Sex and the City

AWESOME! A group of my girlfriends went to the opening of Sex and the City Friday night and it was awesome. The theatre was full of fashionably dressed women eagerly waiting to watch this highly anticipated movie. I think very few left that theatre disappointed. If you have not seen it yet, you need to go see it as soon as possible. Feel free to leave a comment if you have seen it. Remember, you can leave a message as anonymous just put your name in the comment area.

Cool Dudes!

Grandma and Grandaddy bought the boys some sunglasses the other day. They will be cool dudes this summer wearing them outside. They are so cute I just had to share the picture with you guys.
Whit is on the left and Brady on the right. I can't believe how big they are getting!
I also wanted to include this picture of them sleeping together. I took this picture in the morning when they had slept through the night. I think it's getting time to separate them and put them in their own beds!

War Eagle!!!

Here are our future Auburn Tigers!!! Whit is in the first picture and Brady is in the second one.


Four Month Check up!!!
Their 4 month check up was last week. Brady now weighs 11.9 and is 23 1/2 inches long. Whit is 10.15 and is 24 inches long. When they were born Brady weighed 3.5 and Whit weighed 3.9. I can't believe how much they have grown!

Sweet Lucy Supper Club

I'm a member of the Sweet Lucy Supper Club. It is a group of girls who get together at least once a month for supper, gossip, insanity, and fun. We have secret Sweet Lucy Pal's who we buy gifts for each month unless it's a special theme. For example, we did not buy gifts this month because most of us had to buy something special for our costumes (we were supposed to dress in character).

This month our hostesses were Joy Rogers and Jennifer Skipper and their theme was Dancing with Death. This is what the invitation said . . . Dai Rektor has hit the big time! Not only has he just 'discovered' his latest act, Joanna Dance who stands to make him millions, but he has just married his 19 year old 5th wife, Dolly Dee-Cup. His friends and business associates are gathered to see Joanna's first gig when disaster strike! Dai is found dead, slumped against his desk with the unsigned contract! Was it a heart attack? Was it suicide? Or, as many suspect, was it murder?

We were given a list of the characters with a description of who they were, and what they should look like, and what to wear for the night; and we would find out the rest of the details at the party.

Here's the list of characters and who they were:
Joanna Dance - Christy B. (pop star) Busty Brushetta - Elliemae (Italian Dancer)
Betty Will - Christy L. (underwriter) Ann Calsox - Joy (backup dancer)
Carrie Oakey - Michelle (backup singer) Eve Hill - Stephanie (lead guitarist)
Ruth Liss - Cindy (journalist covering the event) Clara Nett - Jennifer Stringer (classical pianist)
Celia Fate - Trish (party girl) Faye Slift - Jennifer Skipper (plastic surgeon)
Lou Pole - Wendy (lawyer)

Unfortunately, not everyone was able to attend the party so a few of us had to fill in for the characters of Jackie Pott (lottery winner), Danielle Sound (agent and scout), and Robyn Emblind (PA to Joanna).

Below is a group picture.

Elliemae, me, & Trish. Can you believe Elliemae being black headed and me being a blonde?

Thanks Joy and Jennifer! We had a great time. It's always fun dressing up like some one different. I can't wait to see what you guys come up with next year.

Visit to Andalusia

Tuesday the boys and I decided to go visit my mother in Andalusia, and instead of a day trip, we decided to make it our first overnight trip there. That afternoon and night we had several visitors. Uncle Dave and Aunt Mandi stopped by to help spoil them a little bit more. Stephanie, Lamar, and Helena also stopped by for a visit. I can't believe how big Helena is now. She was so small when I kept her last summer. In the picture below, Helena is trying to give Brady his pacifier while Step is feeding Whit. Uncle Dave holding Brady and Aunt Mandi holding Whit.

Surgery Update

We left Greenville Thursday afternoon around 4:00 and arrived at our hotel in Birmingham around 6:30. Michael's parents and my mom and David also stayed at the hotel. The boys did really good staying in a hotel for the first time. I thought they rested fairly decent being some where different. Friday morning we arrived at Children's Hospital about 5:15. We were the first on the list. After we checked in and went through all of the processing of being admitted, they took Brady back about 7:30. Then at 9:00 the doctor came out and said everything went great. She was very pleased with the surgery. I think the worst part of everything was the waiting in the recovery room. When we went back to see Brady, he was awake and doing great. However, we had to stay back there for over 3 hours because we were waiting on a room. It was crazy. Thank goodness that grandparents were with us to take care of Whit for us. I think it was around 2:00 when we finally got into a room. Brady was a real trooper. He wasn't fussy or uncomfortable. He took his bottle and went right to sleep. Whit stayed with Michael's parents at the hotel that night. They said he was a little angel the whole time. We got home about 2:00 Saturday afternoon. I have to say both boys did really great. Brady is doing so good. You would never know that he had surgery. Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers for us during this time!!!

Some Pictures

It seems like it has been awhile since I have posted some pictures of the boys. So this post has an assortment of pictures of the boys with family and hanging around the house. I hope you enjoy viewing. Also, Brady's surgery is scheduled for Friday, April 18 @ Children's Hospital in Birmingham. Please remember to keep us in your thoughts and prayers

I normally start with pictures of the boys, but this time, I thought I would start with Maggie and Belle. Here they are chillin on the chase.
