It's A Girl!!

Yesterday afternoon Jake, Tucker and I went to have an ultrasound to find out if we are having a boy or a girl. Tucker has been wanting a little brother so he didn't know why we were even there since he said it was a boy. The lady told him that he was going to have a baby sister and I think he was in a little shock, he just said, "ugh" Then as she showed him her head and back and feet and hands he became more and more excited! I am so blessed to have Tucker my "baby boy" and now a baby girl to buy bows, dolls and purses for! In pink of course!

Tucker's first soccer game!






Well today was Tucker's first soccer game. We were all really excited. Since he didn't do so well at t-ball we thought maybe he would actually pay attention this time. Just like T-ball he does great at home and at practice. He runs and kicks the ball tries to score goals and everything. This morning however when it comes to game time... he just stands there. Ocassionally he will run after the ball then barely kicks it. He is afarid to kick it away from the other kids and said he would rather just watch. Being the competive person that I am, this drove me nuts once again. I don't understand why he just stands there. At least he looked cute. His shirt, shorts and socks the team ordered are all about 4 sizes too large and he had a hard time keeping his shorts up when he did make those few strides. We will keep practicing and maybe next week will be better.

A nice evening walk




After dinner tonight Jake, Tucker and I decided to go on a walk. Of course we took Molly and Scout! The weather was so nice out that we ended up walking for over an hour, just talking to Tucker and enjoying our time together. We found a new trial and Tucker had BIG plans for a hay ride. A brightly colored hot air balloon flew over our house quite low this evening too, which was a first for Tucker. He saw, "the fire and everything." It ended up landing about 300 yards from our house. Tonight was very refreshing spending time with my family and enjoying the beauty that God has created around us. Only about 10 more days until we find out if we will welcome a new baby girl or boy to our family in Feburary.
