this wonderful group of ladies threw nora belle & me the most beautiful & loving shower! there were pink poms & poofs, colorful flowers & polka dot straws, & the sweetest "nora belle" banner. the food was delicious too with tasty chicken salad & little petit fours for dessert. all of the guests were invited to write wishes for miss nora belle that were an absolute joy to read. so many loved ones were there to make us feel oh so special.<br />

we won! boy, it was ugly but we won. & i didn't go into labor from all of the anxiety of the game. wins all around. nora belle & i had a little chat on friday discussing that most of our family was in dallas for the game, so it sure would be nice if she'd wait to make her appearance until after the game. i am very grateful she listened. <br />

he bought this super awesome, thick white primer to paint over the super glossy brown. we didn't have to sand it. we didn't have to de-gloss it. we just painted a couple of coats of the primer & that sucker was covered. it was impressive. <br />

october is one of my favorite months - the trees are beginning to change colors, the weather is beginning to get cooler, mums are on everyone's porches, pumpkin is an appropriate ingredient in everything, & our little girl's birthday is this month. <br />

one of blake's life goals is to break a guinness world record & OH MY GOSH we got to be apart of breaking one! the chiefs held the title for the loudest stadium in the world & the seahawks beat it by 0.1 points last year. chiefs kingdom once again won the title with a record of 142.2, beating the seawhawks by 4.6 points! go chiefs!<br />

nora belle had hiccups for the first time the other night! it was really funny to feel hiccups in my lower abdomen. she is still kicking away all the time. we think she is in the correct head down position with all of her kicking & pushing up top. good job, little girl.</div>

for one of our last family of two weekends, we watched football & grilled out & spent most of the day outside yesterday. it was an absolutely gorgeous day! i think i'm going to love kansas city in the fall. blake made havarti-stuffed burgers with roasted green chilies & caramelized balsamic onions. that were so delicious. & i made a roasted fall vegetable dish with butternut squash & red potatoes & rosemary & green apples. & tank ran around playing with his ball for hours. all in the beauty of our own backyard. oooh, the marvelous fall.</div>

blakey & i took our last trip to oklahoma before baby!! last time in norman before we are officially parents. crazy! & so exciting. we headed to our great state for the big ou vs tennessee game & my dear friend, cari's, baby shower. the game was absolutely fantastic - we got to tailgate with so many wonderful friends, see this year's intro video, laugh at me getting super nervous for each play, & cheer on the boys to a big victory. well done, fellas, well done. it should be a great football year.<br />

this weekend, dave & beau came to visit us! we had an incredible dinner at <a href="http://gramanddun.com/" target="_blank">gram & dun</a> with amazing asian pig wings, delicious fried catfish with greens & mashed potatoes, & the most ridiculously large tomahawk ribeye. the evening was filled with wonderful beverages {even a mocktail for me!}, lots of football talk, & fantastic company.<br />

on sunday, we went to nora belle & my first NFL game & blake's first chiefs game. it was absolutely one of the best days. we all got to go on the field for pregame & watch the players come out & warm up. we took tons of photos, acted like we were under the review booth hood, & marveled at the size of these guys. it was an experience we will never forget. the boys geeked out the entire time & stood there with a huge smile on my face. an amazing sunday!<br />

32 weeks means only a few football saturdays are in between us & our little girl arriving! it also means miss nora belle is growing about a half a pound a week. & my nora belly is growing right along with her. i've learned about being crazy hot for no reason, that my two options for hunger are either "i am starving!" or "i am ridiculously full!", that singing a few lines to a song could lead me to being out of breath, that just because i went to the bathroom five minutes ago, that does not mean i don't need to go right now, & that God is getting me ready to take care of my little one by waking me up every night. & you know what, her little kicks make it all worth it.<br />

norabelle's grandpa & samma came to kc to visit us this weekend! & oh boy were we productive. they brought up my grandmother's china cabinet that is going to {eventually} be painted & displayed in our dining room. the fellas built a 12' by 5' raised garden in our backyard. nora belle's nursery is almost finished! that, my friends, you will have to wait to see. & with all of that doing, we had time to eat at a couple of kansas city staples - oklahoma joe's & stroud's fried chicken! a most lovely weekend indeed.<br />

with 30 weeks down & 10ish more to go, prenatal yoga has become my best friend. i wasn't super into yoga before being pregnant, but it is now one of the highlights of my week. as it turns out, it's not exactly comfortable growing a human inside of you, carrying extra weight everywhere, having your organs & nerves squished by the little miracle inside of you. {totally worth it, just not always comfortable.} so learning to stretch & move & work different muscles to help me more comfortably carry this little baby makes me a much happier momma. as well as the camaraderie with other pregnant women. it's nice to hear that all of this crazy stuff you are going through is totally normal.<br />
<br />
so thank you, prenatal yoga, for making my pregnancy oh so much better! & thank you, julie byrd, for convincing me i had to go. <br />
<br />

third trimester is here! & that means nora belle is going to be here soon! we cannot believe it but are incredibly excited. little one is showing her personality more & more. anytime something pushes against my belly - be it my purse, tank, or the ultrasound device - nora belle kicks back it. this little girl does not want anything all up in her space. that or she wants to say "hello!" back. <br />

we got to see her beautiful little face again this week! i cannot believe how much she's grown since we saw her 10 weeks ago! the sonographer estimated her weight at 2 lb 13 oz, right around the 50th percentile. she is doing great & all of her measurements checked out normally. keep growing strong & healthy, little one!<br />
<br />
second trimester certainly left with as much gusto as it came in. i'm relearning all about this exhaustion from nothing thing & the random immediate need to eat every once in awhile. i am truly thankful for this time to rest & take care of myself & nora belle & get the things accomplished we need to. & thankful for a wonderful husband who understands & appreciates it all.<br />
<br />
love love,<br />

it's my last week of my second trimester! oh my goodness, time is flying. this week, nora belle is about the size of a head of cauliflower & weighs about two pounds. she is learning to sleep for awhile at a time & then waking up to have a party in my belly. you can even sometimes see her kicking! <br />

those pregnancy cravings everyone always talks about have finally begun. a few relatively normal foods sound simply amazing & refuse to exit my brain like ice cream & coffee & sweet treats of any kind. but one quite random, not something i ever eat, keeps popping up - taco bell. taco bell?? really?? is that even food? so one day last week, i told my husband of my random cravings, & he picked up taco bell for us for dinner. sweetest man in the world. & a delicious dinner it was. hopefully, we can keep those not-really-food meals to a minimum.<br />
<br />
oh! my belly button is getting oh so funny looking. it has squished itself into a little flat indented button with a nose on top. confession: i have always disliked how my belly button looks. it was this super deep hole my entire life, like a hole to the middle of nowhere. so i was pretty excited about pregnancy changing it. now... not so sure this is better! it's certainly not worse. it's a funny little thing, pregnancy.<br />
<br />
& to make your day a million times happier, please watch this video of my wonderful nephew:<br />

our four years in sweet home birmy have come to a close. it's been an incredible four years of ups & downs & beginnings & endings. blakey learned how to be an excellent physician. i learned how to be a pasty chef & actually love my job. we learned how to live in a city we knew nothing about. we learned to make friends, truly amazing lifelong friends. & we even learned how to be husband & wife. <br />

1. <b>be selfish with your marriage</b>. learn to put your spouse & your marriage first before all of the other things that are in your life - work, friends, even other family. it might sound rude, but it's so important to start there & learn to live out your life together. i will point out a very wise thing my father-in-law said to me before blake & i got married: when marrying a doctor, you have to be ok with coming in second. you are always his first priority, but you are going to come in second sometimes. this is also a good thing to remember.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. <b>find an amazing group of married friends with similar beliefs about marriage</b>. i cannot tell you how lucky & blessed we were to find these amazing friends. not only because they are each awesome but because we all understood how important our spouses were to each other. it made it even easier to put our marriages first.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3.<b> marriage is a choice</b>. a wise friend of ours once told me that the key to a good marriage is to wake up each day & choose your spouse. sometimes it's easy & sometimes it's hard. but it's always a choice.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
4. <b>even if you love your job, it's ok to love home more</b>. i always wanted a job that i looked forward to going to on monday mornings. after having my dream job for the last three years, if you asked me if i'd rather be at work or at home, i'd choose home every time. & you know what, that's ok.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
5. <b>please don't ever say "i don't have time" or "i don't have a choice"</b>. you have time. you get to choose how to spend your time. & you have a choice. just because you don't like your options, it doesn't mean you don't have a choice. </div>

four years ago, i never would've dreamed it would be so hard to leave birmingham. this city with its beautiful trees & hills, its cool summer nights, its amazing food, its southern hospitality, & its incredible people. birmy, you've been good to us. </div>

& because you know i couldn't leave this city we love without having a "final meal" {& telling you about it} - our last meal was at <a href="http://www.sawsbbq.com/" target="_blank">saw's</a>. a pulled pork baker with lots of delicious saw's sauce & the best fried okra there is. technically, we ate our "final" saw's meal at least six or seven times, including twice in the last week. each one was absolutely incredible. <br />

the halfway point brought with it the most amazing thing i've ever experienced in my life - nora belle's first kick!! i was laying on the couch with tanky all snuggled up to my belly & blakey by my side when i felt the weirdest little thing inside of me. i sat straight up with my eyes gigantically wide. blakey said i had the funniest look on my face that he has certainly never seen before. "oh my goodness, what was that?! i think i felt her kick!" forget what people say about it feeling like butterflies fluttering, it feels like a fish. a fish was swimming around in my belly. my sweet little nora belle fish. i am so happy to feel your little feet in my "nora belly".<br />

week 19 meant my last week at my beloved baking job. urban standard became my home away from home in birmy. i started working there in only our second month in alabama, when i knew almost no one in the state. over the years, blake & i met so many friends at the shop and felt much more at home. after graduating from pastry school, i was enabled to create my dream job. i could not be more grateful for the experience.<br />

over my last week, i made so many of my favorite treats, customers' favorite treats, & a few fancy things i had been wanting to try. but my last day was purely selfish with my favorite espresso donuts, my favorite chocolate chip orange zest cookies, & my favorite spicy mexican chocolate cake bites. blakey & i even shared one a piece. & they were delicious :)<br />

our anatomy ultrasound was this week! blakey & i got to see our little baby girl for twenty whole minutes! we saw the important parts of her brain & the four chambers of her heart. she has an adorable little nose & lips {no cleft lip}. she sucked her thumb & grabbed her little bitty feet with her little bitty hands. miss nora belle is growing big, measuring sizes of about 19 1/2 weeks & weighing 10 ounces. apparently, little us made a big baby.<br />
