Pregnancy Update


I'll be 7 months (28 weeks pregnant) this Friday. While a lot has happened and some days feel long, it seems like this pregnancy is whizzing by. I am so excited to hold Juliette Grace in my arms, but I am feeling pensive and reflective as her birth draws closer. Here are some of my thoughts:

- If Juliette decides to come on time, we only have a little more than 12 weeks with just the three of us in our home.
- I'm more scared of labor than I was with Belle (I guess because I know what to expect...)
- What will Juliette look like? On Friday, my doctor told me she's small (not unhealthy or anything). I told my doc that Belle was a week overdue and 6.5 pounds and my MD told me that Juliette will probably be a little baby too.
- I CAN'T believe that Belle is almost three. I remember the day she was born... (enjoy the picture above).

The Five






Jackson and I are going to celebrate our 5 year anniversary this Friday. Five years. I can definitely say that I love Jackson a billion times more (or a really really high number) than I did on our wedding day. He is awesome. Here are five reasons why I love Jackson Perdue:

1. He loves God and lives out his faith.
2. He makes me want to be a better person (Christ-follower, student, teacher, mom, citizen, etc.) because he's always striving to better himself.
3. He makes me laugh- a lot.
4. He's an incredible dad (his two daughters are two of the luckiest girls on this earth).
5. I love the way he loves me.
