Adventures with Lily ~ Charlotte

Each year, I like to share the posts about my pregnancy memories. :)

It was on this date in 2009 that my mom, big brothers, and I went to an NFL game in Charlotte, NC (about 3 hours from where I live in Raleigh) between the Philadelphia Eagles (my brother Joseph's favorite team) and the Carolina Panthers (my brother Adam's former favorite team). We spent a couple days in the city, staying at a hotel.

I was exactly 14 weeks pregnant at the time. I had told my mom I was pregnant just 5 days before this. I had just moved back to NC the day before this for my pregnancy. In just 6 days, I would have my very first ultrasound. I remember feeling so sick in the hotel room, but not being able to tell my brothers why (I wasn't quite ready to tell everyone about Lily). Adam and Joseph were 25 at the time and I was 20.

This is just one of the many adventures Lily went on during her time on Earth! It makes me smile to see these pictures and to know that little Lily was growing away!

Here are the pages in Lily's scrapbook from the football game.
