Abby's 2nd haircut

Finally we went in for the big 2nd haircut. Abby did really well at Snip-its and I was thankful for our coupon. Bunny of course went with us to help ease any worries. The lady took about 2 inches off to get rid of split ends...and b/c I wasn't sure when we'd get back in for another cut since baby boy will take up some time.

The face of what's to come!

Here's our little boy's sweet face at 36 weeks!! We can't wait to meet him soon!

HIS HEAD IS DOWN!!

Good news for my hopes to attempt a VBAC today. Baby boy Jones is head down where he's supposed to be!! We were excited to see him on the ultrasound and got some neat 4D pics of his face. He's already looking chubbier than Abby. They estimated him to be about 5lbs 5ozs right now so we'll see how big he gets after all my thanksgiving eating!! They weren't able to further confirm the boy status because of such cramped quarters. But I'll go ahead and start washing his clothes soon and hope he's really a HE!! Can't believe he's due a month from today!

Black Mountain trip

A big thank you to Big Daddy and Special K for a wonderful long weekend at a beautiful Montreat home!!! We enjoyed being someplace so nice and enjoying all the fall colors. The whole family went to the Western Carolina Nature Center one morning...which was even better when we figured out we could get in free with our zoo passes! Abby loved following Blythe around and seeing the "big bad wolf" since her new favorite book is the "Three Little Pigs."



My new favorite picture of Stephen & Abby!!!

Halloween

Since we were in Black Mountain at Montreat for Halloween Abby got to go trick-or-treating with her cousins in one of the dorms. She was a butterfly/fairy with her cousin Blythe. Cousin Grant was an adorable Indiana Jones. Stephen got talked into being Michael Phelps and his sister Jennifer does a great Sarah Palin impression. They were all really cute...and since Abby is allergic to milk I got to eat lots of her chocolate. Her new favorite food item from the weekend is marshmallows!!

Family pre-baby pics

We're getting asked this question a lot..."so will you all be done after this baby?" Well, we don't know the answer to that, but we did decide to have Special K (Stephen's mom) take some pics of us as a family with my belly this weekend in Black Mountain. And here are some of my faves.


Copied this idea from the Osborns...was it copyrighted?

Seabrook Island R&R

Stephen and I had a fabulous little vacation while his parents kept Abby for us. It's the first time we've been away from her for more than one night. We had so much fun doing nothing, walking on the beach, talking lots, eating yummy food, etc. And we finally decided on the baby boy's name...which will be revealed when he's born!!

Here's the lovely house (thanks to the Dobson family!)

Here's the view from the top balcony where we hung out a lot

Here's me on our little mini-visit to Charleston
