Baby Shower Weekend!

This past weekend was so much fun....I had two awesome baby showers and received some wonderful gifts for little Smitty. I am so thankful to everyone who was a part of this weekend and helped make it such a fun and memorable time! We truly cannot thank you enough!

Here are some pics from the Showers..

Today is 36 weeks. Doctor says everything is looking great and smitty is looking like a good size baby! :-/ Hope that means he will come sooner than later???? ;-)

Clayton is coming in town this Friday! Billy and Haley will also be coming, it should be a really fun weekend! As for this week, I am organizing gifts, getting my hospital bag ready! :-) Can't wait for the big day to arrive!! Love to all!

Weekend in Houston

I got back from Houston on Sunday evening. It was so good to see my sis and Billy....and of course little Tripp was SO adorable and funny!
He is such a cute little guy.








He is so short that he can stand up under Owen without touching him. LOL

Anyway, Houston was a lot of fun, we went swimming, found Haley's bridesmaid dresses, went to Kristi's going away party and just hung out and had a good time! I don't think I'll be making it back down there anytime soon but Hay is coming to Pville soon so I'm happy about that!

Clayton is also going to come in town soon! We didn't think he was going to make it back for another trip before baby comes but thankfully he is!! I miss him so much.

As for now, I have 34 days until my due date and I am taking it easy and trying to get organized and get my bags packed for the hospital. I feel so unprepared! :-/ I know everything will work out, just getting nervous!!!!

Love to all!

How great is our God

Trying to wrap my head around creation and our existence is absolutely crazy. As I am approaching my due date, I have many thoughts, worries, fears and questions that I know will just have to be answered in time. The only thing I know to do right now is keep my thoughts positive and remember that God is in TOTAL control of my life.

Carolyn (Clayton's mom) shared this video with us last year and I can't help but think of Louie Giglio's wise words and God's greatness in this time of my life. If you have time, here are a few clips from the talk. It truly is incredible! (This is just the last part of the talk, the first half is SO awesome! Especially if you are an atronomy lover! Look it up!)

34 weeks

5 Weeks and 5 days until due date! It's getting so close but I feel like time is ticking by so slooowwww.

Here is most current belly shot..


Went to OB yesterday, everything looks, sounds & feels good. I love all of the midwives and docs at the practice and feel confident in them to deliver our little man. I set up the rest of my appointments up until 40 weeks, weird! I remember going to my 9 weeks appointment! Seems like just yesterday but it was in Feb!

I am going to Houston this weekend to see my sis and Bills. I am excited to get out of Pville for a while and spend time with my sis. I also get to meet the newest addition to our family... my nephew, Tripp Mcleod!!

Here is his picture..



Isn't he a cutie!?!?

I haven't posted anything for a while so I have lots of pictures and other stuff to write about and will be posting more this week. Love to you all and hope you have a blessed week!
