6 months...moving right along!

Today is May 23rd and we are approaching our 6 month mark...

Below is a picture of Mommy and you, Hadley!  We have gained 12 pounds since January.  Not bad my baby girl! 

-Daddy got to feel you kick last night...it was so special.  His face lit up!  He finally knows now what I have been trying to describe for the last 6 weeks. 

-Mommy and Daddy like to go to the gym and swim laps.  It's really good for the labor and muscles and it makes us sleep like babies.  (No pun intended)

-Daddy took us to see one of our favorite bands:  Third Eye Blind on Saturday night.  It was a lot of fun!  Mommy stayed up late...which usually doesn't happen! 

-You really seem to like the Frozen Strawberry Lemonade from McDonald's.  It's a nice sweet treat. 

-We have started your room (or should I say Daddy has)  We are doing it in Chocolate Brown, Taupe, and Pink with polka dots and princesses.  It's so cute!! 

-Speaking of Princesses, Mommy is going to dress up in a princess dress here in about 10 days and go to the ball with Daddy.  It will be a very special night.   A night we have been planning for a very long time! 

-Zeus has had a really upset tummy lately and is so "puppylike".  He loves to get into everything...he ate a whole meatloaf out of the trash the other night.   And no, that didn't contribute to his tummy issues! 

-In and Out burger seems to be the big deal in our community right now.  Why people wait 3 hours for a burger is beyond me or Daddy!!!

-We are getting so excited about seeing you for the first time and holding you.  We love you so much!
-The only problem we have right now is that Mommy's wrists are starting to get sore, which is normal from our books.  Oh, and you like to rest RIGHT on Mommy's bladder, so I use the restroom every 30 min! 

Here is a picture of Mommy:

Mother's Day!

Mother's Day was so special to us!   I am a Mommy to Be, and Daddy made it very special for Mommy!  

Saturday night, we went bowling with Crystal and Edward and had quite a bit of "electrifying" fun...the electricity kept going out, but that didn't stop us from having a great time with them.   Daddy bowled two excellent games!

The next morning, Daddy let the doggies out and then brought Mommy a present - a big pink bag with lots of pretty pink tissue paper - what could it be??   Daddy wanted me to open the present all week, but I kept telling him, NO, we will wait until it's actually Mother's Day.   So, I opened the bag...Daddy got me two charms for my charm bracelet from James Avery.  One was a sterling silver "baby onesie" that we can have engraved with your name, date of birth, and weight!   The other was a charm of our birthstone - sapphire.  Since we are both September babies.   I can't wait for you to get here sweet girl!   He also got a picture frame for your room that says "Mommy, my favorite place is being next to you".  Everyone already knows that your nursery colors are pink and brown.   You already have so many things in your room!! 

We laid around most of the day, which was so much fun...Daddy and Mommy have been on the go quite a lot lately!   We watched movies and TV, and then saw the Dallas Mavs advance to the Western Conference Finals by sweeping the LA Lakers.  Then, Nana treated us to a very nice dinner at Del Frisco's!   It was the perfect day!

You are going to have such a loving family, and we can't wait to love and dote on you, and give you so many happy memories.  

Love, Mommy and Daddy!!
