Since my last post we have been on the go! With Christmas fast approaching, this family has no time to slow down. Savannah has had two more chorus performances, we went to the Goldsboro Christmas Parade, and I finally got maternity photos done!
There has also been some very sad news for our family. Our family dog, Girl, passed away on December 1st. She was outside and wandered off and, while we were looking for her to help her find her way home, she was hit by a car. The impact itself didn't kill her, and we were able to get her home, but her injuries along with all of her other health issues were too much for her and she spent her last minutes with her head in my mom's lap and finally took her last breath with me sitting beside her. Girl was a 9 year old Boxer and had been a member of our family for the past 2-3 years. We loved her very much and will miss her terribly, but I know that she was very sick and very tired and now she isn't anymore.
In happy news, we got to see our baby girl again! I had a growth ultrasound at my last doctor's appointment. According to the scan, our girl is measuring 9 days ahead of schedule and already weighs around 4.2 pounds. She hasn't turned yet to prepare for birth, but she has a few more weeks, so I'm not too worried. If she hasn't turned by my 35 week visit, I will be nervous. I am really hoping to avoid a c-section.
In celebrity news, Josh and Anna Duggar have recently announced they are expecting #4! Also Kyle and Samantha Busch shared that their little bundle is a boy! I just think it's fun to keep up with these celebrity pregnancies. :)
We had a great time this weekend. Friday we went shopping and to lunch with my grandma, and Saturday we did the maternity photos and the Christmas parade. It was fun to see my friends, Beth and Majesty, in the parade. They both were so excited to see me there watching and smiled so big! It's awesome to me that, even though they have seen big cities and been on national TV, they are excited to see their hometown friends.
Yesterday was a good day too. I went to my mommy class and shared Chic-fil-A with friends, and Jordan took some career tests at the college, and then we went to the PTO program at Savannah's school.
It's hard to believe that Christmas is only a little over two weeks away. Time is really flying by...
Oh! And I almost forgot to share that we had a nice Thanksgiving at my grandparents'! We watched the Macy's parade and the dog show and enjoyed a nice meal, and then mom and I spent all night shopping with her friend, Kim. It seems like that was FOREVER ago...
Anyway, until I get another minute....
