Oh, Sundays

Oh, Sundays. What can I say. We love Sundays especially when church is at 9 or 11, and before we had a toddler. Right now we have church at 1:00 and it is nearly impossible. I have officially decided that if you have kids who take afternoon naps that church should be optional if it's at 1:00. This Sunday Baylor took a nap after church. He was so exhausted and just crashed on the floor.





This Sunday I also took my 1st and probably last pregnancy picture. I have been avoiding the camera at all costs, but decided I probably should have at least one of the sexy, belly pose pictures. I know I look like I'm due tomorrow, but I still have over 2 months. It is so fun being huge. Woohoo!




Finally, if you want to see a little clip of Baylor dancing with his friend Ethan you can go to the Gardner's to check out their dance-a-thon.

New Picts and Video

Hey friends and family! I finally got a new camera. Here is a recent video and pictures from the spray park and around the house. We are all doing great. Baylor is awesome and just getting ready to be a big brother. He apparently learned this week at nursery how to take things and say, "mine", which is something I'm sure a big brother would do. So, I'm pretty excited to go through that stage with him. There's always something.

What should we name our child?

Well, I have decided to see what ya'll think of Brody and my top 4 name choices. We are having issues committing to a name, and we just kinda wanted to see what people thought. Feel free to vote. It won't hurt my feelings if you don't like any of the names either. In fact, when we told one of Brody's aunts Baylors name she seemed absolutely disgusted, but we still named him Baylor.

San Antonio

It was my oldest sister Shelly's 40th birthday on June 14th, so we decided to surprise her and take her on a trip to San Antonio. My mom, 7 sisters and 3 sister in laws were all there for the party. Here are some pictures of my trip. Thanks for all the fun memories sisters! I love ya'll!



This is Shelly's house. We totally shocked her. She was so excited to see all of us. Most of my family lives in Houston but the rest of us came in as a surprise.




A picture of the river walk. It is beautiful. There's a tons of restaurants and shops plus it is close to the Alamo and other sites.








Some of my sisters trottin' along in front of the Alamo.














This is where you'll find the best mexican food north of the Rio Grande.









Some more of my sisters posing for a quick picture while we were walking.










Aren't we a fun lookin' bunch of gals?












Shelly's birthday party. Happy birthday. We love you!










There are 11 children in my family. The line up is 3 older brothers and 3 older sisters, and then the 5 youngest are all girls in a row. We were always called the 5 little girls. That is why we are holding up 5 fingers. I loved growing up with these sisters.






Here we are taking the trolley from our hotel to go to dinner.








This is obviously Shamu doing some kind of back flip.





We all wore these green t-shirts to Sea World that said, Shelly's my favorite", because Shelly always tried to convince us she was the favorite. For example, instead of signing her name she would just sign from, "the favorite" and we would know it was from her.
