OH DANG!!

Today is my Grandma's 88th Birthday...And it's also Bubba's 27th Week of making me FATTER THEN EVER...I should NEVER have taken this picture!! HOLY COW! (Literally!)

(I look like I'm slouched over, cuz Jon said ' Don't stick it out!'....but I totally wasn't!! So I slouched.)

Bubba's Bedroom

Here finally are pictures of the Baby's room.

This is the Dresser that I refinished...It's really big, so all of Bubba's clothes should fit nicely.

It's a little boring in the room right now, but we plan to hang pictures and a quilt on the wall.

(hopefully soon we can finally get closet doors. We took the old ones down when we moved in)

JTP is another year older...the jury's still out on the wiser too part!

For Jon's Birthday, he got his annual card/check from my Mom, which he always refuses to cash...
A flag holder for the flag he brought home which was flown on 9/11...

and a Shadow box for his razor collection:

Maybe I should have gotten him a hair cut instead!!

Chimney Rock

Jon climbed up to Devil's Head...

Our awesome townhouse at Lake Lure

The Gardeners:

Grandfather Mountain

Grandfather Mountain is right off the Blue Ridge Parkway (though we couldn't go on the parkway, due to the ice and snow on the road)
The Mountain's elevation is 5,946 feet. The Mile High Bridge is about 700 feet from the top of the Mountain...The day we went it was VERY COLD and SUPER WINDY!! The bridge is the highest swinging footbridge in America. It's called the Mile High Bridge, because it is suspended more then a mile above sea level. (For someone who is afraid of heights, I did really good to get across it...though Jon said it wasn't swinging, I KNOW it was!!)

Jon's FINALLY home!!!

YEAH!!!

Half way there...

Me and Bubba at 21 weeks.

Del Taco!!

After my Mom and Colin picked me up at the airport, our first stop was to see Gramma...then it was on to get some lunch AKA the real reason I came to Vegas!! DEL TACO BABY!!

Colin likes Del Taco almost as much as I do!! (Don't you love that face?! and he was only drinking lemonade!)

Extreme Shepherding...

My first thought when I saw this video was, 'oh those poor sheep'..then my second thought was, 'geez that's crazy'...see for yourselves:

18 weeks..revised...

We're at 18 weeks now...and Sunday I finally felt Bubba moving around in there!
Here's a picture of the belly right now...

So, a lot of people at Church and Work still don't realize I'm pregnant...Here's my thinking though, 'Do I just look like I'm putting on weight for the winter then?'...Here is another picture...now can you tell I'm pregnant?!

If I stick it out then you can see it's a baby, not just rolls of extra fat.. Thanks for all you people who just thought I was gaining weight at an alarming rate and didn't say anything!
