::Taylors Closet::

This past Saturday night we attended the Taylors Closet Fashion Show Benefit and Gala. What an amazing night! The entire gala was done with excellence and we already can't wait until next years show! It was held at a hanger at the Ft. Lauderdale Executive Airport, such a cool setting!

I also managed to sneak in a 29 week picture! :) Enjoy!


29 weeks!

My latest concoction...


I love the beach (I love to be tan more then anything...) But lately my tan has been restricted to just the 'front' of me! If Im at the beach with Teddy (being 7 months along now, those days are few and far between) I will just dig a small hole in the sand and lay on my stomach that way, not incredibly comfortable, but it works! However, this past weekend I created this...my "pregnant ladies beach chair". I took a cheap, $15 dollar old-school plastic beach chair from CVS and cut a nice big square out of the center of it and wha-la, the pregnant ladies beach chair! I know what youre thinking...genius! Yes, thank you! And its super comfortable not to mention!

I wish....

I wish I was a little better about posting things when they actually happened, instead of waiting for 3 or 4 exciting things to build up then overwhelming you with one long post, but here we go!

A few weeks ago we celebrated our neighbors 6th Birthday! We love their family and she is a total ham! She had a mani/pedi party. The 'big girls' (6th graders) from her school came over and gave all of her girlfriends manicures and pedicures, it was too cute! Then they all changed into their 'fancy dresses' and had a 3 course dinner! Everyone had steak, Carmella's choice! Good thing the UM game was on in the living room....it was a little much for Teddy. Later that week we went to Buca di Beppo for her actual Birthday dinner with her family.
Here she is opening her present from us:

Just this past weekend we celebrated the wedding of Julie and John Adams! Our great friends Jeremy and Julie Cox came in town to marry them and of course, hang out with us! I love the way weddings bring people together...


Julie, John, Jeremy and Julie

Julie is also expecting! It was so much fun to get to 'compare notes' since we're so close together. Their little girl Lola Kay is due January 10th and we are due January 3rd! She is exactly one week behind me! We did lots of maternity clothes shopping and lots of eatting! :)

Julie at 26 weeks
Teresa at 27 weeks
(yes, shes actually pregnant, I know it doesnt even look like it!)


Meanwhile, Teddy has been keeping busy making us millions as a pro-beach volleyball model. Okay, Im kidding about the millions...., but below are some amazing pictures that a sports photographer took of him last week.




Finally, we are making progress on the nursery! The sad news is we had to find a new home for our dog this weekend (we are definitely going through withdraws) but he is with a great family and has a new friend to play with all the time! Ive been painting some furniture and getting ready to put the final touches on the room. I will be sure to post pictures of it when its finished!
Have a great week!
