EJB

Here she is playing at Nana & Pop's house before the Troy vs. UAB game.
Posing quickly to get a picture with daddy.
We had a volleyball tournament out of town and EJB and daddy headed to the lake to cook out and then on to the Auburn vs. Miss. State Game. Here she is with Uncle Taylor cheering for the dawgs!
Trey said she was overwhelmed at first with the crowd and noise. She kept telling him, it's loud daddy, it's loud. I think this is a great picture of these two!
With Mimi and Papa pre-game.

Celebrating Owen's 1 year birthday back in August. She loves, loves O' O as she calls him.


Here are some pictures of EJB. She is growing up way too fast. She is loving her new school. On the way to take her this morning she told me, "Mommy, I go to God's House. I like God's House". I just laughed and said a prayer that she would love to go to God's House all the days of her life. She doesn't fully know the depths of what she says sometimes, like most children. We count every school bus we see on our way. She loves them and talk about how they pick up the children and take them to school. We are enjoying talking to her about the soon arrival of MK. It will be an interesting transition I am sure. We have many conversations about MK and what things might be like after she arrives. Trey asked me last night if I was ready to be a family of 4. I responded are you ever ready. Soon we will find out though and though there will be trials and hard times, children are a blessing from the Lord.

This N That

We are getting closer and closer. It is hard to believe we'll be meeting Maggie Kate in 8 weeks. Wow, does time fly with your second one, maybe it's because you are chasing the first one. We have moved EJB into her new room (guest room). She has adjusted well and is really enjoying her room. We have been able to put some of her toys and things in there and are encouraging room time. We have fun playing in her room and reading in her chair. I need to post some pictures. EJB is growing up and learning new things each day. She has been attending GHK daily and loves school! She has made friends and talks about them each afternoon. She continues to be such a blessing and we are grateful for the opportunity to parent her. Our favorite time of day is bed time when we have devotion. We have a book that has a verse for each letter of the alphabet. It is by Suzanne Hunt. It is a great tool! EJB likes to pick the letter and then tell us she is going to read us the devotion. It is amazing what she can recall. The verses are short and have a story to go along with them. If you don't have a devotion book for your children, I highly recommend this one.

Trey has been such a hard worker getting the baby bed put back together and moving furniture and getting stuff out of storage for me to wash and look through. All is pretty much ready with the exception of car seat in car and clothes washed. We still need to paint EJB's dresser. But we will get to it. So grateful for his help and guidance. I know we all think our husbands are the best and the best dad's. I just want mine to know that I am very grateful for his leadership in my life and that God brought us together, which means I am the best for Trey & he is the best for me! And in this I greatly rejoice!

This is the latest with us. Hope you all are fairing well and staying flu & virus free!
