Skylar's crib

Skylar's Grandma Booker (Larry's Mom) bought her a beautiful crib that turns into a bed when she gets older. We just love it! Incase you want to see it you can go to the website forevercocoon.com & look at the Cocoon 1000 series in the paprika color. Thanks so much Grandma!!!

Great product to try

As most of you know we have 2 large dogs & I am a germaphobe! I have a great steam cleaner & I have pretreated w/ so many products but the carpet stains always resurface...until now! I found something I was so happy with that I had to let everyone know about it. Everytime the sun shines into my house I see these crop circles on my carpet...pee stains from my lab's younger days! I also had some spots w/ heavy foot traffic & coffee stains (thank you Larry!) I tried a product at Home Depot called Capture (in a purple & white box) It includes a pre-treatment spray, a powder & a scrub brush. The product sits for 1/2 hour & then vacuum. There is no odor & it is safe to use around kids & dogs. It has been several weeks now & the crop circles have not resurfaced! It is amazing. So if you have a pet or a messy husband give it a try.

30 week update

I had another check up yesterday & all is well with baby Skylar. I have been going to the Naval hospital for my prenatal care & I usually see a different Dr/midwife each week. Yesterday I had a great Dr & she told me I will be seeing her for the rest of my pregnancy! I am very happy since I liked her a lot. I am only 10 weeks away from my due date!!! I am pre registered at the hospital & yesterday I got my stork parking pass, so now I get front row parking at the hospital! This is great since I usually have to park on the 4th deck in the last row! At least I get my exercise. Tomorrow Larry will leave again for a month, but he will be back all of December & January so he won't miss the birth. I am really happy about this since I wouldn't want anybody else to see my crying & yelling in the delivery room!!!

Gifts from MeMom


Today Skylar got a package from MeMom (Chris' grandmother) She got all kinds of cute goodies! Thanks MeMom!!!

29 weeks pregnant




Today Larry took a couple of pictures of me in the baby's room. It's very hard to take a picture without my lab Sierra! She loves the camera!!! It is still a little empty in the baby's room, but the furniture is coming! My Mother in law ordered us a beautiful crib & Granny ordered us a bassinet! They will bring them at Thanksgiving. I can't wait!!!!

The big wedding

We just got back from a great weekend getaway! My boss got married in Corolla, NC. It was awesome. We had a BBQ Friday night w/ live music & a DJ, a catered breakfast on Saturday & Sunday & the wedding on Saturday night. The wedding ceremony was on a pier at sunset followed by a fun reception outside. I will include pictures soon!

Changes

So this weekend I will be 27 weeks pregnant & I am ready for this baby to come out!!! I get up about 10 times in the night with a full bladder, have swollen ankles & wrists, but the worst thing happened yesterday...I had a really hard time painting my toe nails! Larry was very nice & said why don't you start going to get pedicures. I called my sister Cindy to tell her about all of my new aches & pains & she laughed & said there are so many more to come!!! I must say the one good thing is that you can wear what ever you want & you don't have to walk around sucking in your stomach because it is actually supposed to stick out! This weekend we are going to my boss's wedding in The Outer Banks, NC. My boss (Rio) showed me the seating chart yesterday & said "Look...I sat you right next to the bar!" & then she remembered I couldn't drink!!! Larry also forgets I can't drink sometimes & then he says to me...thanks for carrying our baby because he doesn't think he could handle it! If he were carrying the baby he would be in bed all day!!!
