Elle's First Soccer Game

Well we didn't expect much from Elle for her first soccer game because, well, she is three, she is extremely girly and not so "sporty", she gets distracted easily and because she isnt very "tough". It was fun to watch her team though and they ended up winning because they have this really good little boy on their team that scored all of their goals. Elle got distracted picking flowers, pouting, running of to other fields, stopping to say hi to "nana" and many more things that took up most of her playing time. James played soccer in high school and he really wants his kids to play sports so hopefully she will get the hang of something sooner or later. If not, thats okay too because we have a boy coming that will fulfill those things! Love you Elle girl!

My baby shower!

These were just some of the details of my car themed baby shower. It was so cute! My sister put in a lot of work and so did a few other people (you know who you are) So thanks again everyone, I loved it:)

Little visitors:)

My sister, her twins, and my mom came to visit last week. It was so fun to have them here. I miss my family a lot and I am lucky enough to see them every few months or so. Shelley's twins are growing up so fast and it makes me sad to see that I've missed so much in their lives already:( They seriously are the sweetest girls and I loved spending morning times with them because they were so happy. James called them little giggleboxes. He babysat them for like 7 hours one saturday so we could all attend Time Out for Women here in Memphis. Thanks again Hun! Anyway, we did lots of fun stuff while my fam were here including having an early baby shower that my sister, Shell and some of my friends and fam, here helped with. It turned out wonderfully and I am lucky to have such wonderful people in my life. More pictures to come! Here are just a few from the girls lil photoshoot.

Florida Trip {picture overload}

We just got back from a nice vacation to Orlando, Florida. We went with James's mom, sister Sandra, and his oldest sister, Renee's family. Elle has been talking about going on this trip for months now. The night we left she was so ecstatic. It was around 10 pm and she couldn't stop talking and smiling when we hopped in the car to start our 12 hour journey. She is actually a REALLY good traveler, has been since she was little. She just watches movies, colors, talks and is very pleasant. James and Sandra drove us straight through the night and we arrived the next morning. The rest of the week is kind of a blur of activities. Lots of shows, lots of rides, food, characters, parades, and spending quality time with family. Elle was in pure heaven. I am not even sure she will actually remember this trip because she is, after all, only three. I made sure to take lots of pictures and I think this will help a little bit. James and I took Elle swimming one afternoon and she was all smiles. She is a bit of a scaredy cat in the water but she was laughing and as long as her face wasnt near the water she was just fine. We put some goggles on her for a little bit but I think they started distorting her vision because they were so tight so we ended up taking them off. We had a great time and maybe when we have two kids old enough to enjoy the magical world of Disney we will be back for more fun!

23 Week picture update

Here's the latest picture of the baby bump. I carry really low, I was hoping this time would be different just because I was in so much pain the last trimester with Elle because she was so low, but this time doesn't seem to be different. It just must be the way I carry my lil babies. Any bump pictures after this will probably be Bump only. No face. I am already starting to retain water a little bit, so its really taking a toll on me taking any cute normal looking pictures.
