Excellent Finds

I got a call early this morning and my supervisor at work told me she was having a yard sale. Her daughter has an adorable little girl that is 2 years old and she was selling all of her baby clothes. So I went and found some cute things. I bought mostly winter things and clothes that I hope Ava will be able to fit into next summer. My mom wanted to see what I got so I decided to post them here. You can't tell a lot about them from the pics, but there are some adorable outfits here. Super cute. Bradley said, "This baby has more clothes than I do!"

35 weeks...

Well, today I had my 35 week appt. 5 more weeks until my due date. The dr. said everything was looking good, the baby is starting to drop a little bit, and she thought I was doing good. My blood pressure was down just a slight bit, but next appt will be my first day back at school for inservice (the 24th). The receptionist doesn't think she will let me start back officially but maybe just get inservice out of the way. It all just depends on how my blood pressure is once I start getting back into the swing of things. I really want to work up to my due date so I don't have to take extra days off, but baby comes first so we shall see.

Yesterday's 4 year anniversary was pretty uneventful. Bradley picked us up some Taco Bell and we both felt really sick for the rest of the night! But it sure was good. Nothing like Taco Bell to celebrate an anniversary! We were going to watch our wedding video, but for some reason, it won't play on our VCR. IT is so frustrating. You can see the picture when you rewind of fast forward, but when you hit play the tracking is all off. Since the VCR has digital tracking, there is not much you can do.

Tomorrow we are planning on looking for some border for the upstairs bathroom. We want to try and get it painted this next week while I am still off from work. I have had a hard time finding what I want to use, but I am looking in a new direction. I will past some pics of it when we are through.

Well, hope everyone has a great weekend. Love, Tiff

Our 4 Year Anniversary

Today is our 4 year anniversary. Bradley and I got married on July 13, 2002 at half past six o'clock in the evening. I have some wonderful memories of our wedding and the events that led up to it. Our friends and family made it such a special day.

Here are some of the most memorable moments/stories for me:

1. How scared I was that I would cry all the way down the aisle (like I did at the rehearsal), but our ring bearer kept me laughing right up until I walked down the aisle.
2. We chose such a long song during the lighting of the unity candle and Bradley and I talked and laughed through most of the song (we were caught on video).
3. The sparklers when we left the reception were so great! (One little boy even lit one during the middle of the reception!)
4. Bradley and Uncle Earl dancing during the dollar dance.
5. All the help from my bridesmaids as I was getting ready.
6. Freaking out because Bradley was late to the church (as if he is not always late for everything!).
7. Bradley and I dancing to Elvis's "I Can't Help Falling in Love (With You)" while people were blowing bubbles.
8. The Alpha Sigma Alpha song and cheer.
9. My dance with my dad.
10. Bradley and his mom's surprise dance.
11. How I cried when my flowers arrived. They were so beautiful!
12. Our first kiss as Mr. and Mrs.

Here are some photos from 4 years ago. Thanks for the memories!

Good Things

Sorry it has taken me so long to update the blog. Bradley and I and our families have been super busy getting ready for the baby. With two weeks before I am supposed to start back at school, I have been trying to cram things in. We have had a lot going on, but have gotten a lot done.

Last week, my parents came and stayed and helped finish getting everything ready in the nursery, my mom did all of Ava's laundry, they helped store stuff in our attic, my mom cleaned our floors, and my dad did some yard work. They did a ton and we really appreciate all their help. They also stripped all the wallpaper down in our upstairs bathroom (which was amazing!). Thanks so much for all you did!

My mother-in-law got the curtains ready for Ava's room, check them out because they look awesome!

The shelf was hung by my dad while they were visiting. With these curtains, the room really looks complete!

I went back to the doctor on Friday and will now be going every week. I am 34 weeks along (6 weeks left!) and things look good except my blood pressure was up again. Please keep me in your prayers because I really need it to get back down. On Friday she will see me again and if it is still up, she will most likely put me on medicine.

So, today I will leave you with a picture of my 34 week belly. Hope you all have had a great weekend and I will try to post more this week! Love ya'll!
