Great Wolf

We had our final family outing for a night to enjoy the water parks at Great Wolf Lodge. I didn't get too many pictures, but I was able to snap a few. I've also caught some pics of the kids around the house, outside with some neighbors, and celebrating Daddy's birthday!!! It's been miserable hot, and our temp. showed that our back porch was 120 degrees! UGH!

Have a great week! We are enjoying our last week before in-service starts!

Pregnancy

My sweet, sweet husband took some belly pics of me, so I edited them and thought I'd share :)

We may do some family pics tomorrow, taken by Derrick's Aunt, and then I'm doing a little photo shoot with Macey soon.
I'm starting to realize our days alone together are coming to a close. I'm going to get tickets for her and I to go see Nick Jr.'s StoryTime in Grand Prairie. It will be our last weekend together.

Here are pics of the enormous belly! More pics to come!

Relaxing

Not much has been going on besides trying to stay cool, and relaxing! We are heading in to August with many new things to come! There are lots of birthdays this month to celebrate, and we're about to have one last family outing at The Great Wolf Lodge.

School is about to begin, and I will teach for 3 weeks until we welcome our baby boy into the world. I look forward to a new life to share with my husband and his big sister! I love you Tanner.

I will end this post with some of our relaxing moments in July :)

Summer Loves

I have had such a good time being home with my baby this summer. She seems so grown up now, and her little personality is coming out more than ever. The picture above is after church today. I snapped it before we went in to eat at El Chico.

On Saturday, we went and ate at Bass Pro Shop, and to look around at everything. I had shrimp, shrimp, and more shrimp, and once we were done eating, the girls picked out a hat! I picked up the Camo hat for Tanner, but Macey wore it around the entire night. I even caught Daddy D going through the racks! I had to take a picture. He is NO money spender, so this was a rare occurrence. The girls looked too cute in their hats. Macey kneeled down for me take a picture of her by herself. She looks so grown up!

I recently got Tanner some things. I'm trying to tie up loose ends such as diapers, formula, colic drops, thermometer, destitin, etc. I also found the softest leopard blanket at Babies R Us. I thought it would tune down the aqua :) The car blanket is really soft too. It says "boy!"
I found some onesies and a pair of baby legs with an airplane. Macey had a ton of baby legs. They make boy baby legs too! :) I took a picture of his changing table to show his Camo hat hanging on it. Sweet boy! :)

Also, you'll see what I have loved in my spare time while Macey is napping or down for the night. My cell phone, t.v. remote, computer, sweet tea with ice, cream cheese with apricot preserves and ritz, along with my comfy brown recliner. If I didn't gain weight in the beginning, I'm about to gain it now :)

Have a wonderful week! I get to check in on Tanner on Wednesday! I'm so ready to hold this little boy.





After church!






Her big sister shirt to wear to the hospital!


My pregnancy indulgences!

DWA!

Yesterday, we had a "Macey" day and took her to see all kinds of creatures at the Dallas World Aquarium! You'll see in the pictures that she now has a new "cheese" face when I take her pictures. Scrunched up nose and squinty eyes! ha!

We got dressed and went by Chick-fil-a to pick up some lunch, and then headed to Dallas. Once we got there, she stayed in Derrick's arms for most of the time. She was reluctant around the animals at first, but then began warming up. I'm at the point in this pregnancy that I get tired pretty easily, so I can't hold her much, or walk for a long time. It could be the lack of iron as well, but I'm currently on another iron tablet each day.

I ordered an Evenflo car seat off of Walmart.com for $43.00, and because I had it shipped "site to store," we picked it up yesterday afternoon. Once we got it home, Macey took it over and played in it all night! It's a bit "aqua," and I love it, but I'm going to have to add a brown giraffe and really boyish blankets to tone it down :) Sorry Tanner (you'll never know the difference.)


I hope everyone is having a great week. School is a month away!
