Statement Necklace
I got on GroopDealz today and there is an awesome deal on a very cute necklace! If you are a member, you should go check it out...if you aren't a member, you should become one! Below is the link to the Necklace...hopefully it works since this post is from my phone. I'll also attach a picture below so you can see just how cute it is! Best part about it, it comes in 12 different colors! If it were up to me, I'd order one of each...not sure the hubs would like that though! It was a tough call because the yellow, black and turquoise were all cute, but I decided to go with the turquoise...which would you pick?

Fun Saturday!
We had a very fun day today! Nate took his younger cousin Brad fishing so I decided to meet up with my Mom and Aunt Nini for breakfast at Panera! The boys don't like Panera much so mom and I go there every chance we get! After we finished breakfast, we headed to the Bentonville Square to walk around with Porter for a bit. If you havent been up there on a Saturday morning to their Farmer's Market you should go...they have lots of fun things to look at. Porter even got to put his piggies in the fountain with Grandmama for the first time! After we left the square, mom and I stopped in our FAVORITE shop, The Perfect Choice, to see Mrs. Gwen. She hadn't met Porter yet so we took him up to meet her! We decided after that to go visit my Memaw and run to lunch with her. We decided on Mama Z's! After dropping Memaw back off after lunch, we headed home and are now having a movie night with Daddy! What a great Saturday we have had!
Tomorrow is decoration with Nate's family and then we are going to supper with our best friends Maranda, Nick and Miss Bela! Hope you are all having a good weekend!
(I know this post is boring but I have GOT to get better at blogging about our daily life so I can look back on these posts in a few years and remember what we were up to.)

1 month old!
Porter, you are one month old today! Some things to remember about your first month...
- You were up to 9 lbs at your 1 week dr. Appointment! Your daddy and I tried to weigh you on our scale and if it's right, you are closer to 11 lbs now!
- You are wearing size 1 diapers (Pampers only, you are too big for size 1 in the other brands!)
- You are wearing size 0-3 month clothes mostly, although you did fit into a few size 3-6 month onsies this week!
- We made the switch to formula last week and you are LOVING it...you kept spitting up after mommy would feed you and I couldn't figure out what I was eating that made you sick. We tried some formula and you loved it and have kept it down well.
- You were a little jaundice at first but it wasn't anything a little sunlight didn't help
- You are sleeping in your bassinet next to mommy and daddy's bed. You are a grunter so I hear all of your little noises!
- You usually wake up 1-2 times per night to feed (usually around 2:30a and 5:30a)
- You did sleep all through the night for mommy and daddy the first night we had you on formula! We were so excited!
- We usually have you to sleep around 10p
- You are such a happy baby! You don't fuss unless you are hungry, getting you diaper changed (sometimes) and bath time!
- We have spoiled you too much so you don't really like being put down...you always want mommy to hold you (which is ok with me!)
- You don't really like your paci much. We have tried to give it to you a couple of times and you usually take it for a minute than spit it out.
- The first night you were born, you held your head up and looked around! You have since then been learning head and neck control! It's amazing to us how much strength you already have for a 1 month old!
- You love your hands. They are always up by your face. You play with them all the time! You even sleep with your arms up above your head too...you get that from mommy!
- You got to celebrate your first 4th of July with us which just so happens to be mommy's favorite holiday! You were so cute in your red, white and blue!
- Your grandparents are CRAZY about you...I don't mean a little either...they think that you hung the moon and none of them can go long without coming to see you! We have had more company this past month than we ever have!
Precious Porter, I can't believe an entire month has gone by with you already! It seems like we were just at the hospital meeting you! You have blessed our family in so many ways and I can't wait to watch the little man you grow in to! We love you to the moon and back baby boy!

Introducing....
Porter Lee Avey!!!
Porter was born June 12, 2012 at 8:36p weighing in at 8 lbs. 10 oz. And was 21 3/4 inches long! I have been MIA from the blog because I have been spending every waking minute with this precious boy! I was not even close to prepared for how much I'd love this little person but he is the most precious gift We have ever been blessed with! Thursday he will be one month old already so I'll be sure to put up his one month post. Please enjoy the mass amount of pictures below of his first month!
(this post is from my phone so sorry if it shows up funny..I don't think the pictures will be in order either)

Papa and 30 Weeks
As many people know, my sweet papa Royce went to be with Jesus last Thursday night. It has been a rough week for my family but we have shared so many memories and stories we have of my papa. I can't help but smile when I think of him not being in pain anymore and the fact that he knows where he is and who he is. He was so special to me and I'll miss him until I see him again. I WM sad he didn't get to meet Porter and love on him like he always loved on me but I know he will get to someday! I'll always be a Papa's girl :)
For obvious reasons, I didn't get to blog last week. This week I am 30 weeks! My 30 week picture is at the bottom this week because I'm blogging from my phone.
Pregnancy Highlights: 30 weeks
Size of baby Avey: Head of Lettuce (18 in., 3.2 lbs.)
Gender: BOY! Porter Lee Avey
Maternity clothes: Yes! My belly has gotten HUGE in the last week or so! Tops are getting shorter so I am wearing tons of maxi dresses...loving them!
Movement: Yes! Loving this...he is so active right now and it's incredible. I just can't believe there is a precious baby in there and he is all ours!
Sleep: Monday night was my first rough night of sleep this entire pregnancy...I have had to get up at least 3 times a night to go to the bathroom. That part doesn't bother me, but some little boy thinks that as soon as I lay back down, it's play time! He starts moving around like crazy! It sometimes takes me up to an hour to get back to sleep...I'm sure he is just preparing me for our long nights ahead :)
Symptoms: some indigestion and a little aching in my lower back and hips
Best moment this week: getting home every night and Nate having dinner ready for me...he is the BEST! I dont brag on him enough but he is too good to me...he will be such a good daddy!
We are down to 9.5 weeks until our little angel makes his grand entrance (or less!) Its starting to get feel more "real" that we are going to be a mommy and daddy in just a few short weeks! We are so in love with this little boy and we haven't even met him yet! I can't imagine loving him more than I already do but I know once we see him, we will love him even more! If you think of us, please keep us in your prayers...we are so ready to meet this little boy! Saturday is our first shower to celebrate Porter and we are excited! It's just a small get-together with some of my high school best friends and church best friends! Best part is, Nate is coming too! We are so excited to see them and so thankful they are having this celebration for us to show their love for Porter! He is going to have some serious lovin's going on at he hospital from all of these girls! After this weekend, we have showers every weekend until May....this boy is going to be so loved and so blessed by so many people!
Have a great weekend! I'll take a bunch of pictures of Porter's first shower too!
