Finishing the nursery
We are finally wrapping up the baby's room. Adam worked so hard on the nursery by putting up crown molding and these cute decals.
They were such a pain, but he did a great job!

The dreaded trip to the dentist
Yes, I'm ashamed to admit that Holton will soon be 4 and we've yet to take him to the dentist. I know, I know....it's really bad of us. But Holton hates brushing his teeth. He acts like it's pure torture when we try to do this. So I couldn't imagine him making it through the dentist with their big, scary tools!
But we finally bit the bullet and Adam took Holton to his first dentist appointment today. (You know I couldn't take him - he's much tougher for his daddy).
I was so scared to get the update from Adam. But, guess who did fantastic? Apparently Holton was just awesome in there and Adam raved about the dentist.
Check out our brave little guy.
The best part of all is that Holton didn't have any cavities and he's very proud of his "sparkly" teeth!
P.S. - anyone in our neck of the woods need a good pediatric dentist, just holler. Adam was extremely impressed!

What a new pair of shoes can do!
Holton is like any other soon to be 4 year old boy. He loves Batman, Superman, Spider Man. While shopping last week I saw these Batman rain boots.
Well, lets just say they were a huge hit! Nice outfit, huh?
Holton loves to put the boots on and "do tricks". Here is video proof. By the way, he asked that I tape him performing. Ha!

Baby Baby's name
The day that we found out we were having another boy, I immediately knew we had to incorporate a certain name into the baby baby mix.
On March 13th, we unfortunately and very unexpectedly lost Adam's uncle. His name was Kirk and he was a truly fantastic man! He was the type of person that you want your son to grow up to be. Kirk was an amazing father, husband, brother and Uncle.
Adam just adored Kirk. They were very close and it was heartbreaking to lose him. So, we knew right off the bat that Kirk would absolutely be involved when naming baby baby.
I think this has a very nice ring to it, don't you?
I'm so honored that my baby boy will be named after such a wonderful man. He has big shoes to fill!

Another Baby Shower!
Last weekend my sweet friends threw a baby shower for me at home. I'm just kicking myself that I didn't get any pictures of the hostesses.
My wonderful hostesses were: Holly and Julie (who I've known since our sorority days back in 95'...you know they have good stories to tell), Dee (who I've known since the 6th grade!) and my wonderful sis-in-law, Amanda.
This is the only type of picture I have of the hostesses. There is Amanda, the back of Holly's head, and Julie holding her sweet Halstyn. Dee was probably behind the scenes cutting up food.
And speaking of food, check out the adorable cake! It matched the invitation perfectly.
Since there is no drinking for me, I was extremely excited about the cake!
Amanda with baby Sutton. She was so good during the shower.
Our neighbor, Susan, with her baby girl Alyssa.
Holly's mom, Bernice, and her Aunt, Mary Frances. Bernice is holding Holly's little girl Jayda. Holton is in hog heaven with all the girls in his life!
And here is Holton with his little girlfriend, Hallie. They are trying to help me open my presents!
How great is this shirt for Holton?
We're finally in the current century! We received a great video monitor for Baby Baby.
Papa and Nana got us these cute personalized burp cloths. I love them!
We received so many wonderful gifts for Baby Baby and we are so grateful. It's hard to believe we'll be a family of 4 in less than a month! Now, if only someone could give us some type of magic sleep dust for the baby, we'd be set!

Work Baby Shower
This week two of my sweet friends from work hosted a fantastic baby shower for me. Here they are - Jessica, swollen me & Teresa!
Teresa set up several games including guess the number of diapers. Well, there were 924 and I got to take them all home. Heck ya, saving money!
Jill was the guest bartender. She made a lovely champagne, vodka, lemonade drink. I could only have the smallest sip.
Jessica made this adorable diaper cake. When I brought it home, Holton wanted to immediately take it apart and steal the stickers on there.
Oh ya, we played that "how big is her belly" game. Always flattering.
How cute is this personalized step stool? Love it!
Teresa's mom made Baby Baby this beautiful quilt!
Group shot of the girls!
We all had a great time and I was so appreciative of everyone coming out on a school night.

Another weekend, another party!
In Texas when the temperatures are 100+, it's very hard to have an outdoor party without a pool involved. So, we have these lovely indoor bounce house places.
On Saturday Holton was invted to his little class mate's birthday party. He was so excited to see all of his friends from school and he wasn't shy a bit!
His friends, Tony & Alexa
A group shot of Holton and his friends from school
Here is Holton saying "cheese" for anyone that wanted to take his picture.
I had to take a picture to prove he ate a whole piece of pizza! (That's a rare thing. He definitely doesn't have my appetite).
