Umm, hi! I'm new here. Just to give ya some back ground on me. My name is Rachel and I am getting married this SATURDAY! My fiance' and I found out we were having a baby back in November and, for all you mathematically challenged people out there, I am 5 months pregnant. We found out last Friday we are having a sweet baby girl! Chad of course wanted a boy and was sort of down when he didn't see a "pee-pee", as he called it, on the u/s screen. And I, of course, was ECSTATIC! I have always dreamed of having a baby girl to play with a dress up and tie bows in her hair...all that fun girly stuff :o). Her name is Reagan Makenzie and she is going to be P-R-E-C-I-O-U-S! I am from the South, Alabama to be exact...and YES! I KNOW I WILL BE PREGNANT ALL SUMMER LONG! ..and in Alabama nontheless, OMG! it's going to be A-W-E-F-U-L!....hot+humid=an VERY ill pregnant woman. Needless to say, I will refuse to leave my house! haha unless of course I will be going to the salon for a pedicure or to treat myself to a sno-biz! Bama is known for our BLAZIN' summers... ANYWAY...enough about that. I am ready to quit my job and stay at home and be a housewife and when Reagan gets here I will be a stay at home mommy! :) I'm ready for this day to come! .... I'm not the kind of person to have a "career" in one field and I don't particularly like to work. I like to spend my days with my fiance' lounging around or being outisde on a beautiful day eating icecream or going to the park. We both LOVE the beach and everything about the beach! hmm...I dont really know of anything else to tell you about myself. My poor fiance' woke up early this morning with stomach cramps. I feel so bad for him when he doesnt feel good, b-c I feel helpless for him. I don't ever know what to do or give him. I gave him some pepto bismol this morning and he took some more before he left for work and he said he feels a little bit better. (thank God!) I dont like to be around sick people...they are such downers..haha i'm kidding...but it's true! I am soo stressed about our wedding this weekend. I know everything is pretty much planned and all but it's still hard to just let go and relax! The wedding is outside and I am soo fearful of the rain. We do have a back-up plan..but getting married in the church as a back-up plan is just not my invision of our special day. SO, I am desperatley praying for sunshine! :) I am going to post some pics of some ideas that were in mind while the planning process of wedding went on.....enjoy! :o)
*This was the original idea for my Bridesmaid's hair...but after further review we all have decided that straight hair was best. SO they are going with this instead....

And this is what my hair will look like.....

*This was inspiration for
my bouquet. Nothing but Gerbera Daisies...PINK of course! This picture came from some flower website. Flowers.com maybe? I forget. but beautiful nontheless!

*And this bouquet was the inspiration for Bridesmaids. Pink Ranunculus (sp?) minus the big pink bows...I got the bouquets already made at Michael's they are tied with rafia for a more natural look since the wedding is going to be outdoors...how lucky am I!? .. :o)

Thats all the pictures I have for now... I will post some after the wedding of course!
ok..well I am going to get back to work..Hopefully I will be able to keep up with this thing. Nice to meet you all. I hope I am able to entertain you with my thoughts! God Bless :o)
