29 Week Update!

Went to the Dr. on Wednesday. Everything looks (sounds) great! I was measuring exactly 29 weeks and Addison's heart rate was 150. That's all for now, just wanted to throw that little bit of information out there!

Pink Wall and Lake

Christopher finished the painting! He did let me do the edges! Doesn't he look cute painting a pink wall, I think so!!

Here is the finished product. It's pretty cute, but I think that it will be a lot cuter once the bedding is all completed too!

Saturday afternoon we went to the lake with Christopher's parents, Kallen and Kelsie. Here is Christopher and Kallen with their monster catfish! Kallen says that Christopher's looks bigger because he was closer to the camera and that they were actually the same size...
Here is a picture of the whole group, along with Sampson, Kenna and Christmas. Chutch doesn't make trips to the lake with us like everyone else's dogs. Soon enough we'll have our own little one to bring though!
We had fun at the lake! Christopher got to fish all night long and I got to sit around inside and watch movies and do nothing. It was a good end to our vacation!

Prayers for Christine and Sam

For those of you who know Christine Pinson, and those that don't, say a few prayers for her, Matt and their son Sam today. Christine is getting induced today at 33 weeks, it's been a long road for her and it is truly God's hand on the situation that her pregnancy has lasted this long. They are expecting her to deliver sometime this afternoon and that he will be a little over 4 lbs. It will be a long day but exciting day for all of them. Pray for Christine, Matt, Sam and all the Dr's and nurses that will be working in the situation.

Finally Home!!

Well, here are a few pictures from the rest of our trip. I started getting sick when we were on our way to Boston, but I still ended up having fun at the Red Sox game! Christopher was right, it was more fun than a Rangers game! The crowd was more into it and even though we were in the "bleacher" section people all around us were going crazy! Red Sox fans are way more fun than Rangers fans, sorry Mav and Mel, but maybe that's because the Red Sox are a little more rewarding to watch...

I was writing our names in the sand, Christopher added Addi's to the end!

Red Sox game!

Cool picture of Fenway Park! This is when David Ortiz hit in the winning run! The crowd when crazy! But not as crazy as when Papelbon closed the 9th inning so perfectly!
Flying home took FOREVER. We got to the airport in Boston at 9:00 am and drove away from the Longview airport at 8:45 pm. It was a long, boring and tiring day! Not to mention it was not fun waiting in airports for a total of 8 hours when you don't feel good... Any way, Christopher and I got bored and decided to take pictures of each other. They were all terrible, kind of funny that they were, it describes what our day was like!

Not sure why my nose looks so big, maybe it's swollen from all the "build up" that was in it.

When I took this picture of Christopher I laughed so hard I was crying and then the fact that I didn't feel good made me start coughing out of control, which only made me laugh harder!

Update on the painting... not going so good... I think we've discovered why the ceiling was a color other than white, there are some really weird textures in it and Christopher is on his 4th coat of paint. We decided to switch paint, and now have decided that after this coat if it still looks funny then it's just going to have to stay that way. If you come to our house, just don't look up in Addison's room!

Vacation is here!

I am so excited that the week of vacation has finally arrived! We started out our vacation with starting the of paint of the nursery! Here are a few pictures of the events!

The last of the red wall... all for Addison!

Here is Chris doing what he said that he would never do, paint the ceiling! He is doing a great job and would only do it for his little girl! One more coat when we get back and he is finished! I keep saying "he" becuase he won't let me be in the room very long...

We are in Brewster, Massachusetts! Christopher has a financial something conference here Monday and Tuesday. Our trip here was good! Our luggage didn't get lost... GOOD TRIP! Brewster is beautiful! We are in "The Cape" area in a small town that looks like it should be in a movie!

As we were driving into Brewster we noticed that several houses were for sale so we wondered how much houses around here went for so I decided to look it up this morning... So what could we get here for the price we paid for our house, a 211 square foot room with 0 bedrooms and 1 bath. Not sure what the 0 bedroom means, but it doesn't sound too good!

We are enjoying the nice cool air. Yesterday it was 70 degrees. There were people swimming and we were walking around in sweatshirts... We decided that we must be "Texas-ized" and only used to the warm weather! I mean don't get me wrong, I love the coolness and the ability to breath without feeling as though my lungs are filling up with water, but swimming in 70 degrees weather... no thank you! Here are a few pictures of what we have done so far

The beach

I just thought this was a pretty picture of the Sun glaring off the water

Here is Addison and her first trip to a beach!

I thought this was funny Christopher with his pants rolled up, I called them his man capri pants!

One last thing, I felt Addisons hiccups for the first time last night! It was kind of funny and I'm not sure if she new what to do with them either because everytime I felt a hiccup it was followed by a huge flip/pick/punch, whatever it is she is doing in there!

Mr. and Mrs. James Gladstone Thompson III

Just in case many of you were wondering what Stoney looks like, this is him!!

Yes, here is my belly!!

The wedding was fun! A bunch of the girls came in and several of us were able to meet Reece Cope for the first time! We stayed up WAY past my bed time! But it was worth it to watch Mary sing "Sin Wagon" all dressed up in her karaoke outfit!

Went to the Dr. yesterday for my checkup! I'm measuring just right and he said that the pictures from the sonogram last week were good and everything looked okay! I start going every 2 weeks now. Crazy how time flies! Christopher and I are going to start painting and so hopefully the nursery will be all painted by the end of next week! Yeah for Addison coming soon!!

Still having a problem with Titles... Leslie, Thanks for the tip, but I don't have a place that says "Title." Anyone have any other suggestions?
