5 on Friday!!

I am sorry I have been MIA on my blog. It has been a busy week. I am back and can't wait to post more stories of what has been going on!! I am so excited to link up with these wonderful women for 5 on Friday!!

1) Las weekend I was able to go out of town to Orlando for a short weekend get away. We went with my In-laws and then my dad came up to from West Palm to hang out with us!! What a nice and relaxing weekend it was!! 

This was a view from our room!!! 

2) Also, while I was in Orlando it was killing me not to know what the baby is because I wanted to buy everything I saw but I had to fight the temptation so I decided to get some new sandals that I have been wanting  to have. 

3) While I was on my way down to Orlando I had a lot of back pain that has been going on for a while. My doctor was scared it was my kidney and that I needed to keep an eye on it. The hardest part about being pregnant is not knowing what to expect and when something is wrong or not. So I just called them and they sent me to get an ultrasound on my kidney and then come into the office because they wanted to make sure the baby was ok. I was so scared. In the end everything was OK!!!! I was so happy my doctor said it might just be my body stretching.... But I got to see the baby :) 


4) When I was in Orlando it was Father's Day!! I was so happy that I was able to see my dad on Father's Day. I don't get to see him often because we live 6 hours away and it is hard to get down to see him. I have always been a daddy's girl!!!  


5) We bought a closet organizer unit!!! I am so excited :) I can't wait to get it and but it in the Baby's Room!!!! 
Not sure if BABY williams is a boy or girl yet!!!! This is just one I found online!!

1.This week was the last week of work so it is officially summer vacation for me. It was so sad to pack up my classroom because I had such a wonderful year and will miss my class so much, but am getting excited to  find out this summer what BABY Williams is.  This picture is from the beginning of the school year!!

2. I am looking for a new book to read by the pool this summer. Does anyone have any good suggestions of books I can read :) 
3.I want to start making crafts from pinterest. I am always pinning things but never go back and make the things I want. That is one of my summer goals :) 
I want to make these cute picture frames!!!

I also want to monogram my front door :) Because I love everything monogram!!

4. We got to see our baby move again this week so that was a blessing. There is something about seeing your baby move that gets me every time!!!! 

5.I am just so happy it is FRIDAY!! I am looking forward to spending time with my handsome husband. This is the first weekend we don't have plans so I am excited to do absolutely nothing!!

12 Weeks

Today we went for our 12 weeks appt. Every night before my appt I never can see because I am so excited and nervous all at once. After the appts I feel so great that I got to see my baby. Today Baby Williams was so active, rolling around, kicking and throwing its hands everywhere. It is just a great experience seeing your baby move. I grow more and more in love with this baby!! I can't wait to meet him or her.
