THREE Generations!

As a last minute surprise, my mom and sister flew down to Florida for a few days. What a treat!!! Ann hadn't even been back in Michigan for 48-hours, and she hopped back on a plane to come spend time with her prego sister. I was SO HAPPY to have them here, and we enjoyed a few great days together. For some crazy reason, we decided to have a yard sale. I was under the false impression that it would be an easy undertaking, but I was WRONG. It took a lot of time, energy, and helping hands. I definitely couldn't have done it without my mom and sister, but it ended up being a success. The best part was that we it forced me to clean through some closets and old boxes, and now we have some extra room for our little squirt.
My helper girls...THANKS mom and Ann. I could NOT have done it without your help. They suffered through the Florida heat because of my crazy whim.
I love it when Ann is back in the United States. She is coming back down at the beginning of August so that she can meet her first niece and help take care of her 9-month pregnant sister.
Auntie Ann had a special effect on our Little Thumper. For some reason, she always moved around when Ann had her hand on my belly. It was neat to share the experience with my dearest sister...especially since I hadn't seen her since December. :) Come back soon, Ann!

Corrie,
I had called your parents and your dad said that you had some surprise visitors! How fun for you!
You look awesome! I'm wondering if your "nesting" is beginning with the whole yard sale idea! :0)

I haven't done my blog in a while. When the hubby is home for the summer I get distracted.
Have a good one!

You look beautiful, Cor! How wonderful that our sis and mom could come share these moments with you! Enjoy these last few weeks...it's amazing how quickly you forget what being pregnant is like (I know it's hard for you to imagine that right now!). :) The finish line is right around the corner! I can't wait for the news!!

You are seriously thee cutest pregnant woman I have ever seen! hehehe! Thought about you today, I have a friend making a road trip down to Florida at the end of July... I told her if you had your baby by then I might want to hitch a ride! hahahaha! I will write it off as a business expense... I can't help it I have clients for photography that live in tropical paradises! :) Love you guys!

Hey Sis! I loved being down there and I can't wait to go back and hang out with my niecie (and you and Phil, but I think she's going to be kinda cool...) I'm glad we took the Yard Sale sign picture with the arrow pointing away from the belly...no babies for sale on Winchester Lane! LOVE you ALL! :)
