A GREAT G&G visit


Last weekend we had the pleasure of hosting Gavin's Great Grandpa and Grandma Macocha for three nights as they made their way back to IN from a month long stay in Fort Myers. Of course we loved our time together but it is never long enough. We played cards each night after Gavin was asleep. The women won the best of series in their favorite "hand and foot" card game and the guys took the overall win in Euchre. 

We enjoyed what we called "An Early Father's Day Dinner" out on Saturday at a fun place right on the water and then brunch on Sunday after church. Plus we snuck in a visit to the zoo! Enjoy some pictures of our adventures. 

Grandma enjoying the budgies.
Those silly birds thought Grandpa's shoelaces were food!
Gavin isn't sure this time about these guys.
Yep, definitely not a fan. He was okay until two of them started "fighting" for the food. Stefan thought it was funny that he flipped out.
Perfect for his Outback room!
See my boys and the monkey standing on the wire in the back? 
Dinner at Pensacola Beach.
"Whatchya talking about?"

Of course she is showing him how to wipe up the table.

Gavin actually loves this little book G&G bought him at dinner, he just wanted Mommy to read it to him I think.
Feeding the llamas, it is a two hand job, this was taken moments before they snagged the cup right out of his hand!
Gpa making friends with the giraffe!
The first night they arrived, Grandpa actually got down on the floor to play with the cars/truck they brought him.  Not bad for 92!
Sunday brunch.

FL Friends Showering us with Loads of Love

Image
I have to say I feel very grateful and blessed to have some great friends in FL. It makes it a bit easier being away from family knowing we have loving friends here who are genuinely excited about Baby Underwood's arrival and spending time with him/her. Three special girls, Calli, Libby and Natalie, planned an Aussie-themed shower to go with the nursery theme. It was adorable and all so appreciated. Thanks to them and all the ladies who were able to make it out for a Sunday afternoon dedicated to celebrating the pending arrival of Baby U. Much love! Hand-knit koala hat! Brooke - you are so good! Lots of our FL family. Aussie-themed cupcakes, and they tasted great, too! To see the full album check it out here . Our last appointment went well! I passed my gestational diabetes test, uterus measured well, heart beat of the baby was strong, my weight was still right on and blood pressure was ... well, it is okay compared to where it has been. One more appointment...

First Trimester Fun

LENGTH WARNING: Last post and this post are catching you up and will serve as a memory for us in the future, so we apologize they are a little long. Once we got home and settled from our European adventures we hunkered down while I fought daily fatigue, a decent amount of nausea, a few food aversions and a heightened sense of smell that often left me holding my noise and running away from its source. Our first doctor's appointment was scheduled for 8 1/2 weeks and it seemed like forever away. One huge blessing is working from home where I don't have to get ready or act "normal". Stefan and Andrew helped out with some cleaning, cooking and errands while I really took it down a notch. I normally have a hard time resting and relaxing and not accomplishing much in a day, so my July was a bit different. The first appointment was great for the most part. We got confirmation and even got an ultra sound. We could see it's little heart beating although we won...
