Family of 3 for the last time!

we wanted to take a few last minute pics with our little man before baby boddy arrives!! we are so excited and ready!! could be any day....or two more weeks :)

so long summer!

this was our cute leadership team this summer at the timbers (minus amy who was probably in the office working!). what a blessing these girls were to camp and to our family! love you girls:))










little man up at camp...loving every minute!

















always loved getting time with his dad up at camp....



























































we went to lake austin for a little post-camp get away! His first time on the boat...it was more than he could handle!

































first tube ride...didn't know what to think. Didn't laugh, didn't cry....
















some of the wives went to columbus for retreat season orientation this year after camp and it was so fun to watch all of the kids play together!











brex and aaden sizing each other up...












brex, aaden and maddry. (not sure where tucker and riley were, but don't know that we could have gotten all 5 to stand there!











trying to get superman settled down and ready for bed one night!












another milestone we hit....we recently moved brex into a "big boy" room to get ready for this baby coming in october! we kind of created a twin size crib so the transition was great! He hasn't tried climbing out......yet.











we got this sonogram picture a few weeks ago of our sweet little boy/girl that we will be welcoming into the world october 23rd (or sooner we hope!)










brex got to go spend a weekend with ricky and gram and had a blast! they are trying to get some quality time in with him before they get 2 more grandkids soon!!







































they took him to ride a train and to the zoo....looks like he had fun :)









such sweet times....we are so blessed and grateful for all of these memories we are able to make with our family!

first haircut

so, do you see the mullet? well, it's there because Chris decided to try to cut Brex's hair...didn't work out so well this time. So, I immediately threw him in the car and headed to Sports Clips. They were so great with him...he loved it.
he could have cared less if i was standing there or not!

thank goodness for suckers! well, not the most exciting post ever BUT it was another milestone for us! And yes, I'm glad the mullet is gone :))

Summer 2010!

We have had a great summer so far....I will let the pictures speak for themselves!

one of my favorite pics ever....we were taking maddry east to the pool with us and turn around to find this....he made his move!!

an outing to double daves pizza....he may look sweet and innocent in this picture, but he would NOT sit in his high chair that night b/c all he wanted to do was play!

brex and his buddy aaden....camp orientation wore them out!!


our sweet cousins from san antonio came to visit week 1!

levi and lily joined us at our neighbors to swim

this summer brex has discovered the microphone at camp!! Every time we are up there he wants to be up on stage hearing himself yell in it....scary that it is starting this young!! I wonder who's child he is??

Calm before the storm

We always try to get away before the craziness of summer happens here....without Brex. So, this year we went to the greatest place in Phoenix, AZ. Kind of random, I know, but it was awesome. We wanted a place we could lay in the sun and do nothing....and that is what we did. if you ever want a great getaway or a fun place to take kids check it out. www.squawpeakhilton.com

our view from breakfast every day. not bad.

this night we ate the yummiest burgers at Houstons and went to see Date Night. It was so fun. I sure wish I was doing that again tonight.


we were home one week and looked at each other and said, "can you believe we have only been home for a week. it feels like months since we had a vacation. we definitely need another one soon":))) and life goes on!!

Easter and Spring

We got to go to San Antonio for Easter. This is Janie and Brex playing in their backyard! We had a blast and Brex had no clue what was going on when we were hunting eggs!












Can you tell what Brex's shirt says? It's true! He is going to be a big brother this Fall. We are expecting baby #2 in October! When we showed up at Chris' parents house, this is what he was wearing (it took a few minutes for them to catch on). My sister is also pregnant, so Brex and his cousin Vaughn had matching big bro/big sis shirts. Needless to say, my parents are beyond
excited!!






Here we are Easter Sunday....these are Brex's second cousins. This is a horrible pic but the best we could get with four kids under 16 months :)

Let the hunt begin....

Our two favorite things we found at the CCC Sale this year are cowboy boots and a sandbox!
