The doggies love her, the pug is her constant protector:

24 Weeks!
I realized today that it's been way too long since I updated this!! Azzie turned 24 weeks yesterday! She's getting quite big and strong- Jordan can even feel her kicks now! These are the pics I've taken since I've last updated:
The ribbon is a travelling ribbon that the girls in my online Due Date Club (everyone is due in Sept/Oct) are doing, we send it to one person at a time and take a picture with it. This little ribbon is going around the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia! I'm jealous!
Overall, I've been feeling great! I'm soooo glad it's finally summer and I can go float in the pool in my spare time. We are heading up to Minnesota this weekend to go visit my extended family for my Cousins graduation party- I haven't been up there in about 9 years so it's about time! I'm very excited to see everyone again. The 8 hour drive will be less than awesome, but oh well :)
I promise to update sooner next time!

Azzies Nursery
Luckily we have all sorts of crafty people that are able to help us with this project. My Father is making the toy box, which will look like the well in the book. Also, our friends Jared and Brittany do screen printing and are able to help us get the characters printed for the room. We found an amazing deal on a grass green shag rug, and had to scoop it up right then. Everything else we took pictures of to put together a mock up of how we want the nursery to look. Jordan is quite skilled with photoshop and put this together last night.
The dresser and changing area will be on the opposite wall. We've got our work cut out for us, but we can't wait to make it happen!

Our Little Azalea....
Her full name is Azalea ( a-ZAYL-yah) Loriann (after my mother) Alton. We will call her Azzie for short. If you're not familiar, Azalea is a flower:
...And there is also an adorable Louis Armstrong song about a girl named Azalea (has a long intro but stick with it- it's so cute, Jordan has already determined it to be the father-daughter dance song at her wedding :) ):

She's gotten SO BIG since we saw her last 2 months ago, you can really see her facial features now, and of course her awesome dance moves. She's going to be a dancer like her mama was, she's already practicing :) )
Most importantly, everything looked perfect. We're so grateful to have made it this far with no problems! Jordan keeps telling me not to wish the summer away but it's hard when A) I will be a whale this summer and B) We will get to meet Azzie in the Fall!
