Enjoying the weather and preparing for Emma

Spring is on its way!! We noticed this weekend that some of our flowers are already coming up!

Yesterday it actually got up to 76 degrees! Drew and I took advantage of it and spent some time at Jetton Park. We walked the 1.5 mile loop (which really wore this huge pregnant lady out!!). There are a lot more hills than I remember! And then Drew ran around the playground for a bit.

For some reason he wasn't so interested in the slides and swings. He'd say, "Ready, set, GO!" and take off running the same route over and over. I'm just glad he never bit the dust on the little ramp b/c he was really moving!



This weekend we went to Lenoir to go to Chad's friend Garrett's surprise birthday party. Everybody met at the bowling alley, so Drew had his first bowling experience. He's going to need to hit the weights before we try it again - he couldn't carry the 6 lb. ball! But he did like giving it a big push down the alley. And he really liked clapping when he knocked over pins and giving high fives to all the guys afterwards!

The other day I knew Chad wore his red polo shirt to work, so I dressed Drew in his. Drew likes to be just like his daddy!

My parents got Drew this toy for Christmas where he dances and can watch himself on tv. We hadn't gotten it back out since we got the bigger tv until this past weekend. He gets a little camera shy though!



We spent some time working on Emma's room. We painted, shampooed the carpets, and got the furniture up. Here's what we've got so far. There's still work to do, but at least we're making progress!

Simon thinks this changing pad is his new bed - but I'm sure (or at least I'm hoping) that changes when Emma arrives!

Oh, and our REALLY big news is that Emma's birthday will be April 16!! We have our c-section scheduled for 7:30am that morning. We will arrive bright and early at 5:30am - which is fine with me, b/c I doubt I'll be sleeping much that night anyways!! 37 more days!!
