Lots of updating to do!
Lets see, I guess I'll begin around Christmas. We had a great Christmas. Lots of food and family time! We started off Christmas Eve with going to my mom's parents early that morning and finished off the day with going to my dad's side of the family. Christmas morning we woke up, ate breakfast just us 2 (for the last time!) and opened presents with each other. For lunch we went to Tyler's parents and ate lunch and opened presents with them. Around 4 or so, we opened presents with my parents followed by dinner! It was all fabulous!

I was 29 weeks here... |
Moving on! I got a new lens for my camera and we played with it a little bit....

The day after Christmas we loaded up and went to Gatlinburg with Tyler's family. There was no snow so they boys were able to ski like they had planned. One night it ended up snowing just a little bit and they were able to drive about 2 hours away and ski. So it ended up being no so bad. We went to Cade's Cove one day and drove through the park. It's pretty much a deer reservation. We didn't really get to see much, matter of fact we see more when we go to Greenwood, but it was still a neat experience.
We came home on Thursday and left for Greenwood for New Years on Friday. Tyler hunted and I just laid around. Nothing too exciting or special but I was just fine with that.
The following Tuesday, January 3, I had my 30 week check up. Everything looked great! Everything was measuring right on...except for her belly...which is measuring over a week ahead of schedule! Wittle fat girl! That afternoon we headed over to Baby's Kickin to get a sneak peak of what little Miss Sadie looks like. We are even more in love now than we were before!

look at those cheeks! |
|
we think she definitely resembles me as a baby |
We all thought they turned out so good! It just makes it that much more real now after seeing her. I just love her so much already. I can not even imagine what it will feel like when she gets here.
The next day was my birthday, January 4th! Tyler and I went to dinner at Outback because I was wanting some cheeesseee fries, YUM!! It was delicious. Thursday night I went to dinner with my besties to Mt. Fuji. No pictures, but we had a really good time!
Chip and Vanessa went to Baby's Kickin on Thursday to see about getting some pics themselves. I don't have any copies of them but they got some really good ones too. I did make this though.....

Sweet Cousins :) |
Once again we headed back to Greenwood for the weekend so the boys could hunt. Saturday night we went to Giardina's for my annual birthday dinner. I haven't eaten steak this entire pregnancy because the thought of having to chew it has make me sick...well that changed! I ate an entire 20 oz ribeye by myself. I never even eat ribeye! I am a filet type of girl. I topped it off with a piece of butter cake topped with vanilla ice cream. De. Lish. As always. It is definitely one of my top 3 places I have ever eaten.

All of us at dinner. Please excuse the fat face. |
We set up the babies bed in Greenwood. The crib is the one my mom used with Chip and I, surprisingly enough it works just fine.

I have added a few things to her nursery too...
|
I have since added fabric into the 2 black frames and it looks much better |
|
She got 2 piggy banks for Christmas, we love them! |
I believe I have updated everything now! We are starting to get back to "normal" from the holidays...we just know once we get settled, our lives will change (for the better) more than we could ever imagine! I just can't believe how close it is getting! I can't wait to meet her but for now I am trying to rest as much as possible :)
