5 years ago...

I married the man of my dreams! Steve and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary on Friday, March13. (yes, this blog is a little dated) We decided we wanted to go back to an all time favorite of ours, The Melting Pot. We went for some cheese and chocolate fondue. We are usually too full to enjoy the chocolate fondue at the end, so this time we opted out of the meat fondue. It was actually the perfect amount of food. Delicious! We can't believe it has already been 5 years, as we think the time has just flown by. I guess its true that time flies when you're having fun! The past 5 years have been the best 5 years of our lives and we are looking forward to starting this new journey together as parents in just a few weeks!

Our First Shower!

Steve and I had our first baby shower last weekend with our lifegroup. It was absolutely beautiful I couldn't contain my tears...pregnancy hormones, I suppose! The decor was in our nursery colors (pink & black damask) and they had a sweet princess theme going on. We enjoyed baked potatos, fruit salad & ceasar salad for dinner and we had strawberry cheesecake for dessert (our favorite!). They showered us with many wonderful gifts for Cambry and I was so excited about them all that I stayed up late that night trying to organize some of it in her room! FUN, FUN! We are so blessed to have such a wonderful group of friends! Thank you for the wonderful shower, guys!

Isn't the "Cambry Brooke" sign so cute?!?!



This picture doesn't do it justice...the decor was so cute!!





One of our many wonderful gifts...

Maternity Pics

Some of you know that lately Steve has taken up photography as one of his hobbies. He has been accumulating some very nice photography equipment for a little studio in our formal living room. His first photo shoot with the home studio set up was my maternity pictures! He took a ton of pictures and we were both exhausted by the end!He did a FABULOUS job and we were both pleased with how they turned out. I think we've finally narrowed them down and here are a few of our favorites. I can't believe I am about to put a bare belly pic on here!! :) To see more, you can go to his website at stevenhodgsonphotography.com and go to the gallery & then maternity.

31 weeks!

This past Friday I had my 31 week appt. It was a short and sweet appointment. My doctor did a tummy check and I am still measuring right on track. Cambry's heartbeat is nice and strong. She predicted that our little girl is a little over 3 lbs. and she is estimating she will be about 7.5 lbs if I continue on this track. Considering I was over 9 lbs when I was born, 7.5 lbs sounds good to me! :) She did remind me that things could easily change and that is just a prediction! I am feeling great and just can't believe that the end is not too far away! Stay tuned for some more blog updates as soon as I get a hold of some pictures...
