The lump in my throat...

...is about the size of a bowling ball. My face is red and puffy, my head is pounding and I've been crying on and off for more than two hours... Philip started preschool today! He did great at first- exploring the room, meeting new friends, clapping and smiling. But then I had to go to the front office to take care of some room mom business and he started screaming his head off crying mama when he saw me leave the room. It was like someone was pulling my heart right out and stomping on it... I hated to leave him that way! But then by the time I was done (about the time it takes to tie your shoes) Philip had already stopped crying when I went to peak through the window at him.
... And then the crying started the moment my feet hit the parking lot... it seemed like the hardest thing I have done as a parent so far watching my little angel grow up. I just couldn't believe how fast this last year and a half have gone by. Before I know it he will be driving a car, going off to college and calling to ask for money! After trying to collect myself in the car, I decided to drive to Chick-fil-A. Philip and I are regulars there so of course I got, "where's that precious baby?" answered with me crying! Then I went to pick up Tex from the vet and three strangers asked if I was ok... three! Then off to Harris Teeter to get some groceries, again where we are regulars. "Where's that little smiling Philip?" more crying. I called about half an hour ago and they said Philip is doing great! However, I can hardly wait until I get to go pick him up - in two hours! Let's just hope this gets easier...











Danny and Diana's Big Dallas wedding

Congrats to Danny and Diana on their fabulous wedding and marriage! We love yall both and wish yall the best and couldn't have had more fun on your special day in Dallas. Philip loved wearing his little man tuxedo again and of course loved being on stage after the wedding (his favorite memory I am pretty sure)! Everyone else's favorite memory though is by far the infamous Brosseau boys "perms!" Yes, they really did all perm their hair to surprise everyone as they walked out for the wedding ceremony... unbeliveable! Lets just say I am sure glad it took them 5 years to come up with this brilliant idea (as Phil and I just had our 5yr anniversary this year)! Love you Danny and Diana! XOXO

Philip is going to be...

A BIG BROTHER!!!!!! Yep, it is true, I am prego again, am 13 weeks along and due March 10, 2010! This little angel in my tummy is just perfect and is already so precious to us all! Philip is very excited about his new little brother/sister to-be as he smiled and clapped in the ultrasound when we saw the heartbeat for the first time and won't stop sporting his new favorite "big brother" t-shirt! They will be 23 months apart (like 2 peas in a pod)... are we crazy or what?! We feel so blessed beyond words about our growing family and next March just can't get here soon enough! Love you all, XOXO.

Philip's One Year Photo Shoot

Well what can we say... Philip is a natural on camera! He absolutely LOVES being the center of attention (and I wonder who he gets that from?!). But after seeing all these precious pictures... I think we have a little model in the making for sure!
