Not long now! Baby Brody will be here very soon and I finally finished decorating his room(pictures to follow)! I am so excited to have it all done. I have never considered my self an interior decorator, but with the help of my mom were were able to accomplish everything I had imagined for Brody's room. She also made the curtains...she says I helped but I don't sew...all I did was watch and give my opinion. Aren't they great? I just love them and think they make the room!
With the arrival of Brody that also means the end of the school year. I am very excited about the summer, but I will have to wait until some time in July to get into the pool due to the impending arrival of Brody in June. Our community pool opened on May 2nd, however, there has been so much rain here that I have not had a chance to go. I'd really love to go spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon by the pool reading a book...I think it might be too cold at this point to get in the water :)
My mom and mother-in-law hosted a shower for me at Neiman Marcus' Neiman's Cafe and it was Great! Here are a few pictures from the day...Thanks mom and Kathleen for a special day.
Here are some pictures of what we have been up to since Spring Break! There is one picture of Lucy be a lazy dog during Spring Break...wait she does this every day! I have also had 2 showers in the past since Spring Break, one in College Station and one in Paris (Texas that is). The cute baby cake was made by Jay's cousins for the shower in C.S. and it was YUM-O! Thanks girls and thanks to all who have showered us and Baby Brody with Love!
I am a little late on this post, but a couple of weekends ago I went home to Paris to see my grandmother for her 88th Birthday-Little did I know it would be a weekend filled helping my mom take care of all 3 grand kids...Coleman, Lilly, and Ryan. I think I was more tired than Mimi & Papa! Everyone had a great time and I can only imagine what it will be like when we throw the 2 new babies into the mix. My brother Michael and his wife Jill are expecting Baby Murphy # 2 in April. We do not know the gender yet & everyone is counting down the days till the baby arrives so we will know if we should buy Pink or Blue! Here are some pictures for your enjoyment!
I am so excited because we finally got all of Brody's furniture in and his bedding finally arrived! Of course the bedding I picked out was not going to be released until 2009 (I found this bedding in November) so I have been waiting so long for it! I LOVE it and it is everything I had hoped it would be. The room is still not quite finished yet, but hopefully when I am on Spring Break (3 weeks YEA!) I will have time to get things in order. Here are a few pictures of his room thus far!
We got iced in today! The ice started at about 8pm last night and continued till about 3am! At first we were only supposed to be delayed for 2 hours, but then at about 8am they called and said stay home today! I went back to bed and slept till 11am! I don't even sleep that late on Saturdays. Now all the ice is melted...oh well! Now that we have had two ice days we will probably be going to school the first week of June! Normally that would be fine with me, but I'll be about 40 weeks and not sure if I'll make it that long! I guess we will just have to play the waiting game to see what happens. Here are some picture I took this morning before the ice melted! Lucy and I have been sitting around all day staying nice and warm. For Christmas my mother-in-law made me this beautiful quilt (it is very cozy and I have been wrapped up in it all day)! It is made of my t-shirts I kept from the good ole college days! I had to include a picture of it because it is so awesome that she made it from t-shirts! Go Red Raiders!
