Holiday Season

Last week was a busy week for us. Right after school on Tuesday we drove to Ennis to visit Doug's family and then Wed. we drove to LG to see my family. Thursday was a day of rest and lots of eating! We also went and saw the movie Blind Side. The best movie ever! Doug and I actually had already seen it (we went the weekend it came out) but we were all about seeing it again. We had a lot of fun! Friday was playoff game day and BLACK FRIDAY shopping. Robin, mom and I went to San Marcos to the outlets before the game and boy oh boy was it crowded. I got sick in the under armour store and had to go sit outside on the curb there were so many people...plus I was starving! We went to 3 places and then decided it was to much and went to eat. Then we were headed for the football game...we won!! So now LG is in the 4th round of the playoffs and we play this Friday in San Antonio.
Doug put the Christmas lights out yesterday and I plan to get the tree out this week sometime and get it up and decorated! Sorry no pics with this post. My camera was dead at the football game and the batteries I bought for it...well I left them in the car and was to lazy to go out and get them!
7 weeks people and Chance will be here!! 7 weeks....wow...

Are you ready for some football??!!!

Our family sure is! Dad's football team is now going to be 3 rounds deep in the playoffs after this weekend's win. It was such a stressful game until the 4th quarter when LG took a strong lead. We play next Friday night at Texas State stadium where Doug and I both graduated from college! So fun! Here are some pics from after the game!

Doug and I and of course Baby Chance! I look like a marshmallow!

Me, Dale, mom and Rob

Kyle and Robin - arent they such a cute couple!
FAMILY PICTURE! We finally pulled Dad away from all the reporters and parents to take a family pic. Can you tell we love under armour attire.

Robin likes this picture...not fond of it, but I posted it for her. You can really tell I am prego here! This was from 2 weekends ago at the first playoff game. Doug and Dad talking about a play after the game!

Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! We will be traveling since we probably wont do much traveling over Christmas since it will be so close to Chance being born. I go to the doctor again Tues. (every 2 weeks now).

Happy Thanksgiving! And go Leopards!! beat Devine!

3D Ultrasound

Doug and I went today for our 3D ultra sound. I was a bit nervous but we were able to get some really sweet pictures. Chance is a snuggler. The ultra sound technician kept saying he just wants to stay snuggled up to mommy. He would only cooperate ever so often. It was a neat experience. She told us he has a head full of hair, scary! I told Doug he needed to bring his hair cutting clippers to the hospital! haha. Just jokin. No I am a lil serious. He has chubby cheeks! Love it!

Doesnt he have the sweetest lil face! Love him so much!

In this picture he has one eye open.


this picture shows his hands and fingers...pretty cool!

We got a DVD of the whole sonogram and got home and it doesnt have sound! We are pretty bummed about that. The experience overall was wonderful! Now the downer is we have to wait 2 more months for him to be here!

Baby Shower's

I have been MIA lately, mainly because I have been so busy with school, going to conferences and baby showers. Last week was a great week. A couple of teachers from school through me a baby shower on Friday afternoon here is a pic of the wonderful teachers that came to help celebrate!
Deidre made her strawberry yumminess and put Chance's name in the middle with strawberries it was so stinkin cute!

Then on Saturday was my big shower. Six of my best friends helped hostess the shower. It was perfect! I had friends and family from all over come to the showere here in Austin. It was such a special day. We had chicken salad sandwiches, soup and caesar salad and the best part were the sugar cookies and chocolate cake! YUM! I got lots of wonderful gifts as well. Thank you to everyone who came and helped make this day so special! Love you all! Here are few pics from the shower.

Rob, me and Mom.

the hostesses - Stephanie, Tiffany, Ashley, Me, Amanda, Robyn and Kate (with her sweet baby Lyla Grace) The shower was at Kate's mom's. She has the most beautiful home.

I will post more pics of the shower soon!

Now before I close....Doug and I went to the dr today to see how much our baby boy Chance is growing etc. I am 30 wks along and so this was my 31 week sonogram appt. Chance is weighing already a whopping 4 lbs!! He is growing wonderfully! He likes to move around a lot too! His butt is under my right breast and his feet are under my left breast...which makes for some interesting movements! Below is a pic of Chance looking at us. (please excuse how large his head looks the dr zoomed in) Next week we are getting a 3D sonogram and will post pics from that!


This Friday is La Grange's first playoff game!! Go LEPS!! Doug, Stella and I will be traveling to that game! Good Luck Dad! :)
