No baby yet

I am a little late in posting an update, but I will chock it up to moving while I am 8 1/2 months prego. At least that is my excuse! We are officially moved into our new house, and we are ecstatic! Our new house is fabulous, fruity kitchen wallpaper and all. (We will be taking it down, eventually:) The old house is sold, closed, and all the work is finished! Andy worked his fingers to the bone for a solid 3-4 weeks at the list of things the buyer requested for us to finish. My dad, his dad, and even a few good friends helped Andy scrape, paint, nail, replace rotten wood, replace broken window panes, etc. etc. etc. We couldn't have done it alone, and we are sooooo glad to be outta there! Praise the Lord!

We are nearly unpacked after a generous outpouring of friends and family who helped us scrub the house from top to bottom (even scrubbing the floors with a toothbrush...yes, that is the sign of a true friend), move, unpack, and keep me from doing work that might induce labor at a very inconvenient time. My dear mom and dad stayed with us for about a week and helped clean, move, unpack, mow the very tall grass, and even chase a rattlesnake out of our new backyard (due to the grass being very tall!) That was an exciting day. My dad even helped Andy put together Addison's sweet baby bed! (I will post a picture when we get the room painted and decorated).

Highland Shower, what fun!
We had such a fun time at the Griggs' house for my church shower. My family and Andy's family were all there. We feel so blessed by such incredible friends and family. Addison even got a gift straight from England, courtesy of her Aunt Kelly and Uncle Houston. What sweet times!


Here are some sweet little diaper bag tags made especially for our little Addison.







The loot..





Yikes, I look huge! But my sister looks great!



And here is a scary photo of me at 38 weeks, before a date night with my sweet hubby.

Addison should be here any day now, which I am so thankful for since she is definitely making it hard for me to breathe. Yuck. I can't wait to meet her, and to not be prego anymore. We will post any news when Addison arrives!
