Truly, we have not dropped off the face of the Earth. We've just been a little busy. For everyone who still reads this blog and has been living under a rock... Hayden is going to have a little SISTER! We are so excited about the new addition. Her name is Harper Katherine and she will be arriving, via C-Section on January 17. This pregnancy has just been so different than last time. However, I can't complain too much. After the nausea passed around 14 or 15 weeks, I've been feeling okay. I haven't been able to breathe through my nose. Apparently this is fairly common, but it's annoying. Also annoying, my raging addiction to Afrin. I'm sure an intervention will be scheduled after Harper's arrival. The fall has been full of football games, the fair, and trips!
At the Baylor/TCU game I got a chance to hang out with my good friends, Baylor Basketball players, Perry Jones III and Quincy Miller. I'm sure they'll remember me when they're huge NBA stars. Oh, and go Bears on the big win over the Horned Frogs. We're pumped that TCU is joining the Big XII and looking forward to a fun rivalry!
The Texas Rangers made another spectacular run to the World Series (my blood pressure still hasn't recovered from Game 6). Clark and I attended Game 5. Hayden and Daddy had a lot of fun discussing baseball during the play offs. Hayden still proclaims that David Murphy is his favorite player...but he also loves to chant, "Nap Oh Lee!"
When we weren't attending games...we were watching games at home, with our sweet friends, Maggie and Hudson!
I also had a chance to take a girls' trip to San Francisco at the end of September. Hayley has relocated to this beautiful city. I had such a blast hanging out with my oldest friends. Lots of laughter and shopping on this trip. Can't wait for our next girls' trip to a city with two names (Santa Fe). And next time, Momma will be able to drink!
Next up? The Texas State Fair. This was only my second time to attend -- Hayden's first. We decided to throw good parenting out the window and allowed Hayden to ride a number of questionable rides...
Motorcycle...only held in by a shady carny rope? Sure!
A car...which looked safer...somewhat.
And a faux Dumbo ride with Daddy. Mommy was excluded from all rides as an expectant mother (oh, dang!).
For Halloween, Hayden chose to be a wolf. We went to Grammy and Pop's to trick or treat...
In full wolf regalia.
Hayden much preferred passing OUT candy. Best part of the night. Hayden standing on the porch yelling, "Hey! We have M&Ms!" Quite the sales pitch.
Next up is Baylor Homecoming, but that will have to wait for another blog post. I promise it won't take 4 months to post the pics!
