TGIF

I'm so glad it's Friday, aren't you????

My parents have been at camp in Siloam this week. Children's only camp. 1200 3rd - 6th graders. 95 degree weather. Sounds fun, huh? I went to visit them last night. This was after church outside when it was still 90 degrees - we all look hot. (Don't you think I look like my dad?)(My hair is actually the same color as his (white) and if I didn't color it - we would REALLY look alike) ha!
They have a great church service for the kids. They have games (here is my dad helping with one of the games), music, skits, and a sermon. I think my dad said as of Wednesday - they had already had over 100 kids saved.
Look what I'm wearing again today!!! Can't say enough about how much I love these maternity jeans!!!! I just ordered a pair of Sevens that I"m excited about. Those two pairs should carry me through the next 6 months and beyond! (I'm ready to get bigger because today if you saw me from the side - I don't think I look pregnant - I just look like I've had one too many tacos). ha!

Just a little follow up sad news. The girl I asked you to pray for earlier this week who went into labor at 22 weeks lost her baby on Wednesday. They need your prayers more than ever now. I can't imagine who sad they must be.

Happy Weekend!

You look so good in jeans.

The Golf Widow said...

That's just heartbreaking. My prayers go out the their family.

You look just like your Dad!Your parents are so cute and brave for enduring the heat and 100's of preteens.Bless their hearts!

You look great! I remember during my first pregnancy it took forever before I "looked" pregnant.Many Feb's ago,during the last few week of my pregnancy we had a warm spell, so I went on the hunt for anything cool. When I asked the sales lady what she suggested, she said they had some really cute stuff in the Spring/summer line and I should just wait. Hello, I was due in March. I left feeling very "un prego". 5 weeks later(one day before DD) I had a 8lbs3oz baby girl. I showed her. :)

I will definitely be praying for that family. I just hate that so very much for them.

And I can definitely see the resemblance between you and your daddy! Your parents are adorable. No wonder they had such a beautiful daughter who is looking SO CUTE in those stylin jeans. You are one hot mama, my friend!

Megan L Hutchings said...

So sad! I will be praying for the family!!!

You look PRECIOUS in your jeans! They are so comfortable it is unreal. I am so glad you are enjoying this b/c it is so SPECIAL!

P.S. When the galz and I went shopping on Wednesday we often found ourselves saying, "Oh, that looks like Kelly!"

What a great picture of you and your Mom and Dad! Whew--I loved camp as a kid, but it seems like hot weather only makes me grouchy now that I'm older--ha! I don't know how much fun I'd have sleeping in one of those cabins now!

You look so cute in your JEANS--a totally different clothing look for you, but cute as always!!!

I'm so sad for the family that lost their baby. I'll be praying for them. That just breaks my heart.

Alyce said...

The jeans look great! You'll want to wear them even after the baby is born!
I am very sorry for your friend. Fortunately she has a strong, supportive friend in you.
Where exactly is Siloam? I tried to search it..how far is it from Eatonton? We went through Eatonton on Tuesday (stopped for peaches)..on our way to I20. Wondered if we went through it.

Kristin said...

I love the jeans! You look just adorable :)

Your parents are so cute!

Preppy Mama said...

You look amazing and those do not look like maternity jeans!! I would totally wear those now!

Ashley said...

I will certainly pray for the family who lost their baby. I can't even imagine the emotions. So sad.

And you look adorable in those jeans! Very cute!

You look so adorable in your jeans!! You definitely have a "glow" about you. I'm so sad for that family. I can't imagine there is any greater pain. I really enjoy reading your blog!

Don't you just love getting that little belly and all those cute clothes? Call me crazy, but I loved every minute of both of my pregnancies. :)

Betsy said...

I am so sorry to hear about your friend's baby!! That is so sad. I will be praying for them!!

You do look alot like your dad, but when I saw your grandmother's picture, that's who I thought you REALLY looked like!

You're a cutie in those jeans! :)

Hi, I love your blog...too cute. I can totally relate to your story of infertility and after 5 years of trying and numerous miscarriages my husband and I have our very own Hudson. (We were choosing between Hudson or Hadley if it was a girl) We too had taken "time out" to reflect on our lives when God blessed us with our wonderful little man. Best of luck with your pregnancy!

Brittany said...

Long time lurker... Number 1: Yes, TGIF - this week has been entirely too long it seems.

B: the jeans are too cute - I am not even pregnant and want some...

And 3: I'm heartbroken for your friend - will definitely be keeping them our thoughts and prayers.

Have a great weekend!

Jenny said...

I will be praying for that precious family. I pray for peace and that they would feel God's presence in a very real way!

You look too cute in your jeans. I love them!!!!

Lisa said...

Hi Kelly, I just recently started reading your blog. I was so saddened to read that Justin and Alyson lost their baby. I've been praying for them all week. I'm praying for you too. By the way, you'll be filling out those jeans soon enough!

Alyce said...

Kelly, I am so laughing at myself!
For some reason I thought you were in GA!! And when I took the map out..there was a Siloam..so it just made sense..Oh well.. ha..I'm a dork!

April S. said...

Not only do you look precious in your jeans, your hair is SO CUTE!!! I love it shorter. I have 2 pair of the Seven materity jeans and I LOVE them and live in them right now! You can't go wrong, I promise. I rarely comment on your blog but read it every week. I am 2 weeks ahead of you in my pregnancy, so it's nice to compare notes.

I will be praying for your friend. I can not imagine what they are going through.

I have been praying all day for the Steiners (spelling?) they are such a precious couple. I know that something good will come out of this situation. They have posted the most beautiful picture of Jesus holding a baby on their blog. It comforted me knowing that Baby Jonathan will never have to suffer, that he is safe in the arms of the Lord.
That is so wild, I always thought you look like your mother, but you look a lot like your dad! Great picture.
Love those maternity jeans, how cute. So happy for you and your husband. Praying for you daily!

Love ya lots,
Kara-Prov. 3:5-6

Leigh Ann said...

Love the picture of you with the parentals! VERY cute! I admire them SO much. Kids and heat are a tiring combination. :)

Ok, you are officially THE cutest preggie ever! You look great in jeans!

Jacquie said...

Girl, you are working those Citizen jeans! I cracked up at your "one too many tacos" comment - at least everyone KNOWS you have a reason to have a belly... it's not so easy when your child is 21!

(I'll let Renee know to check her email. She was wondering if you got her email/comment - whichever.)

Stephanie said...

You look so cute in those maternity jeans Kelly!! Love your hair too...it looks great on you. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

I will pray for that sweet family, thank you for sharing with us.

laura said...

We went to our pre-teen camp a few weeks ago...I love that your parents go! What a blessing for the children.

Erin said...

Those jeans look super cute on you...I bet your baby likes them too!

Heather said...

Oh my goodness, you look so cute & hip in your new Citizen jeans. I definitely think you should jeans should become a part of your post prego wardrobe!!
