nesting...

I've been busy building my nest....or cleaning it rather. With about 2 weeks to go until my due date, I'm just waiting curiously to meet the little man. Knowing that it could be "any day now" I feel as though I can't get the house clean enough. Moli and Alex have no clue what is coming there way! Moli has found that she loves napping on the changing table. Alex, impressively, has not touched any of the stuffed toys sitting around the nursery. Our fingers are crossed he's already learning what toys are the baby's and not his! I'm sure Alex and baby boy will be best friends before long!

Let it Snow Let it Snow Let it Snow

What a wonderful surprise to have snow before Christmas! The snow was a perfect end to a great day of baking with my Mom yesterday.

Sandestin

We made our annual trip to Sandestin this year. We slipped down there between tropical storm Fay and Hurricane Gustav. Just one rainy day and the sun came out! Of course, we took Alex & Moli with us! They were great in the car ride down. My mom and Mike met us down there. We spent our days on the beach and our nights either sitting on the porch swing or visiting the local restaurants. Our favorite is the Red Bar. We heard from a waiter that Paula Dean loves their bread pudding. I've never seen so many dolphin on beach before. I believe they were chasing the fish the storms brought in. Jellyfish were everywhere this year, but that didn't keep us out of the water. The flag was purple all week meaning, dangerous sea creatures. Luckily, no one got stung badly. David thought it was fun to catch them. I was thankful the dangerous sea creatures didn't include sharks. We returned home to wrap up the summer with a day on the lake with friends and UT Football.
