Jane: Hotty Toddy

Let's just say she cried at the end of the game last night...

September 24: One Week Old

Papa Mike and Granny have come down to Natchez to visit Jane again. Thursday, September 24 marked Jane's 2 week old birthday. She has grown so much and we love hearing all her noises and watching her change every day. Her hair looks like it is lighter and her eyes may stay blue. Who knows though. Next week, she could look completely different.

Jane: One Week Old-September 17

Jane is one week old today!
I can't believe a week has already passed. She has grown so much and has a lot of personality. Everyone has been so wonderful calling, texting, emailing and stopping by to wish us well and congratulate us. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful friends and family to support us and share our enthusiam of welcoming Jane into our family.

Photos to come...

Millie and Morris

Meet Morris and Millie....How cute are they?! Morris is Jane's new rocking moose and Millie the Monster is the newest addition to Jane's knitted animal collection. Morris the Moose was given to Jane by Lauren and Justin Garrity and so freaking cute! I can't wait to see Jane with Morris one day. Thank you Garritys!! Now we just need Jane.....

A Love-Hate Relationship

My pregnancy has been amazing! I really have had nothing to complain about and have been so fortunate to have such a wonderful experience. I will admit I have become a little antsy since I am 4 days overdue, but know I really don't have anything to complain about. There are some things, on the other hand, that I am looking forward to after Jane arrives...

- Finally getting to see and hold the small bundle of joy that I have carried for 9 months now

- Sleeping on my tummy

- Snuggling next to Hyde (love love love my Snoogle, but love Hyde more and it separates us!)

- Alcohol (I know this sounds bad, but we found out we were pregnant New Year's Eve and I had already bought my bottle of Champagne. Also, we moved 1 block from Fat Mamma's Tamales in Natchez and I have had to resist a Knock You Naked Margarita all summer, as well as the drive through daiquiris in Vidalia!)

- Sushi (I cannot wait to have some rare tuna, yummy!!)

- Soft cheese and deli meat without having to heat it first

- Regular clothes. I can actually look at what the trends are for Fall. I didn't even bother with summer

- Reaching my feet without losing my breath and putting on my running shoes with ease

- Not having to wake up when I want to turn over in the bed

Things I will miss....

- Eating whatever I want, whenever I want (especially the 2 daily ice cream cones)

- Feeling Jane move around

- Taking afternoon naps

- Long uninterrupted baths
