Hank in 3D

I went yesterday and had a 3D/4D ultrasound done at the doctor's office. We got some great pictures of Hank. He was very cooperative and kept making some great facial expressions (some of them I am convinced he somehow has learned from his sister!)

He is a big baby with an even bigger head (though that seems to run in the family!) He is definitely a boy, though we were not able to get any 3D "money shots" - much to the dismay of his dad and granddaddy.

However, when we got home, the video would not play, so I had to call them this morning and we got to go back to do another one. He was not as cooperative today - - he was all balled up with his feet at his head. We did get about 10 good minutes on the video of his face before he decided that his arm should rest across his nose.

It is so amazing what technology can do!

Reese's First Haircut

Reese had her first haircut last week (and I am just now getting around to posting the pictures).

Busy, Busy, Busy

Things have been pretty busy around here lately. Last weekend was Chasity and Jay's wedding. Then, last week we got a new car which resulted in me and Drew finally getting MS driver's licenses, MS car tags and applying for our homestead exemption - - none of which was done at the same place...lots of driving.

I also had a doctor's appointment. Things look good. My weight gain is on the same pace as it was with Reese. I have my gestational diabetes test at my appointment in April. UUGGGHHGH!

Reese had her one year check-up this past week, also. She is healthy as a horse. She weighs 20 lbs, 11 oz and is 29 1/4 inches tall (which means she has grown exactly 10 inches in a year!!!)

This last week has really been the beginning of her being very snotty. She is throwing little fits and not always acting like the sweet little girl that I know she can be. If this is the beginning of the terrible twos then we have a long road ahead of us!!!

1st Birthday Party

We had Reese's 1st birthday party yesterday. Her birthday isn't until Thursday, but with grandparents that live out of town and a huge wedding weekend next week, yesterday was the best day.

I was worried that she would be in a bad mood, not nap or just that something would go wrong, but it was perfect. She was precious. She picked at the icing off her cupcake and didn't even try to take off her party hat! Before she ate her cupcake, she even put her hands together to say her prayrers!!! She wasn't too interested in opening the thousands of presents she received, but she loved playing with them. Her favorites are some pots and pans that Nana and Granddaddy got her for her kitchen and a Mickey Mouse ride/push along airplane from Uncle Tim, Aunt Amy and Audrey. She really likes her purple tricycle from Mimi and Papa, too.

We had so much fun. I am so proud of her. I couldn't have asked for a better little girl!

Time Flies

I can't believe it, but I am half way through this pregnancy! I am feeling Hank's movements more and more each day and am beginning to think that he is going to be as active as Reese was (and still is for that matter!). I have been feeling pretty good the last couple of weeks.

This past weekend, I left Reese for the first time. I went to New Orleans for a bachelorette party. I had a great time, but I missed her so much. Drew had been in Wyoming since Tuesday and didn't make it home until Saturday. I left Friday and came back on Sunday. Mimi (Drew's mom) came to stay with Reese on Friday night. It was her first time to watch Reese by herself. I think they both had the best time.

When I got home, I learned that Mimi had brought some things for Hank - - some new little outfits and some of Drew's baby clothes! They are all so cute. I can't wait to start planning the nursery, but right now, the top priority is Reese's first birthday party. I think that is what I will work on tomorrow...

A brother for Reese

It is a boy!!! I will get pictures posted later, but the ultrasound today was clear - - Henry Peyton Womack will be here in July. We told our families tonight and they were all so excited. This is the first boy on the Bing side of the family since Timothy was born 24 years ago and the first boy on the Womack side since Derek! The girl streak is broken.

Reese is pretty happy. When you ask her to say "Hank," she just laughs. She thinks it is the funniest word. I just know she is going to be a great big sister.

Drew is leaving at 4:30 in the morning to go to Wyoming for the week - - it will be the longest he has been away from Reese. I am leaving on Friday to go to New Orleans for the weekend and it will be the longest I've been away from her -- so we are having a big week.
