Master Bathroom and Bedroom

Here is our Master Bathroom that Brian finished recently. It only took 7 months...since we bought the house. We had a hard time deciding what we wanted to do exactly...It was worth the wait. We also discovered Brian's talent for tile.

First Tooth!

Reese officially has her first tooth. I would take a picture of it, but she always has her tongue sticking out. When she smiles, she looks like a can opener. She is also FINALLY rolling from back to front instead of doing her pilates v-up. One cute thing she did this week....she loves the remote control. It is her favorite thing to play with and suck on. While I was feeding her, she saw the remote out of the corner of her eye; keeping one hand on her bottle, she reached for the remote...I could see the wheels turning in her little noggin, "Now how can I do this?"...She quickly figured it out and moved her bottle over to one side of her mouth and put the remote in the other side. Mission accomplished! It was so funny. I wish I could have gotten a picture of that.

Smiley Girl!

She is starting to pull up on everything, now. She is such a happy girl. That gummy smile makes me laugh...not for long, though. She has 2 bottom teeth coming in.

House After

House Before

Our House!

Well, we are FINALLY done with our home renovation. For those of you who don't know, we bought this house last July and were planning to fix it up a little bit. Then Reese came into the picture and who could even fathom letting a newborn lay down on carpet that wasn't new or look up at popcorn on the ceiling. So we went a little overboard, but we can now say we are done and we like it! Here are some of the before and after shots! Enjoy!

My Belly!

Okay, Here I am in a ll my Matrnal Glory. (Who knew you could even HAVE cellulite on your shoulders?) I am 25 weeks in this picture! And, as you can see, the "Boob FAiry" has not dropped in, yet!

Finally Final!!!!

Reese is officially and legally our baby! We are excited that the whole legal process is finally behind us. She has been sick for the first time and has been absolutely miserable. However, she is feeling better now, as am I. (Not sleeping for a week can sure make a pregnant woman cranky). Anyhow, all is well now... Baby Bernice/Bernard is growing nicely and starting to move around some. It's favorite position is on my bladder...nice! It also seems to be growing fast now, as my ligaments are beginning to stretch No one told me that would hurt. I pretty much sleep with a pillow between my knees and an ice pack on my crotch. Running 5-7 miles doesn't seem to help my situation, but my Dr. says to keep running until I can't anymore. To all of you who keep requesting to see my belly posted...too bad! Not gonna happen anytime soon. If you want to see what I look like pregnant, you'll just have to come for a visit and see me in all my maternal glory!
