20 weeks, 5 days and counting...



We went to the doctor yesterday for my 20 week check-up. This was the appointment where they should have told us what we are having...too bad we cheated and already found out! Nonetheless, the appointment was just as exciting. I will refer to the baby as "Jack" since that's what Lisa insists upon calling him. That won't be his name, but until we come up with one, I will pacify Lisa. The sonogram tech measured "Jack's" head, tummy, and femur and they were all perfect and in-line with the February 9th due date. Apparently, "Jack" is a thumb-sucker. He had his finger in his mouth the whole time, so much so, that the tech was actually shocked and switched the screen to a 4-D view so we could see more of what was going on. I thought to myself, "This is great! I'm all about having a self-sufficient baby." (Yeah right) He is so cute if I do say so myself!

'Tis the Season


Since Ryan does count for one-third of this blog, I thought I should post what's going on with him too. He killed his first deer this bow season and he was so excited! I, being the animal lover that I am, don't much like the thought of it but Ryan has kindly explained to me that if they didn't cut down the deer population, they would likely starve because there would be too many of them and not enough food. This makes me sleep better at night so thank you honey. That being said, he took his deer straight to the processor so I wouldn't have to see his big brown eyes. Here he is at the Core Land with his 7-Pointer...Congratulations Bo!

The Big Day: Brett & Lisa's Wedding








Well, it finally got here! It seemed forever away, and then before we knew it, we were hustling and bustling around with Brett and Lisa's wedding activities. The bridesmaids' luncheon was Friday at the Horseradish Grill, and we stuffed ourselves silly with lunch and dessert. I barely had enough room left for the baby after eating all that Chocolate Chocolate Layer Cake with Corinne!

The entire wedding day could not have gone more perfect, other than a slight altercation Sarah and I had with the hair salon. Lisa was absolutely glowing and beautiful! Brett made a pretty handsome groom too. The ceremony was at Peachtree Christian (where Brett's parents were also married) and then the reception was at Fernbank. The atrium in Fernbank made for a wonderful atmosphere. The big dinosaur bones were around us and we could see the stars through the glass ceiling. It was quite romantic! Everyone had a wonderful time and I was sad to wish Lisa and Brett farewell...but I'm sure they're not missing us since they're laying on the beach in Jamaica somewhere with a daiquiri in their hand.

Lisa's Bachelorette Party!




Me and Corinne threw Lisa a Lingerie Shower & Bachelorette Party this weekend at the Georgian Terrace. After the shower, we all went out to Opera and had so much fun!
