It's a cold day in Orlando...


Here's my sweet husband and our little babies



15 weeks and 4 days



Stephen and I woke up this morning and were headed out the door for our daily walk when I realized that the shorts and tank top I had on would not cut it. IT IS FREEZING OUTSIDE. So I came in and put on pants and a sweatshirt, Stephen grabbed a hoodie, and we made it about 4 houses down. It is too cold, we had to come back in. We'll try again later....Well, I've been feeling good all week. I'm still really sleepy but other than that I'm good. Oddly enough my belly looks smaller this week than it did last week. Maybe I was just bloated for a week? Who knows! I'm finally able to be nice to my students which has been a real struggle all year long. I'm telling you that these hormones have thrown me completely out of whack... Yesterday I packed for our trip to Birmingham. Yes, I know we don't leave for another week but I want to be prepared. Besides, I didn't think I would be needing any of my warm clothes down here; little did I know. I am super excited to go up and I really hope that this week just flies by.... Stephen is feeling better about his job. Sears has readjusted their pricing so he has been able to finally make some sales. YAY!!! Other than that I don't think there is anything to update :-) Y'all have a great week and I'll see some of you soon :-)
I finally uploaded new pictures to my photobucket so click on the link to see the latest :-)

It's been a while

14 weeks, 5 days
I haven't updated the blog in a while and mom got on to me this morning so here is an update :-) Last month we spent almost a week in Birmingham. My brother and nephew met us at moms so we got to spend some quality time together. Stephen mainly played golf while we were there but I hung out with mom and Christian and Haven. Christian, Haven, and I painted a few walls in moms house and went to the Mt. Laurel Fall Festival. We had a nice time. We brought mom back home with us and she stayed down here for a week and a half. Mom and I did lots of shopping while she was here and she got to hang out with her sister Rachel also. Stephen and I will be going back to Birmingham in a couple of
weeks for Thanksgiving so I am very excited.

I've been feeling better and better. I have actually noticed that the last few days I actually feel GOOD, which is a feeling I haven't felt in 3 months. I am 14 weeks and 5 days pregnant and my belly has definitely grown. I am still wearing my normal clothes but I did buy a few maternity things last week end just to be prepared :-) I finally told my principle that I am pregnant and she was happy for me. I am thinking that I will probably start my maternity leave at the beginning of April. Spring Break isn't until the week of April 7th so I was hoping to come back for a few days after that just so that I can get paid for the week of spring break. BUT, who knows, we'll just have to see how I feel and how big I am. Who knows if I'll still have the energy (or patience) to deal with the high school kids when I am 8 months pregnant!

Stephen and I went to an air show at NASA today, it was lots of fun. Neither of us have even been to an air show so it was nice to experience that together. It was however COLD outside and I had on shorts and a tank top; as did everyone else there. I stayed huddled under the blanket for the most part trying not to freeze to death.
I guess that's all for now... I'll update again soon :-)
