The Start of a Modeling Career Maybe?

Maternity· Personal

29 Dec

I’ve never been overwhelmed by an ultrasound image before. I’ve had many shown to me by friends and I just didn’t think too much past it other than congratulations at the time. I now have a new appreciation for this technology, and will have a new excitement for anyone who shows me their ultrasounds in the future. I guess it’s just one of those things you have to experience for yourself before you truly understand the excitement that a couple goes through and is experiencing when they proudly whip out the ultrasound image from their wallet to show off their growing child.

Here is the 1st image that Jason and I saw of our baby; this was taken at 12 weeks. Baby J is 2 inches long here, and healthy from what they can diagnose from the images. At this point the baby has ears, eyes, a heart and strong heart beat, and fingers and toes that have begun to seperate. Plus much more. I hate it is a little more fuzzy than the original, but it will do. We both were just fascinated beyond what words can explain. Just wanted to share with everyone, as well as have documentation down the road to look back on. We go for the 2nd ultrasound January 5. I will be 17 weeks along at that point. I can’t wait to see the progression of this little one. Of course, it will probably be forever and a day before I make it to another scanner so we can share the progression.

Stay in the know!

    Awesome, I’m so happy for y’all! that is a really clear picture, too, I will agree.

    Our first ultrasound was at 6.5 wks and our next will be Jan 19 (20 wks) and that’s when we find out the sex! Are y’all going to find out?

🌻🍉 Summer Photo Dump 6 🍉🌻

Mid-July we got the family together out on the river! We got all set up on a sandbar for the day, to be able to just chill- have a picnic and let the littles play their hearts out. Well… that was our hopes at least. 🤦‍♀️🫠 About an hour later, ALLLLL the boats showed up (group of friends) and just beached it right where we were swimming with the kids. I will never understand this… I am just of the mindset if you missed out on the sandbar, you missed out. Not… “well, we’ll just squeeze right in here on top of y’all.” But whatever. 😵‍💫 AmIright? Is that not the unwritten, understood law of the river rats? 🤣

Beach days are the best days!!! We were able to make 2 different day trips to the coast this summer. 

1. We are thankful for sweet friends who allow us to crash their family camping vacation for a day! 🤣 

2. And we are thankful for another group who are willing to up and haul their families to the coast for a day, too! 🤗

Two of my fellow Clemson forestry/ wildlife pals and I managed to take that girls’ trip we had been chatting about for a while! It was so good for the soul!!! We went owling at night, and just looking for all the critters we could find. 😁

Our old-soul, mancub hit a milestone birthday this summer. So, as an early birthday present, we hesitantly (😅) decided to take him and a friend to a Hank Jr. concert, since they are both big fans. Our thought process: “Hank Jr. is old now… sure his music is timeless, but it’s bound to draw an older, more calm crowd nowadays.” NOPE. 😆🥴 

The trip morphed into a group trip with the friend’s parents and sister, and my dad joined us, too! All was well until a thunderstorm sent everyone to the concessions area where we were packed in like sardines for TWO HOURS to avoid the lightening and rain best we could. 😳 Well, you can only imagine most people there had only one thing to do during the two hour wait, so that by the time we could return to our seats, it was quite the scene. 🙈 Our sweet, sheltered homeschooled children were awakened to some of the ways of the world that night, for sure. 🤣🥴 Gracious!!! 

But alas, Hank came out on stage and was GREAT, even still as an older man in his 70’s. He played alllll the instruments, and even still could throw his leg up on the piano! 🤣😳

The boys ended their first year of fishing for PAC last April in 10th place; which was amazing for them! They overcame many obstacles and learned to fish better as partners. This particular tournament happened to fall on Jason’s birthday (he’s their boat captain), so our friends camping close-by helped him celebrate. 🤣😁

(We enjoyed it to the fullest and it FLEW by; so, slowing down to make posts didn’t happen. I don’t even know how it’s almost September. 🥴)

In April, we ventured to Beaufort with my family to see the Blue Angels in action. 🤩 They were awesome to see in person!
