D's First Vacation

We went to our condo in the North Ga mountains in Clarkesville, GA for a few days during Todd's spring break. It was VERY nice to get away. Mimi and Uncle Blake came up too. It was sooo cold and we even had snow flurries, so we didn't get to do much except for stay in, eat, and play games! D did great . . . he didn't act like he cared that we were away from home.This was a fun mini-vacation but I am SOOO looking forward to summer and going other places!

Weekend in the Mtns

At the Dillard House, yum yum!

Mom carrying our loot from the Dillard House! That was our lunch on Sunday!

Blake and his new friend at the Resort! She was his favorite thing about the trip!

Nanny couldn't keep her pole in the water long enough to catch a fish . . . but, finally!

Blake finally getting the hang of casting!

Nanny putt-putting. She is SOOO competitive!

The guys!

Preggo putt-putting!

Mom and Lynnie

We went up to our condo in Clarkesville, North GA for the weekend. Nanny, Mom, Lynnie, and Blake went with us. We had a great time fishing, picking apples, playing games, putt-putting, and eating of course! Nanny seemed to really enjoy it all, despite being almost 90yrs old, she hung in there with the rest of us. There were 6 steps down to our condo and she was adamant that nobody was going to help her. Eventually she said " I guess I'd better do what ya'll want me to!" and let Todd and Lynnie carry her down each time. She kept saying she didn't need her walking stick and leaving it in the room/car/etc. Now I see where the family's stubborness comes from! I hope I still have spunk like that when I'm 90yrs old! Praise God that we still have her with us to do fun things!

Now it's back to work! Yuck Yuck!

Babymoon at Orange Beach!

Last Thursday after work my knight in shining armour picked me up and we headed off to Orange Beach, AL. We arrived at 2:30am. . . after lots of laughing, talking, and singing loud to keep ourselves awake! We always have so much fun together no matter what the situation, I love my hubby so much!! Friday we spent the day going from the beach to the pool--fighting for shade and running from smokers! YUCK! We've chosen not to smoke at all, but especially around our child; however, the bad decisions other people make can still affect OUR child! That's so horrible and burns me up EVERY time! Why should we have to cater to them...ahhh! Enough on that tangent.
Anyway, Saturday we spent most of the day hanging out, went to the outlet mall and bought lots of stuff for the little man! Came back and swam in the pool. Sunday we headed out to the beach, got everything all set up -- umbrella, chairs, cooler, magazine, etc etc. --- then Todd got mauled by a jellyfish. This was not your normal sting, it literally wrapped itself around his leg. I think he was doing all he could to keep from crying. Bless his heart. I grabbed what I could and followed him up to the room. That was the end of our beach day! We went to the movies and saw The Dark Knight! It was good, a little disturbing, but good. This baby is gonna LOVE action movies or either he was scared to death. . . haha. He was doing flips all over the place! That's the first time I've really felt him move. It was great. Monday we headed out and had another fun trip home, laughing all the way, hahaha!
Fun trip of relaxing and enjoying these last times before baby boy! Pictures to come.
We had time to contemplate a name for this little one. . . introducing. . . .
