Baby's coming

I like to think of myself as a pretty even-keel kind of person. I don't freak out about much, nor do I like to be a drama queen, nor care to be around them (again this is what I tell myself, and I'm only basing my analysis off of my interpretation and my husband's feedback), so it was a little crazy when I had my anxiety-driven "THE BABY IS COMING!" freak out moment a few weeks ago. Granted I do have a higher probability of pre-term labor due to my own anatomical issues, but I'm still at least a couple months away. My adoring husband calmed me down after the doctor's appointment that pushed me to the edge, and after some much needed "nesting" this past weekend, I am feeling much more relaxed. I am truly thankful for my hubby. He is my better half without a doubt.
Yeah right that's me now... try at 15 weeks when I finally didn't look like I just had a beer belly!
Now this was two weeks ago at 27 weeks.... I don't seem to be slowing down the growth process by any means!
My sister and mom put on a great baby shower for me this past weekend. It was so much fun! Most of the attendees were my mom's fun neighborhood friends. She's pretty popular, and they were not afraid to attend right after a tennis match- hence the gal in the front row.
Allie came in from NC too. I don't know anyone better to put together a party than these ladies. It was really amazing! I'm sure they could start a business!
Some of my Bible study ladies attended too. I love each one of these precious women.
One of my best friend in the world, Kyra, wasn't able to attend any wedding events for me, so she wants multiple invites to showers. :)  It's beyond fun to be pregnant with her. She's 6 weeks ahead of me, but sadly we look the same!
My sister really knows how to be the hostess, and she doesn't mind running as the gameshow host. Her mother and son look so proud!
None of the women in my family are teachers, so I wonder where I get it from? Like mother, like daughters.
I'm so excited that so many want to shower this baby with love. We continue to pray for Smith Baby's arrival, and hopefully still have a couple months to prepare! :)
Thanks for an amazing shower Nick and Mom! Love y'all so much!

"His legs flail about as if independent from his body!"

If you are a "Friends" watcher as I have been known to be, you will appreciate that quote. I am getting to see the Chandler Bing's greatest fear--Michael Flatley and the "Lord of the Dance" performance. I am so excited! I've seen a lot of different types of performances in my lifetime (even the gravely strange or soberly artistic modern dance shows), but I've never seen an Irish Riverdance! My mom got tickets for us back in October for my birthday. She is so astute and thoughtful! In case you aren't familiar with "Lord of the Dance." Here is what Wikipedia has to say about Mr. Flately's Dance: "Lord of the Dance is an Irish musical and dance production that was created, choreographed, and produced by Irish-American dancer Michael Flatley, who also took a starring role. Michael Flatley found his first fame starring in Riverdance, but he left the show in 1995 before its debut in London after a disagreement over creative control. F

When you smile...

The whole world smiles! This was his very first "conscious smile" Who says you can't dress up little boys for fun too? Silas enjoyed sleeping at the lake instead of fishing or swimming. Anyone surprised? Our newest pastime consists of singing to Silas until he shows us his new array of smiles. Matthew discovered this newest ability when he began singing a classical ballad... I won't embarrass him by naming the lyrics. It doesn't matter how tired you are, this will make everything better! I mean come on. Are you still having a bad day? Did that make it better yet!? Had my  first few outing without the little man to go to coffee, dance, and this beautiful woman's wedding shower. Love you Christi! Thanks to my old roomie for some over-sized coffee mugs to start my day right. A cup of joe and the Word make life worth living. This is his favorite gesture.  I think he's solving the world's problems. That a boy Silas. I knew
