BABY MOORE #2 - SPRING & SUMMER!

I am determined to someday get this blog updated on a regular basis, but I am such a beginner and time is limited most of my days. I wonder why? :)

So far this years Spring and Summer has been great! The Lord has blessed us with some many things. I will be brief and highlight our favorites:

a. Back in March, we were so grateful to announce the coming of BABY MOORE #2. He or She will be a surprise, so get ready to find out sometime in December. Our expecting date is December 21st. We may have a Christmas baby on our hands. Emerson is going to be so excited!!!

b. April, we spent Easter with Alex's parents and Emerson looks so adorable in his bunny smock outfit and Grammie bought Emerson some cute dressup shoes to match. We had a great visit with everyone. We also got to meet for the first time our new niece Mary Katherine Gross. Emerson was very interested in baby Mary K. (I am hoping that is a good sign for us). We also did lots of playdates with friends, visits with Mema.

c. May, Mom and I celebrated Mother's Day with our first Sunday Brunch together. I think we will be making this a tradition, because everything was amazing. Alex and I celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary at the Weekend to Remember Conference in Sugarland and had a fabulous time, except for the moments of morning sickness for me.

d. Summer Highlight: It has been so hot here in Houston. In fact, BRUTAL is more like it. We spend our traditional 4th of July with Alex's family in Dallas and had a blast. We also has our first FAMILY VACATION with my side in Galveston. We stayed at a friends beach house, went to Palm Beach, Moody Gardens, Rainforest Cafe, Kemah and just relaxed watch Jace and Emerson play together, watch movies and jump on the bed. It was so nice to get away. Emerson also started swim lessons and SoccerTots this month and is doing amazing at both.

e. August: I can't believe summer is almost over! My favorite thing so far this month has been the words, "I LOVE YOU," spoken out of Emerson's mouth. I melt everytime he says them to me. :) He is getting so much better at communicating with us and we are enjoying every minute of it.

Upcoming: Alex leaves for Japan for work on the 20th, but will meet me in Sedona, AZ to take our PARENTS ONLY vacation as well as attend our dear friend Julee's wedding. My mom (Mema) and mother-in-law (Grammie) will be watching Emerson. I wish them all the fun in the world. He is a busy boy.

I will have some pictures up of all these adventures soon. I PROMISE!!!
