Mother's Day 2010

Mother's Day was more like a weekend event. Saturday we celebrated with my mom, Bruce and Kelly. We grilled burgers, went for a boat ride and topped the night off with pizza. Yes, we ate a lot!

Kelly, Mom and Me

We spent Sunday with Scott's family. After church we went to the most delicious brunch and had a wonderful time celebrating the women in our family.

Sisterly Love

My sister Kelly and I realized it had been a while since we took some pictures together. So with Scott, our professional photographer (or so he thought), this is what we came up with.

14 Weeks

I'm in the middle of my 14th week, so we are officially in the 2nd trimester. Yea! This week has brought with it orders from my doctor to start sleeping on my side, preferably the left. No small task if you are a back sleeper. To ease the transition I bought this huge U-shaped pillow that literally takes up half the bed. I like the pillow and it does help me stay on my side, but there is just one little problem...this guy.

Our dog, Ace

Ace has slept snuggled up to me since he was a puppy. He is not quite ready to give up that spot, even though he is totally squished in between me and the new pillow. It's kinda cute for now, but I'm sure things will change when my belly pushes him out of his spot.

It's the most wonderful time of the year...crawfish season!

This past weekend we went to the annual crawfish boil at our Marina. It's always fun with a band, good friends and all you can eat crawfish. This year Scott outdid himself by eating 5 1/2 boxes of crawfish, which is at least 10 lbs. Yea, he likes shellfish. Don't even bring up crab legs.

The First Box

Our good friend, Dee. She's from Louisiana & knows her way around a crawfish.

I was happy to learn you can eat shellfish while pregnant.

A quick snapshot...

A quick snapshot of me and Scott. We were introduced at my cousin's wedding reception and clicked right away. Two years later we made it official on November 10, 2007 at my mom's lake house on Lake LBJ.

We've had a great time together traveling, boating (Scott's favorite pastime) & just hanging out.

Now we are expecting a baby! The baby is due October 24th, just in time for all the holiday fun. I've been so lucky to have hardly any symptoms. We just went to our 12 week ultrasound and we were happy to see the little one.
