Addie had her first homework for school today. We had to decorate her "B" bear for circle time. each child had to decorate a bear and so we decided on a baby bear. She dressed it in her dolls clothes and diaper. We even included a lipstick kiss (she just wanted an excuse to put on lipstick I think.) I think we did pretty well considering the amount of time we had to get it done this morning. She is really enjoying school and was so glad to be going back today. It makes me so happy that she wants to go and seems to be learning so much. She has even memorized the whole "bear hunt" song. She is great at doing all the motions and remembering each obstacle. On a side note just a cute little story about Addie. She got to go to the doctor with me this week and she decided to carry on quite the conversation with him. Well as we were leaving she asked me "mommy can I push the button on the alligator (elevator)" Too funny.
Mitch and I attended our first Razorback game this weekend in Little Rock. I wasn't sure til the day of if I was going to make it, but Saturday rolled around and still no baby so I said why not. Really glad though that my thoughts of taking Addie along did not come to pass because it was so stinkin HOT!! I know she would have been miserable and we would have been so crammed in our seats that it would not have been much fun for any of us. Mitch has assured me that she will make it to a game this year though, regardless of baby. I want her to go so badly because she has been wanting to wear her Razorback dress that I bought her every time we talk about a football game. She also informed us that this year "she will not cry when the Razorback gives her a high five" Last year the mascot gave her quite a scare so she promised us this year would be different!! The game was fun, we did a little tailgating before and as you can tell by the pictures Mitch's sweat and my eventual ponytail it was hot. This didn't bother me so bad at first it wasn't until we sat down in our seats that it became pretty miserable. Something was wrong with our row because there were four of us (me, mitch, ben, and mary) squeezed into 3 spots. I also forgot the lack thereof of leg room at war memorial. My legs swoll up like tree logs!!! Finally the poor woman in front of me (whom I am sure was tired of hearing me complain) scooted over and let me prop up my feet!!! Thank you whoever you were because you were a life saver. I seriously thought my calves might pop out of my jeans like the incredible hulk if it were not for her!! So Britann baby, you made your game for the year! Good times, fun times. (38 weeks by the way!)
Friday night we attended the Springhill football game. Yes, as you maybe guessing I was trying everything in my power to will myself into labor. Addie had been wanting to go and watch the cheerleaders, mainly Mackenzie, so we decided to take her. She really enjoyed it, she and Grif played their own form of tackle football on the sidelines (notice the red faces in the pictures) and then Addie would take breaks to dance with the cheerleaders every time the music came on. She seemed really interested in the cheerleaders, so that was cute to watch.
Dont' let the dress fool you this kid can take a man down. She gave Grif a run for his money on getting tackled, which her dad was proud to see!

Only 4 more days til Britann is here, please keep us in your prayers this week!! I am definitely starting to getting a little freaked out and nervous. I just pray for the arrival of a healthy and happy little girl!! God bless!!!
As for the extra news, my sister came by my parents on Sunday and we had all gathered there to find out what she was having. She had her appointment last week and had kept it a secret from us all!! So sneaky that one. Anyways, she had made cupcakes with pink and some with blue icing on top. She had filled each one with the color of the baby. We each went around picking a color which luckily she had lots of blue ones because we all knew it was a boy!! My dad and Addie were the only ones to pick pink and guess what..... they were right!!! Aunt T is having a little girl!!!! I was in shock, Mitch and I had both already decided 100% boy. I guess my dad has just resigned to the fact that he is going to be forever surrounded by girls!! And Addie well I would like to think she has some premonition(?) because she said all along I was having a girl too, but I also think the pink icing had something to do with it if I am being completely honest! Anyways, we are so excited for Baby Cross and I can't wait to meet her in early February!!
