Soccer Pictures

Post 3 of the day!
I finally got Aiden's soccer pictures. Not sure if I posted about this but silly me filled out the form, the entire check...but did I sign it?! haha NO! Oops! At least I got them mailed once I signed it. hahaha

Let me say it was hard to get him to stand still on this VERY hot day! (I was sweating just standing there)...all these people staring at him was scary so he wanted to stand next to Mommy. Handsome boy!

The group picture was a different story. lol Getting five 3 almost 4 year olds and one 2.5 year old to stand together and sit still was IMPOSSIBLE! We bribed with M&Ms! haha As you can see Aiden has finished his and is wanting another one. hahaha

Aiden learned so much this season and will kick on command now. Maybe next year he will play more in the games!

It's a ......

BOY!!!!!

I kind of thought it was a boy the whole time...but then some days I felt like it was a girl because everything is sooo different than with Aiden. Carrying much higher, sick sick sick, and my skin has taken a turn for the worst.

Either way we are REALLY excited! One healthy baby progressing right on track, maybe this one won't be as big as Aiden. It was funny he kept on flashing his manhood to us the whole time while our tech was trying to measure other parts. Lol Just like Aiden he is proud to be a little boy!

So...what's the name???!!!

I must be honest there was a part of me that was dying to have another boy because I just LOVE the name Brody! My top names were Brody and Liam..and well Liam sounds horrible with Lambert. lol

Then there is the fact I kept all of Aiden's clothes, so all I need for this one is some cute Christmas pjs since Aiden wasn't around then. Then there is the fact eventually I can put them in the same room and use the other room for a play room. Then there are sports. etc. etc. etc. so clearly for selfish reasons I wanted a boy :-) But we would have loved to have a little girl too...Wes is still trying to convince me to go for 3 but I'm standing that ground strong. I'm pretty confident that I am a boy producing machine as I told my doctor. lol

How we told everyone....I texted my siblings, called my parents, and told a few of my dear friends. The rest are finding out now. :-) Wes called his mom and told her it's a healthy baby. haha cruel I know...but since we aren't having a true gender reveal party...we couldn't survive till the weekend with that kind of info. We at least wanted to surprise Wes' parents. I found this cute idea to put the color icing inside cupcakes and that is exactly what we did. Made it fun! Wish we could have done that with everyone though!

Beach

I've been saying for about a week now I was going to post about this, so here we go.

All last week we were in Santa Rosa, FL with my family. Man did we have great weather and a great time! Can't believe when we come down next year there will be 4 of us!

It was so nice to escape work but after checking my email on Monday apparently all hell broke loose. Pure panic and SOO many email chains. Therefore I spent all Monday calming everyone down...putting fires out.

But back to our trip. The drive wasn't too bad because we stopped in Birmingham to sleep. Other good investment, a portable DVD player. Little man sat and watched Cars for about 2 hours then passed out for 2 hours....perfect for our 4 hour drives. (I was really worried, he's not a fan of long trips anymore. Plus I would have heard "Car! Car! Car!" the whole time. lol)

The first couple of days he would just cry and cry as soon as we would hit the soft sand and if sand got on his hands and feet he was NOT happy! But he got used to it, he really thought it was fun to throw sand on everyone. And LOVED destroying sandcastles! We even captured a few pouts and meltdowns....not a true day if we didn't capture that :-)

He absolutely loved the water this year! Constantly saying "Wa Wa" and pointing. Too bad we had red flags all week or we would have gone in real deep, but none the less he enjoyed the waves hitting him. Thankfully there were puddles in the sand and a run-off for Little man to enjoy. It was like a bath for him. Nothing was better than to see him running down the beach just splashing about.

He's totally rocking a farmers tan now!

Mad these pictures are blurry. Took them on our walk down the beach. My lens kept fogging up. Oh well they still are quite cute!

We didn't eat out much but the places we did go to were so YUMMY! Cafe 30A (a must), Elmo's (Aiden enjoyed running around), and Bud & Alleys (mine and Wes' date lunch.)

But the best part of the trip was to see Aiden interact with everyone. Been about a year since he'd seen my brother and his wife, and since Thanksgiving since he'd seen my sister and her hubby. And will probably be another year till he sees them again since we won't be going anywhere for the holidays this year due to the new arrival, which really upsets me but nothing I can do. His favorite phrases of the week were "Puppies!" (Everyone but us had their dog at the house. He LOVED that! Not too sure the dogs loved it as much.) and "Where he'd go?....Right there" (if anyone left the room he would say that and go on a hunt to find them.)

The last night we were there we headed to Harbor Docks for an airplane and firework show. This was the 1st time Aiden had seen fireworks, and did he love them. "Ohhhhhhhh Ahhhhhhh Whhhhooooa!" then his shocked noise that I can't really type you just have to hear it. Oh and did I mention that we seriously changed a diaper in 2 seconds. We had his bathing suit and Swimmers on....well he pee'd alot. So much it was dripping down his leg. The bad mommy I am forgot to pack shorts so he watched the show in a diaper, crocs, and a tshirt.

It was such a great trip I just hated to leave, hence why it took me 2 days to unpack. Denial. lol

I'm back

Sorry I've been MIA. I've been EXTREMELY busy. I'll post more about it tomorrow and lots of pictures!!!

Today it too hectic at work. My email box and voicemail are about to explode. 1 week off and I'm swamped....

But other exciting news....in 1 week we find out what the peanut is!!!!! EKKKK!! We can't wait! I just want to be able to stop calling them an "IT" and put a name there!
