Thursday night Cookie and Papa came to see us after flying back from their trip to see
Jeff, Ami, Kiran, and Ellery in Tennessee. Addie was so excited to see them again! Friday the girls shopped while Dad worked in the yard-thanks so much Dad!! Friday night we ate out at Olive Garden and the boys went to see The Bourne Ultimatum while Mom and I prepared for Saturday's garage sale. No pictures of the sale-but we did a joint sale with
Cody and Ashley and it was a success! We both made over $200. After a long morning we all ate lunch at Schlotsky's and paid for our $30 lunch with our change from the garage sale. Of course I was nominated to pay-don't worry I have no shame and the guy working the cash register was really nice about it! Saturday night we kept baby Rylan while Cody and Ashley went on a date. It was a good taste of how it will be to have two kids. It wasn't any more stressful than having one! Rylan is such a sweet boy. Addie loves him and loved playing with him, taking a bath with him, and reading books together.
Today we visited The Heights again. I think we may have found our new church home. We also visited a Sunday school class and really enjoyed it. After church we went home with Chad and Christi for hamburgers and some fun in the pool. (I forgot Addie's bathing suit-woops!) Thanks C&C for a fun afternoon!
Tomorrow I go to the OB. All is going well and I guess I should announce that we'll be naming baby boy Doak Bailey. Doak is the name of an amazing SMU football player from the 40's and Bailey after the Bailey family that Keri nannied for in Waco. He actually started working for the Baileys in Abilene while going to HSU. Mr. Bailey took a job in Waco, and after praying about it, Mr. and Mrs. Bailey asked Keri to move to Waco with them and help out with their 3 boys. Basically they are responsible for getting Keri to Waco so we could meet at Baylor! We call them Keri's second family and are amazed to see how those 3 little boys Keri cared for have grown into such great young men!

Sounds like a FUN weekend! That pic of Keri, Addie & Rylan is adorable. I love the name Doak Bailey & especially that Doak is after a football player - Keri, did you have anything to do with that?!?
Cute name! Hope everything goes well at the Dr!
Good idea! I need to find a little baby to babysit so I can get a "dry run" too! I'm starting to freak out...
Went to the OB on Monday, and we'll be scheduling my C for sometime in the last few days of Nov.! I can't believe how close we're getting!
We can't agree on a name--girl names are hard for us--but at this point we're just calling her "Rosie" because J likes the name and M likes to say it. :0)
Oh yeah--I forgot to ask you...
In one of your last posts, I see Addie has a big-girl bed. I'd love your insight on how you got her there! How old was she, how did you make the transition, etc.? M's 21 months now, but we're clueless on how to make it happen, whether she's ready or not, or whether or not to try it before the Baby Sister comes...
