Shep's First Cowboys Game!

We would like to thank Donna, Delana, Stephen, Drew, & Shelly for including us on their family trip to the Cowboys game (aka Jerry World). We had a wonderful time!

Shepherd was such a good boy! He was so captivated by all of the sights & sounds.

What a great family! I only wish we would've had more time to visit.

Shep getting some love from Donna.

Here's Shepherd with Preston's parents, Stephen & Delana.

Good grief! We couldn't even score from the 1 yard line!

Daycare

Well, today is the day I have been dreading for the past 8 weeks (okay more like 10 months). Shepherd spent his first day at daycare. The alarm was set, clothing laid out the night before & a daycare bag was carefully packed with all of the essentials; bottles, diapers, wipes, & extra clothing. But no matter how much you prepare, nothing can prepare you for the moment you walk to the car after dropping your little guy off. Luckily, we have found a daycare close to home with some really wonderful people. This picture was taken today by Shep's teacher. She emailed it to me this afternoon and I must say seeing his sweet smiling face made me realize that he was in good hands.

Shepherd's Nursery

It's a little hard to see in the picture, but his bedding is a sage & white toile with a blue and green plaid accent

I think the mobile is Shep's favorite thing in the nursery, he loves to stare at the planes and follow them around

This pic shows the bedding a little better

Sorry about the lighting in this pic, the window made it difficult

I love this rocking chair, Court's uncle gave it to us as a wedding present 7 years ago!
