spring chickens

we baked. we iced. we conquered.
had a little project this weekend.

Remember the cake balls incident? And then the disaster of the Christmas crafts?
well this weekend, i must say, the cake balls were CONQUERED.
I laugh in the face of cake baking trying to defeat me!

more pictures of the process later, but in the meantime, let me share with you a few of the spring chickens that we made. (These are from my phone, so please excuse the quality.)

went canoeing and i need a tan


we went canoeing on the Harpeth river this weekend with two of our favorite people. It was PERFECT weather for it and we had such a great time. I did MOST of the paddling and Matt fished the whole time from the back of the canoe. He said that was his attempt to let me exercise since i said i wanted a "FIT PREGNANCY". HA! What a punkin he is to let me do the work for the sake of a healthy body and baby.

unfortunately, despite my attempts and best efforts, i didn't get a tan. hopefully with lots of outside time coming, so will my olive skin come back to me...
i really have no idea what i am doing here. FLYING to the canoe? sure...
just taking one for the team and fishing...that's my boy...
ewwww Katelyn...
sea shells on the river? sure...

10 weeks and at a loss for words

everyday i have tried to think of something really great and cool and interesting and witty to write about, but i come up empty! I could talk about my exhaustion...doesn't that sound fun? please...read on. What can i say? I am boring these days! But luckily, I am 10 weeks PREGNATO, which means my mountain is almost over! :)
I could tell you how i feel just fine and dandy and then all of a sudden it is like i am a narcoleptic who passes out and I either wake up at 3am to go to the bathroom and i am on the couch in the dark or mysteriously i made it to my bed with no bumps or bruises where my husband is comfortably sleeping...couldn't tell you how or why i got there.

Or i fall asleep at my friends' house. which is just as awesome and not embarrassing!

butthatdoesntsoundlikeafunsubjecttotalkabout.

I could continue to tell you all that i have been eating (and how 15 minutes after I am done snacking, it is like i haven't eaten in 8 hours...) and how a healthy pregnancy you gain 15-25 pounds and i am sure i am halfway there...at 10 weeks...but that doesn't sound fun either.

instead, i will resort to showing you another picture of my growing baby and how cool it was it see little one MOVING!!!! It was SO CRAZY looking at this picture of a life that is growing inside of me and see little legs and hands moving and then the HEAD TURN! WHOA.

that was nuts & crazy.

that is going to be one sweet, adorable little booger...
