Birthday Flowers

As always my birthday is when we are busy with school work and trying to finish the semester. James was so sweet and got me these beautiful flowers. He is so good to me. :0) I am 23 and can't believe I met James when I was 18. It's even more crazy that I am going to be a Mom! I guess Riley's present to me is that she hasn't been making me sick. I feel great and can't wait till she gets here. Even James is excited for her and tells me that now he has two girls in his life, but of course I will also be his #1 girl. :0) So sweet, don't be jealous girls!

Being Pregnant = More Stupid

I have to tell everyone how stupid I am...Riley MUST be taking all the oxygen that is supposed to go to my brain! So, I was craving some candy from a local candy store that is HOMEMADE by a sweet little old lady. So, I ordered 4 pieces of milk chocolate covered carmels and 1 slice of just carmel. While the sweet old lady was figuring out how much I owed her she said "Looks like your carrying a bundle." And I replied "Oh, no! I carry this much all the time. This purse holds everything!" She just looked dumb-founded at her friend that was waiting for her to be done. I then said "You were right, this is my second time here, being pregnant I can't get enough of your candy." She then smiled at me and said "That's what I meant when I said it looks like you're carrying a bundle!" So....that's what I mean by being pregnant = more stupid! Oh well, I guess you're supposed to give your child all that you can. :0)

Belly

As requested... here is a belly picture! And no Mom I don't have any make-up on...sorry to disappoint. :0) I do have to say that I don't know what is growing faster, my belly or my ______(well you can fill in the blank just look at the picture).

Riley's Stuff

To James disliking I got crafty & decided to make Riley some flower clips to clip on her headbands. Then a halter tutu for my Mom to take pictures of her in when she is born. And a matching flower clip to put on the headband. James just shook his head saying I was making her "too girly" Oh well, it may be my only girl...gotta make it count right? :0)

Well... IT'S A GIRL!!!

Well I think to everyone's surprise we found out that it is a girl!!! This is a picture of Riley's head. If you look close you can see the eyes and nose. Pretty Crazy! We are both excited for her to come into our family. If it turns out anything like Kristen then God help us all!:)
