He loves his bathtub

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile,

but sometimes a smile can be the source of your joy.

My Little Lamb

You may have been wondering where I've been, well I've been taking take of this little lamb.

John Landry

37 weeks!

I've finally made it to 37 weeks ~full term! So EXCITED and thankful. I thought you would enjoy these before and after pictures in the same outfit.

Landry's 1st Cowboys Game

Last Sunday we went to the Cowboys game. Our friends have a suite on the field with a private bathroom. It was perfect for the pregnant mama. We had SO much fun! I think this was Chris's FAVORITE part, meeting the cheerleaders!! haha
15 days or less until our lil' cowboy is here!!

35 Weeks and Bed Rest

Flowers for your Friday

Yesterday I had my check-up and my doctor wants me to be on modified bed rest meaning NO more working. I wasn't working everyday but I was still subbing occasionally. I'm not suppose to do anything that would raise my blood pressure! So today I will be watching Project Runaway from last night and maybe a movie or 2 :) I'm telling myself to enjoy this time because I won't have days like this time once our lil' pumpkin comes.
I'm going back to the doctor on Monday for an ultrasound so we can get an approximate weight.
So my weekend will be filled with relaxing, and more relaxing! At least I have date night to look forward to. We are going to my favorite sushi restaurant tonight RA with good friends!!

Happy Weekend!

Will you be my Godmother?

Dear Aunt Hannah,

Will you please be my Godmother? Will you hold me at my baptism and promise to pray for me every day?

Love, Landry

Let the Countdown Begin...

We only have 1 more month until we get to bring our baby boy home in this precious blue gown.

Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him. Psalm 127:3

The Perfect Dress

My sister is getting married June 11, 2011 and I'm the maid of honor. She has been looking at bridesmaid dresses and wanted to get something that was NOT your typical "bridesmaid" dress. (You know the kind, the one you will NEVER wear again). I know my bridesmaid dresses for my wedding were VERY "bridesmaidie" but at least I didn't try to tell my friends they could wear them again :)





I hope this is the dress she picks. I think it is perfect and its from my FAVORITE store Anthropologie.

Lil' Pumpkin

(This precious baby will have to do until ours arrives)

I've never been so happy for a new month to begin! Fall is my favorite season and I can't wait for everything that it brings, cooler weather, Ohio State and Dallas Cowboys football, Pumpkin Spice Lattes, my birthday (which is my favorite holiday) and this year our lil' pumpkin.

Our lil' pumpkin is going to arrive on October 13th. My doctor will induce me this day, if Landry doesn't come sooner on his own. Which means he'll be here in 6 weeks or less!!

Happy September Y'all!!!

"Bubble" Chandelier (My favorite touch)

Well....my trip to Ohio is almost over. Tomorrow I'll be back in Dallas. I'm excited to get home, see my husband and unpack all of Landry's goodies but not so excited to return to the sweltering heat. I HATE the Texas heat but its even worse being 7 months pregnant :)

I've had the BEST time being "home." I've had 2 baby showers, spent lots of time with family and friends and even helped my sister pick out her wedding dress!!! It was a great way to spend my last trip home before my lil' man comes in October! Don't know when I'll be able to bring him to Ohio to meet everyone but praying it's sooner than later. Enjoy the pictures from my baby showers!!! Thanks to mommy, Hannah, Liz, Laura and Erin for making them so SPECIAL! Love y'all!

P.S. I'll post pictures from my "Pickles n Ice Cream" Shower when I'm home. My mom's computer is too SLOW.
