HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OLIVIA

Last night we had an absolute blast at the Mesquite Aquatic Center for cousin Olivia’s birthday! It was a perfect water park for young kids. The party was from 7:30 to 9:30 so the sun was going down and the night time swimming was so much fun!!!

Step By Step

When I picked up little man from daycare this afternoon, she said he did some walking today! He’s slowly getting there! What a BIG BOY ~ watch this:

The “Despicable Me” goofiness is from that new movie with Steve Carell. Every time Grayson sees the previews, he cracks up laughing!!! It’s hilarious!!!

What a weekend!!!!!

Friday night we played a little basketball and then went to Chili’s to have dinner with GiGi.

Then, later that evening, Rachel texted to say she was on her way to the hospital. That was at about 10pm. As the night went on I continued to get updates from her. She was in labor and they were keeping her and getting prepared to deliver Ava. Morning came and I checked on her but she had still not had her. She reached a 10 at around 9am and starting pushing shortly after. Ava was born at 11:07am weighing 7lbs, 8oz and 19 3/4 inches long. Before we made our way up to the hospital, I did something drastic!!! I went BRUNETTE!!!

It’s such a HUGE change and I’ve done it before but I was just not happy with the highlighted look I had and many people were telling me it just wasn’t flattering. My natural hair color is dark so I hope this will be what I stay with since it requires much less maintenance. I’m still getting used to it! : )

After my hair appointment, my mom and I stopped to pick up Trent and we went to eat at Olive Garden and then headed to Presby Dallas to visit the Richardson’s!!!

Ava is soooooo precious! She has a head full of medium brown hair. I can’t wait for them to get home so we can visit her often. It’s so nice that they live 4 houses down from us! Grayson has a beautiful new girlfriend!

I’m a little sad that I didn’t get any pictures of her and Grayson beside each other. Rachel got some with her camera so hopefully I can steal one of those soon! : )

After we left the hospital we went to DQ for a Blizzard! Grayson LOVES ice cream and I LOVE the Strawberry CheeseQuake flavor!

Next we headed to GiGi’s apartment before going home.

Today (Sunday), has been a day of relaxation. We went to Target to get the grocery shopping done early. Then we came home for a nap. We just got home from getting Sno Cones from Bahama Bucks and we will be fixing dinner soon! Here are a few pics I snapped of my guys earlier today! : )
