Thank you Thomas Crossroads Elementary!

I am so thankful to teach in a school full of terrific teachers.  They have become like a second family to me, and they are a source of daily encouragement in my life.  My 1st grade team hosted a baby shower for me, Steve, and our "Love Bug."  The flowers, food, and friends were delightful, and I am grateful to my wonderful team for doing such a fantastic job planning everything.  THANK YOU TCE!

THANK YOU!

Chris Cicci and Fran Madsen were kind enough to host a baby shower this past weekend at the Cicci's gorgeous new home. The thoughtfulness and generosity shown to Baby Gladden at the shower blew me away, and I was so thankful for some time to spend with an amazing group of fantastic Auburn moms. Thank you to everyone involved for a fun baby afternoon.

Ultrasound Pictures

These ultrasound pictures were taken at 20 weeks.  Ahhh what a cute blur!  It was so exciting to see the baby moving around on the screen.  I think we have a very active little darling!

Visit to Charleston

What a fun weekend!  Erin's friend Jane entertained us in Charleston, SC.  She lives in a dreamy neighborhood and took us to lots of fun places.  We ate yummy food at The Glass Onion and took a cold walk at wintery Folly Beach.  We also went to a classy jazz show and met up with old friends Matthew and Amy.  

Big News in the Smokies

We took a fun weekend with our friends in the Smokies at the end of October.  The hike up to Chimney Tops was fantastic.  They shared some great news (WEDDING BELLS!), and we shared our news too.  This was everyone's reaction to hearing we are going to be parents.

Pregnant Erin in February

Steve took this picture this weekend.  I am currently about 6 and a half months pregnant.  We still have a ways to go!

Pregnant Erin in November

I was about 3 months pregnant when Steve took this picture in the fall.  I thought I was big then... ha!
