Thanksgiving weekend comes to an end

Well, no pictures to post with this blog but a little bit of catching up to do...The week was a short work week which was wonderful!
Thanksgiving was shared with family at my daddy and S'mama's house. Cullen came to his first Thanksgiving dinner...he was wide awake and you can tell he was already eyeing the turkey in hopes that next year he gets to eat some.
Hayden and Bryce have been more active than ever, I think instead of tossing and turning in the womb they are fighting...their kicks and hits are definitely more pronounced than before. Brad said they use to feel like little flutters and now even he is shocked at how much they are moving. I just wish they would decide to go to sleep when I do...no such luck though...they are waking me up quite a bit lately.
Friday was spent hanging out with Brad and going to our friend, Lee's surprise birthday party complete with an Elvis impersonator.
Saturday...I was so ready to go to the Clemson/Carolina party at Robin& Paskel's, but woke up with a stomach bug. yuck! The only real bright side to the day was Clemson putting a whooping on Carolina! GO TIGERS!! Georgia however was not able to pull it off, so Brad was not to happy. Brad was a sweetie playing nurse to me and even had to make a late night run to go find some Rolaids for the major heartburn that I was experiencing.
Sunday...stil not feeling the best, but a little bit better. Brad wanted to get out and get some dinner so we ventured out to Italian Bistro where I couldn't even eat half of my dinner. Gee...I hope this bug goes away soon. Let's hope I feel better tomorrow for work.
Next doctor's appointment: Dec. 15th. I can't wait to see how much bigger the boys are getting! When I get time I'll scan the last ultrasound pictures...they are SO much bigger now! One baby weighs 1lb 1oz. and the other 15oz at the last doctor's appoitment.

Cullen...4 days old

I'm an aunt!

Cullen didn't like all the poking and prodding from the nurses.

Sweet baby boy

He's going to be a tall baby boy

he's sunning under the heat lamp

A VERY proud daddy

Carey and Lauren's baby arrived a few weeks early...he was due Nov. 22nd but made his debute today! Cullen Patrick Bailey arrived at 10:07am 5lbs. 8oz. 19.5 inches long. What a sweet baby he is. Mommy and Cullen are doing well and believe it or not...Carey didn't pass out and he cut the cord. ( Needless to say, all in the family were very surprised that Carey didn't get a little weak in the knees. ;-) ) Everyone is so excited that Cullen is here...my dad is strutting around town like a prize peacock with tons of pictures at hand. (what an excited grandaddy he is) I can't wait to spoil him and then for Hayden and Bryce to arrive and play with their cousin! How much fun is it going to be with three little boys in the family only months apart in age!!

VOTE!

Tomorrow is election day and there are so many decisions to be made. Our friend, Michael Hess is running for Dorchester District Two School Board...keep your fingers crossed for him, he will do a GREAT job! Also, let's hope McCain wins...who know what the country will be like if Obama wins.

Look at how sweet my husband is...

I went to Atlanta the weekend before last for a conference and look what I came home to...the cribs were put together (Brad and my dad that), the glider and chest of drawers are all ready. Then...Brad was so excited that he went out and bought the other bedding set and put everything in the cribs to get the full effect. How sweet is he! He had painted the walls the week before and the nursery is starting to take shape. Just a few final touches and it will all be complete.
