Belly Pic

Since Rich was gone for a couple weeks, I took this myself on my phone... not the best quality, but it'll do!! I'll have Rich take some new ones this week!! This picture is my belly at 31 weeks!! Getting a little bigger!!

Forever and a Day...

Wow, I have been a HUGE slacker! So much has gone on since the last time I updated the blog! I'll try to briefly fill everyone in.... May is as follows.... lol....

We went to Cali to visit Rich's fam for Mother's Day! It was going to be a surprise, but didn't really work out that way! It was a nice relaxing weekend with the family! Rich got me a card for my first "Soon-To-Be-A-Mother-Day"! It was really sweet! A side note: Nicole was preggo with Baby Bryce while we were there and had him 3 days later on May 12th! Pictures below!

The next weekend we had our friends Marc and Aubrey's wedding! It was gorgeous!! And quite a long night!! We ended up going out on the strip until about 4am!! OMG!! I was called the "Preggo Trooper" for the night! It was fun, but boy were my feet swollen for the next couples days from all the walking! So worth it to spend time hanging with everyone though!!

The next week/weekend Rich and I went back to see my family in Cincinnati, OH!! It was the first time he had been there and I was really excited for him to see my home town! He loved how green everything was! And from all the rain they had been getting, it really was GREEN!! We even got to enjoy a nice hard rain/thunder storm while we were there!! Since we don't see that much here in Vegas, it was wonderful!! My parent's hosted a family baby shower/BBQ for us while we were in town! (Thanks again Mom and Dad!!) The whole family came down for the day with a couple drop-ins from friends of mine and it was an absolute blast!! Family, food, friends, fun, lots of cornhole competing, and even some really wonderful gifts for little Connor when he arrives! But then... it was time to go back to Vegas... booo

On to Memorial Day Weekend.... we went back down to Cali to spend some more time with Rich's family. His sister and her family left the following weekend to move to Kentucky, so it was nice to spend time with them and see our nephew baby Bryce for the first time, before they left. We had a big family BBQ while we were there and it was a perfect day for it!!

June has been kind of relaxed so far... Rich was driving across the country for about 2 weeks(CA to KY) to help his sis and family move and I was at home, sitting back relaxing with my preggo self... along with getting a bunch of stuff done to the baby's room as a surprise when Rich got back!! The room is getting there!! I'll get pictures up soon!!

I can't believe that we only have about a month and a half left before we get to hold our son!! Time really has moved fast! As for how I've been feeling... pretty good most days!! I've felt the exhaustion kick back in and have had pretty swollen feet everyday, and have definitely noticed that I've been a bit more emotional lately...but I'm hanging in there! I feel Connor all the time now! Sometimes it hurts a little bit, but I love to feel him no matter what!!

We have a busy few weeks as we await his arrival!! Birthdays, my Baby Shower (Woohoo!), our Child Birth Class, and just getting the rest of his room and our house ready for him!! Only 7 more weeks!! OMG AGAIN!!! =)
