Couch Family Vacay

Charlie and I spent the week before last with the Couch Family in NMB. We had the best time with family enjoying each others company and sharing many laughs. I also have a few pictures in here of my first visit with Clara, the day she was born, and a few bump pics. We have had a GREAT summer thus far, now time to buckle down and start prepping for Baby Mimms!!!

The nursery is well on its way, as we have our dresser, crib and glider! We're the process of getting the drapes and bedding made, and will definitely need some fun wall art. The color theme is light pink and white. Can't wait to show you some pictures very soon.

Its also hard to believe that Baby Ward Davis's shower is just around the corner. I remember in early May when Ali and I told each other we were expecting! Our due dates seemed so far away, and the thought of a baby shower was a joke! :) I look forward to showering Baby Ward on August 15th!! :)

Baby Clara the morning she was born!! Mama was healthy & looking amazing!!

Sunday afternoon with Jbal, Ejoye andClara

Just a good ol' fourth

I love a loonnnng weekend, especially a Friday off, when I can wake up a little later than normal (7ish), just in time to watch the TODAY show and enjoy a great cup of joe followed by a not timed devotion. This past Friday morning was just that. I also enjoyed a good work out at 9am instead of at 5:30am, things look quite different in the gym when its day light outside.

Charlie and I went to Lake Norman for the fourth to celebrate with my family. The weather was a little iffy all weekend, but we enjoyed a few hours of boating and relaxing. I always enjoy waking up at home sitting around the kitchen breakfast table with my parents over a good cup of Joe. My Dad and I are the early risers, and usually have a good hour conversation started before anyone else gets up. Its quite a treat.

Below are a few photos from the weekend. My parents are lucky, their neighbors at the lake put on the most spectacular fireworks show you could ask for.
