The first main event of the month was our trip to the doctor for the 20 week ultrasound....and contrary to all popular belief we found out that we'll be having ANOTHER little BOY!!! Lord help me, I'm so outnumbered!! We are so grateful that he is healthy and right on track- what would I do with a little girl anyway?!?! Not her hair or make-up, that's for sure! The only objection I had was that Brad and I were closer to agreeing on a girl name than on a boy name, so he still remains unnamed--and probably will until he's born!
Brad has many rules for the name- no P's or C's (the boys already get called the wrong name all the time!), no -er or -son ending (some on Brad, that's a little picky) and lastly, he wants it to have 6 letters since Carson and Parker both have 6 letters! You can see why he's still referred to as Baby C, Baby Douglas, or little boy:)
We took a quick Spring Break trip to Destin with BeBe and Pop- an extended weekend was all daddy could get with his new job, but we figured that something was better than nothing so we packed up and headed that way! As we pulled into the parking lot of Aunt Pokey's condo this is what we heard from the backseat--
I can seeeeeeeeeee theeeeeeeeeeee condoooooooooo!! Look mama, there it is!!! It's the condo- we're here, we're here!!! Are we here? Are we at the condo? Geez, who knew that just seeing the condo upon arrival would be the most exciting moment?!?!
We got sunburned the first day and were miserable the rest of the time- the adults that is:) Apparently, I am good at remembering to cover the boys, but not myself:( The boys really enjoyed making "moats", crashing each others sand castles,running in and out of the water and, of course, eating snacks and lunch on the beach!
The boys went to The track for the first time....but I'm sure not the last. Their highlight was seeing Grant, their main man from preschool! They were so excited to see him at the beach!! Daddy's favorite part was beating mommy in the go-karts....but I must say that I was a little apprehensive as I drove around that track preggo!! Pop provided ice cream and donuts on the same night and the next day we did some shopping at the outlets, where Pop again gave the boys their share of snacks!! I guess you have to make shopping appealing to males;)
Here are some pictures from the beach:
Burying brothers in the sand.....they thought this was soooo funny:)
Sweet boys....still for one second.....
We also enjoyed a weekend in Chattanooga watching Tyler play ball and visiting with Granny and Gramp. We celebrated my and Leah's birthdays with dinner out with the Birmingham family. Brad and I also celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. It landed on a Sunday this year, so we dropped the boys at church for kids club and headed out to dinner at The Tavern @ the Summit. It was "yummo!" as Carson would say!
