27 Weeks

Avery is kicking and moving around more and more each day.  Sunday night she had hiccups (I think) for the first time and that was pretty interesting. Joe felt her move Sunday night for the 1st time :)   Friday (after Joe gets off work) we leave for the beach for the 4th of July weekend and most of the following week.  We are looking forward to a relaxing week before we dive in head-first into moving, unpacking, and setting up our new home.

We close on our house THURSDAY!!!!!!
  Here are a few pictures from Listing Book.

This is dad's Father's Day present :)

We spent another great weekend at the lake celebrating Hillary and Andrew's engagement on Saturday and Father's Day on Sunday.

"Schoooooooooooool's out for SUMMER!!!!!!"

I'm not excited about that or anything :)  It has actually been a good school year.  I had some really sweet kids and great parental support.  I hope to be that lucky next year, especially with me going out on maternity leave.

This past weekend we celebrated mom's and Susan's 50th birthdays at the lake.  Somehow we managed to pull off a surprise party and for anyone who knows Gina, you know that is not an easy task.  It was a great day.  This weekend we will be heading out to the lake again.  We will be celebrating Hillary and Andrew's engagement Saturday night at Andrew's parents house on the lake.  I am looking forward to catching up with Sarah W and Hillary.  The summer is always so busy for everyone.

Next week I go to the doctor next Thursday, so I probably won't update the blog until after that.  I have my glucose screening, so hopefully all goes well with that.

Here are some pictures from this weekend and some other trips to LKN this year :)

Happy 30th Birthday Aunt Nicki :)

We went to the doctor yesterday for another ultrasound.  Avery's head was down, but her back is facing up so he was unable to see her aorta arch and her umbilical cord.  SO- we have to have another one in 2 weeks.  I don't mind seeing her again :)  I have to go to the doctor every 2 weeks now.  That seems crazy to me, but that's what everyone does.

We had a great weekend in Swansboro.  Patti, Mary, Nicki, Aunt Mary, and Sue planned a wonderful baby shower for us. It was very obviously how loved this little girl is already.   We had great weather and a great visit with friends and family.
