Basketball

I had to use the ladder today to get plants down of the plant shelf in the entry.

(I am way behind, but I am still trying to get the fake tree up there and decorated.)

The next thing I know Will is "shooting" basketballs through the steps of the ladder. It turned out to be the best toy today, he is loving it! Come on Christmas, mommy is waiting for Will's new toy!

Holiday Catch Up

Here are some pictures from Thanksgiving weekend. We have been fighting a stomach bug in the house since the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. Will had it first, then daddy and mommy has yet to have any problems.....well health problems anyway, two "kids" to take care of did not make for an easy work week.

Here we are after we picked out our tree! It was a incredibly thick tree. I was so happy I thought this is the best looking tree I've picked out.....then it fell over in the house right after I had filled it with water and put lights on it. Daddy failed to check the trunk and it was crooked as can be. We now have a new tree up in the house, it is still standing. I am waiting for Will to pull it down, or Cali to knock it down.

Weekend Review

Here are a couple pictures from the weekend.

Sorry godfather, the buckeyes win again!

We had a good time at your house watching the game!

Will has decided climbing is in his future, mommy is not ready for that!

Here he is after he emptied the tupperware drawer and climbed on in.

It's a Girl

The ultrasound today went wonderful. This little girl was very active. We are all very excited to add a girl to the family. Now it is just deciding if we go with Katelyn Mary or a different name.

Here she is flexing her biceps, or being a drama queen.....you decide!

Let's not forget cute Will pictures from last week!

Above...visiting with Justin and Jordan.

Below...reading books with daddy before bedtime.

Halloween

Dig Pink

We went to the IUPUI Dig for the Cure night.

Here is Will with Katie and Michelle after the game.

Spaghetti Night

Mommy fed Will, Will fed Will.......and here's the result.

Daddy's Little Helper

We sold a TV and moved some furniture around this week. Will wiggled his way between the TV and the wall to "help" daddy. (not pictured, he even had a power cord he handed to Mark!)

Hair Cut!

New before and after pictures!

We went to Cookie Cutters this time, I was only interested

in the balloon they gave me when I was done!

Football Season!

It's football season and I am supporting my teams!

I do NOT like it when mommy is yelling at the TV.

Yei-Yei, Daddy and Will watching the Colts game!

Its been a while!

Its been a while since my last post....finding myself too tired to remember to take, let alone add pictures! Here are a couple of "new" ones for you. Will has been going to MDO (mom's day out) at the church down the street every Wednesday. He seems to have fun, they seem to love him, I get a lot of work done while Will is gone, and while he sleeps from exhaustion when we get home. This pregnancy has been better than the last two in regards to keep down food! I am just finding myself tired all the time. I really can't complain, its been easy in comparison. I am holding out a glimmer of hope that the difference in symptoms is because this baby is a girl! I am sure in mid November when we find out I will be proven wrong yet again! Here's a fun game for all of you out there......(and to see who is reading this)

Email or post your favorite boy or girl name.....

Here are the requirements:

Boy: middle name Mark

Girl: middle name Mary

1 New Peanut!

It's official, we saw 1 new little peanut at the doctor's office today.

Some of you already know, some do not, but we are expecting another Lewis to the family.

My due date is April 5, but the doctor and I will be planning on having this new little peanut (I refuse to say boy until the 20 week appointment where it will be confirmed I am sure) in mid-March. I am guessing sometime between March 8 - 20. I have been informed that March 11 would be a great day to have a little girl, mom said I wouldn't have to name her Florence but the date would be nice! Thanks for those of you that have sent well wishes!

We will be sure to keep everyone up to date.

Birthday! yeah!

I had a wonderful birthday. We went to the zoo on Friday, had a party and cake on Saturday.
I think all our family and friends that could make it enjoyed a hot summer day!

Big Day

I turn one tomorrow!

So today I celebrated by learning how to climb from the pillow on the ground onto the couch.

Then I had a busy afternoon with Jordan, Mumma and mommy.....so busy I passed out during my bottle on Jordan's lap.

Pictures

The big birthday is exactly a week away and mommy is having a harder time with it then she ever would have thought. Here are some of the pictures we had taken for the big day.

1 year is too near!

Here are a couple of pictures that were taken this summer that I absolutely love and hadn't posted here yet. I am reminded daily, while trying to get work done, that Will is growing up way to fast. Every day there are new baby tricks...getting the lid off the trash can and flinging trash out, opening kitchen cabinets (figured out they aren't ALL locked), finding the DVD cabinet and reaching things that just last week were safe. I am making 1st birthday party invites thinking he can't possibly be a year old. This time last year I would go to bed being scared awaiting his arrival now I am doing 10 second tidy before heading to bed!

Hair Cut!

Aunt Fran gave me my first hair cut this weekend.

Here's my before.

The during...

and After.....I look like such a big boy now!

July 4th Weekend

We spent the Fourth of July weekend at Mumma and Pappa's. Here are some pictures from the parade on Thursday.

These quick little orange cars did all kinds of fast driving formations, they were fun to watch!

These "lil'old" ladies were walking with walkers, then all of a sudden broke into a dance!

Mumma keeping Will warm, or getting ready to cover his ears from all the emergency vehicles alarms/horns they had in the parade. They were all in the beginning, so once they were past us I enjoyed the parade more.

Derek and Garry playing with the Weebles, trying to teach me the "right way" to play with them.

June....wait it's almost July

This June has been full of adventure and will continue through the July 4th holiday.
February and June seem to be my busiest coaching months. This June especially. We spent Friday-Wed in Orlando (coaching the Terminators to a 3rd place finish in a National tournament), then flew Wed to Norfolk and spent Wed-Sunday in the Outer Banks (a little vaca, and Mark's cousin Mike's wedding). Here are just a few pictures of our festivities.

Will with some of the "TI Terminators". They spoiled and fought over him all week.
Congrats to the Terminators!
3rd at AAU Nationals!
Swimming in the pool at Orlando house.
Will sitting at the beach....sand on the ball = sand in the mouth!
Daddy and I in the huge chair at Mam-maw and Daddy Earl's.Grandma and Will in the same chair.
Mark and Glenn sitting poolside. (and Sally)

Dan and Gregg doing Thriller (at Mike's wedding).
Why didn't Mark inherit these dancing skills?
Some how Will slept through the dance party at the end of the reception.
It was a nice 40 minute cat nap.
Finally a picture of the three of us...sort of!
