Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July everyone! We had a relaxing day with family and friends at Lake Caroline. We had dinner at a friend's house and then watched fireworks on a picnic blanket by the lake with family. I am not good about remembering to take pictures. I did get a picture of Dick and his flag shorts. They were awesome.


The fourth also marks 30 weeks for me. Tomorrow, Dick and I will be spending some time in my classroom getting organized. I can't believe it's already time to start thinking about it. Teachers go back in about a month. I don't know what these next few weeks will entail in terms of my mobility, strength and stamina...so I'm going to get this room ready now. Hope everyone has a safe, happy holiday weekend!!

Birthday/ Mother's Day Gift

I'm a little out of order on this post but I wanted to share with everyone what Dick bought me for my Birthday and Mother's Day...an HD video camera! I love it. So far, the only footage we have is of the dogs. But I have a feeling our main subject is about to change.
ohh, I can't wait to start documenting everything Charlie does!!

Oxford Shower

Charlie and I had our first baby shower in Oxford last weekend. It was really sweet of my friends to make the trip. I received so many great things and I am happy to have lots of experienced moms out there to provide me with what I need. And just so you know, I'll be reaching out to you all for advice a lot I'm sure.
I'm almost 30 weeks and I cannot believe that Charlie will make his debut within that time. (hopefully, exceeding my due date doesn't sound like fun) I LOVE being pregnant. It's everything I hoped and prayed for. That being said, I want to share him with everyone so I don't want to be pregnant forever :)
Here are the pictures I have from the shower. My sister hosted a brunch at her house.
