The Big One

Well, it's official. Scott has officially killed the big one! Early this morning, Scott put a shot on a 10-point buck at 200 yards and dropped him. Here are some pictures of the beast. I'm sure you can tell that Scott is pretty pumped and Racer can hardly contain himself! Racer just kept running circles around the deer, sniffing him and barking at him. Congratulations, Scott!

The nursery is finished!

Here are the pictures of Kilee Anne's finished nursery! Scott did a wonderful job, didn't he? To paint, he also had the help of David and Matt from work. She is going to love this room!

She's so pretty!

We had our 6th ultrasound today! They've had such a hard time getting Kilee Anne to turn her face forward so they could get a good look at it to look for abnormalities, but today . . . success! And let me say, even if she is mine, she is GORGEOUS! She is getting so big. I hope to be able to post her picture from today sometime in the near future if I can figure out how to scan it in. She has the cutest little pudgy face, fuzz on the top of her head, and I think her mouth looks like Scott's. Her heart rate was 150 which my doctor said was "perfect." It was so amazing, she gave us the perfect view of her little heart. We could see each chamber of the heart as it was working! We go back in 4 weeks for our final ultrasound and monthly appointment, and then I have checkups every week until she's born! I can't believe how close it's getting to when she will arrive. We can't wait!

Nursery: Phase One

Scott has been hard at work on Kilee Anne's room! She's been excitedly kicking around all day today as if she knew her room was getting spruced-up! In this picture, the cracks (that we cut out of the walls because of the wallpaper) have been mudded and sanded. It was a nasty job! Poor Scott looked like a ghost when he came out the room after sanding it -- he was white from head to toe! He says we only need one more coat of mud on the walls and then we can prime and paint! I am so excited!!! Okay, so I am obviously in the "nesting" stage of this pregnancy. :o)

Kilee Anne's First Baby Shower

We have officially been "baby showered"! We had a wonderful day today with our Sunday School Class and family at Ryan and Jane Stacy's house as we celebrated the upcoming birth of Kilee Anne! We received so many nice things. Now, we've got to get going on her nursery so we'll have a place to put all of these nice things!
We had breakfast casseroles, fruit, mini-muffins and cake. It was so delicious! Jane, Kim and Val did such a nice job putting everything together. It's amazing how much the body of Christ blesses one another through things like this. As I said at the shower, there were times in the past 2 years when I thought a day like today, having a baby shower, would never happen -- but God is so faithful. He has truly provided for her and protected her and we will be meeting her very soon!
