27 Weeks

So here I am at 27 WEEKS!! WOW only 13 weeks to go!! I am so ready to meet this little one. He had the hiccups for the first time that I noticed on Wednesday night. It was so funny and so amazing!! I am still feeling pretty good! I have gotten more tired quicker in the evenings this week but other than that still doing great!

I hope that everyone has a great weekend!! TGIF

Baby Will Update

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all had a great weekend! I had the day off yesterday and it was nice, I wish I always had Mondays off!

Well yesterday I had a doctor's appointment and my sugar test. Guess What? I passed!! That was some great news!! The test was not too bad, I was just not wanting to do the 3 hour test so I was so glad when she told me I passed!! Will is doing great! He measured perfectly (a little past 26 weeks) and his heart rate was 155. He was being cute while she was listening......he kept moving so she would have to keep moving to listen, I kept laughing!! Now I go back every 2 weeks. I cannot believe it, it is going by so fast!!

The weekend was fun! Tara and I went shopping on Saturday and got some things for Will and I got my diaper bag! I am so excited! I had to order it, so it should be in soon! That night, Adam and Lyndsi came over and we cooked steak and watched The Hangover (I slept). And then Sunday we went to Church and out to lunch with Alex, Jamie and the boys! It was a nice weekend. Now back to a busy week at work (fun fun...lol)

Have a great week. I did take a belly picture Friday, but I left my camera at home today so I will try to post it tomorrow!

Alabama Game, 25 Weeks, New Years, Baby Name and Christmas...Oh My!

Happy Friday!!!

Well as you can tell by the title of this blog I have a lot to catch up on. It has been a busy week with coming back to work after a long holiday and then with the "snow" and all!!!

Lets just start off by saying ROLL TIDE!! That was a great game last night and I am so super excited that Alabama won. I am very tired today from staying up to watch the game, but it was worth it! I can catch up tomorrow!!!


25 Weeks!! Wow!! I know I say this a lot, I am so bad about posting every week. I will truly try to post every Friday with a weekly picture. Just because I do not post every week does not mean I do not take them, because I do!! So here is today's picture!!

Well at 25 weeks I still feel great. I am still in the 2nd Trimester Honeymoon!!! No complaints!! I will say that I am (knock on wood) having an easy pregnancy!! I hope the next 15 weeks are this good!!! I am sure they will get harder!!

I will say this, my favorite thing in life is feeling him move. In the past week it is amazing how much more active he is and it is the most amazing thing in the world!!!! It lights up my heart so much and you can see it on my face each time he moves. I will remember this for as long as I live!! Last night during the came I think he was practing his kicks, I think we have a little punter in their!! LOL. He moved so much, I think with me being nervous he must have known!

Well for New Years we were in the Smokey Mountains. That is where we have been the last 13 years in a row with my family to celebrate the New Year. We left on the 27th and game back on the 3rd! It was a great trip; however, it was one of the coldest trips I can remember!! We had a great time and I cannot wait to go back next year and take the baby for the first time!! He will love it!!!! I hope we can always keep this tradition up!!

Well I know many of you know that we have named the baby, but I was waiting to post it because his father was giving me a hard time. Chad and I came up with a boy name a few years ago so as soon as we were told that we were having a boy I started calling the baby by his name. Well Chad likes to pick on me so he would never confirm the name, until Christmas Eve... he gave me a confirmation FINALLY, so now we all call the baby his name....William Lawrence Carpenter (we will call him Will). This is a family name. My little brother and my grandfather are William and Chad and his father both have Lawrence as a middle name so we both love this name and calling him Will is great! I just love his name!!!

Christmas was great!! We had Christmas Eve at my parents house and that is always fun. It went really smooth this year and we were on time with the dinner and all (I help my mom cook everything and we usual get behind). Christmas morning Chad family (which included his moms mom and Tom, Brandy (his sister), Sheldon, Maddie, Bella) and my family (which inlcuded my mother and father and brother) and even Tom's children Amanda and Chris all came to our house for breakfast! It was a lot of fun cooking together!!! Then for the rest of the day Chad and I played Wii..... It was so nice and relaxing. We even ate a frozen pizza for dinner. It is funny how our Christmas is so laid back, but next year with Will it will be so different. I cannot wait!!!

Well I think that is all for now. I hope that everyone had a great week. It has been crazy with coming back to work and then the snow. I was hoping for a snow day today but oh well, at least it is Friday. I hope everyone has been safe and will bundle up for the weekend as it is going to be a cold one!!
