High school Buddies


Andrew, Sherry and Mark were here this past week visiting from Columbus. We had tons of fun together and are sad to see them go. They arrived late Thursday night. Friday they walked around campus, went to the zoo and then our local favorite Mexican restaurant. Saturday started early with the Homecoming parade downtown catching lots of candy and seeing a bit of everything including horses, bears, floats, pretty girls in sports cars, 4x4 jeeps climbing on top of each other, and reversible cars. The boys then went to the football game and Sherry and I and the kids heading to a birthday party at Waco Lion's park (a couple blocks from our house). We all (!) enjoyed mini-rides and of course the famous train ride that Lillian's been on with Grandpa and Grammy. Saturday night we had Rudy's bbq and played bocce at Cameron Park. Sunday after church and a nap the boys played some basketball at the gym while we took a walk around campus on the Bear trail. We had a great weekend and it was fun to share it with old friends.

Sounds like a really fun weekend! See, there is lots to do (and eat - I'm jealous!!) in Waco. Except for the very weird parade. What in the world is a reversible car and where is the photo of that?!

As I'm laying here on bed rest, I can't stop thinking about having a newborn a my arms. But alas, I'm still at home waiting for this baby to decide to come. My Tuesday appointment showed an elevated blood pressure (same occurred with the other two) and so I spent 2.5 hours at the hospital for monitoring and lab tests. With normal results I was sent home (thank you thank you) on bed rest. This means little to no movement around. Grammy is most affected by this and she's doing an amazing job with Lillian and Jack - in fact, she's doing everything, including taking care of me and the household chores. Wow! The good news is that I've moved on from 2cm (16 days ago) to 4cm. So really, it's up to the babe to realize what a great family and world awaits him on this side :) It could be he/she is waiting for Kyle and I to decide on a good name - suggestions anyone? Here are the first pics of my Lillian May and Jack Robert: Jack joined our family at 10:24...
