Catching Up/New York

 
I feel like I am always playing catch up on here. lol
 
The past few weeks have gone by fast and furious. Football season is always like that. So I decided not to go to the App State vs. Western Carolina game today and use the day to catch up as I have to make a diaper cake and cookies on sticks for my sister's baby shower in Atlanta next weekend and I spent the last weekend with my best friend in New York. Wheew!
 
 
 
This was Jake at the park, we hit up a consignment sale in Granite Falls and then played afterwards a few weeks ago.

 
At the pumpkin patch. I would have added more pictures but I just figured out how to do an iphone photo dump. :)

 
So my trip to New York! I was able to have a fabulous (almost free) trip to New York thanks to my best friend who is working on a contract basis up there. She was so sweet to have us stay in the W in Lower Manhattan. It was a GREAT expereince to just be able to relax, laugh and have fun with someone who "gets me". I needed this.
 
Above this is Mandy and I at teh subway at 3 am. I didn't land until 12 midnight and it took awhile to
get from Lower Manhattan to JFK on the subway.  

 
My first NY Pizza expereince at 4am.

Times Square

 
Cupcakes by Melissa

 
China Town

 
Dinner in Little Italy
 
 
The trip was defiently in my bucket list and due to her paying for the hotel and metro it made it affordable. A trip to remember!
 
In another note just for the record. I went to Wake Forest with my mom this past Wednesday. Great news from the heart doctor that I am for all tense and purposes healed. He wants me to stay on the heart meds because I am still just below normal (EF being 55-65% and I am 50-54%)
But he gave me hope saying there was a very good chance I would have a fine pregnancy if I tried again in the near future. This is great news, just to have the CHOICE. I don't have to go back for a year which is a blessing, if it is still strong then maybe I will entertain the idea. Jake says he wants me to wait until he is at least 5. LOL.
 
Jake is doing great at Pre-K. He LOVES apples, especially golden delicious. He loves Super Heros and legos and cars.
 
We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of my newest nephew Brooks. Christie is  34 weeks pregnant so he should be arriving just after Thanksgiving. Can't wait!
