28 Weeks

I am growing and growing. I do believe that I get bigger everyday and I am not sure my skin will stretch much farther but when I awake there appears to be a bigger belly than the day before. We have a Dr.'s appointment on January 4th and I will have to do my glucose test. I am looking forward to my time off for the Christmas holidays.

Picture Time!

My Mother got a gift Certificate to Portrait Inovations for her birthday and
we just now went and got the pics made. These are just a few of them.
We went the day before Christmas Eve and it was crowded! Everything went pretty smoothly and quickly though.

Away in a Manger

My nephew Ward came over to the house today and I had him help me set up my nativity scene. My Grandmother (Marnie) gave me this set when I was younger and I know she would love that Ward help me put it out. It is also sentimental to me b/c it is sitting on a hutch that once belonged to Scott's Grandmother. Family is so special and Scott and I have both been blessed.

Hadley Elizabeth Judd


My Mom and I made a quick trip up to Kentucky to see the newest addition to our family. This is Haldey Elizabeth Judd and she is the daughter of my cousins Alicia and Kin. She is a beautiful baby and I never even heard her cry. I can't wait for her and John Thomas to meet. Alicia and I got to spend some quality time together and do our favorite thing which is shop. They will be down here sometime after Christmas and I am sure she will look totally different. I can't wait to see her and hold her again. She looks so much like Alicia to me in the bottom left picture.

Prego Picture

I realized I had not posted a picture of my belly and I. I went to the Dr. on Wednesday and everything seems to be on schedule and I actually feel better now than I have the entire time (not that I ever really felt bad). I will try to do better at posting and keeping everyone updated. I am going to Bowling Green, KY in the morning to see my cousin Alicia and her new baby girl Hadley. I am sure I will have plenty of pictures to post.

Early Christmas Present


Our sweet Libby finally got another bed. She had a bed she was very attached to up until last year. She let her sick brother Blue borrow it one day and he tore it up. She has really taken to her new bed though and has even had to run Mr. Black off of it.

Kitties


Sorry about Mr. Black's vulgar position but this is how he insists on lying around the house. I do believe he thinks we have cleared out the back bedroom for his own lounging pleasure. Hopefully there will soon be some furniture, new paint, and curtains in the room. I hope Black won't be too dissappointed.
Miss Chitty has become obssessed with getting in the laundry basket but thankfully she is only gettting in the dirty clothes.

Scott Jr.



I got another ultrasound today and they made us a video that I am trying to figure out how to download. You can't really tell in this picture but John Thomas looks a lot like Scott. Well, he looks as much like Scott as he can at this stage. Maybe next time we see him we will be able to tell if there is any "Surtees" in him at all.

Almost Finished


Well we finally got the computer room moved and almost finished. We still have to put up the curtains and move a few things around but for the most part the room is done. The chair in the corner belonged to my late grandparents and I am thinking about getting it recovered. We are going to get started on nursery in the weeks to come.

John Thomas


First of all I though I would let everyone know that Scott decided he did not like the dash in John-Thomas so we will now be spelling our son's name with no dash in the middle (I liked it, but not enough to really put up a fight for it). He is already getting some presents and everything is so cute. The bottom picture is of one of Scott's shirts and a little shirt we bought for John Thomas. I can't wait to see him in it.

My "Handyman" strikes again!

We are moving our study/den to the front of our house so that John Thomas' room can be in the back of the house. I wish I had some before pictures b/c Scott has been working hard to get everything in order. He has painted and pulled up the carpet so we could have hardwood flooring in that room (It was already under the carpet). Of course everytime we do something new to our house we have obstacles in the way. After Scott got all of the carpet pulled up we realized there was paint splattered ALL over the floor. It wasn't really in our budget to refinish the hardwoods so Scott decided to try to get the paint up himself. He spent 6 hours on Saturday with some Goo Gone, a putty knife, a rag, and fine steelwool cloth cleaning the paint off of the floor. As you can see in the "before" and "after" picture he was successful in making everything look good. What would I do without him?

My Sweet Dad


These are roses that were sent to me from my Dad. The day after I found out we were gonna have a boy I came home to find them on my front porch. I know everyone thinks they have the best Dad in the world but when I say it I mean it, he is so good at making me feel special. Thanks Dad!

It's a ........................

Thank you Mandy!


This is a picture of the BEST pickles in the world. For those of you who know me, you know that my whole life I have eaten tons and tons of pickles (it has nothing to do with me being pregnant). Mandy's Nanny makes homemade pickles and I haven't had any since college. On Wednesday Mandy brought me this jar filled to the top and I have managed to almost eat them all. They are DELICIOUS! Thanks again Mandy.

Before Jeff's Wedding

We went to 2 weddings this past weekend and we have one to go to the next two weekends. Seems like everyone we know is getting married or having a baby. Saturday after the tea we went to our friend Jeff's wedding. It was beautiful and the food was great. Kim's wedding was on Sunday and it was pretty too, they had a pasta station that I LOVED. I will post more pics from the upcoming weddings whenever I get a chance. You better get used to seeing this black dress because I plan on wearing it to both weddings. You gotta get your use out of maternity clothes!

Hadley's Tea

Here are a few pictures from My cousin Alicia's baby tea that we had this past Saturday. Baby Hadley should make her appearance sometime in mid-late November, I can't wait to meet her. Alicia had a great turn out and it was lots of fun. I enjoyed getting to see her open up all of her "girlie" presents. I don't kow yet if we will have some hand me down from Miss Hadley or not. I still haven't felt the baby kick and I really have no feeling about whether it is a boy or girl. No matter what someone is going to be dissapointed, my nephew Ward thinks it is a boy and ALL of my dance students say "it better be a girl". I actually only have 1 student that said she would still be happy even it was a boy. Time will tell, only 9 more days!

New Picture

This is a picture of me and Scott's cousin (my cousin-in-law???) from last weekend. I'm not really quite as big as I look in this picture but I am getting there. I should have tons of pictures from this weekend because we have lots going on. I have my cousin Alicia's baby tea, Jeff Stevens wedding, and Kim Darabaris' wedding. I'll be sure to post pics on sunday night or monday morning.

Fishing

On Sunday Scott finally had a day where he had nothing to do. After catching up on some much needed rest he got a fishing rod (I didn't even know we owned one) and went to the little creek beside our house. He didn't even get any bites although he wasn't out there very long. I managed to catch some moss and plants. Maybe he will have better luck next time.

Boy or Girl

I have an appointment on the 25th of October to hopefully find out the gender of our child. I haven't really had any feelings about what I think it is. If it is a boy his name will be John-Thomas Surtees Pruitt (His first name will be John-Thomas and he will go by both names and his middle name will be Surtees). John after Scott's Dad, Thomas after my Dad, and of course Surtees is my maiden name. If we have a baby girl her name will be August Lee and we of course will just call her August. The name August is after our friend Augie (his real name is August) and Lee is after my brother and that is also Jason (Scott's brother) middle name. I guess no matter what our child will have namesake's.
Scott won't be home to go the appointment with me (tear) so I will have to think of a way to suprise him when he gets home later that night. I am SO ready for him to be at home during the week and the weekends. He is such a hard worker.

Our sweet Libby

We FINALLY got a new camera and I have been snapping away. Here are just a couple pictures of our dog Libby. I got her when I lived in Auburn and she will turn 10 in February. She is really starting to show her age in her face and her slow pace. She is SO smart and is a little possesive, so we aren't quite sure how she will react to having a baby around the house.
I caught her in our extra bedroom laying on the bed. This is the 1 room I don't allow her in but she seems to go in there as soon as I leave the house. Her Dad isn't very good at helping me out with this rule, when I showed him this picture he just said "she looks so cute curled up on the bed". What am I going to do?!?

Me and ALL my pregnant friends!


OK, well I don't have pictures of ALL of my friends that are pregnant at the moment. I am missing a picture of Lori and Kim. If I forgot anyone I am sorry. I seem to have mush for brains these days and I can't remember a thing. To make matters worse these pictures are old but they are the only ones I have. I think we are all in need of a girls night out, I will get to planning. Lori is due in October, Rachael in January, Angel in February, and then me in March. We have some busy months ahead us!!!
I have a full week this week. I will be teaching dance on monday, tuesday, wednesday, and thursday. Friday night is the 30th anniversary of Southland Electric (the electric Co. where Scott works),and I will take some pictures and add them soon. I hope everyone is doing well!
