Who said boys don't do pink?

Thomas and his team had a pep-rally yesterday for their game against Chambers. During the player's introductions, Coach Sikes asked if Thomas would come down and introduce some of them as well. When he came down to the microphone, all of the players followed with a sea of PINK gifts! I wish I could've been there to see his face...Thomas was so surprised. What a thoughtful and dare I say, sweet, group of guys! We are so blessed to be a part of the Springwood Family!


We already had the cute face in the back...he didn't come in pink ;-)

Procrastination...with a capital "P."

Or, maybe the 37th week (considered full-term) pregnancy has just slipped up on me! Maybe I'm still in denial that in 3 weeks from today, or less, we will have THREE children...and they're all mine! But, I'm not ready...well, let me rephrase that...I am ready, but nothing else is ready for Tanner's arrival! I have managed to wash enough clothes for her to make it about 1 week at home. I have washed the sheets for her bed...but, that's it! When I was pregnant with Tristan, I felt like he was waiting to make his appearance until I was finished getting everything prepared. Well, if Tanner holds out for the same reasons, I could possibly be in the Guiness Book of World Records for the longest pregnancy EVER! We still haven't moved Tristan out of the baby bed...yes, I know, this could prove to be difficult...and yes, I know, we should've done this a tad bit earlier! No excuse...ok, well it is football season, and I am a coach's widow with 2 small children...is that pathetic enough?! So, since Tristan isn't out of the nursery yet, I haven't put her bedding up, or redecorated with girly touches. The turtles are still on the walls, which may or may not be easily removed, so I figure...newborns can only see like 8 inches away from their faces for a few weeks...she won't know the difference between flowers and turtles!

Went to the Dr. yesterday, and he said he didn't think she would grace us this weekend...so, maybe we can get a few things done Saturday morning. I'll update on my progress, but don't hold your breath.
