Nesting has started…

Hey moms, dads, childcare providers and friends… I need your opinion. I’m starting to nest. My recent obsession is baby gear. The following are my favorite strollers. I love that they have the car seat adapter, they are multifunctional and some even grow with your family. Please check them out and give me your opinions.

House Hunting Update!


This week was the week we were supposed to close on the house that I mentioned in an earlier blog. However our plans have changed! Soon after we went into contract for this house we learned that the builders planned to build a house with the exact same floor plan two blocks away for a better price. So we canceled our contract and entered into a new contract for our new home that will be completed in May!!! The only draw backs are that we have to stay in the apartment much longer then we wanted and the house won’t be completed by our baby’s expected due date. So Baby Texan will have to co-sleep with mama and papa until the construction of our new home is completed.

Check out my Birthday Surprise!!!

Today is my birthday and I felt moved to share with you our great joy...

WE ARE KNOCKED UP!


MT and I are 11 weeks pregnant. I was going to wait unitil I was in my second trimester to share the news but today I woke up (on my birthday) and said this is the day. Since I was 23 years old, birthdays have been hard for me. Every birthday since then, I would wake up and evaluate my life and I never felt satisfied with where I was in my life. However this morning I woke up feeling so blessed. This is my first birthday in a very long time where I just feel complete and wouldn’t change one thing. I love my life.

How is your day going?

I hope all of you are having a great Friday. I know I am!!! Guess what MT and I did today? We handed in our Earnest Money check for our new house! That’s right after 3 or 4 counteroffers we finally came to an agreement with the seller and we are officially in contract! Whoooo Hoooo!

As if that was not enough fun, MT and I were invited to a luncheon in order to support the development of parks in and around Houston communities and to my surprise...The Honorable Annise Parker, the Mayor of Houston was a guest speaker and she was awesome.

I hope everyone is having a great day because I sure am!
