Anne Bailey's First Home

Ruff and I moved back to our hometown of Tupelo about one month ago. We are so excited to be back so Anne Bailey will grow up in the same town as her grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins. Also, since we are first time parents we will feel better having all this help just a few minutes away.

We absolutely love our new house and neighborhood and think it will be such a great place for Anne Bailey to grow up. I feel like we will never be completely finished decorating but I am really trying to before she gets here. Here are a few pictures of our progress so far.

I hope you like our house as much as we do. We also have two guest bedrooms so feel free to come and stay anytime.

23 Week Checkup and Movement

Yesterday I went to the doctor for my 23 week checkup. Anne Bailey seems to be doing well and is growing stronger everyday. At least we think she is growing because my belly sure is. We also discussed my diet and my LOVE of anything sweet right now. Dr. Kellum is so nice because he politely said "lets try and maintain a healthy well balanced diet." I then told him that healthy food is not what I want right now.

Anne Bailey has also been moving alot lately. I started feeling her a little around week 18 but wasn't sure if it was her. This past week she has really been moving alot especially at night and in the morning. Ruff got to feel her kick for the first time Tuesday night and then again on Wednesday morning. Feeling her move definitely makes it more real that we are having a baby. We are just so excited and have no idea how we are going to make it until August to meet her.
