Mother's Day 2015

I am just now writing about this in July!  Oops!

For Mother's Day weekend, we only had 1 kiddo with us, Natalie!  Aubrey headed down to Tennessee with my parents for the weekend. Natalie had soccer so she couldn't go this time around. I think it's great for the girls to have their one-on-one time both with grandparents and Bobby/I. I think it makes them feel special. I know Natalie enjoyed being able to do some fun things with just mom and dad, while Aubrey got to hang out just with G/G B and G/G Toby!

On Friday night/Saturday, it was just Natalie and me because Bobby had an adventure race. Natalie played her soccer games both on Friday and Saturday and then got to go for ice cream at Menchie's when Bobby got home from his race.

I was their chauffeur for the night!


On Sunday, we went to church and I volunteered with the preschoolers, then out to lunch at Cracker Barrel followed by a little bit of shopping at Sam's Club, Lowe's, and the Apple House for some pretty hanging baskets (which are still alive at the end of July I might add!).  It was a great weekend and really crazy with only 1 kid. I can't believe soon we will have a house full of 3 kiddos!!!


Natalie decorated my card and envelope!





 The girls made these drawings at school. They are supposed to be of their mother, but Natalie took the liberty to draw Bobby instead!

It's a BOY!!!

We had our gender reveal party tonight, hosted by our awesome friends, Alison and Melissa!  Although the anticipation killed everyone involved (because they ALL wanted to know on Tuesday after we had our ultrasound), we were able to surprise everyone that we are having a BABY BOY!!!

Bobby and I have known since the first ultrasound we had when I was about 13 weeks, but the ultrasound tech said not to go out and buy anything quite yet, so on Tuesday, we were able to clearly know for sure the gender of baby #3!  He looked healthy and was measuring a week ahead of schedule!

We had a great time at the party! The girls did a great job decorating and setting everything up!  Thanks girls for all your hard work for us to celebrate with our friends and family!







Having a manly chat :)

Sisters Playing

Yesterday, I looked outside while the girls were playing nicely with each other and they had decided all on their own to slide down the slide together. They did it several times before I decided to grab my camera. It's great to see that they can play nicely together!  They were fun to watch!





Our trees out front are blooming beautifully right now, so what better backdrop for Aubrey's birthday invitation?!  I can't believe she is going to be 3 next month!!!!

Natalie's 1st Soccer Game

Last weekend was Natalie's debut in soccer!  This weekend it got rained out :(

It was entertaining to say the least!  We have a lot of work to do, but Natalie loved running around, even if it wasn't always running for the ball...haha!  A kid on the other team goes to Natalie's school, so she was much more interested in chasing him, then the ball.   She had quite the fan club at her first game!

The games last less than 30 minutes, but the kids had fun and it was also fun to watch. We laughed a lot!

Naturally, Natalie was magnetized to the only other little girl on her team. Luckily, they only held hands for a little bit during their practice before the game.

















The day before, Jaila came over for just a bit and swung with the girls. Here are some of their crazy photos!
