"How's McKellar doing today, Momma?"


Pretty much every day, at some point, Lily comes up to
me and asks "How's McKellar doing today, Momma?"
Its so sweet, she is already looking out for her little brother!
Yesterday, we got a great update as to how McKellar was doing,
so I thought I would share. When we first went in for our 4D
ultrasound, he was looking straight at us and then after only 2
pictures, he just rolled right over and put his back to us!
Thankfully they let me go do my appointment and when
we went back, he was facing the right way! Isn't he cute?
The ultrasound tech measured him and it looks like
he is about 3 lbs, 5 oz!!! All of the books say that at
27-28 weeks, he should only be around 2 lbs! Yesterday,
I was 27 weeks and 5 days, and McKellar measured at
around 30 weeks and 6 days, so it looks like he
will be a big baby like his 10 lb, 4 oz sister!
My health and weight are great, so I guess I just make big babies!
It was amazing to get to see his little face!
So sweet!
If you look closely, you can see his little foot by the arrows.

For comparison's sake, here are 3 of Lily's 4D ultrasound
pictures. I think they look similar and different at the
same time. I can't wait to meet McKellar and see what
he looks like in person!
Sweet little girl! Hard to believe she is so big now!!!!
This was a sweet one of Lily sucking on her hand.

Last T-Ball Game of the Short, Short Season!

T-Ball is already over for the season! The YMCA plays
2 games a week for just 4 weeks. That was plenty of
time for us though. Lily had a lot of fun and made
some new friends. Coach Preston enjoyed coaching,
but was not too terribly sad to see the season come
to an end. Coaching t-ball consists more of moving
wandering children back into position than anything else.
I think it was fun, but exhausting!!!!


Trophy!!!
I love this one of Lily & her Daddy!

Backyard Camp-out with Daddy

Lily and her daddy had a camp-out in the backyard
a few weeks ago while I was in New Orleans. They had
a lot of fun. Lily had a blast climbing the tree in the yard!


Zipping up the tent
They even had a campfire and roasted marshmallows
and got Lily's guitar out to play campfire songs.

The Beach!!

On account of the unseasonably warm weather this
year, we have been to the beach in Ocean Springs
several times already. Lily (and Macy) LOVE playing
in the water! We have also enjoyed riding our bikes
down to the beach to play and having a picnic.

Splashing in the waves!
Lily and her friend Julia
They had a blast that day because it was low tide and
the water was shallow for what seemed like miles!
