The countdown continues...

It amazes me that there are only 7 more weeks (well in 2 more days) until our baby boy is due to be here. I can't wait to meet him & see if he looks just like his big sister and am excited to see what kind of personality he will have. I love being a mom so much and am so lucky to have been blessed with these two wonderful babies. It's a little overwhelming sometimes to think about having two kids under the age of two but then I know God is in control and thought we can handle it and then I'm fine. So we wait, as D-day is quickly approaching I can't help but enjoy these last few weeks with Sadie as an only child & prepare for all the great times that we will have as a new family of FOUR!! WHOA!! So far all is well with the pregnancy & we are right on track which is great, have I mentioned I LOVE BEING PREGNANT!!! It is the most amazing thing (other than meeting & loving your baby when they get here) and I can't believe it is almost over (tear) :-)

Granbury Lake

My friend Tiffany & I took our kids to the awesome lake I was taking about a few post ago (with no pics of it) Granbury Lake on Saturday. We all had such a good time playing in the water & getting some sun. We packed lunchs & drinks & prepared for a fun few hours just hanging out. Her boys loved Sadie & the feeling was mutual. They entertained her the whole trip there & back, and were such great helpers with keeping up with her at the lake. We were kind of bummed the little water area that has fountains for kids to play in wasn't working but we still had a fantastic day! Here are a couple pics Tiff got with her phone of us & our kiddos:

Hurricane Harbor 09'

Grandma, Uncle Bubba, Morgen, Sadie & I all went on a trip (the 1st for Morgen & Sadie) to Hurricane Harbor. We all had such a good time!!! With me being in the 3rd trimester of my pregnancy I couldn't ride anything anyway so what better time to take Sadie & let her play in the kiddie pool & float around the lazy river. We ended up spending ALL day there!

Sadie's favorite past time...

Here is a picture I took of Sadie one night when she was watching her videos. I love that she does this, I used to do the exact same thing as a baby so I could not resist snapping this pose of my girl!

Dinosaur World 2009

This year we will be celebrating our 5 year anniversary on August 28th. Since we have become parents the thought of leaving Sadie while we go somewhere is just isn't what we want to do. So this year & last year we do a family activity for our anniversary: last year was a low key tri'p to Lake Whitney (thanks Dad & Liz for letting us stay at the house) whith her when she was just 4 months old. This year I had to plan my vacation time a week before our anniversary so we decided to go to Glen Rose & visit Dinosaur World with Sadie & then go to lake Granbury to this little well kept secret beach that was just gorgeous!! We just got pics at the Dino World so I will share those. Sadie had such a good time walking the path with Mommy & Daddy....(mommy mostly took pics of her & Daddy). She kept saying "More, more" every time we would pass some dino's it was too cute!! She also loved playing in the water at the little kid water park they had at the beach. When I would try & take a break she would walk over to me & push my legs in the direction of the water, she wasn't quite brave enought to do it alone just yet, which is fine with me!! I love her "needing" me to help her & be with her still, I know one day that will be gone far to fast! Well here are the pics of the day we had! Happy Anniversary Babe, what a wonderful 5 (married) years it's been! You are a wonderful husband & a fantaastic Daddy!! What a blessing you are to us we love you!!!

Sadie old & new pics

Here are a few pictures of Sadie from about January to now (15 mo) that I thought I would post. As Colts arrival get's closer I realize my "baby" is turning into a big girl so fast!! She is such a blessing and sometimes I can't believe God would trust me with such a precious angel. I wonder can I be the best Mom I can be to do justice to this little girl. We are so thankful He decided we were the ones she needed, I never knew but all of my life I've needed her. She makes us who we are now & we strive to be better & better because of her. Hope you enjoys the pictures as much as I do!
