Documenting

Since I'm like my friend Tara and horrible with actual baby books, I figured I would document here so we would remember when we're old and gray since all kids have their own "story" Rylie tried to make her appearance in the world this past Thursday. I ended up at Baylor with contractions about 2 minutes apart. My doctor is on vacation, so Dr. Backup decided to stop my labor even though Dr. McIntire and Dr. Zaretsky had both agreed if after 34 weeks they would just let it happen. Therefore, I spent the night in the hospital under observation.

Dr. Z came and gave me a sonogram yesterday at the hospital because Dr. Backup refused to release me without it. He says Rylie looks great and that she's up to about 6 lbs 3 oz and he told Dr. Backup not to stop my labor if it starts again. What does she do, sends me home on bedrest - ARGH!

From the Mouth of Scout

OK, I had to document this because it was so funny. This morning we were eating breakfast and I told Toby to finish his biscuit and eggs because he had gone back for seconds. Brian says don't make him eat it if he's full......First Scout looks at him and says, "who are you and what have you done with my dad?" Brian responds, "It's okay if he doesn't eat eat. It's not like there aren't starving children in China that didn't eat this morning that would want it." Scout's up in the kitchen mumbles to his dad, "Since when do you care?"

I about fell out of my chair laughing, so did Toby. When Brian ask him what he meant, if he meant cared about the kids in China or just cared, Scout matter of fact says "About anything....." and just walked off.

What a way to start the day :-) It's funny and sad all at the same time.

Oops forgot the Airboat Ride through the Everglades

We took an airboat ride through the Everglades on Thursday before heading home. Yes, I held an alligator.

Galveston Beach - Father's Day 2010

Last, but not least we spent Saturday and Sunday on the beach in Galveston, although we didn't get the camera out until Sunday. Shannon and Marcus went with us that day. It was a great day. Landry loves the beach, Toby was stung on the leg by a jellyfish, Scout cut his hand on some coral or a sea urchin (not sure) and a crazy lady tried to grab Landry! FUN TIMES!

Rangers @ Astros - 6/18/2010

On Friday, after a great week ALONE in Fort Lauderdale, we collected the kids from Aunt Terra and ventured to Aunt Shannon's and Uncle Marcus' for our weekend in Galveston. I was "so excited" to learn the Rangers were playing in Houston that night. Luckily, I got out of it and sent Marcus in my place with Brian and the boys.

They had a great time (Rangers won) and there were fireworks after the game. They even ended up with great seats after Toby decided to fun in flip flops and fall down the stairs. Of course, they were thinking lawsuit so they moved them to some great seats. Too bad it wasn't until the 8th inning!
