I went to Minnesota and Iowa mid June for my sister's wedding. It was a beautiful wedding, and so fun to watch Sarah have her day. Here are a couple pictures from the week....
Our god daughters, Abigail and Isabel were Sarah's flower girls. They were so adorable and did such a great job! Abby was SO excited about everything, mostly to dance at the reception. She was the star of the show that night! I also can't tell you how many times I was told, "Have you ever heard that those girls look so much like you?!?" I have heard it many, many times. :)
And here is the belly at 23 weeks. Poor baby was sucked in so hard by this dress, but it fit and that's all the matters! We both survived.
On Father's Day, I was out and about with my dad when Bud called and told me he had just had a motorcycle accident. My heart of course sunk and I went into panic mode--he promised me he was okay except for the broken collar bone and some scratches....and I promised him I would be home as soon as I could because I didn't necessarily believe him. :) He went to the orthopedic specialist on Monday morning, where they had to break the news to him that he needed surgery and would be out of training for possibly 4 months. At that moment, every plan we had went out the window. We tried really hard to see the positive in it all, but we couldn't for a few days. We are now at the point where we do see the light at the end of the tunnel and have come to terms with all the changes that happened so quickly. Bud had surgery 2 weeks ago; he had a plate and 6 screws put in his collar bone. After the first couple days, which were very painful for him, he is recovering like a champ and of course getting impatient to be put back in class. Now it is all just a waiting game...we have to be patient as he does physical therapy to get back to 100% strength so he can get back in class.
Now we know where baby girl will be born, and we get to set up her room now! I am much more excited about this than Bud is. :) We are going to paint her room in the next couple weeks and start getting everything together. My belly has grown like crazy the past couple of weeks, I think my jaw dropped when I looked at this picture after Bud took it....here is the belly at 25 weeks.
She is moving like crazy these days, and we can even see her move if we watch my belly for a while. It is so fun.
The Spellman's came to visit for the 4th of July, it was so great to see them like always. Jenna is an absolute riot and kept us on our toes all weekend. Our favorite line of the weekend from her came when I was putting lotion on her after her bath, she looked up and me and said, "Emmy, are you putting yotion on my yegs?" I love 2 year old speech impediments!
They left last night, and one of Bud's good friends Tim and his girlfriend Allie are on their way here now. So, needless to say, we have been very busy since I got back from Minnesota.
I promise I will be better about posting again now that our life is back to (somewhat) normal!
