Our 1st Ultrasound

Actually it was our 2nd ultrasound, but the first one we were unable to see the heartbeat.  Well, I think I've just figured out that the ultrasound machines are old!  We could see our little one a little better and could tell that there was a heartbeat, but it just didn't seem as clear as Raleigh's.  Also, they have no audio on the machines so even though we could see the heartbeat we couldn't hear it...bummer!  The heart rate was 123 bpm which is great.  My first thoughts with this heart rate is a boy, but we'll see.  We're going to love this baby be it a boy or a girl so it really doesn't matter.  He/she will just make our little family a step closer to completion!

Going to the Chapel...

and we're going to get married.  Well, at least that's what Raleigh is pretending and only pretending because she has 30 more years before she can even think about it!  Her new fascination is taking a blanket, wrapping it around her, and calling it her wedding dress.

Airport Visit

Scott and Vivian had a layover in Atlanta when they were on their way back to Germany so we made a trip out to the airport for a quick visit.  Although it was short it was great to see them!

Our cute cowgirl!  After wearing Scott's hat she wanted to be Jessie from Toy Story.

 Since Scott wasn't here for Mother's Day, mama wanted pictures with all of us again!

Barrow County Relay for Life

Mama, Raleigh, and I went to the Barrow County Relay for Life.  Daddy was suppose to be there to walk, but was out of town and Jason was at the drag races.  We had a lot of fun, saw several people that we knew, and Raleigh and I rocked out the Bingo games!

Checking it all out and wearing her Relay shirt

 Playing Bingo...and we were the two youngest playing and we both won!

Positive!!

Four years have gone by since I last saw this and it makes me so happy!  Of course I get really nervous every time I take one.  It was so bad that I couldn't go back to sleep when I woke up at 3:30...finally I got up by 4:15 to take it.  When we saw the little plus sign Jason and I were so thrilled and thankful that the Lord is choosing to once again bless us with a little baby!!!

Of course by the time I took this picture the line had faded a good bit, but you can still sort of see it!

Mother's Day!

My sister-in-law had a great idea for Mother's Day.  She made reservations for all of us at The Georgia Club for lunch.  We had a large crew...Todd & Cindy, Cindy's parents and her son, Jason & I, and both of our parents, Jason's grandmother, and of course Raleigh.  I was a little worried that the food might not be so great, but it was wonderful. We had a breakfast buffet to choose from and a lunch and dessert buffet.  I couldn't enjoy the desserts because I felt so sick (thankfully this was a good feeling).  We had a great time celebrating all of the mothers!

We got Nana two more charms for her Pandora bracelet that she received as a retirement gift

 Grandma got a lunch bag, cup, and a new charm for her Pandora bracelet

 Cindy with her family

 Bubba (Raleigh's imaginary friend) was there so Todd had his picture made with him while Raleigh took it

 Then it was time for Todd and Raleigh to have their picture made with Bubba (Raleigh has her arm out to put around Bubba)

 All the mothers

 Not sure why we forgot to get Raleigh in this picture  :(

 I feel so blessed to be mommy to this little girl!  She tries my patience a lot, but it's all worth it.  I love when she comes up to me and tells me that she loves me.  She can give the best hugs, has the funniest personality, and makes me laugh!  I love being her mommy!!

Strawberry Pickin'

We went to Washington Farms to pick some yummy strawberries!  This year Raleigh really enjoyed eating the strawberries, but was also a help picking as well.  It's amazing at the change that takes place in a year!  We picked four gallons and have some frozen strawberries to use in some ice cream this summer!  I love doing this every year!!
