Two New Cousins




So May is turning into a number "2" month for us! Owen is two months old, is wearing double is age in clothes,and has TWO NEW COUSINS! My sister had her twins yesterday! My Mom called us early on Wednesday to tell us the great news. Owen had made his way into our bed, and when I got off the phone with mom I told Owen his cousins had come from heaven and he smiled from ear to ear!We are so excited to have cousins Spencer Daniel and Lucy Grayce in our family and so close in age to Owen. In honor of the twins and taking Mom&Dad to the airport to head off to Dallas, Owen wore his cowboy onesies and pants,all he needed were some boots and wouldn't you know Mom had some for him! yeeeeeeehawwww! Congrats to the Hopkins

PS A few years ago MK dressed up as J-LO for Halloween and now in the same year they both have twins, a little boy and little girl, karma maybe?

Two Months Old














Our little Owen is two months old! He had his is check up last Monday and we got all his stats as a two month old. Our pediatrician has us in the same exam room each time with these crazy wall paintings of jungle animals, Brett and I laugh at the un-proportioned elephant, lion, monkey, panda bear and giraffe,so we had to take a picture to share. He is weighing in at 15lbs 10 oz, yes you read that right our little man knows how to eat and he has all the rolls on his thighs to prove it. He is 24 inches long and his head width and height are in the 95-97th percentile. His weight is off the charts, we are so proud of our little bowling ball! After all that fun of weighing him in and measuring him he got his shots. 5 of them in his delicious little thighs and the nurse misplaced one of his band-aids so he bleed all over his blankie. He also ran a fever for three days and was not himself, lethargic, fussy, and I think I heard a few whimpers . I was a mess, I cried and Brett kept telling me everything would be okay and that all the shots were necessary. I have a wonderful husband, he is a true hands on daddy and Owen and I love him to death. The pictures of Owen with his 2 month sign reminded us of a car sales man, he has a golden smile. I got him a little swim suit so he can go swimming with his pumpa, Dad says he heats the pool up just for him. I think we will make a visit on monday night for FHE and take some more pictures!

Happy Mothers Day



I
love my mom, she is my hero and example. I am in awe at all she has sacrificed for me and all she continually does for those privileged to be around her.My little boy loves her and I am grateful for all she has taught me by being my mom and an awesome grandma! She is a woman of integrity, class, love, honesty, beauty, diligence and humor. I love you Mama, you are the best!

The nursery is done!













Owen is a happy boy. He has his own room, complete with an adorable crib(thanks mom&dad),a fully stocked changing table( thank you julie and kelly)and a dresser full of clothes and books. He is growing every day and I love watching his personality develop. Owen makes both Brett and I laugh daily with his full face smiles, gooos, and squawks and his dancing moves. I have a pair of silky black jammies that he loves to rub his face against, it is so sweet. He is almost two months old and I can't believe it!
A late Happy Birthday shout out to DAD !!! We love you so much papa!

All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
