Just a little update...

Wow....it's been well over a month since I've blogged...way too long!! It seems like for the past month I've just been running around in circles trying to get things ready, the house organized/cleaned, etc. before we have a new baby in the bunch. But, looking around, it doesn't seem like I've gotten ANYTHING done!

We had a good Thanksgiving. We spent time with my parents and Michael's parents and enjoyed some GREAT food!!

Sully started going to Pre-K on Tuesdays and Thursdays in November. He LOVES it! It's been good for both of us to get used to him not being with me all the time. I'm hoping that it will make his transition to Kindergarten a little easier on both of us, too!! Everett is my little shadow on days that Sully is at school....he definitely misses having his playmate around.

We got some family pictures done in November that I tried to include with this post, but the internet won't let me right now....so next time!!

A BIG Sigh....of RELIEF!!

Well, we had our Breast Cancer 3-Day Golf Tournament last weekend, and we made enough money from it to send everyone on our team on the Breast Cancer 3-Day walk (once the sponsorship check gets here!). What a relief...and I am so glad it's over with...the tournament was A LOT more work than I had bargained for....but, in the end, all the hard work paid off. So, now that I'm not busy with the planning, organizing, recruiting, re-recruiting, etc., etc., etc. for the tournament, maybe I can find some more time to blog more frequently than once a month!!

Before I know it, Lelan Elaine will be making her grand appearance, and I'll be super busy again! Sully is so excited about having a little sister....he keeps finding rattles, etc. from when Everett was a baby....he brings them to me and tells me to save them so Lelan can play with them. Plus, I've had fun buying some baby girl stuff....I think she's going to be just a little spoilt....and I think her daddy is going to be worse than me!!!

Some More Pictures

In the picture of Sully at sunset, those are bats flying above his head!

It's been a while!

Wow...it's been quite a while since I've blogged! I read everyone else's blogs quite frequently but don't seem to find the time to update my own. I am now 23 weeks pregnant and feeling good. I'm feeling her move around, so that's always reassuring. I have been so much more emotional with this pregnancy....you can ask my husband or my sister...they can definitely verify that! For example, a few weeks ago, Michael and I were watching "Forest Gump." At the end, where he is at Jenny's grave talking to her, I was absolutely bawling....anyone who knows me knows how completely out of character this is for me. I might shed a few tears at an emtional movie, but I definitely don't BAWL! It's been crazy....I wasn't like this with either of my pregnancies with the boys!

In the past few weeks, we've gone to a Rangers baseball game, played in the Frio River, and been to Sea World...fun times!!

The Rangers game was the first professional sporting event I've been to, and it was a lot of fun. I will admit, I am not much of a baseball fan...I am much more into football and basketball. But, this game was a lot of fun, and I look forward to going to some more!!

I've also been very busy with all of the fundraisers we've been doing to raise money for the 3-Day Breast Cancer walk we're doing in November...it's been A LOT of work but will definitely be worth it all!!

It's a.....

GIRL!!! I had a sonogram today that showed a healthy baby girl! We are very excited and, most of all, thankful that she is healthy!!

Sully was disappointed at first because he wanted another brother. However, after reminding him that his cousins (Tracer, Trevor, & Trenton) had a little sister, and that she was pretty cool, he decided it would be okay if he had a sister, too!! Kids are so funny!!!

Happy 4th Birthday, Sully!!!

Sully turns 4 today....wahoo!! I can't believe he's already that old...unbelievable!!! I honestly can't imagine our lives without him....he has been such a joy, and I am so glad I have been fortunate enough to get to be at home with him each day and watch him explore the world around him and become the little person that he is today. He has been such a great son and is a wonderful big brother to Everett.

We had his birthday party on Saturday....we did a "Dinosaur Dig" birthday party. It was lots of fun! I've posted some pictures from his party.
