Anabelle is going to be a......




That's right! She has a baby brother or sister coming soon and we could not be happier! We are still pretty early right now. 9 weeks to be exact but we are so thrilled we just can't hold it in any longer. The baby's due date is December 28th which is going to make for an exciting Christmas season!
.
Please keep us in your prayers so we will have a healthy pregnancy during the next 7 months. I will do my best to keep my blog updated with new and exciting progress with baby #2 and of course with Anabelle. As of right now when we ask Anabelle "Where's the baby?" she proudly points to her mommy's tummy. We are looking forward to all of the new joys and blessings our second child will bring for our entire family.

Easter 2011

We had an awesome Easter this year! Anabelle got to visit the Easter bunny the previous weekend when he came to our neighborhood. She thought he was very funny and laughed when we put her in his lap! She also had fun at the petting zoo where she got to get up close and personal with goats, pigs, baby chicks, bunny rabbits, kittens, ducks, and even a llama! As for Easter Sunday, we decided to stay here in McKinney and celebrate just the three of us! Anabelle hunted Easter eggs that the Easter bunny left for her. She had so much fun gathering the eggs and putting them in her basket (with the help of mom and dad). We spent most of the day outside playing in our back yard and we took a long walk in the afternoon. A perfect Easter weekend!

Tulips, tulips, and more tulips!!!

The Arboretum is a beautiful park in Dallas that we had heard so much about when we moved here. After our first visit we even bought annual memberships! It's a great place to spend the afternoon and Anabelle really loves to look at all of its beauty. Each season they do different displays but I don't think there is any better time to go than in April for the tulips. Anabelle and I visited there with my friend Natalie and her adorable daughter, Violet. We loved it so much we took Eric back the following weekend! Enjoy the pics!
