The Big Day

My Dad got married yesterday! I'm so happy for them, I hope they have a wonderful life together.

I'm trying to gather more pictures, I'll post them soon.

One Year Anniversary

Whew! The blogging wind has been knocked out of me, I guess. I haven't been in the mood at all the past week. But today is a special day, it's mine and Sly's one year anniversary. This time last year I was already hugely pregnant with Sylvester. We got married at the court house, just the two of us. One of the last things we did as just a couple, now we're a wonderful family. I couldn't ask for me, I have to be honest.

Quashela's Wedding

We went to a coworker of mine and Sly's wedding yesterday. It was beautiful! I don't have many pictures yet, still trying to collect them from all the different cameras. But here's the few Sly and I took.

 

Wedding and Knitting!

As I mentioned before Sly and I got married on 08-20-2010 and here's a few of the pictures we got at the court house. I'll have more pictures soon!

I also finished the first knitting project in a looooong time, I feel like it's been ages! Here are some heelless/toeless socks I made for wearing around the house. I wanted to finish these so bad so I could start on some baby hats for the wee one. I'm going to make a little pumpkin crocheted hat and a knitting simple baby hat. Here's a couple pictures of the socks I made.

I'm 33 weeks along now! I'm getting more and more excited, I can't wait for the baby showers, then I can figure out exactly what I need. I'm going to start packing a hospital bag here soon, just incase... I hope it will be many, many more weeks before baby Sylvester arrives, but I don't want to ignore the obvious and not be prepared either. Everyone has been wonderful sending us gifts, from people we see often to people we're lucky if we get to see once a year. I hope everyone gets to come after he's born so they can all meet him. But for  now it's time to get off my butt and get something done today, back to work tomorrow. :( http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c262/LadyMienna/crafts/013-2-1-1.jpg

So tired...

Sly and I got married on Friday, August the 20th! Woohoo! It was wonderful. Unfortunately Mom didn't make it there in time to see it, but it was nice having just Sly and I there. My Dad couldn't be there due to work and neither could Sly's parents, so I'm kind of glad that no one else was there. She was pretty bummed, but she'll see it all again next year when we have our ceremony, anyway.

I'm increasingly tired these days, not sleeping well, leg cramps, etc. The joys of being 33 weeks pregnant, I guess. But I only have 7 weeks to go until I meet our new family member! I'm hoping I go into labor on 10-10-10, because it would be neat. We have a friend that's birthday is also that day, to make it even better.

I'm finishing up the heelless/toeless socks I'm making so I can start on some baby stuff. I have a cute pattern for a pumpkin hat and another quick baby hat. I'd like to make some mittens/socks too, since he'll be super tiny during the cold months. I'll post pictures as soon as I'm done!

busy week!

So, we're getting married on Friday, which means we had to work Monday. I didn't feel like doing anything today so I laid around until almost 3pm, sleeping off and on.

Tomorrow I go for my next OB/GYN appointment and then I'm going to go get waxed. So that should be exciting! We don't have much going on Thursday and then we get married Friday and then photos and a massage. I've never had a "professional" massage before, so that'll be nice. :) We plan on having dinner at Oscars in Summerville. But its just after midnight and I'm exhausted, g'night!

Quick update

Just want to post a quick update before bed. I'm still sick, sadly. Finished my antibiotic today, so I'm assuming it's not bacterial. But I did finish one scrapbook page, completed another one and made 3 thank you cards for gifts sent for the baby. I think they came out great, and I'm going to send them off tomorrow.

We had our last repeat ultrasound this week, and our little one still had his hands covering his face. He was moving around plenty, but he'd drop one hand and raise the other. I was a bit disappointed that we didn't get any really good pictures of his face but we'll see him in a couple months, so I can wait! Sly's Mom bought us a crib, Cassie has sent us a baby wrap to carry him around in and my grandmother sent us clothes. I'm getting more and more excited by the day. I'd say I can't wait to meet him, but my biggest fear is going into labor early, so I hope I don't meet him until he's ready (at 40 weeks).

We also applied for our marriage license today. We'll go pick it up tomorrow and make an appointment with the court house to get married on Friday the 20th. Sly and I both commented on how "short" the lady was when we went in there. She acted more like we were applying to kill someone, over applying to get married. And to top it off, we had to go to the coroners office to apply! Aaawwwkkward.

Scrapbooking

I did some scrapbooking this week (I'll try to get pictures Monday) and it was a lot of fun. It takes me a LONG time to get anything done, though. I want to try 47 million different layouts before I decide on one. My first page is very plain, muted colors, no stickers (other then the address). I didn't have a lot, because I didn't want to buy a lot but of course that changed very quickly. I've got all I need, I think, for at least three more pages, I've already sorted out the stuff and got it all together.

We had our 3D Ultrasound this week, but our little man wouldn't move his arm away from his face so we didn't get enough pictures of his face, the tech said. So, we rescheduled and we're going back Tuesday to get some more pictures. I can't wait, I love seeing him, I have to choke back tears every time I go in there. I'm going to get those pictures uploaded Monday at the latest, I meant to upload them this last week but I was having an emotional roller coaster for a week and didn't get a whole lot done that I set out to do. Oh well, we'll blame it on hormones!

We have exactly 20 days until we go to the court house and get hitched! Woohooo! I'm excited. :) Sadly, my Dad can't be there, which is a real bummer but he'll be there next year when we do a ceremony. He'll be coming into town this next weekend, after an interview in GA, I hope he gets this job! That would be so great, I'd love for him to be closer when the baby is born. :)
