be able to live closer to the coast when we're older, I never realized how much I miss the ocean when I'm in Idaho. It was such a treat for us to spend time with them!! Later Jack and I went downtown and rode around and saw The Russell House, the old city market, and The Battery. Then we took pictures at Rainbow Row, one of my favorite places in Charleston! It was such a fun weekend, we only have a few left out here and I want Jack to see all my favorite Eastern sites before we head home!

CONGRATULATIONS JENNIVE AND DANIEL!

We can't wait to meet Mason! Congratulations! We love y'all!

Another Fun Savannah Weekend

For Labor Day Weekend, Addison came down and stayed with me and Jack! It was SO much fun! We cooked a lot and went swimming and watched movies, it was a really nice, easy-going weekend! Then Sunday, we had a big get together for our friends Kathie and Kasey because they were moving Monday. It was way fun, lots of good food! And Mom, Grandmother, and Grandaddy even showed up to eat with us! They stayed the night and I got to show them downtown Savannah, the River Street and shops, Tybee Lighthouse, and they took me and Addi out to Lady and Son's (Paula Deen's restaurant)!! We went right in and there wasn't even a wait, like it was meant to be. It was delicious (I got shrimp of course)! We brought home food for Jack because he had to work, but he loved it too. I had so much fun with my family, I'm so grateful for the opportunity I've had to be closer to them for the Summer!!

Tybee Lighthouse

Yesterday, Jack and I went to Tybee Lighthouse! Jack really likes lighthouses and we love anything historical, so this was really fun! Though it's been restored and rebuilt, the original Tybee Lighthouse dates back to the mid-1700's. When we got to the top, it was so beautiful to look out over the trees and see the ocean. I'm so glad we've had this opportunity to live near the coast all summer. I love the ocean so much! We also went down by the river and walked around. Yesterday was such a fun day to start off the week!
