8-4-09
I know that I am ONLY 3 wks (did I say 3 weeks?!?) Yes 3 weeks tomorrow! late posting this but 8-4-09 was a day that changed my life forever!
We finally welcomed our little boy Fearing Thomas Mosley into the world on August 4,2009 at 5:12pm. I was 40 weeks (YEP! for those who know me best I was convinced or hopeful that he would arrive sooner!!) But the Lord had a different plan. I was brought in to be induced at 6 am on that Tuesday morning. After nine hours it was decided that Fearing was NOT coming the way we had intended and that I would need a c-section. I was mentally prepared for it because I knew that I would finally get to see our boy in 45 minutes. The end was in-sight!! There are alot more details that I could go into but I thought I would instead just post some pictures!! Hopefully I will have a chance to go into great detail and document at a later time!
The biggest suprise was his size!! My doctor made a guess on Monday that he was probably about 7lbs 6 oz. He really did not think he was any bigger than that. SO you could imagine when Dr. Johnson pulled him out and said that is a big head...we might have an 8 pounder.... then the nurse weighed him on the scale and Dr. Johnson yelled out 8lbs 10 ounces!!! I was in shock and a tad bit out of it and I looked at Beau and said "what did he say?" Beau confirmed yep he said 8lbs 10oz 21 inches long! Needless to say Dr. Johnson was a little off and he said that he was not afraid to admit it when he goofed! We have ALL laughed about this and how well Fearing hid in my belly! Overall it was a really long day but I had a great doctor and fabulous nurse (more on that later!) and really great support from Beau and our family. I will NEVER forget hearing Fearing cry for the first time. I started crying hysterically and I don't think I stopped crying for at least an hour. It was pure bliss. Beau and I are SO blessed and we Thank the Lord everyday for choosing us to be Fearing's parents. OUR CUP RUNNETH OVER!!
This was obviously pretty early on in the day! Beau said he felt like it was Christmas EVE!! So sweet!
Brand New Boy!
My first time to see him! I was in such Awe!
Our First Family picture! That is one loved little boy!!
Mommy's first time to hold sweet Fearing!
One proud daddy!!
Our Family!

Today I want to wish the best friend a girl could have a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! My dear friend Tiffany has been there for me through thick and thin. She has always been someone who I can count on to pull me through ANY situation. She knows the good, the bad and the ugly and loves me despite of it. Through the past 11 years we have grown closer and it is more and more evident that she truly one of my soul mates. I feel SO blessed to have her and I thank the Lord for our friendship. I love you Tiff!

I know it has been an eternity since my last post, but we have been swamped lately. I won't bore you with the details because that would be lengthy... I will say that I have one growing boy in my belly. At my 32 wk appt. we had the 4-d ultrasound. Fearing wasn't too excited about that. So he had his arm accross his sweet face the entire time. We did see parts of his face just never the whole thing at once. And he weighed in at 4 lbs 14 oz. The Dr. said he would gain between 1/2 lb to 1 pound per week from then on out. You do the math. I am going back to the Dr. on Wednesday where we will try the ultrasound out again. Hopefully he will humor us. But if not it is looking as if we won't be waiting as long as we had expected for his arrival. In the meantime, I have been doing a little shopping. I found the cutest booties EVER for my precious boy! I can't find them on the web- but I did find another pair I thought I would tease you with.
When Beau and I first started dating he talked about his Nanny and her family all of the time. I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting Nanny, but unfortunately she passed away after we had been dating about 3 months. There were so many family members from Nags Head, NC that came into town for her funeral... The Fearings. They were the sweetest people and you could tell they were so special to Beau and the rest of the Eady family. So I loved (and still love) hearing stories about Nags Head and the "Cottage" (which belonged to Nanny & her siblings). One of the stories Beau always told was about being kin to "Black Beard" the famous pirate. (Turns out this wasn't exactly true...although I know B and I know he will butter Fearing up really well with this story!) SO needless to say, when we decided to have a baby and more than that when we found out it was a boy...we knew his name would be Fearing and we knew that he had to have "pirate stuff"! Unfortunately, I was not cleared by the Dr. last week to go on our vacation/family reunion this week. So Beau is in Nags Head for the "Fearing Family Reunion" I wish SO bad I was there but there will be a trip with our Fearing in tow come this fall. And don't think he won't be wearing these precious little booties on the voyage!
I can't wait for Beau to get home to show him!! I really can't wait to see Fearing in these booties with the day gown his Nanny (my mom) is making him with the "Ahoy Matey" pirate teddy bear smocked on it!!!

Favorites....
With the summer months finally in front of us, I have found there are several things that I can't live without!! One being a given... WATER! I have never been so thirsty and water is the ONLY thing that quenches it!! Other than that... I have several items that I would consider to be a 'staple' in my daily routine- and a few that are tucked in my bag for the weekends out on the boat.
I have found over the years that I try to block most sun from my face- this comes from a very bad personal experience that unfortunately my bestie Tiff witnessed first hand and can vouch...was a BAD thing!! I burned my face very bad when I was a freshman in college. SO bad that when it peeled I had scars that I thought would never go away!! Since then I do not step into the sun with out this product covering my face!!
I mean it is the good stuff. We like to keep it in the cooler and it goes on like a fluffy cream! I have also become best friends with a hat- I don't discriminate...any hat will do just fine as long as it is blocking the rays from my face! ** This is the only thing I have ever used that does not burn your eyes when you get in the water and it runs...It is A-Mazing!
I have also really come to love this for my lips.
I actually use it on a daily basis... It has a yummy creamsicle type taste to it. It doesn't give that sunscreen chapstick taste either ( you know what I mean!)
And since I am on the "Ocean Potion" I thought I would share one of my all time favorite summer staples:
And I recently picked this up to wear daily and so far..so good. I really like the feel. Not greasy like some can be- it is very light and it smells good too!
AND I have had several people ask what I am lathering my buddha belly in daily to help prevent those pesky little strech marks...
This is it, Bath & Body works- spa works- "Lay it on Thick" it is a creamy moisturizing lotion that is extra thick for ultra dry or ultra stretching skin!! I LOVE IT!! Not to mention that it smells like Coconuts.... OMG take me to the beach daily!!

While I am quite behind on my blogging these days... I wanted to say that it is hard for me to believe that a year has passed since I married my best friend. I would post pictures from our special day but I have none on my computer at work. So I thought I would share another one of my favorite pictures of us from 2 summers ago... Six years have passed since I met and fell in love with this man. I can't imagine my life without him. This morning I have been looking through pictures from our wedding day and it was everything I could have imagined, but more than that our first year of marriage has been more than I could have EVER dreamed it would be. I am so blessed. And now, we are so thrilled and excited that in about 2 months we will be meeting our little boy!! God is good! And my cup runneth over...

This precious little cottage has been making my head spin lately... Actually since beach trip weekend! We had a wonderful time on our getaway. I took very few pictures, I had planned to upload those...but seems that my camera is going abroad for a week. To Spain. My younger brother and sister are leaving Sunday for a trip to Spain with Auburn University College of Agriculture. NICE. So they are borrowing my camera for the trip. Sorry you will have to wait for the boring pics from the beach. Other than that not too much is going on here. Except Fearing and my belly are getting quite big. I have a few pics of that too...but they are on the camera as well.
Back to the house. It is on the market. For 6 wks now. We have been 'negotiating' with the same couple since April 27th now. And it.is.making.me. (7 months pregnant) CRAZY. Oh well. Hopefully it will be behind us soon. I will keep you posted.
