Sweet Cousins

Kevin’s other sister Kellie and her husband Nick came to celebrate the graduation, as well.  That meant Will and I FINALLY got to meet sweet baby Jackson in person!!  We had been left out!  We really enjoyed getting to see him and spend some time with him.  He’s a sweet, precious boy and Will loved him instantly!  We hope to spend a lot more time with this cute kiddo!

Congrats Kayse!

Last weekend Kevin’s little sister, Kayse, graduated from OU!  We are so very proud of her!  I even sucked it up and was a good sport about attending an OU event.  :)  We were very excited to celebrate this big milestone with all of Kevin’s family.  Kayse we wish you the best in all your future endeavors!  We are so proud of you for how far you’ve come and can’t wait to see what the future holds!  I got a few pics (of course).  Kayse is the one standing infront of the green backdrop getting her official pic taken right before she gets her diploma. Below I caught her on the big screen!  I had a pic of me on the big screen at Tech and thought I would see if I could catch her, too. The graduate and her family!!  Way to go Kayse!!

Sleeping prince

Caught this sweet moment tonight. Things to note: sweaty head (every night). One hand on the blankie tag (also a regular sight, holding must sooth him). And he's been asleep for over an hour and he is still holding onto the bug catcher toy that came in his kids meal - ha! Love this boy so much! Makes me want to crawl in with him!

Great Grandparents!

Will's great grandparents are here from Florida for Kayse's graduation! Will hasn't seen them in a year but bonded with them again in no time! Love these sweet pics of him with them last night. Sweet memories!

Happy Birthday Allyson!

Happy Birthday Allyson (Ally)!  We hope you have a wonderful day!  Thank you for being such a wonderful mom to Kevin and Ally to Will!  He sure loves you and loves the time he spends with you!  He loves your Wednesday dates!  May your year be filled with lots of love and happiness!  Happy Birthday!!

Preggo Update

It is hard to believe but I am already 30 weeks pregnant!  Wow.  It has gone quick - but I am ready for it to be done!  I am officially starting to get uncomfortable and having trouble sleeping.  The back is hurting, etc.  You know - all the normal 3rd trimester fun stuff.  Everything seems to be progressing well.  I measure right on target and my blood work was all good.  The hardest part is the exhaustion.  I am tired.  The good part is that so far (knock on wood) I have not really swelled much.  By this point with Will I was swelling quite a lot.  I am still wearing my rings and shoes right now!  I try hard to keep my feet up when I can.  I am praying I don't hit that massive swelling like I did last time.  I do have the chubby face/neck like I did last time.  I guess that's just part of it.  Hopefully it goes away like it did last time!  She is moving a ton and I am so curious as to what she will be like.  Will was such a good baby - will she be one, too?  What will Will think of her?  We are really playing up the big brother role and him being a big helper.  He acts excited now but when we mentioned that I will be Kendall's mommy, too, - he doesn't seem to like that much.  Her room is really coming along.  It is very girlie!  We have gotten a lot of little girl clothes - so no doubt she'll be well dressed!  We just need a few things before she arrives.  And we need to clean out a few closets.  Right now I can't put her cute clothes in her closet - that was the spare closest and our place to stick stuff that we didn't know what to do with.  Ha!  Better get moving on that!  Mostly, we just anxiously await her arrival.  10 weeks or less (hopefully less) to go!!

Fun Friends

It has been fun to see Will make friends at such a young age.  Here are a few random pics of him with some friends.  A few months back Will took his friends Jack & Bryce to the hockey game.  They had a fun time and were so good!  They all loved it! Will has been spoiled by getting to use the suite.  We’ll definitely have to take him to some nose bleed seats at some point so he sees the games like we all did growing up! Some of Will’s school friends have met at a park a few times.  They run and play and have the best time.  I love this one of Will & Jack – they are so funny together! Here was the gang that went the last time.  I hope he continues to make good friends!!
