RAISING THE LITTLE BARR'S

20 weeks -- Halfway There!

Charlene3 Comments
Well Tropical Storm Debby -- you stink! I've been cooped up inside thanks to you. Luckily, we made it out last night to see a movie in Universal's City Walk, trudging through deep puddles and all. But today, the rain, wind, and non-stop tornado alerts have kept me hanging inside with the pup. I even thought about heading to S. Florida today, but my better judgement kept me off the roads. Being that the state of Florida has been declared a state of emergency at the present time, that was probably a smart decision! Maybe tomorrow?

But on a better note, whoaaaa -- we're halfway there!!! In just under 20 weeks, we will be welcoming our baby girl into the world. And lucky for her, we finally found a house in Warner Robins that we will be moving into in 2 weeks. Whew, that was a tough one! Here she is:

And now for the halfway-there update!
