Life Lately

Lots of pictures to catch up on!  We are just enjoying being back in our school routine, getting things done around the house, and waiting on baby brother!

Graham and Ella were so excited to see each other at church one Sunday.  And gotta love the photo bomb by Bennett!

We've played lots outside when the weather has been nice.



Riding bikes and driving their new car in the culdesac...the perfect place to keep them contained!

I've enjoyed my mornings with the boys back in school!

Our new favorite game to play - Crazy Eights!

My sweet friends had a girls dessert night out to celebrate baby boy!  It was perfect!  I got lots of good clothes, blankets, and diapers.

I love anytime I get to spend with Lana!

All of the goodies!

One Friday morning I woke up feeling awful.  My dr was able to get me in that afternoon, and I was diagnosed with the flu.  I immediately started tamiflu and went home to get in bed for the weekend.

Bennett managed to get into some M&M's on the counter and ate the whole container!

Another thing that happens when Daddy is in charge...sitting in chairs on top of the table!

Pizza picnic and Baylor basketball on Saturday night.  

Watching church from home on Sunday morning.

The boys went to Luby's after church and brought me home some lunch.

Making pancakes on Sunday evening!

Sweet cuddles with my little one.

By Tuesday I was at least able to get out of the house to pick groceries up at HEB - the best invention ever!  Finally on Wednesday, I got some energy and strength back and started to feel better.  It was a rough few days, but Trent took great care of all of us!  

Graham was so proud of his rocket ship he made at school.

Legos for days!  They keep both of my boys occupied for hours!

Sweet post nap snuggles with my little one!

My buddy at my dr appt on Friday morning.


36 weeks pregnant!

Astronaut Graham!

Wild and crazy Friday night with my boys - buying new shoes for Graham at Academy and going out to dinner!

On Saturday morning Trent and I headed to The Woodlands for our annual family planning meeting.  We started with lunch on the patio and saw Patriots Day.  It was so good!

The boys went to Petsmart with Aunt Kelsey to check out all of the animals!  And then she took them to Fuddrucker's to dinner!



We had dinner out that night before crashing early.  It was so nice to have this uninterrupted time together and set goals for our family for this year.  

36 weeks + 2 days

Monday morning meant soccer class for Bennett!  He started last week, but Trent took him because I was sick with the flu.  I was excited to see him play this week!

Big boy!

And today we were up and out of the house early for conferences at school on a very rainy morning.  The boys were excited to use their umbrellas they got for Christmas!

Happy Wednesday!

Ringing in the New Year

From Waco, we went to the ranch to spend a couple of days and for Trent to shoot his big deer for the year.  We had great weather while we were there!  

Resting up, with the headphones falling down!


Ready to sit in the deer stands that afternoon!

With all the snacks!

My big boy!

Driving around the ranch with Daddy!

And with Mimi!


And Trent got the deer he wanted!  The boys were so excite dot take pictures with him and Uncle Brad.

My boys in their happy place!

On our last afternoon, Bennett sat with Trent in a stand, but he got really restless.  So they started walking back to the house.  It took them an hour, but they had the best time exploring and playing!  


All loaded down with Christmas gifts and ready to make the trek home!


Bennett helped Trent clean up his office the next day!

And Graham went with me to the dr and to HEB.

He was so excited to use his new paints from Aunt Katie!  But not before Bennett got into all of them and dumping them out!

They were so proud of the masks they painted!


B and me cheersing with our sparkling grape juice on NYE! 

We picked up some new furniture I bought online at Kirkland's!

And on our last day of Christmas vacation, we had a family date to see Moana at the movie theater!  Bennett's first movie!


Such a big boy!

All the food to keep them happy and busy!

I can't believe it's 2017!  Cheers!
