Preparing...

for thanksgiving at our house. We have been so busy lately. I have several pics to post and will do so at a later time. But I thought I would post tonight. Since we moved back to Columbia we have had both sides of the family over along with GA's for Thanksgiving dinner. Casey has practice in the morning so it is easiest to have it at our house in the early evening. Everyone brings something so no one has to do everything. This past summer we picked tons of cherries off the cherry tree right outside our front door. I have never made a homemade pie or cobbler in my life but Casey and I decided at some point we would since we have all these great cherries. So the time has come. Casey decided that we should make cobbler or pie for Thanksgiving dinner. So last night (Monday) we made a cherry cobbler from a recipe he found online. It was pretty good. Then tonight (Tuesday) we made a cherry pie. I got the crust recipe from a friend in Manhattan and the filling recipe from Casey's mom. We did the latis (sp?) top and everything. It smells so good. But we decided we would wait until Thanksgiving dinner to cut it and see how it tastes. I can't wait to see how it turned out. It looks good, the true test will be the taste!! :) I will have to post pictures later. It was alot of fun the last 2 nights. All three of us, Casey, Harper, and I, in the kitchen making this together. Harper was a great help. She poured, she stirred, and tonight helped cut the pie crust for the latis (sp?).

IT'S A...

Baby update!

Had another drs appointment today. I have gained 4 pounds since last time. Baby is doing well. Heart beat was high 140s. We are following the same pattern as with Harper this time around. I was supposed to have my big ultrasound on Nov 24 and find out what we are having but I asked Dr Wilson if we could move it up. So she called Dr Grants office and I go MONDAY!!! I am so excited. Yes I know I am the baby here. I just want to know! :) So after 8:30am Monday morning we should know what the baby is. SO EXCITED!
