A busy week!

On the ferry boat headed to the island with her little friend Alexa.
Being silly with Sammy's toys at the lake cottage.

Beautiful flowers all over the island. Can you tell it was chilly?


Well, this one was from this week but I just had to include it. She put her makeup on ALL by HERSELF!!


Ellie's finished room:-)




Wow, time has been flying by and I am officially 32 week pregnant today which means officially 8 weeks to go but we will induce a little early so really only weeks from Monday. YEAH!! Ellies room is finished now. I am waiting on some little pom poms to hang in the corner but other than that we are DONE!
We had a great vacation with the Bremers last week and weekend up in Michigan. Julies family has a lake cottage we stayed in and it was wonderful. We took our first trip to Mackinac Island which was tons of fun. There are no cars on the island. We got there by ferry. While on the island we rode bikes. I had my first tandem (spelling) ride which was funny. In the back you just have no control but on the positive, if you want to take a break for a while the driver doesn't really know. (unless going uphill) haha I tried it once or twice but I did try to help most of the time. It was a 8 mile loop and I was so proud of myself for doing it prego. I was swollen that evening but it was worth it. The high on the island that day was 67 and I loved every minute of it. It has just been too hot this summer.
We are headed out again on Wed. We are going to NC to see family for a wonderful Labor Day weekend. It is a 12 hour trip so please pray for me in that I survive. I was hoping to fly but prices just got too high. So into the car with lots of pillows and blankets. We are checking up on Miss Ellie one last time before we head out. I am getting a 4D ultrasound on Tuesday. I can't wait to see my little bundle of joy. Charles has been too busy at work to take time off to go with me so Mom is going to go. He got to see the first one or else I would have been sad. I think he is looking forward to some time off as he has been working his tail off. He has pretty much worked every Sat. we have been home in months and has been pulling a lot of 12 to13 hour days. I am so greatful for such a wonderful hardworking husband that makes it possible for me to stay home with Isabella and soon to be Ellie. It is my dream come true. Enjoy the pics from Mackinac and some more of Ellie's room.
