Rangers Game

We went to our first Texas Rangers game of the season. My sister, Kristen, won tickets at her office to see the Rangers play the Yankees, so she invited Matthew, me, little Will and big Will to go. We got to see Pudge Rodriguez retire. And although the Rangers lost, we still had a great time. By the end of the game, Will was pretty tired, and anytime the crowd erupted, he would burst into tears. It was both adorable and sad at the same time. Here are some pictures from the night.

Happy Easter!

I hope everyone enjoyed their Easter weekend! We headed over to Dallas for LTC on Thursday, and then came back Saturday night to celebrate Easter at Southside and with my mom's side of the family. We got to see Matthew's parents too. I feel very blessed after being loved on all weekend. Here are some pictures from today. He loves to wave.

Will at 11 Months

Dear Will, You are a 11 months old. As we approach your first birthday, my heart is growing very sentimental. I love you and want you to grow but it is terribly hard to believe that you are not a little baby anymore. You are your daddy's and my pride and joy. Your daddy still wants to hold you when we are in a crowd so that he can show you off to everyone we meet; especially at church.  At the first of March, we weaned you and put you on a bottle only. It was a rough process for all three of us. I wanted to wean you before we went on our trip to Colorado so that we wouldn't inconvenience the rest of the group with our feeding schedule. It was rough. The only way you wanted to drink your formula is if we siphoned it into your mouth with a straw. It took forever to get through one meal. However, by the end of the trip you started drinking from the bottle and a few days later I could lay you down on a blanket and you could feed yourself.  Also while we we...

Reupholstered Chair

I finally finished it!!! I reupholstered my first chair and definitely learned a lot from the experience. Without further ado, here is what it looked like before. Before After Not too bad, right? There are definitely some flaws, but I love it and can't wait to do another one. I bought the blue and white chevron fabric at thefabricco.com. If anyone is interested, I might sell it so I can buy another chair to redo. Let me know! On a side note, I bought a few new plates to update my hutch. I got the plates at Target. Before After I think it now has a more summery feel. (Is that a word?) My living room is almost finished. Just a few more pillows to make and then I will post some pictures. Thanks for stopping by!
