34 weeks

Well I am officially eight and a half months pregnant today!! Just 6 short weeks to go!! Here's a new pic of the baby belly!! I Sure love feeling my son just roll around in there it is an amazing thing, God is so awesome!!

TWENTY NINE!! Already??

I just celebrated my 29th birthday this weekend, 29 REALLY?? Where has the time gone? I feel like I am still just a kid maybe 18-19 somewhere in there, then it hits me....no I am a 29 year old wife with soon to be two kiddos! WOW I'm a grown up! LOL To celebrate my birthday this year Jim-Britt asked if I would like to get a hotel room on Friday & just get a little mini vacation for the night just the three of us. We decided to go to the Gaylord Texan it was such a beautiful hotel. We were both just in awe of how huge that place is. After check in we ordered a pizza & they said it would be about an hour so we walked around the gorgeous lobby area. Sadie loved the little town with the train that went around it, they had several train exhibits. They also have a mini river walk that is very pretty, we had a great view from our room of the sports area that had a HUGE screen where they played the games. It was a very relaxing nice way to kick off my birthday weekend. Saturday I spent the day with my mom, Lindsey, her mom Kathy & Margaret dress shopping for Lindsey's big day in December! We had such a good time with the girls & a very yummy lunch that night! It was a great day that ended at Bruce & Margaret's with steak, potatoes & a football game. I love our friends & couldn't ask for better ones! Sunday we just took it easy at home until we went to eat that night for a birthday dinner at Spaghetti Warehouse (Mmmmm) with some family & friends. I appreciate all the calls & messages wishing me a happy birthday & those of you that were there to celebrate thank you! I love my family & friends you guys are awesome!! So one more year in my 20's, I'll enjoy it while it's here time seems to just fly by now days! Here are a few of the pics from the next AM.

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!!!
