November update




Ok ya'll!  Sorry about the month lapse :)  I don't have a lot of info to write because I'm in a rush to get everything clean and packed before bed.  But here's the latest update!

I had my 29 week doctor's appointment yesterday.  I now weigh 119 pounds!! Can you believe it?  I never thought I'd see that day come so soon...but it's very exciting.  I'm anxious to see how my body's going to be after I deliver...hahaha.  The doctor said Porter is doing well and everything is going completely normal.  He's growing at the correct weight and everything and kicking the pooh out of me all the time!  So all in all, she still wants me to gain more weight and I've officially gained in total 21 pounds! Only 2 and half more months to grow....wow!

Well, I'm leaving tomorrow morning at 8:15 to go home for the weekendish.  I'm having my only baby shower in Charleston on Sunday.  I'm soooo super excited about it.  My friend Andria is taking me to catch the train here in Quantico and is trying to reassure me that it's really not that bad.  I guess I'll find out tomorrow!  So I will be in Charleston from tomorrow night until Wednesday morning.  On Wednesday around 6:30 a.m., my mom and sis and I are all driving back to Virginia to spend Thanksgiving up here and to help me tote all of my presents back.  Stephen doesn't get a Thanksgiving holiday except for Thanksgiving day.  Which...I'm actually excited about because the quicker he is able to get those flight hours done the quicker we can move to Pensacola.  I do NOT want to have this baby here and drive 16 hours with a 2 week old to move.  I will do anything to get out of here as fast as possible.  And having Thanksgiving a little different this year is worth it!

So...that's about all of the news I have right now.  I will try to definitely post after I get back from the shower and Charleston.  Sorry it's been so long, but it does take time to keep everyone updated!  Keep in touch and have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!!

love as always,
amanda

Here are a few pictures from Stephen's graduation from The Basic School on November 7 (which was also his 25th birthday!)
