Fun Times

We have been busy the past couple of weekends, so we need to get you caught up!

First, last weekend we where given Arkansas Traveler Baseball Tickets from an ABF Sales rep so we decided to take advantage! We drove in to Little Rock on Saturday afternoon and headed to the ball field. Lance joined us and we had a blast! We had a great dinner at the ball field restaurant (where I got a MUCH needed fried pickle fix). We watched a great game (against the Northwest Arkansas Naturals) all included with the manager getting kicked out of the game! We then spent the night with Lance (who selflessly gave up his bed! What a great Brother!!).

Here are some pics:

This weekend, we had a FUN "baby" weekend. We started in Fort Smith and took a trip around Northwest Arkansas checking out all different styles, colors, materials, etc of cribs! Yes, cribs! We are quite excited about Baby C and decided it was a good time to start looking. We have found what we like, so we are now deciding to get it now (it takes 6-12 weeks) or wait until (maybe) a sale happens! We will keep you posted! Saturday night we met up with Jennifer, Jason, and Riley for an outing to PF Chang's and (Riley & I's favorite) Cold Stone Creamery! Ben and I had a great time and made a promise to each other that when we come back from NW Arkansas, we are either leaving before the sun goes down, or we are staying the night. Let's just say, we say at least 10 deer, and the scariest, a buck with BIG horns just hanging out in the median!

Energy has been my biggest challenge during these 13 weeks, so today I got ready for church and then was promptly told to go get back in bed.....seems I didn't look well. After throwing a fit, I finally conceded. Ben made me sleep to make up for Saturday, and we caught some of Brother Dale's message on TV. We missed going to church and pray that next weekend we will not work so hard on Saturday!

Hope everyone has a wonderful week.

Strong Heartbeat

I had an impromptu doctor's appointment today. Everything is fine, but had to get something checked out to be sure!
After they ran some lab work, they told me the doctor wanted to see me. Now, I didn't think this trip was that important because they where "squeezing" me in and I was just seeing the nurse, so I told Ben there was no need to come.
Well, guess what?!?! I got to hear a strong heartbeat! The doctor was just wanting to check on everything and I was able to hear Baby C beating strong! It was amazing!
Ben is EXTREMELY jealous, but there was no way I was telling that doctor that I was going to wait!
Thanks for all your prayers and support!

So Sleepy.....

For all the women out there....is there any miracles that can make the sleepiness go away during pregnancy?
