Too busy to blog!

Well, I have just not had the time to blog lately. I read up on everyones but just haven't sat down to give it time. Well I have been busy over the last two weeks. I gave a shower and have been to two. Last weekend I went to charleston with some of my girlfriends. Luckily it wasnt rainy and we enjoyed our day on the beach on saturday. I have worked a good bit this past week along with settling up with my classes and studying for exams that are this week :(

Drew was out of town on a mens golf retreat with our church from wed to sat. Oh how I missed him. We have hardly seen each other since I was out of town then worked then he was gone. I'm such a baby when it comes to staying by myself. Well, lets just say I did stay with my parents the first two nights which was nice and reminded of old times. However, friday night after our Sunday School class cookout I decided I was going to wing it since I did have to work on sat. Guess what nobody got me :() I know I know. I always here noises and think someone is trying to get in. I survived though!! I got to get off work early on sat and was home by 4pm. Drew had just got there. He was exhausted and we laid down for a little bit until finally I just had to GET OUT. We had a date and went and ate dinner at Logan's. We also went to Mr.Knickerbocker to find some baby Clemson stuff. Oh its killing me not to know what were having. I want to buy stuff soooooo bad.

Oh speaking of baby. Yeah, we had our first ultrasound about 2 1/2 weeks ago. We got to hear the heartbeat and it was just soooo amazing. How can something that tiny even have a heartbeat. Well, while we were there the decided to change my due date :( It's Dec 5th now. Hopefully this baby will come a little before then.Still I havent been sick. I definitily have been more tired especially after 12 hours of work. Please continue to pray for us and this little one.....

Off to another busy week of work and school. Then three more showers this weekend! Hope everyone has a great week..

Guess who is Pregnant??

This has been a very hard secret to keep ladies for those of you that dont know allready. This my be two much info but I just have to say I must be very fertle!!! We were trying to wait to tell people until I was like 10 weeks but um NO that didnt happen. Its just so hard when your so excited about something.I had my first doctors appt this past friday and everything went great. I go back in about a week to have my first ultrasound. I'm about 7 weeks. Drew is soooo excited. He kisses my belly everyday. I'm so ready to decorate a nursery. I have allready been looking at things. Our families are sooo excited too. This is the first grandchild on both sides and first great granchild too.



I'm so excited but please keep us in you prayers that this will be a healthy baby. Also another good thing is I have been feeling great. No sickness! I hope it stays this way. I almost dont believe that I am pregnant.

Oh yeah. The baby is due November 29th. Thanksgiving baby :) Yeah I have my holidays off!!!!!

Finally back to blogging

I cant believe I have waited a month to blog again. I guess nothing to exciting to blog about lately. I have had spring break this week. yeah!! But I just worked instead of schooling it. Easter was great. We taught our kids in SS and then went to our big service and my whole family came to church with us. We then ate lunch. Most of Drews family is in Europe. BOOO!! So I was kindof sad not see them all.

Oh did I mention we were invited to go to France this summer!!! Drews grandparents and some of his aunts and uncles go every year. But can I tell how upset I am that we had to turn them down :( I am in a wedding and have school. Bummer though! Hopefully we can go with them one year.

I know this was quite random but I must go now. I should have more exciting things to talk about over the next few months :) We have lots going on.

13 Things I must do in the next 3 months for my girls weddings.

1. Go to Lisa's shower at Julies in a couple of weeks

2. Organize and host Lisa's bridal shower along with some other girls at Walnut Lane Inn in April

3. Then go to Jess's two shower in columbia. Luckily there on the same day so only one trip.

4. Find shoes with lisa for my dress.

5.Organize and host Lisa's bachlorette party. I have no idea what to do for it. Any ideas???

6. Get all their presents for their showers. I need to get on the ball though.

7. Work TONS of overtime to pay for all of this.:)

8. Give Jessica her lawn and garden shower that we will have at Lisa's. I'm so glad none are at my house. Now I don't have to worry about cleaning and just let my house get as dirty as I want it :)

9. Find shoes for Jess's wedding. Hopefully she will let me wear my shoes from Lisa's wedding... NO HEELS!!! I'm tall enough as it is :(

10. Book our room for Columbia for Jess's wedding.

11. Get my hair cut and highlighted for both weddings.

12. Go hang out with Jess since I am not going to her bachlorette party.

13. After all these weddings May 10th and June 7th. I will relax for a little while until I have another wedding I'm in. I guess come soon it will be all Baby Showers :) Maybe sooner rather than later ;)

Everyone have a great Weekend.. Love..

Week Recap!

What a week last week was. I didn't stop the whole time. Drew had this great idea of updating our kitchen right before I had a baby shower at our house. Well, I thought ok that's fine. He assured me it would be done halfway in the week. Wrong!!!! It took till this past sat night and he had started the sat before. It was soo worth it in then end. But my poor husband had to put up with me being cranky. He went crazy though on the house. He had people in repainting the base boards and our crown molding. Taking our front door down and putting up a new one. All kind of things that made our house look like a construction zone.

Well, I had to work the last three days of the week and didnt get to clean my house till sat. I did get off work early so we could go to our new Sunday School class meeting at our friends home. So from there we came home and were up till 2am cleaning. We were exhausted and eating Waffle House at 130am. It was soooo good though. Well we then went to bed and was up in a few hours for church.

We had a great turn out for our first sunday of our new SS class. We had to split up becuase we were tooo big. Well we had over 20 the first day and still missing some people that could not come. We love our SS class!!! Well, afterwards we came home and I started preaparing my food for the baby shower for my friend Abby from church. Everyone from church came at about 2pm. We had a great time and could not stop talking :) I guess that is girls for you. We stood in the road talking for another 45 mins. Summer good thing you didnt get run over.haha.. Oh and then this creppy cat kept staying around. It looked like half his face was missing. It was a great time though.

Well I cleaned up and by then it was like 515. I layed down for a minute and then it was time to go back to church. Drew went to the boby building service and I went and helped with the 4 year old preschool choir. There just so precious. It's just amazing to see the difference between the 3 and 4's. The 4's do what I ask for the most part. But my 3 year old on Sunday mornings not so much.

All together it was a hectic and stressful week but my kitchen looks great and I'm so happy with it. I will have to post some pics when I get a chance.
