Happy TWO years to my hunny bunny!

Two years ago I was preparing to walk down the aisle of our church and say I Do to my best friend. Today (hypothetically speaking) I'm getting ready to walk down the aisle of Labor and Delivery. My oh my where time takes you and I wouldn't trade it for the world.
We had a wonderful weekend in Charleston celebrating our anniversary/babymoon. We walked, shopped, and ate until we were miserable. We got up early Saturday and headed to the outlets for some deals for Davis and BJ, had lunch at 5 Guys, which I had been craving, went to Best Buy, Babies R Us and Target. Rested a little at the hotel then walked all over downtown Charleston, had an appetizer and drinks (mine obviously virgin) and paid a poor pedicab to cycle us back to the hotel to get ready for dinner. We had dinner at Charleston Crab House and dessert at Ben & Jerry's and were asleep by 10 :)
We finally got our video camera as well. And, let me tell you, I'm going to seriously hurt him if he doesn't stop using it!!! AHHHHH I mean really he woke my up Sunday morning by videoing me, he has videoed me watching tv while he did laundry (which never happens and saying Davis this is what your mom does while daddy does everything), even came in the bathroom while I was peeing. Can you say CRAZY :)
Dear Sweet Husband,
Who would have thought seven years ago this is where we would be?!? You are an awesome husband and I know that you will be an amazing father to our sweet baby boy. You are my best friend and my rock and I can't imagine life w/o you. You always make me laugh, even when I'm mad or upset (which only makes me more mad or upset ha!). Hang on b/c the ride has just started!
To many more years,
Wifey

It's the stinkin' weekend!!

It has finally arrived! IT'S FRIDAYYYYYYYYY! Can I get a whoop whoop?!?!?
We have quite the weekend planned celebrating our Anniversary/Babymoon! Actually we have very little plans..as B would say "we're shootin' from the hip" (a/k/a going with the flow) all weekend. The only requests that I made were that we go away, as in staying in a hotel, shop, eat and have fun enjoying just "us"! Hope everyone has a great weekend and I'll be sure to have lots to talk about on Monday, which is our actual anniversary. Happy 2 year anniversary to meeeeeee and hubs/baby daddy :)

During these final weeks of pregnancy, your baby enters his "finishing period." This is exactly what it sounds like: Your baby's organs, skeleton, and body are well formed, but he needs a little more time to finish getting ready to take on the world. TheBump says that he is the size of a honeydew. By now he weighs a good 4-1/2 pounds and measures more than 17 inches long, pushing the height of your uterus nearly to your rib cage. His toenails have completely grown in, as has any hair on his head. Your amniotic fluid level is at its highest about now. The placenta is still providing oxygen to your baby through the umbilical cord, but your baby is practicing his breathing regularly, swallowing amniotic fluid as he opens and closes his mouth and exercising his diaphragm muscle. He continues to store iron in his liver, and the connections between his brain cells keep spreading like tiny tree branches. Neurons and synapses are developing between those brain cells, forming connections so that he'll have the skills to thrive as an infant.

Me this week...Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 33 weeks
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 21lbs
Maternity Clothes: Of course
Best Moment this week: Walking in his room numerous times a day just to look at all the stuff that we got at the shower this past Sunday! He sure is a lucky little boy!
Gender: It's A Boy...Davis Samuel Ehrhardt
Movement: I LOVE IT and love seeing it but I'm pretty sure he's running out of room...
Food Craving: nothing crazy just food in general
What I miss: sushi
Sleep: It's hard to get comfortable but I sleep good once I'm there....plus all of the bathroom breaks...yikes and apparently I snore pretty loud HA
What I am looking forward to: our Anniversary/Babymoon getaway this weekend.
Belly Button: In for now...
Symptoms: Been a bit emotional this week and I'm starting to get a bit uncomfortable sitting at a desk all day.

Snore Monster

This is the new name that hubs has given me. I'm sorry but I truly cannot help it. He has been sleeping on the couch (not sure why he doesn't go to the other bdrm)some when I get too loud. A couple weeks ago when I spent the night with Sarah she said she tried ear plugs, when those didn't work she moved to the couch too. I've been getting some really good sleep and I guess that comes with it or so I have been told.
Another thing I have been dealing with is my maternity pants are starting to feel tight?!? I mean is this normal?!?! Nicole said the same thing happened to her. I think I've spent enough on maternity clothes at this point and I don't want to spend any more but it looks like I may have to bite the bullet and buy 2 more pairs of pants that I can wear to work. It seems strange b/c I haven't gained any weight in a few weeks but my stomach has def gotten bigger!
Here is the sneak peek that the photographer put on fb until the rest of the maternity pics are done...I am SO pleased with this one and can't wait to see the rest...(and yes I got a little emotional when I saw it)
Lastly, Turner started first grade this week! I can't believe how time flies!!

Daddy a/k/a Duke has been working in town this week so he has shared these two pics from the afternoons with the boys...so rotten yet so adorable ;)

Whirlwind of a Weekend

We had such an exciting eventFULL weekend!
Friday we had out maternity pictures done (which I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE) and had dinner with Nicole and the kids.
Saturday BJ had to work and I cleaned house and caught up on my dvr ;) Then we had a date night to the grocery store (Wal-Mart) and Zaxby's (how classy right??). Mama and Daddy kept miss priss for us since the weather was so nasty so we hung out a little with them when we got back into town.
Sunday was nonstop craziness. We went to church, had lunch with mom and dad, mom and I headed to my shower (which was absolutely amazing..we are so blessed to have such loving friends and family...Davis got some REALLY good stuff), BJ came and loaded all of our gifts, mom and I went to Carmen's baby shower, then to a Ragsland trunk show, and finally home to put away and put together. Needless to say I was exhausted last night.
Also, I have managed to scare the poop out of my mom and husband this weekend...
Sunday morning I awoke to BJ's phone beeping with missed calls from my mom (my phone was off). I immediately panicked when I saw that they were at 5AM. I told BJ that he would have to call her and see what was wrong that I just couldn't take any bad news...well jokes on me...someone called mom and dad's house at 5am, when mom got to the phone it had quit ringing, she looked at the id and saw my number, immediately thought I was in labor or something was wrong, she called our phones and couldn't get us so she came to the house to see that all of the lights were off and both cars were home..she went home, woke dad up, he looked at the id and saw that the call from me was from 5PM the previous day...the id hadn't picked up the 5am caller.
THEN, this morning when B left for work he put Roxie outside. Well about 15 mins later she was going crazy barking and acting fool, so much that it woke me up and I of course knew "something" was outside. Of course, me being the scaredy(yes I know that's not a word) cat that I am, was scared to go outside in the dark to see what it was, I call B so that he can be on the phone with me when the "something" gets me (haha..why I didn't grab a flashlight or something I have no clue) he doesn't answer so I brave up and see on my own. Only to not be able to see what it was, I'm assuming a snake, get little miss psycho and run back inside. I left my phone on vibrate in the kitchen, like always, after tossing and turning and getting crazy dog settled down I'm half asleep when all of a sudden I see lights on in my house and my husband busting through the bedroom door...freaked out that something was wrong he had been trying to call and decided when he couldn't get me to come home to see what was up (keep in mind he works 30 mins away)!! I felt horrible that I had him so worried..Needless to say, I think I'll be keeping my phone in the bedroom with me from now on to save everyone a heart attack!
Sorry for the rambling...now for some pics :)

Such excitement!

I ordered the cutest hospital outfit for Mr. Davis from SheSheMade and BJ and I both were thrilled with the outcome. Hubs said it's time for me to start buying different sizes now...I can't help it that I keep finding the cutest things! (I mean really those little baby jeans from The Gap that I got last weekend were just too stinkin' cute!)
ANYWAYS...
We have such an exciting weekend! We have our maternity pictures this afternoon (this is what I'm wearing...) and I have my first baby shower on Sunday, which I am so thrilled about. I can't wait!! Hopefully I'll have some pics for you on Monday :)
Happy Weekend!

32 wks

Less than 7 weeks to go (being induced at 39 wks)!!!
Your baby is just under 17 inches long from head to heel and weighs over 4 pounds (4lbs 1oz at appt last week). He will gain weight more quickly now and will probably double in weight between now and his birth. Just like a newborn, your baby sleeps most of the time. This week marks the peak of your baby's movements; from now until delivery he will have very little room to move around and you will probably notice a marked decrease in kicks, punches, and rolls.
Other developments this week:
* Nails. Baby will have completely formed fingernails and toenails.
* Head movement. He can turn his head from side to side.
* Organs continue to mature.
* Sucking. Your little one’s sucking muscles have matured and enable him to latch on and breastfeed once he arrives. A good sucking pattern is also a sign of good brain and muscle development. (We got to watch him practice his sucking during the ultrasound last week as well as his breathing :))
* Dreaming. Toward the end of the eighth month, he begins dreaming during sleep, according to brain scans. Due to his impressive brain development, his sleep will now include both REM and non-REM sleep stages. REM stands for "rapid eye movement," the dreaming stage of sleep.
