Ella Grace is a stubborn little thing already.......

So it was back to the doctor today....I was trying not to be "too" hopeful that things had changed. GOOD THING! Things are pretty much the same as they were two weeks ago except now I am at 3 instead of 2. She is definitely head down and her heartbeat sounds great but other than that it is still a waiting game. Only one small problem - I AM TIRED OF WAITING!!!!!!

I guess I should be thankful for the sleep and rest that I am able to get right now because I am know all to well that that is about to change, but I am anxious to see her little face and introduce her to her BIG BROTHER!

Other than everyone being on "Ella Grace Watch," things here are ho hum and normal as always. Business is good and keeps me and Joey busy and Ethan has adjusted so well to his new school. He is talking a lot more, singing all the time, and just becoming such a big boy. Once he gets over his initial shock and horror of having to compete for any attention, I know he will be an awesome big brother. He is so sweet and compassionate for a child his age and he has such a big heart. He will be my little helper I just know it.

Well I am off to rest my aching back and eat an M&M cookie because hey....I better enjoy it while I still have some time. 13 days and counting folks....

Mothers Day

Well we all had an awesome Mothers Day and I hope everyone else did also! I spent most of the day resting because I have been having really bad nausea all over again and have been feeling really drained all the time. Joey and I took both our Moms to a little Italian restaurant here in Newnan called Mama Lucia's for dinner and we all had such a great time. Ethan behaved like a little prince too thank goodness!!!!!

Went to the doctor today and did not get examined...what a waste of time. Basically it is just a wait and see game at this point. I feel like crap, I am nauseous a lot, I am the size of my house...yet there is NO END IN SIGHT :(

Apparently I will get examined next Monday if I make it til then. I am hoping that I dont!
Anyway enjoy some pics from our wonderful Mother's Day and I will update on the baby as things progress along.


Ethan was running and playing so hard outside the restaurant after dinner that his pants literally fell off. We all got a big kick out of it!!!!

Joey's sister, Melissa, was visiting from New York for the weekend. Here is a great pic of the two of them!

Since he would not pose with me for a good Mommy/Son picture I had to tickle him and settle for this shot.

Me and My Mom posing for a pic.

Ethan loves to eat the camera!!!!!

Before I stuffed myself in to oblivion ;)

Still waiting....

Well we are still anxiously awaiting the impending arrival of our little girl. In the meantime we have been staying busy trying to keep up with Joey's business stuff and trying to enjoy the last little bit of time we have with just Ethan.

Fortunately Joey has chosen to slow things down a little bit which is great because he is home more, has more time for me and for Ethan, and is no longer on the verge of having a heart attack from the stress. ALL GOOD THINGS!!!

Plus once Ella Grace gets here I know he is going to be wrapped around her little finger so it is good that he has found a way to cut back on all the crazy work hours.

Well we will continue to keep everyone posted on the baby progress....everyone around here is making bets on when she will make her arrival. So far a friend of ours has the 10th, Joey has the 11th, I have the 12th and my mom has her money on the 16th. Anyone else care to wager a guess?

In the meantime here are some cute pictures of Ethan from the other day. We were moving some furniture for my mom and he was playing the part of SUPERVISOR to a tee!

Enjoy!
