GETTING READY FOR BABY





The Smith side of the family gathered around for two weeks awaiting the birth of the newest grandchild. She liked it so much in there, she did not want to come out! We all gathered together at Karen's Uncle Rickey's house four days before the baby arrived for a low country boil. We had a great time. My belly was about to bust and my clothes were pulling at the seams. The kids had a water balloon fight that ended up with Grandpa Smith (Karen's dad) getting wet along with Uncle Walter and last but not least...Walter pored a 5 gallon bucket full of cold well water on me, nine months pregnant! I thought I was going to go into labor. The family made guesses at how big our baby would be and Stacy ended up with the bragging rights. Read the baby blog to learn more about the birth!

Even at 40 weeks and "pulling at the seams," you were beautiful!
