34 weeks...

ONLY 41 DAYS UNTIL "D-DAY"!

Next Friday we are scheduled for another ultrasound. We can't wait to see how much our little boy has grown in the past 16 weeks...I hope he is growing as rapid as this belly of mine!

Here is the baby update this week:

Baby measures about 19.8 inches from head to toe and weighs about 5 pounds. Baby has probably settled into the head-down position and is moving less frequently. Organs are now almost fully mature, except for the lungs, and the skin is pink instead of red. Fingernails reach the ends of fingers, but toenails are not yet fully grown.

Vacation Bible School...

This week we took an awesome ride on the Boomarang Express:

It was a very sucsessful week. The kids (and adults) had a blast and 18 people came to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior. At the end of the week we were even able to see 8 of those people get babptized. Here are a few videos and a slide show of our week:

(Notice I took the music off our blog, so no more pausing before you play the video.)

Simon Says...

Be sure to pause the music at the bottom of the page before starting the video :)

July 4th, 2009

Independence Day in Lexington was not a very sunny one, but we didn't let that stop us from having a great day. After a family cook-out at Cheyenne's Aunt Brandy and Uncle Mike's house, we headed to VMI (Virginia Military Institute) parade grounds for the annual hot air balloon festival and fireworks. Here are the photos of our day:

Cheyenne with her "arm painting". She was out on the face painting :)

Yummy popcorn!

Watching the hot air balloons.

Jumping in the bounce house.
We were all covered up while watching the fireworks, not because it was cold but because it started to sprinkle....and yes, they were Christmas blankets! We looked so silly!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend!
