Adam and the Annoying Guitar

Here's the story.
1. Adam decides he wants to learn an instrument.
2. Adam buys a guitar & a BOOK.
Does he know music? No. Does he get lessons? No. Do we know anyone who plays? No. Does he drive the family crazy? Yeeesssssss!
Here's the part that's the MOST fun (sarcastic).... He realizes why Nicole is a teacher.. because she can read the book & figure things out and teach him. duh! So now he drives Nicole even more crazy!
**Sigh** I now hate the guitar. I can't even talk to him. I say put it down so I can tell you something & he says I promise I won't play. I start my story & then "pluck", say a few more words, "pluck", then I get mad and stop talking. Haha, I'm not kidding :) I just read him this post & now we're both cracking up!

2 Weeks to Baby!

Adam & I were out again last night with friends, but we ate alone first and got on the subject of the new baby. We realized we have only 2 weeks or less! Yikes! I think we already knew this, but just making sure of it in our minds was kinda weird. Plus, he was folding clothes this morning & I had thrown some baby clothes in the wash that I'm bringing to the hospital. He picked one up to fold and said "oh my gosh". Which is the exact same reaction we had with Baylor's first little clothes, but we've forgotten! Haha. It's so sweet.

Just a Baylor Story

I'm just posting to prove that my son can be quite funny (which I know is unbelievable to those of you who have met him and uncomfortably sat through his silent treatment)! He wants to do karate so I told him today that we could stop by Bushi Ban (local studio). And while he normally is not listening to me & just sitting in the back seat in his own world, he looks up with a raised eyebrow and says "Bushy what now?" Hee hee, I cracked up while his innocent comment brought not so nice pictures to my head!

Will We Ever Ride?

Baylor's feet FINALLY touch the ground when he sits on his bike so he feels comfortable trying it without the training wheels (and, yes, we're 7 yrs old)! Also, all iron, casts, & braces are off his arm so he can steer. So we've been practicing in the afternoons. He's almost got it, and I can't wait.

Flag Football Sounds so Easy!

So Adam plays in a softball league and has for years. Well a couple of weeks ago, one of the guys on his team calls him to see if he wants to join the flag football team & he, of course, is all for it. So I tell him I'm a bit worried because although he LOOKS like he is in impeccable shape, he is not, by far! haha Flag football has kicked his booty. They play 2 games each night (they didn't mention that tidbit)& he comes home and soaks in a bath and complains that he's getting too old for this shit (I guess I can write shit). I wish I could post a picture! :)

Rock-A-Bye Baby

We picked up the new rocker yesterday & I can't get out of it. I really don't know why I haven't had a rocker since Baylor was little! I love to rock & I knew it, but I just never thought about buying another one for our living room. So this is now my spot while watching tv & playing online. Adeline will be getting plenty of rocking time in the next couple of weeks before she arrives!

Baylor reads to Adeline

It's the cutest thing. We've been going to the library a lot and getting these cooky Captain Underpants books that Baylor loves! They're very boyish. Anyway, he sits by me and reads a chapter to Adeline, and she'll move around in my belly. He thinks it's the coolest :)

Adeline's Arrival is Scheduled!

My c-section is scheduled for August 5th! Adam and I don't think she will make it that far, but we shall see! We have most everything ready. Her room is ready & we ordered the glider rocker. So we are waiting on the rocker and the baby! I can't believe this is happening sometimes. Baylor is still very excited to meet her, and Adam said the other night that he's excited about having 2 kids but maybe not the lack of sleep! haha

Summer Fun!

I love summer! We kept Braden & Carter for a few days this past week & went to swim at Uncle Wes and Sara's. It was a lot of fun. Baylor is taking swimming lessons again this summer since he got his arm fixed. Carter was so funny in the pool. He belly flopped in over a dozen times! We were in pain just watching him :)
