HSC Game

We went to the HSC basketball game with some of the kids from church today. Merrick couldn't understand why those big guys with the ball weren't sharing. During half time he ran off under the bleachers and tried to play ball with the other kids. :) Here's a (bad quality cell phone) video of him watching the game with Billy. (And nearly falling off the bleachers right at the end!)

Dancing Snowmen

Merrick loves these singing/dancing snowmen @ Grandma's house! He dances to them for as long as we'll sit there and push the button. :)

Tacky Lights

These are a couple of pictures from when Billy, Merrick and I went looking at lights last night. I love Christmas lights, the more the better. So we went on part of the "Tacky Light Tour" in Richmond. So much fun! Go if you can! Sorry the pictures aren't great...next time I'll remember my real camera and skip the blurry cell phone pics. Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays so far! :)

Famous Guy

Billy's parents took Merrick and Leia to the parade last Sunday in Farmville. They had a great time, and we're dancing to the music from the floats. Delma told us a lady from the paper kept taking Wild's picture, and called us Wednesday night to say she'd found him on the front page of the Farmville Herald. Pretty exciting! I don't think he cares really, but Mom and Dad were proud of our little celebrity! Haha. :) Here's the picture!

Do you hear what I hear?

Well, probably not, BUT...today we had the priviledge of hearing baby Barron #2's precious 163 beats/min. We are so excited to announce the next Barron will be arriving July '09 (prayerfully safe and sound)! Here is a picture of our "teddy graham". That's what the ultrasound tech said it looks like. :)

We are so excited about this news...and hope y'all will keep our growing family in your prayers. We were so blessed with Merrick's healthy/safe arrival, and are praying the same for this little one. I am about 9 1/2 weeks at this point...and the due date we've been given is July 9th, '09. (Merrick was 2 1/2 weeks early...so one can hope. haha) Baby Barron is about the size of a grape at this point. For a person the size of a grape it sure is making me tired and cranky, and a bit forgetful to say the least. Preggo brain already. It's been very hard to keep the secret this long. I knew something was wierd when I stopped wanting to eat ice cream and was craving bean burritos and egg/cheese biscuits. What?! The things pregnant women eat. Billy is loving this, to say the least. Beans and cheese keep alot longer than a tub of cookie dough ice cream. ;) Maybe there are no midnight ice cream runs in the next 7 months of his life. Hope everyone is having a great weekend...but for now I think Taco Bell is calling my name. ;)
