AnD GrOWiNg aNd gRoWiNG!

I can't believe the difference from my previous belly shot pose to now. My belly doesn't seem to be growing at a rapid pace, but from looking at the pictures it obviously is! The baby is moving around like crazy, especially at bedtime. Derek still hasn't felt him move, but I feel him all the time. It is such an amazing feeling, except for at 3:00am, then it is a little annoying. I suppose the baby is just getting me ready for all the times I will be waking up in the middle of the night with him. The baby and I are both doing fine. I seem to have tons of energy these days. I have been putting most of that energy to good use getting the nursery ready and preparing for my up and coming volleyball season. I will try to remember to add a photo of the nursery for my next post. By the way we have finally settled on a name...Mackson "Mack" Derek King!

BaByMoOn!

Derek has pretty much decided I am no longer allowed to read baby magazines! He thinks they give me too many crazy ideas. That all started when a couple of months ago I told him we had to go on a "Babymoon!" Of course he had no idea what a "babymoon" was. I informed him that a "babymoon" is a well known tradition of the parents going on one last vacation together before the baby arrives. He disagreed with the "well known" part, but after a little pleading he finally saw things my way.

We just returned from a very fun and relaxing week in Florida. We spend five days at my Grandparents condo in St. Petersburg and then headed to Orlando for two days. We spent our days in St. Pete sampling great restaurants and relaxing by the pool. While in Orlando we hit up Hollywood Studio and then on the 4th of July we visited Epcot. All of the scenery at Disney was amazing but the fireworks were unbelievable! We stayed at The Boardwalk in a magical two story suite. We had a wonderful time. Though he complains about the "babymoon" I think that deep down he is a believer!
