Update

Alden and I arrived home safe and sound about a week ago.  We spent the past few weeks down in Alabama at my grandparents.  Since then we've been busy trying to get back into the swing of things.  I'll update more on our trip later this week.  My mom is here now for a couple of days to help me put up some peaches.  We also invited her because Sawyer is gone this week, and wanted her to come spend some time at our house. 

I had a doctor's appointment a few days ago and all is going well with the baby.  She is definitely an active one.  My first appointment about a month ago, the doctor called her a "wild one" because she was moving so much when he tried to listen to her heart beat.  And this visit we learn that she's measuring a little big.  He said it's not too much to worry about and could be the way I'm carrying her, but all in all she's getting in her exercises.  Patrick likes to tease, that we were worried about Alden being too rough with her, but apparently she can hold her own.  We're getting more and more excited as the days go by.  I'm officially 30 weeks today.  I can't believe we are that close.  I haven't been very good about taking pictures of myself to document this pregnancy, but this is one from our trip.
