HI BABY!

Easter

Easter this year was chaotic as usual!  We woke up, went to church and then went to my parents house, Jake's Grandma's and then his Mom's house.  Our annual egg hunt was kinda rained out...we did it under a covered garage but that really is not the same as doing it in the yard.  By the end of the night I was exhausted so my wonderful Sister-in-law let Kenzie spend the night with her.  Have I mentioned this lady is a saint?!?  I love Easter, it's always such a fun day spent with people who you love. 

18 Weeks and the Color Run

I'm 18 weeks and my bump finally decided to form!

                                                                       HI BABY

This past weekend Kenzie, Kim, my Mom and I went up to North Carolina to do the Color Run in Winston! It was a blast!!  Mom ditched us as soon as we got there to hang out with her best friend Vanessa but Kenz, Kim and I stayed at a hotel right by the fair grounds that night.  Then the next morning we got up and did our little race.  My cousin Adam (who is my BFF) meet us there and did it with us and of course Carrie was there too. 

 
After the race Kenzie with my aunt Sharon and Uncle Ed for the night so I went home with Carrie. Our pregnant butts literally went to her couches and didn't move til it was time to get some Maxie B's. Best cake and cupcakes ever! Then the next morning we met up at IHop...ate breakfast and then went home so I could spend some time with Lacie for her birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LACIE SIMONE...love your guts!

16 WEEKS

Maternity Clothes:  Nope...I don't even look pregnant...just look like a very tired, unattractive, non-showered lady who doesn't care about what I look like at all!

Strech Marks:  Just the leftovers from Kenzie Lynn (that pregnancy was a 60 pound weight gain...lets pray for everybodys sake that isn't the case this time around)

Sleep:  Depends on the day...I am a stomach sleeper and I'm at that point where its uncomfortable to sleep on my stomach SO sometimes I will wake up because I ended up on my stomach.

Best Moment this Week:  Seeing Kenzie's reaction to finding out she was going to have a little sister! Too Cute
