We were trying to get pregnant and found out about 3 days before we left for Christmas that God had blessed us with another baby. We had such a blast telling our family in person. I sewed a pacifier on to the mouth of two teddy bears, and put shirts on them that said "Coming Soon to a Belly Near You" We wrapped one up for each set of Grandparents and let them find out when we were opening presents. Everyone was really surprised and super excited!
We started our Christmas vacation on Friday morning before Christmas around 3:30am. We made it to Lubbock around 2:00 that afternoon, spent a couple of days at Michaels sisters house with his family. We all had a blast, but it was cut short because we had more family to visit. Sunday morning we left lubbock and headed to Muleshoe(my hometown) just in time to meet my parents for church. We spent two and a half days with my family, however again it was cut short. We then headed back to lubbock so we could wake up early and head to Dallas for another christmas celebration. We were able to see all of Michael's extended family for the afternoon, and then loaded up and headed for Waco. We spent the night and morning at Granny and Papa's house(Michaels parents) and played with the grandkids new christmas present... a go Cart. I'm not sure if the kids or the moms and DADs had more fun. So we made it home Wednesday afternoon and have been trying to recover ever since.
We spent the new year with a couple of our best friends, snacking and playing Guitar Hero. We put the kids to bed, played some cards and ended our night around 11:00... Happy New Year!
I then immediatly started preparing for the boys birthday party, that was this past Saturday. Cade turned into a Big ONE year old on Thursday, January 3rd. And William followed right after turning THREE on January 7th. We had a frog themed birthday. The kids had a blast. I couldn't have asked for a better day. One huge plus about living in South Texas.... it is consistantly warm enough in January to have an outdoor birthday party. We had a few out of town guests for the party , Aunt Jen and Granny, however most of our guests were local friends.
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. Hope to see you all soon. Below are all the pictures from the last months of events. Sorry there is so much, but they were all too cute!
