Well, as you can tell by my lack of blogging, I've had spotty internet service for most of the month of February. For some unknown reason, internet and the farmhouse just don't seem to want to get along! At least this time, we got someone out here a lot faster and got the problem resolved (fingers crossed).
Most of you know from my quick facebook update that we're having a boy! Gabriel Allen is expected June 15th, almost a month after his daddy's 26th birthday and a little over a month before our 4th wedding anniversary.
My pregnancy with Gabe has been a lot different than my first pregnancy with Callie. Right now, at 7:45 am, I could eat an entire fridge full of food, and in the afternoons, I'm just starving, but by dinner tonight, I probably won't be hungry at all. Gabe also tends to kick my organs behind him instead of toward the outside, which is a really funny feeling. (I think I'm going to say I prefer Callie's style on this one.) I think my belly is bigger this time, which is typical in your second pregnancy, but I actually haven't gained the "recommended" weight up to this point. I believe this hungry thing in the mornings and afternoons will help me catch up a little too quickly if I'm not careful! Other than those things, and being a little bit more tired because I can't take a nap whenever I feel like I need one, things are going along normally.
Callie is going to be 2-years-old in one week! Oh My Goodness! We're having a party with our church family next Saturday and then our family party will wait until Gramma and PaPaw are here from Texas on March 8th. The lady that has made all our special occasion cakes has semi-retired, only doing weddings, so I'm unhappily trying to find another bakery to match quality and price, which I'm pretty sure isn't going to happen. I've got two cakes ordered from two different bakeries, so we'll be doing a taste test.
Unfortunately, that taste test will be without Philip because he got told after we planned the party that the business trip that he was originally supposed to go on, then told he couldn't go, had an available spot and that he needed to go. So Philip will be leaving for San Antonio, Texas on the day of the party and he will be there through March 3rd. We'll have a special celebration with Daddy on her birthday to make up for him missing the church party.
In moving news, we're supposed to have a house to ourselves by this Sunday! My parents are planning on living in their new house starting Saturday. We probably won't have everything of theirs totally moved for a little bit, but if we can get them set up for the most part, they'll be 1/8 mile down the road Saturday night, enjoying their new house! And we'll be enjoying some Booker family time! :) YAY! (We'll see how it goes today, hopefully nothing to change their plans. . . )
Well, I guess that's all the news I have for now. I've been really busy trying to get things organized for a quick move in to place move for us while my parents are moving things out. Our bed is supposed to be delivered next week, so we are really happy that everything finally seems to be coming together and after almost exactly a year and a half, we'll actually have a place to call our home!
God bless you and yours this weekend! Keep our moves in your prayers that everything goes off without a hitch!
