One month old!

Austin is one month old! Here he is wearing a size 3 month outfit! He is so long and we really like the onsies that button or zip down the front so this is just what fits :) He is such a cutie!

16 weeks 5 days!

Belly progress! Morning sickness is slowly easing. Just one week and two days away from our ultrasound to find out the sex of the baby!

9 week ultrasound

We had our first ultrasound today. It was just wonderful! The baby's heartbeat was 185. Surprisingly, you can actually make out a good bit. Still feeling quite sick but I know it will be worth it!

Wedding Day and Honeymoon!

Kyle and I got married at Ocean Isle Beach on 9-10-11. It was amazing, it was sunny, Aaron did a great job with the music, Kyle's mom made a beautiful cake, and Aunt Margaret rocked the table decorations and flower arrangements. The Isles restaurant catered the event and everything was so beautiful. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful setting than the beach. Then we went on our honeymoon and that really topped the cake! It was sunny and no hurricanes...We went on a 7 day Caribbean cruise that had four ports of call: Half Moon Cay in the Bahamas, St Thomas in the Virgin Islands, San Juan Puerto Rico, and Grand Turk in the Turk and Caicos islands. It was amazing. We did tours of the islands, went snorkeling, swam in the crystal clear waters, and did a tour of El morro in San Juan. It was great!

Biloxi, MS and New Orleans, LA trip

Kyle and I drove down last Saturday (the 29th of July) to visit Kari and Kyle in their home at Kessler Air Force base. We are leaving Wednesday to go back to Gastonia. While down we visited the Hard Rock casino, the beach, and Kyle and I also went to New Orleans. In New Orleans we went to the WWII museum and visited the French quarters where we walked down Bourbon street, had lunch, and saw Jackson's square. Here are some pictures of the visit.

House Update and Beach Trip

Kyle and I went to the beach with the group, leaving on Saturday and coming back Wednesday. Kim, Justin, Kyle, and I rode togeather. Lindy, Brian, and Addisyn pulled up just after we arrived. We had a fun time! My favorite attraction we visited was the Bodie Island lighthouse. It was much larger than I had imagined it would be. I enjoyed spending time with Addisyn and Cayden and getting to see everybody. Here are some pics.

Sorry it has been so long since my last blog. Since that one we sold the Mt Holly house thus completing our first real house flip! We moved into a smaller house in Gastonia, and now, after about 4 months of hard work, it is finally just about finished on the inside. We plan to stay in this house while we flip others, rather than having to live in them while the repairs are underway. We bought another jet ski, this one 1000 ccs, and we are selling the slow one. We are going to be flying over the water on the lake this summer! The new job at BB&T wasn't going so well, so I decided to make a change and go into Real Estate! Now I work for the Buddy Harper Team at Remax A One Real Estate in Belmont, NC. I have only two classes left at UNCC and I will have a masters degree in December and then I hope to be able to teach part time at a community college.

Updates!

Ok, so I got a new position at BB&T where I will be moving to the East branch in front of target and have my own office! It is the bilingual branch so watch out amigos! Kyle and I are putting the house on the market tomorrow. I wanted to post a few more pics of the inside in progress and all finished up, but I have not taken a picture of the finished outside yet. It looks so good! (I hope to post one of the outside soon though...but then you know how I am.)
