Seven Months!


I know, I know...I'm the worst blogger ever! I at least wanted to update you with my monthly picture. Here I am at 31 weeks. I will try to post more often, but let's be honest, I'm not that interesting! Once our little guy is here we will post pictures galore! By the way...his name is Braden Michael Blanton!

Six Months!

I can't believe our little guy will be here in 3 months or so! I feel so unprepared, yet so ready for him to be here! Everyone tells us how much our life is about to change, but it is so hard to imagine what life with a baby will look like. Ben and I are trying to take advantage of our last few months of being a family of two. Next month we are going to Charleston for a little getaway. I'm really looking forward to it!

Trip to Watertown, NY

Ben and I went to visit my sister, Becky (aka Sisis), a few weeks back. We had a great time! It was so fun to get to spend time with her. Her husband is currently serving in Iraq so I was glad we could travel up to New York and break up her time alone. Our camera is broken, but we were able to get a few pictures on her camera.

Here we are freezing to death, trying to get a picture at Alexandria Bay. We were a little late for a sunset picture. Every time I've visited Sisis we eat breakfast at the Tin Pan Galley in Sackett's Harbor. It is so delicous! I usually get the stuffed french toast...it's to die for. Here's my sister feeling sick from cleaning her plate.Ben could not decide what to get. He eventually settled for this omelet type thing and hashbrowned potatoes with a "side" of a buttermilk pancake. Little did he know the pancake was the size of a dinner plate! It was very funny. Needless to say, we had lots of leftovers!
Nap in the car after breakfast!

Four months!


18 weeks and going strong! I'm feeling great these days. I'm not nearly as tired and rarely nauseous unless I don't eat. I've been feeling the baby move the last couple weeks. I thought it was in my head at first, but now there is no doubt what those little flutters are. I think that is my favorite part of pregnancy so far. It makes it seem a lot more real.
Ben and I are headed to Watertown, NY today to visit my sister, Becky. Our times together are few and far between so I'm really excited to see her. I will post pictures when we return. Hopefully we'll see some snow!
Tune in next week to find out if Baby Blanton is a boy or girl! Leave a comment with your vote.
