Random July Pics

Borrowing Uncle B's Hat while I am trying to get into Grandma G's make-up bag!

Hannah letting herself into Uncle P's room...notice her "purse"!


Uncle B, Hannah and Her Purse

Hannah is on her way to feed the duckies! She is holding the bread for the duckies and wearing her rain boots since it had rained for like 3 days straight! Notice the pigtails! FUN!!

Visits to Victoria Mall

Hannah riding in her Pink Car

Yes, Hannah is at the wheel in her Pink Car!


Hannah taking a ride in the Ice Cream Truck!

Hannah is munching on a "snackie" while she is sitting on a "big girl chair". She played so hard that she needed some nourishment in the form of a "snackie"!

Grandma and Papa Childress recently introduced Hannah to her Pink Car at the mall. She LOVES to ride in it! It moves a little bit, flashes some lights and plays some music after you insert 75 cents. Since then, I dare not leave the house to go to the mall without 3 quarters! After Hannah plays in the Play Area and drives her Pink Car, we get a little "snackie" in the form of a little mix of pretzels, cheerios and chex cereal. YUMMY!

Daddy and Hannah at the Park

Daddy and Hannah on the "Big Part" of the Playground

Weeeeeee!!!!!!

Hannah and Daddy after the 9th Time They Rode the Slide!

Hannah loves to go to the Park in Victoria to feed the duckies and "play, play" at the playground. One of the exciting things that happens when Daddy comes is that Hannah can go "up" on the big slides with him. Daddy and Hannah seriously rode that slide in the picture AT LEAST 8 times! She just kept saying-again and more! Poor Daddy almost breaks his back riding in the slide with Hannah, but it is all worth it to see the smile on Hannah's face!

Profile of Baby Boy

Baby Boy's Face


BOY!!! Caleb and I went to our "big ultrasound" on Friday, July 18th (exactly 2 years to the date that we found out that Hannah was a girl!!). We saw Baby Boy's parts, and there was no doubt he was a boy! Unfortunately, he was hiding behind my belly button, so a picture could not be taken of his parts, but that's ok...we know what we saw! He is measuring perfectly and actually still a week ahead of the due date like the last ultrasound. He was 1 lb! We also found out that I have a low lying placenta-it is about 2 cm away from the cervix. The nurse and doctor said that in about 95% of these cases the placenta will move up and out of the way (which is what you want) as the uterus grows. We will continue to pray for that and the health of our Baby Boy! I go back on July 29th for a monthly check-up. I will have another ultrasound to check on the placenta on Friday, September 12th...it will be exciting to see our baby boy again! We never had another ultrasound with Hannah since she decided to make an early entrance! Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers!!

Tag! I'm it! You're next!

I was tagged by Keturah...so here goes!
1. If you could inherit a comfortable home in any city in the world that you could use but not sell, where would you want it to be?
Well, this one is easy for me considering the fact that I have yet to own and/or live in a home. I would say a nice, spacious 4 bedroom/ 2 bath/ 2 living/ 2 dining home in any city that Caleb is able to have a job in. 1 story/ 2 story doesn't matter to me. I would like a nice backyard and to live in or near a cul-de-sac would be great for our kids.
2. If you could be instantly fluent in one other language that you currently do not read or speak, which would it be? Why?
I would say Spanish given the fact that I live in Texas. I did take 3 years of it in high school...and a semester in college...
3. If you were given an hour to spend an unlimited amount of money in any store in the world where would it be?
I would agree with Keturah...Super Target...there is so much you can buy there...groceries, clothes, diapers, furniture...I think you get the picture!
4. If you had to give your children to the care of someone famous, whom would you pick?
This is a hard one...what famous person has a stable marriage and/or family life?! I would say Judge Greg Mathis but I don't believe he is married yet-he has done a lot in his life to turn it around, become successful, etc, but our kids need a mommy and daddy around. How about David Robinson-the ex-San Antonio Spurs player?! He is a good Christian man with a stable marriage and family, plus since he lives in San Antonio, the kids would be in the same state as their grandparents. I think I thought too much about that one!
5. If you could cast an actor now alive to play you in a new film, what kind of film would it be and whom would you choose?
Andie McDowell would play me in a chick flick/love story.
6. If you could have an elegant dinner alone with anyone presently alive, whether you know them or not, who would you want it to be?
Chef Gordon Ramsay so he could share some delicious recipes with me!
7. If you could resolve any single dispute, anywhere in the world what would you solve?
How about bringing back some morality and stability within the American family?! I think if we resolved that, many other problems would magically disappear too!
8. If you were instantly able to play one musical instrument perfectly that you have never played before, what would it be?
The piano.
It's my turn to tag someone -Kristina and Jen
