24 week update

Well, we have passed the 24 week mark and had a check-up with the doctor earlier last week. We continue to get great reports on Lauren and Chandler. The doctor is very happy with her progress and said she is right on track with everything they look for. He told her to keep doing what she's doing and that's always good to hear. We go back again in early January, where Lauren will have a glucose test performed to check for the possibility of gestational diabetes. We pray for continued good reports and that baby Chandler will be perfectly healthy. 


Over the past few weeks, not a lot has been going on, but yesterday started a busy couple of weeks for us.  Lauren flew out yesterday on a last-minute work trip to Los Angeles for the week. She returns early Friday morning, then we jump in the car and head to Atlanta for the weekend. From there, we head to MS for a week and then I will leave on Christmas Day heading over to Abu Dhabi for the third consecutive year. After dropping me off at the airport in Jackson, Lauren will pick up Claire & Jeremy and drive up to Memphis Christmas afternoon to visit family and spend the night there. Finally, Lauren and Glenna, who has so graciously offered to ride back with Lauren on the long drive to Miami, will depart Memphis on Sunday and take their time making it back down here. So, the next few weeks are going to be pretty busy with a lot of traveling, but we are definitely looking forward to seeing all of our family and friends in each location. 


We've also been updating our registry's at Target and Buy Buy Baby the past few weeks. Who knew there were so many options when looking at car seats and strollers. WOW! Thanks to all of Lauren's friends and family who offered advice and feedback on what they have done. We finally made a decision after going back to Buy Buy Baby this past weekend and getting a good demonstration of several models from one of the store associates, which was a big help in making a decision. 


Here are a few pictures of Lauren's 24 week belly. We hope to see as many of you as we can on our travels the next few weeks. If we don't get to see you, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
