It was a fantastic weekend at the Peppers' home. We started off with an opportunity to watch our two nephews, Jackson and Pierson, and niece Julia Hope for a few hours on Saturday. Suffering from a little bout of the allergies, I opted to take the opportunity to get some cleaning done around the house and keep the boys occupied. Julie got to spend the afternoon with the cutest little girl in her arms. I love this picture of Julie holding this little angel! I can look into my wife's eyes and know that she is going to be such a great mother. I can't wait to see her hold our very own child in her arms as he drifts off to dreamland. And there is nothing sweeter than the smell of a baby. 
Saturday night was the annual Service League of Cherokee County Ball. These women do such great work in the community and I am so honored to be married to one of these great women. Julie and I enjoyed the opportunity to dress up for the event, although Julie did panic a little about how to look dressy and pregnant simultaneously. She wore a beautiful black pant suit and was stunning. I easily had the best eye candy on my arm!
Finally, we finished off the weekend by taking Jackson and Pierson to Dixie Speedway, one of my favorite places, to see the Monster Truck and Motorcross show. I was so excited that Turner got to go to his first Dixie event and kept thinking about how much fun it will be to bring him back after he's born. Julie has been watching her sugar closely. We have both been enjoying a diet of 30 carbs at breakfast, 60 at lunch and 60 at dinner with 2-3 30-carb snacks per day. It's amazing how you cherish your food when you count each carb! She has been checking her blood sugar 2 hours after each meal. So far, so good.
We're 9 weeks away and I am so psyched about this baby joining our lives!
