We HEART Elmo!

Today was a BIG day for Ryan! We went to see Sesame Street Live at the HOT Coliseum with Casey and Ava. The show started at 10:30 am and was over about 12:00 noon. It was really a CUTE show! Ryan and Ava had such a good time and it was so precious to see the two of them watching and pointing and dancing! They couldn't get enough! Ava wore herself out near the end of the show and next thing we knew she was conked out in Casey's arms! Too funny! Ryan was absolutely mesmerized by all the characters and as each of them would come out on stage he would make sure and wave to them...so sweet! Of course, I forgot my camera...I know, I know...so Casey said she would email me the ones she took and I'll post them as soon as I get them. We had great seats too...on the floor about 5 rows back from the stage! AWESOME! After the show was over, the 4 of us went to lunch at Cheddars and really just enjoyed our day together. Thanks Casey for sharing the day with me and RyRy...we had a blast!

WHAT A BIG BOY!

GUESS WHAT!!! Ryan went tee~tee on his big boy potty for the first time tonight! I was getting him undressed for his bath and took off his diper and said let's go tee~tee on the potty... So...he sat right down and there he went! We gave each other Hi~5 and clapped and cheered! It was so exciting! And the fun part is the potty has sensors in it (which you can see in the pic...kinda looks like he was possibly aiming at cheerios, but not so much!), so when something hits it, it plays music! SO FUNNY! He was so proud of himself! Of course I have pictures of his first tee~tee in the potty...hope y'all get a kick out of it as much as I do!

Valentine's Day!

My hubby is such a sweetheart! He made our Valentine's Day so special and exciting! He told me around lunchtime to be ready to leave for dinner at 7:45 p.m. and to pack an overnight bag...well...that can only mean one thing...he got us a hotel room!!! WHOO~HOO!!! No kiddos for a whole night! Welp...7:45 p.m. came and I was still trying to finish getting ready and at 8:00 on the nose a white limo pulled up to my house! He had rented a limo to take us out for the night!!! We got in and off we rode to 135 Prime for our 8:30 p.m. reservations and let me tell you it was YUMMY! It was our first time there, so we weren't real sure what to expect, but it was wonderful! Great service, great food, and an awesome atmosphere! We LOVED it! After dinner, our limo was waiting outside for us and took us to our hotel. Roy had reserved a room at the new hotel, Hampton Inn & Suites, which is located behind Kohl's at the Central Texas Market Place. It was so incredibly nice! I had such a wonderful Valentine's and I am so grateful that God has given me a husband that loves me like he does and who is a wondeful father as well...what more could you ask for?! Thanks Babe for such a great night!

Ryan's Party!

Ok...it's official!!! We booked Ryan's birthday party at the Mayborn Museum today! I love that place! I have never "officially" been there, but from what I saw today it looks like so much fun! It reminds me of The Children's Museum in Houston...love that place! His party is scheduled for Sat., March 21 at 2:00 p.m.! I am so excited and can't wait to share his big day with all our friends and family! Be on the lookout for invitations!

Jack's Big Music Show

So...Ryan's FAVORITE show is Jack's Big Music Show...he LOVES it!!! He will bring you the remote and say Jack, Jack...so precious! I have decided that I am going to do his party theme with Jack, but unfortunately there are NO party supplies to buy with the theme. SAD!!! So...I am going to be "supermom" and make all the decorations and invitations (well...with some help from Shelly's husband on the invitations :) ) and see how it goes... I am still trying to decide where to have his party, so any suggestions would be great! We are thinking about the Mayborn Museum, but haven't decided for sure...anyway...we are hoping to have the party on March 21. I will keep you posted!

Crystal's Shower!

Today was Crystal's baby shower at Spice and it turned out GREAT! We had a good time with great friends, great food, and tons of CUTE gifts!!! Miss Emma Grace is not going to have any problems being all decked out in all her new clothes and bows! I had to "steal" these pics from Crystal's myspace because I forgot my camera...oops! I am so excited to meet Miss Emma and give her lots of love! Congratulations Crystal!!!

Just had to throw in a pic of me & my sweet girl Emersyn!

Emersyn Brook

Misti FINALLY emailed me some pictures of Miss Emersyn last night! She is the prettiest thing ever! I heart her so much! I just wanted to share the pics with everyone, so I thought what better place than here!!! Enjoy!

SUPERBOWL XLIII

OMG!!!!!!!! I just won $450 on a Superbowl Pot!!! Can you believe it! I am so excited!!! Now maybe I can buy my new camera!!! WHOO~HOO!!! My numbers were 7 & 7 and the pot payed forwards and backwards, which was AWESOME for me since I had the same numbers! So, thanks to the Steelers intercepting in the 2nd quarter and running 100+ yards back for a touchdown, I won the 2nd quarter!!! What a blessing in such a FUN way!!! I must admit we were cheering for the Cardinals because if the Steelers won then they would be the 1st to 6 Superbowls. Well...as you all now know...the Steelers came back and won it and now have 6 Superbowls under their belt! Oh, well...there's always next year...GO NINERS!!!
