Spring Fling and Update

Last weekend Drew's MDO held a Spring Fling. He LOVED the petting zoo and overall had a good time. A couple of other kids didn't have such a good time, due to our little man. First he ran up and stole a little girl's basket and dumped all the eggs out. She was probably 8 and her basket was super fuzzy. Drew grabbed it, put his face on it and said "Night Night" and cuddled that basket so much. Oops. Then, he saw another little girl, about 5 years old, with cotton candy. He ran right over, tackled her and stole her cotton candy!! We have a lot of work to do with this little man! He's my precious boy and I sure do love him! Enthusiasm is definitely one of his stronger character traits. I really don't think he was trying to be mean, either time. We just have to work on noticing other people's feelings.

Drew preferred playing with the Cozy Coupes to Easter egg hunting!

Now this was pure orneriness! Pulling the goat's ear!!

We're continuing to try to figure out these seizures. Not fun. Long story short - we had a hospital stay in March due to some pretty major seizures. Drew's on seizure medication now and it will take some time and adjustment to get the dosage right. We would love your prayers as our precious boy goes through all of this. You can't tell from the pictures, but he has a lot of work ahead of him as far as recovery from his March seizures.

Recent Happenings

My sweet lil monkey with his lil monkey!
Drew still prefers sleeping with no blanket. For a long while he looooved sleeping with the blanket his Aunt Jo made him, but now he throws everything out of the crib except his monkey. And he seems perfectly content with staying in his crib, so we plan on sticking with that for awhile. He looks like such a little baby to me when he sleeps like this...

...but then he wakes up and it's all big boy - laughing and screaming and running around!

Matt put his jacket on Drew. Drew loved it...can't you tell??? He looks sooo tiny!

Cutest sad face EVER!

The other day it got strangely quiet in the house. I looked in the kitchen and saw that Drew had pulled the loaf of bread off the counter, unwrapped it and was digging in! He even shared with Molly (a common occurrence, unfortunately)! My lil carb-luva!

In February, Drew had a couple more seizures. We are still undergoing testing so please keep him in your prayers!!!!
xoxoxo

Aggies & Longhorns

I had camera issues around the time of the last Aggie/Longhorn game, so I never got around to posting pics from the game. This was the last matchup between A&M and UT and let's just say we think that's a good thing! The fans from both sides were horrible and it was a terrible atmosphere. I was hoping to show Matt & Dean what a great place A&M is, because I really enjoyed my time in College Station. I don't think they quite saw the A&M I knew. We were expecting a really fun last game, but left with a pretty sour taste in our mouths. Matt even got pushed twice by (different) Aggies while just walking around (wearing orange). And I heard a LOT of really nasty talk from the Longhorns (we sat in the UT section). BUH BYEEEEEEEEEEEe to Texas University. So long to the orange and the white (and I know they feel the same)! It was fun while it lasted.

My hubby and I under the century tree! This tree is the traditional spot for engagements at A&M. We're a "few" years late!

Fish Pond

This was the class gift from my Granddaddy's class of '38

We went looking for it and I was really shocked that it wasn't there! I couldn't believe they would've taken it out! Then, we looked a little further and they MOVED IT! I thought I was losing my mind there for a minute!

We rode a rickshaw over to North Side! Too bad they didn't have these when I was a student!

Best family pic we got with my camera! Drew stayed home with my parents (yay for grandparents)!!! Drew was wearing a longhorn tshirt and an aggie hoodie! Baby divided!

Drew is Two!

Our sweet boy is two years old!! Happy birthday to Drew!! He is such a blessing!
I love this picture because it captures Drew's real smile, which is hard to catch with a camera.

We tried to recreate this pic from last year...

Drew is Two - Can you Dig It??

The birthday boy LOVES all diggers and dump trucks - well, he actually loves anything with wheels (including airplanes)!

I think he was looking for cake....

Thanks, Pinterest!

Best Mimi and Pops, ever!

Ice cream topping -- crushed Oreo "dirt." Matt just HAD to add a bowl of real dirt to the table too! LOL

South Carolina!

Drew and I went out to South Carolina to meet baby Levi and hang out with the rest of the Poth family. Levi is a cuuuuutie patootie and is such a good baby! He is going to have some gigantic baby blues! He's precious and I'm so glad we got to meet him. We had a great time hanging out with cousin Katelyn and her parents too.

These pictures are all out of order, but we had fun going to the zoo, out to lunch, sisters night out, Cindy and babies night in (KP and Lex went out), and a bday party for Drew. I forgot to take my camera (crazy, since I got a new one for Christmas!), so these are all of Kristi's pictures! We also took the cousins for a photo shoot, so we'll have to scan those pics to post them here. If you want a print, let me know...we have plenty!

Zoo

Levi!!!

Drew LOVED Gino...a little too much! HAHA

Feeding the Goats!

You like this, right, Gino?? :)

We had a few rough nights with Drew not sleeping well/getting pretty sick, but we still managed to have fun! I'm soo glad Drew was well for the flight home!
