Happy Valentine's Day

I hope everyone out there has had a wonderful Valentine's Day!


We had a relaxing night at home since today was sort of rough! I felt horribly sick for most of the day and extremely tired.  I am so thankful to be pregnant but I am certainly ready to get some energy back.  Most days I feel like I can hardly function much less keep my eye lids open while i'm trying to work. 

As soon as I got off of work, I took Briley to the toy store. Probably her favorite place on earth, and then we headed home where "dada" met us with take out from an Italian Restaurant.  It was super good.  I picked up some yummy cupcakes for dessert to top off our dinner!  We literally layed on the sofa the rest of the night.  Briley just loved her Valentine from mommy and daddy.  She got a little telephone, a few books, a coloring book and some new crayons, and some little dress up shoes.  So that kept her pretty entertained thoughout the night! Pics to come soon!!

Tomorrow I am headed to Nashville for my 12 week OB appointment (eventhough I am only 11 weeks).  I am still trying to decide what I want for lunch and which mall I want to stop by before coming home! I miss the "big city" so much! At least I can count on going back every month for the next 7 months and a little more than that towards the end!   Can't wait to hear my sweet pea's heart beat tomorrow!
Please pray for a good report!

Happy Heart Day! <3<3<3

Sick & Snow!

So, i've been MIA because someone and, at times everyone has been sick in our house for the last month! I think we are all finally on the road to recovery now.  Let's just hope it stays that way.  I'm not sure how much more of it I can take! lol (seriously)

Here is a little timeline to show you what I mean...

1st week of January - Briley gets a terrible sinus infection

2nd week of January - I catch the sinus infection that I just knew was the flu or strep but was not

3rd week of January - Briley is feeling better but Michael now has the sinus infection and I still have it too

4th week of January - Michael and I are feeling better but I start to get terrible morning sickness and by the middle of the week Briley is sick again

1st week of February - Briley is diagnosed with RSV, she finally started feeling better by the end of the week

2nd week of February - We are all healthy! We are still watching Briley closely because the doctor said her cough and congestion could last 4-6 weeks but we haven't had to do an albuterol treatment since Sunday the 6th which is exciting news considering she hates it!

I have felt so bad because it has snowed several times over the last month but she has just been too sick to go out  in it.  I was very excited today to take her out.  She really doesn't care that much about the snow but its fun to see her all bundled up and to take a few pictures.  She is most certainly a warm weather kind of girl.  She loves the grass between her toes, the sunshine, and most importantly the pool! If she knew how to countdown, i'm sure she would be counting down the days to spring.  Not too much longer sweet girl!!!


Here is my little snow bunny.  She didn't want to walk in it so she just sat. lol
