Hurricane Isaac

Well, the storm came and passed very slowly all last week. On Tuesday, August 28, Charles and I headed over to the Zachary Youth Park to pick up some sandbags just in case. They said we were going to get tons of rain and we wanted to prepare! We had 3 ice chests in the house waiting to store our cold items from the refrigerator when the power went out. The storm moved so slowly that we only got wind and showers on Tuesday. The rain came Wednesday and also brought lots more wind. Thankfully, our house braved it through the storm and we didn't have any damage. We are so blessed. It had been s long time since I had been through a hurricane, and it was a little scary! Especially being 9 months pregnant! The rain has come pretty much every day, on and off, since the storm. Our yard is soaked and Bourbon doesn't understand why we can't play ball. Hopefully soon the sun will stay out long enough to dry up all the water! Here are a few photos of the calm before the storm and the rainy mess that followed!

So close!

So.... Landri's due date is less than 10 days away! It's very exciting and very scary all at once! I'm ready for her to be here so I can get to know her and learn how to be a great mom. Here's a pic of me at 38 weeks and 1 day....
