Is it Monday again already???

Truthfully I find 5 days of work with 2 days off less than ideal...It should be more fairly split :), right?
We just make the best with what we've got though, and that's what we did this weekend as well!

Friday night we went bowling...Saturday we took Maddie to Starbucks (our fur baby is pictured below) in the morning, went to a party with Eric's work crew (me observing tequila shots is not pictured) and had dinner with Judd & Kristy at Paco Taco...Sunday, I drove to Raleigh & back for my sister's baby shower while Eric played golf in Charlotte. Annie & I had a great few hours together -- lunch, pedicures, and the wonderful shower...She looks AMAZING with only 6 weeks to go -- I can only pray to look that good.

Also --I have got to mention how proud I am to call myself a HOKIE (by marriage) with their performance this weekend. They sure beat up on those Dookies, didn't they? Hopefully my Tarheels can do more of the same next Saturday -- cheer 'em on & wear your baby blue!

That's it from the Parker household for now....at least Monday offers 1 good thing -- the Bachelor is on tonight :)
xoxoxo --
Maddie!!!

Baby shower in Raleigh...The host (Sarah) made homemade ice cream & cupcakes! Amazing!
Martha Stewart is jealous I think....

This is Nicole -- my sister's step daughter.
See the shirt "I'm the BIG sister" -- too cute.

Doesn't she look fantastic?!

I LOVE Wednesdays!!

Yes, it might sound crazy, but I love Wednesdays!

I used to love Wednesdays because it was "Bring Your Own Mug Night" at Big Daddy's, $2 drafts & $.59 wings at Buffalo Wings N Rings, Modern Family on ABC, and of course, only 2 more days til the weekend!
NOW I love Wednesdays for a whole new reason. I turn "another week" pregnant every Wednesday. Eric takes my stomach picture. We get an email about the size of the baby, and now HE enjoys the $2 drafts and we still love Modern Family.

Today, I am 15 weeks pregnant...The baby is the size of an apple! I am attaching some stomach pictures from the last 3 weeks....It's sort of a baby bump, or an "ice cream/french fry" bump :) Hopefully you aren't looking at this before dinner --- ha!

OOOHHH & stay tuned! We find out the gender on St Patty's Day!! I think I'll make a countdown chain (like we had when I was in elementary school to count the days until school was out)...yes, it's juvenile but certain things just make me happy!

week 13

week 14

week 15 (today)
Love & Miss you all. Thanks for reading.
Megan, Eric, Maddie & "apple"

Welcome friends and family!

So as my first duty as a soon to be father I have decided we need a blog.....not only to show off my wife's growing belly, but as a way to connect with those of you that we may not see as much as we would like. Megan and I hope you enjoy this site and check in with us regularly. We miss you all!
