Yeah Kales! Who would have thought we would have a baby 5 weeks apart! I am so excited that Kales out of all people gets to walk through this with me!!!
Jay's sweet family!

This is "The Escue Family" that everyone hears me talk so much about! These people are the reason why I want 5 kids! I started babysitting them when i was in the 7th grade and I have loved them ever since! This family is the sweetest family and I am so grateful that they have taken such good care of me through the years! I had my first party, engagement shower, at their house about 4 and a half years ago so I thought it was so special that Laura was sweet enough to host my first child's baby shower at her house too! I consider myself a sixth child in their family and I can't wait for them to babysit Lawson just like I did them growing up! I can't wait for Lawson to meet this precious family!!
Jay snuck in at the end to help load all the generous gifts that everyone gave to our new family! I do love this man so much and I am so thankful that the Lord chose him for me! I am so lucky!

Oh Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree 2010

Year 2 of our Christmas Tree tradition with Team Elkins.....love it! We now look forward to the Sunday after Thanksgiving and picking out the perfect tree!

Moby's Deck

Ok so I am 3 months late however we took a spontaneous trip to Moby's Deck with Team Elkins in November! Sweet Mr. Boggs allowed us to spend a few days on their boat! We had the best time! We tried to head to the Bahamas but preggars here got a little sick however I blame it on the fact that I was in the bottom of the boat, no breakfast, and no dramamine.....and by the time

I made it to the top of the boat, ate a bagel, and took a dramamine it was too late..........needless to say we cruised up and down the inner coastal, hit up Miami, a few Florida Keys, and hung out in Fort Laurderdale as well. Not too shabby!







I have more pictures that need to be up loaded but this is definitely a start............We always have a blast when we are with Team Elkins however the setting only made it better!!

31 Weeks and so thankful

Well I can't believe that I am 31 weeks however we are so excited to meet our little man. Jay says all the time how he is dying to meet him. Words can't expressed how thankful I am that I am able to carry this child. Day in and day out I hear more stories about women who are unable to carry there own child. It is such a great reminder for me that I need to be so thankful that we have been given this child!!! We are so THANKFUL!!!

We are no where near finishing the nursery however we are moving at a good pace. Sweet Jay has a paint brush in his hand every time I turn around. So hopefully we will be finished before Lawson gets here.

Sunday morning we are headed to Glendale to pull on the Auburn Tigers.....we are hoping we have a great story to tell Lawson one day about how we won the national championship with him in tow!

I need to update our blog with our recent trip to Moby's Deck and Christmas.....planning on it! I am trying to get better at blogging but life is so busy!!!
