Lindsey is a 5th Grader!

Today was Lindsey's first day as a 5th grader! Her teacher's name is Mrs. Correll and Lindsey says she is super nice. She seems to really be excited about her class - as her "best friend" is in her class! ;-) She was up and at 'em this morning and had her favorite outfit picked out and ready to go! She was happy to strike some poses this morning for me - so enjoy! I am so thankful for such a loving child who is looking forward to school! We love you Lindsey and are so proud of our 5th grade girl!

Lainey Grace Update

Well, we have only 74 more days to go until Lainey's official due date. However, it appears that Lainey is doing really well in my tummy and the doctor is worried that she is going to be a really big baby - the doctor said she thought our height had a lot to do with things. I go back to the doctor on the 27th of this month and they will determine if we need to do an ultrasound and check things out. If so, they will do the ultrasound in about 4 weeks and by then I will be about 34 weeks. If it appears that Lainey truly is getting to big in my belly, then they will go ahead and induce early. She could come a full 4 weeks early, depending on her estimated size. Right now, it is all up in the air and her growth could slow down a bit and she would then come right on time. I am just so thankful she is healthy and I am healthy. I tested negative for gestational diabetes, so all is well there. Lainey is just really happy in there I suppose and is making the most of everything I eat - which I have tried to keep a healthy diet this whole pregnancy. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy treats, but within reason. Anyway, I will keep you all posted, but at the end of the day, God has blessed us with a healthy baby in my belly and we are so thankful!

Last "Hoo-Rah" Before Baby Woolard Gets Here!

Sam and I enjoyed a great vacation to the Eastern Carribean for 8 wonderful days! My mom, dad and brother came along and we have a great time! Our favorite island was St. Thomas, but Tortola ran a close 2nd. Sam was able to dive that day - touring the Rhone, an 1867 steamer that sank during a hurricane. Me and the family went to The Baths at Virgin Gorda - a small island just off the big island of Tortola. We climbed through caves and swam and snorkeled in pristine water! Going on vacation is always fun, but it is good to come home. Enjoy the pictures from our vacation! Please note we spent a lot of time relaxing and didn't take that many pictures, but I hope you enjoy what we did take. The scenerary was breathtaking and now all I have to do is convince Sam to move to St. Thomas!
