Weekend with Ryan's Family

Friday we drove down with Kenzie, Grammie and Abby. We had a good time. Abby didn't like sitting in the very back with the luggage on the way down because it was raining and she was terrified of the back windshield wiper. On the way back home she was good though, it was sunny, so she didnt have to worry about the windsheild wiper.


Friday we got in late, hung out at Jay's new home a bit and then went to bed. Saturday we got to sleep in :) which felt great! Then we took our time and left after lunch for the mall. Kenzie bought some cute sandles, and then bought baby Matthew a couple cute things too. Baby Matthew got his fist couple outfits from Baby Gap. Then it began to rain lots more so we left and went to eat terrific mexican at On the Border. Baby Matthew and I LOVE Mexican food! That night we just went back to Jay's and watched some basketball, Ryan and Jay took each other in Ping Pong and I think Ryan won this time. Then we had some ice cream for dessert, yum, and headed to bed earlier this evening. Sunday we went to church and then came back to his parents house to grill out. After lunch we headed back home. Yea, how nice it is always to be home again :)

Now, we have Friday to look forward too! Ryan and I will be leaving work at noon on Friday to drop off Abby with Kyle and then head to the Richmond Aiport for our Flight to LA, Saturday, Cruise to Mexico and then the 11th we retun to LA and fly to Las Vegas where we get to see my SIS! Yea! Cannot wait. We will then be there till the 14th. We are looking forward to our last big vacation before baby Matthew Arrives :)

Love and hugs to all of you, hopefully fun pictures and more to come in a couple weeks when we return!

This up-coming weekend...

Friday after work, Ryan and I will be driving down Grammie, Kenzie and Abby to his parents house in Raleigh. I will get to meet his Aunt for the first time (his mom's sister). And we get to see Jay's new house. Hopefully Abby will behave with Kenzie. The ride up and back should be eventful. We will for sure have a packed car!

Well hopefully more to come next week before our big cruise :)

We wish everyone a wonderful last weekend of March 2009!

21 weeks tomorrow!

Ryan took a picture of me and my belly last night. So, as of last night we were 20 weeks and 5 days. Matthew and I are so happy and grateful to be healthy and happy thus far. I wish Matthew to have a very happy and healthy life. I know he will be a wonderful first baby boy to us! We thank God everyday for such a beautiful gift. We are looking forward to meeting Matthew in person at the end of the summer. I always wonder if he will come out with hair and what color his hair and eyes will be :) This pregnancy has still been so wonderful and we are so happy we have been blessed.

Friday night I went straight from work to babysit for 3 boys (8mos, 3yrs, and 5yrs). They are really great kids! Saturday day, Ryan and I ran some errands with Abby of course, stopped by to see Grammie and finally started our registry at Babies-R-Us. Then we have registered for our stroller travel system (including infant car seat at Target). If you would like to view the goodies and fun stuff for little Matthew please click on the following links. Babies-R-Us or Target. Then was able to see a little of the baseball game, but it was a bit chilly still for that. That evening Ryan hung out with some buddies and I babysat for 1 little boy. It was a good weekend!

Sunday, I picked up Maddie in the AM and drove to Reston for a baby shower brunch for our college friend Jessica who is having her 2nd in a week or two. We had fun and then of course I got to see Joshua James for a little, he is precious. Maddie and I tried to explain I have a baby boy in my belly and he didnt get it, he said I want to see. So, I lifted my shirt and he said he cant see, so I said he is sleeping and then he said where, ha. Then he thought Abby's bed was our baby boy's car seat. Then of course he wanted to know where Abby was. I love it when they are full of questions! Joshua James is such a sweetie. He will meet Matthew someday and I know be very lovable to him. Then that night Ryan and I went to church and then had dinner at home together!

This morning I was super sleepy after a long weekend. I will try and get Ryan to take another photo of me and belly tomorrow evening. This week, I just have my regular pre-natal classes and then book club with my girls on Thursday after class.

It is a BOY!!!

Just got back from the Doctor's I am 20 Weeks TODAY - Just found out our due date is now actually August 6th, 2009 :) One day, no real difference. All is great and healthy and Matthew is right on track weighing 12 oz now.

Pictures of Matthew Ryan White. Hope you enjoy!

ACC Tournament Weekend

This past weekend, I flew out of Charlottesville after work on Friday to go meet my hubby who I hadnt seen since early last Monday AM. I was super excited to go somewhere as I love travelling plus spending the weekend with my honey away is always the best, even though he was working. We had a good time and I got to meet more of his friends he used to work with at the Wolfpack Club most have since gone to other Universities, still doing what he does. Below are a few pictures of the Georgia Dome. I have to admit I was happy to see UNC go down :) Sorry to my UNC cousins.

18 Weeks and 5 days

Me and Baby White We are doing GREAT!

So far, I love being pregnant! Still lucky with it being pretty easy thus far, I just pray it continues this way and with no complaints. :)

This week has been a little sad, been without my honey. He was in Charlotte, NC Monday and Tuesday for meetings with donors and is now down in Atlanta for the ACC tourney. Thanks to a Valentine's gift from him, I get to go down and meet him in Atlanta Friday and we get to stay at the Ritz! I cannot wait to see him! :)

Tonight I am babysitting, other than that I have been busy with my prenatal classes, junior league and taking care of my Abby girl. Abby gets to hang with my bro for most of today while I babysit so she is not all alone. I know she loves Kyle, so will enjoy that!

Well have to get back to work stuff. More to come hopefully after the weekend. If you have any guesses of Boy or Girl, let us know! We will hopefully find out on the 19th of March, one week from tomorrow!

Time keeps flying by...

Last weekend I had to volunteer for our Junior League Literary Feast, then came back to hang with my hubby, Suzanne and Andy at their place. Then we walked back to our house and headed to bed early. Saturday the 28th, Dave came into town for Derik's Bachelor Party. We had lunch with Derik and Capps then headed to the basketball game. Shortly after I headed to babysit and Ryan and Dave when to dinner and bowling for Derik Bachelor Party. They seemed to enjoy themselves which is good. That Sunday Dave took us to brunch we ran errands and went to Church. This past week at work went by fast which was nice. I am now in week 18 and still doing well. Friday the 6th, I babysat and got to watch the movie Australia. If you haven't seen it I highly recommend it. I enjoyed my time. Then yesterday we slept in (trying to take as much advantage of this now), I went to listen to a dentist talk about pediatric dentistry and how to keep your kids teeth healthy beginning in your womb. I found that class interesting. While I was there, Ryan washed our cars as it has been in the 70s and sunny this weekend. We have been blessed with beautiful weather! Not too much later we headed to the last home basketball game of the year. They won thanks to Diane's 3pt shot at the end :) I must admit it was a pretty fun game. We came back did some laundry and then went to Boylan Heights for dinner with Katie and Michael. It was nice to hang out with them again. It had been a while. This morning we of course slept in again :) do some more laundry, eat at Bodo's and then browse at cars since dealers are closed and cannot bug us, then mini grocery store trip. Abby came with us of course since it has been beautiful out. Now we are home getting some things done and will head to church soon. I will try and get Ryan to take another picture of me and Baby White so we can post before he heads out of town tomorrow. Hope everyone else had a wonderful weekend!
