My Birthday Surprise!

Today is my 24th birthday! My co-workers decorated my desk with streamers, balloons, and a banner- and on of my best friends, Amanda Roshto, left a present for me and made me a banner with a crown and high heels on it! The present was a cloth with these words screen printed on it "SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY; In Greenville, they say "What Church do You go to?"; In Columbia, they say "Who's your family?"; and in Charleston, they say "What would you like to drink?"" LOL.. I LOVED it! :) Work also got me an icecream cake! YUM!! Thanks everyone!!! :)

Jenna's 1st Day of School

Jenna Jade went to her first day of 3K preschool at the Lutheran Church of Our Savior Day School on Tuesday, August 19, 2008. She was so very excited (she told me so 5 times from the back seat). Her favorite thing was picking out her "big kid" backpack and lunch box and she's quick to remind everyone that she now goes to "big kid school"!!! :) you can see all the pics of her first day at my drop shots...but below are a few! Her teacher, Mrs. Street, said that she is impressed with how excited Jenna is to be there, how attentive she is, and how well behaved she is during activities. We are so proud of our baby girl!!!!!!

Here's the class sign outside the door of her classroom.

here is Jenna's desk!

Baby Bean likes Surprises

The entire ride to the appointment, Jenna Jade was singing "I'm gonna see the baby! I'm gonna see the baby!!"...she was soooo excited!

Daddy, Sissy, Grandma Neesie, and Aunt Brandi were all there hoping for the answer to the BIG question! ......

Well- we now know that it is definitely a.... BABY! Legs crossed, knees tucked, and hands between the legs this baby was not in the mood to share anything at all with us! Soooo... it looks like baby bean really wants us to be surprised. But we will try to look again with a gender check on September 4th...and then our Greenville Tech ultrasound on September 18th....but alas, it depends all on if baby bean wants us to know!!

love ya'll!
