Emma's Bayou Bash 2009

Here are the pictures from the successful benefit we had on Saturday for Emma and Emma's Hugs. God was so good and will continue to be in this sweet families life. We were honored to be able to help out. Of course we give all the glory to God but are so thankful for Bill and Susan Baker for their leadership and hard work. Can't wait for next year!!!


Sweet Little Emma in her Harley shirt and her black boots....SO CUTE!!!!!

One of my new favorite pictures......

I took this picture in San Antonio at La Cantera on our trip during sprink break. This is my mom (Meme) with Taylor. I just think it is really sweet and turned out really good!!!

Emily's Closet!!!!

Here are some more additions to Emily's wardrobe!!! I love Gymboree for girls....SO CUTE!!!!

My First "GIRL" baby purchases.......

My good friend Kim gave me a $100 Pottery Barn gift card and I have been saving it until I found out the sex of the baby and after a frantic search for the card tonight I found it and made my first purchases for Emily's room!!!! Her room is going to be black and white with pink accents....LOTS of PINK accents!!!! I also bought her a dress from House of Hatten that is so precious that I can't wait to see it on her!!

I only bought the baskets on the black shelf and the scalloped liners that go in the baskets. I had her name monogrammed on the diaper and bottle holder!!!

The Boys are Going to have a SISTER!!!! It's a Girl!!!!

Yesterday we had our ultrasound and everything was great.....the baby is healthy by all the numbers and measurements. She also informed us that "she" was being a little lady by not wanting to uncross her legs. Luckily, she already knew the sex from the beginning of the ultrasound while checking everything out. We are so excited....except Jesse....he says we need to go have the doctor check again!!! LOL!!!
We got the most amazing pictures. The ultrasounds have come a long way since I was pregnant with Taylor YEARS AGO!!! We got one 3D picture of her "smiling"!!! She is going to be one happy, SPOILED little girl and I can't wait!!

So, here is the first of many pictures of EMILY GRACE ESTES!!!!

Prayers for my sweet friend Erynn.......

I know a LOT of you guys that read my blog are prayer warriors and I come to you to ask for prayer for my friend Erynn and her family. Erynn is a friend that I met on a board that I used to post on a lot. We have tried to keep in touch through email but with kids and life in general sometimes it is hard. We created a friendship that I think is unique to have never really "met" each other. She has been married for a few years and has a one year old precious little boy and a baby girl on the way. About two weeks ago her husband and father in law were killed in a plane crash. It is a horrible tragedy and I know she can use all the prayers she can get. Please pray for her and her mother in law and the rest of the family. She is due to give birth on St. Patrick's day and I know as wonderful as it is going to be to meet her sweet baby girl she is going to have an emotional day too. So, please all my prayer warrior friends please lift up Erynn and her family!!!

Let it Snow...Let it Snow...LET IT SNOW!!!!

We came home last night from my docotors appointment in the SNOW!!! It was absolutely beautiful at our house. When we first got home it was just lightly snowing but after about 9 it was BEAUTIFUL!!! We got Noah out of the bed and he played and he and Taylor had snowball fights. They had so much fun. Noah said he prayed it would snow again tonight!!!!
Of course the first thing Noah did was lay down in it with no jacket or shoes and make a snow angel!!!!
