Road Trip!

Since David was out of town this weekend on a snowboard trip, Hendrix and I took the opportunity to visit our friend's The Cope's in Shreveport. My sweet boy surprised me and did excellent on the 3.5 hour ride there.



Hendrix and Taylor have been friends for quite awhile now, and even though they hadn't seen eachother in months, they got right back into the swing of things like no time had passed at all.


Getting ready for bed was a big hit, who knew baths and teeth brushing was so much fun!





Saturday we all went to the Boardwalk and had a blast.

Riding on the "choo choo trolley"


What a great Daddy!


H's first carousel ride.



After the boardwalk it was naptime and boy did those two kids nap- 3 HOURS!!!!

Sunday morning Hendrix woke up before 7am and the first words out of his mouth were "Taylor, play!" We spendt the morning playing and enjoying a wonderful homemade breakfast, then we hit the road!


Thanks again to Katie, JT, and Taylor for a WONDERFUL weekend!!

It's Been 5 Months

...since I last blogged. Wow, how terrible is that? Thanksgiving and Christmas were spent hanging out with all the local family and some that dropped in from Kentucky. My birthday and David's birthday were great- nothing too out of the ordinary.

Hendrix had his SECOND birthday last month, and I still can't believe I have a 2 year old. This boy is so flippin smart. Just the other day I caught him counting to himself..up to 7! He's the apple of his daddy's eye, especially when he does things like pull his balance bike up onto the door/ramp of our shed and ask his Daddy to set his bike up so he can "fast, fast." David was grinning from ear to ear. I on the other hand was trying to figure out how much more insurance we will need if my kid is coming up with this kind of stuff and he's only 2!

This 2nd pregnancy is going great in terms of mommy/baby health. My body, however, is not treating me as well as it did with Hendrix. I guess it's the old lady in me but my hips and sciatic nerve are definitely giving me a run for my money. Well , that and the scale. Really hoping not to go over what I gained with Hendrix, but in all honesty I'll just nurse off the weight like I did the first time around. I'm dying to decorate the nursery, buy cute clothes, etc, but in case you haven't heard, David wants to keep this baby a surprise, so we won't find out if it's a boy or a girl until Birth Day. *yay* <--- dripping with sarcasm. The things we do for love!
