Guess What?!?!

WE ARE PREGNANT!

I am almost 15 weeks and starting to show. We are so excited, especially Hayden. He tells everyone that there is a baby in Mommy's tummy. I had to take fertility drugs again and we thought that it would take a while like it did with Hayden...but I only had to take two doses this time. It caught us by surprise. We had our second ultrasound last Thursday and the baby is looking great. I scanned the pictures for everyone to see. Hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

This was the first time that we have had 3-D pictures done. We couldn't believe the details compared to a regular ultrasound.

South Plains Fair

Ok...I know that it has been a long time since I have blogged but it has been a very busy few months for us. So, two weeks ago we went to the South Plains Fair. Nana and Papa came with us and enjoyed watching Hayden have fun. We ate all the bad stuff that you could possibly think of...corn dogs, fries, fried pies, corn of the cob and turkey legs. I think we took in our calorie intake for the week in one day, but it was fun and worth it. Hayden went on a couple of rides and we saw the animals and went to the petting zoo. He had so much fun we stayed till 3 and on the way home he feel asleep. Blaine and I stayed in the car with him when we got home because we were afraid that he wouldn't go back to sleep if we woke him up. He finally woke up 15 mins. later and said that he wanted to go to his bed. Blaine took him in there and he slept until 6. I guess we wore him out. Enjoy the pictures.

3rd Birthday Party

On Saturday, August 16, 2008 we celebrated Hayden's Birthday with a little party with some family and friends. He also had some kids from daycare show up. Hayden had such a wonderful time. We rented a big bouncer and slide for the kids but I think the adults had more fun then the kids. We want to thank everyone for all the great gifts. Hayden has been enjoying them. I have provided a some pictures from the big day. I was going to put a slide show up but it was giving me some problems. I'm also putting a video of us seeing "Happy Birthday To You." If you listen very close you can hear Hayden singing along.

Nana and Grandma took Hayden to pick-up his Balloons. Here he is stuffed in the backseat with all of his balloons.

Happy 3rd Birthday Hayden!

Our little boy turned 3 years old today. We can't believe it. He's becoming a young man. Momma and Daddy love him so much. We had his birthday party this weekend and he had a blast. Will have photos soon.

4th of July Weekend

We were down in Round Rock for the 4th of July weekend. It's was great being back in central Texas. We came in on Wednesday night and meet Nana, Papa, Grandma, Grandpa C, Uncle JJ and Aunt Candy for dinner at my favorite restaurant in Pflugerville, Springhill Catfish. My Uncle Jim also came to the restaurant to visit and see Hayden. The next day we went and saw Mamma and Pappa, Blaine's grandparents. Hayden and I haven't seen them since January and they were sure missing their grandchild. We loved visiting with them! Then we went to Uncle JJ and Aunt Candy's house to go swimming at their community pool. We had a blast and I got to lay out, which I don't get to enjoy up here in Levelland unless you want to be covered in red dirt because of the wind. On the 4th we went to Round Rock's parade and fireworks and had a big 4th of July dinner. Then Saturday morning Blaine went and got the best donuts in the world, Round Rock Donuts. The two things that I wanted when we came back was Springhill Catfish and Round Rock Donuts. You can't get anything like that up in West Texas. Sunday came around and it was time for us to come home. What a short weekend. Wish we could have stayed longer. We miss our family and seeing them everyday. I put a little slide show together because there was to many great pictures just to post. Enjoy!

CritterFest

This past weekend at the Science Spectrum Museum they hosted CritterFest '08. They had tigers, crocodiles, camels, barn animals, big snakes, monkeys, miniature horses, pony rides, and cow milking demonstrations. Hayden loved feeding the camel and all the barn animals. When we were watching the cow milking demonstration, Hayden thought that the cow was going to the potty. We had to tell him that is was milk coming out of her not pee pee. What he enjoyed the most was Rosaire's Big Cat Encounters. They had five Bengal Tigers including a white tiger. They also had a Crocodile Encounter show that we weren't able to make it to because the show time was to late in the afternoon, we can't miss nap time. Hayden also painted a bug magnet and colored a tiger mask. We had a great time!

Have a Happy 4th of July! We will be in Round Rock visiting with family and friends.
