It is finally finished. I have to give credit where credit is due- Nathan did all of the painting, the boys made the large canvas', my sister made the initials, and my mom made the bedding and curtains. All I did was arrange the room.
So this is a make-up post. Last month, we signed Griffin up for swim lessons at the Pflugerville rec center. He has always been hesitant in the water- he loves to be in the pool, but putting his head under, jumping off, etc...not so much. Since we had never done this before, we signed him up for the first "stage", Preschool I. I must put a plug in here for the rec center. We were VERY impressed. The cost was reasonable, it was a perfect time frame (4 days a week for 2 weeks) and the instructors were great. griffin did great the first day and they immediately moved him up to the next level. He loved the lessons and made leaps and bounds in his swimming. He now loves to go under (with his new goggles on) and to jump in with his life jacket on. Overall it was a great experience for us and we would recommend it to others.
We just had Reese's 2 week check. She is 8lbs, 3oz (almost a pound over birthweight). This is a first for our family- we might actually have a chubby baby :). She is in the 75th % in weight and the 50th in height (20 in). Everything was perfect- thanks be to God! We are so blessed!
These pictures were taken by my good friend and GREAT photographer, Megan. Her website is www.MeganDrennon.com. These pictures are amazing and really capture the personality of our boys as well as our sweet little Reese. Thanks Megan!
This year we kept it simple and invited a few friends to Chuck-E-Cheese. It turned out to be a fun afternoon, despite the crowd. Here are a few pictures of the day.
Nathan and I have been happily married for 7 years. We are the proud parents of two sons, Griffin and Tucker, and a sweet girl, Reese We love our family, our friends, and our church home.
