Happy 4th of July!

We had a great weekend celebrating with friends and family!  The weather was amazing all weekend - made me fall to hurry up and get here!  

Last beach trip before we welcome Hazel

We squeezed in one final beach trip before we welcome Hazel...  3 weeks and 4 days away (but who's counting)?!?!?!  

The weather was great compared to last years trip!  We spent everyday on the beach and by the pool.

Fun times in June

We are more than halfway through the month and enjoying life with just one!  It's been busy, but fun and relaxing at the same time.  We decided to only have Ellie in school 2 days a week this summer.  It's been a great schedule for everyone as the orher days are filled with play dates, camps, and lots of pool time!  We are hoping to head the beach one more time - doctor permitting - before Hazel arrives in 40 days...  Other than low blood pressure and a few fainting spells this pregnancy has been pretty good!

We signed Ellie up for TBall this fall...  She starts in August - not sure what we are thinking with a newborn but we will figure it out!

And a surprise dinner for Hazel's arrival!  Such sweet, amazing friends I have here in Marietta!  They have gone above and beyond to spoil us for Hazel!

I have been bad about not writing as much this time with Hazel.  It's been crazy fast as we near the end.  We are so excited and almost ready to meet her!  I just can't wrap my mind around another human in our house just yet...  Ellie is beyond ready and sits in Hazel's room all the time.  We are set for July 29th but we will see if she has other plans like her big sister.  We see a specialist one more time on Monday...  As of this week, I'm measuring 2 weeks ahead of schedule!  That's kind of scary to me...  Praying that this blood pressure stuff corrects itself and we can get past the fairiting mess!

Happy Birthday Sophie!

We celebrated 10 years with our first child. I can't believe she is 10 years old. She was my wedding present from Jay and has been perfect for our family. She is the sweetest lab out there and very gentle with all kids - especially Ellie. She may drive us crazy with her shedding of white hair but we are thankful for the 10 years she's been with us. I hope Hazel is just as happy to hang out with her as Ellie is... I pray she remains in good health and is with us for 10 more!
