Leah Charlene Long







Well I have been a horrible blogger lately. There are a lot of things going on but I just haven't had time to write about it. So Jake and I finally decided on a name for our little baby girl. I couldn't decide because I didn't want a popular name nor a strange name. Since I was going to the Affair of the Heart this past Saturday I told Jake we had to decide on Friday night. I did this because I was expecting to find all sorts of cute decorations, blankets, onsies, bags, etc... that could be personalized. So we decided on LEAH CHARLENE LONG . Charlene is my grandmother's and my middle name. So at the show I was a little disappointed cause I only found one picture to hang in her room. Yesterday I ordered her crib and the matching dresser so hopefullt they will be here by the end of the week. As for Tucker he is being such a sweet boy about having a sister. He will rub my tummy and say I love you sister or ask her silly questions. Oh and he is still doing good in soccer, he continues to score goals each week!!! Here is Leah's bed and dresser. The room is not finished I still have a lot to do. I love the bedding my mom is making. She hasn't finished the bumper pads, pillows or curtains yet but we still have 3 months. She is so talented.

Score 4

Ok this is going to be really short. As some may know Tucker has not been very gifted in the athletics department yet. He is too polite and not aggressive at all. He says that he doesn't want to kick the ball away from someone else when it is their turn. So Tuesday night he has a game and before we get out of the car he tells us that he doesn't want to play. We tell him that he signed up and is a part fo a team and they are counting on him to play. So he proceeds to tell me that "next time Iask him what he wants me to sign him up for.... sign him up for nothing." I didn't expect it to be a very good game. However, he surprised us all be scoring not one, not two but Four yes count them four goals in the game! Once he scored the first one the game was on and thats all it took. He was so excited that now he loves soccer. We have another game in the morning though so we will see if he still loves it tomorrrow. Ok sorry I had to brag a little bit, I am just a pround mommy!
