Atlanta Visit

We had a GREAT visit with Dave, Mel, Avery, and Liam this weekend.  We sort of ran up to ATL spontaneously....we kept getting the cutest little video clips from Melissa of the kiddos and it really made us miss them.  =(  So, we decided it was time for a visit.  Gracie and Harlee came along with us - I just couldn't see leaving them with Lisa since she has her hands full with Miss Abby.  I don't trust ANYONE with my babies, but her.  =)  SO, no other option, but to take them along.  They did pretty good.  Both girls are a little leery of kids - they better get use to them!

On the baby front, I'm 24 weeks prego now and feeling baby "Emily" move all the time.  The movements have turned from little flutters to full fledged kicks and flips.  I feel her the most at night when I'm laying in the bed.  I literally jump from her kicking me - it's such a weird; yet, great feeling.  

Anyways, here are a few pics from our weekend....

Nursery And A Name

We've started working on baby girl's nursery.  It's PINK (same color as cousin, Abby's, nursery).  Thanks Uncle Bo for doing the harlequin design!  I still can't believe we are not painting this room blue and am not 100% convinced we won't be changing it, but I guess we'll see.  =) 

As far as a name goes, I think we're pretty much set on Emily Elaine.  It's been the hardest decision - the biggest and hardest I think I've had to make since Mama has been gone.  I think that's part of my problem with choosing her name - I don't have her here to help me pick it out!  I usually get her opinion on everything and this is a huge something!  I am stuck on Emily because I know she liked it.  We have gone back and forth between Emma and Emily, but I don't know if Mama liked Emma and I know she liked Emily...silly, I know, but just makes me feel better giving her a name I know she would like.  =)  Lisa did the same thing with Abby Grace.  

Anyways - here are a few pics of Michael and Bo getting her room started.  I'll post more pics later.
