Baby Number Three!

Monday, May 14, 2012

The Dreyers are having another baby! And since I’m dying to start some baby boards on Pinterest, we’re telling the world even though the customary 12 weeks have not yet gone by. Our baby is due on my birthday – January 7, 2013 and biggest brother Shep is 175% sure that it’s a girl.

Shepherd is so excited about the baby that he doesn’t like it when I tell anyone else because he’s sure they are going to want to try to keep our baby for themselves. So far I haven’t quite been able to get him to let go of that one… He loves to talk to the baby, kiss the baby and tell me things about the baby (like, “Mommy come out of the sun, the baby is getting too hot!!!”).

As with my last two pregnancies, I’ll be writing about every step of the journey, and of course sharing a weekly outfit. This time I’m looking forward to sharing all of the things my four year old says as we go along. The other day he pulled my shirt up to kiss the baby and said delightedly, “Oh look the baby is sticking out more!” Thanks Shep.

Fashion Friday

Friday, May 11, 2012

Hey look! Stripes and shorts. Again! This time it’s a long sleeved striped shirt with green shorts, does that count as different? Listen, I know what I like ok? I liked this outfit because it felt very whimsical and Kate Spade-y to me. I do think it could’ve been improved if the beads in my necklace were yellow instead of clear. I’ve been wanting a yellow necklace like that forever, let me know if you find one! I wore this outfit on a casual girls night on the gorgeous patio of an Italian restaurant and it was fabulous! Not often in Texas can you wear shorts and long sleeves, but that night was one such occasion, and I loved it! The polka dot sunglasses were a recent acquisition from Target after my son broke my last pair. Sunglasses only last on average about 8 months with me. My kids always eventually get to them and break em! I believe that last pair lasted a whole year so we’ll see how long these babies make it.

Sunglasses: Target

Striped shirt: Banana Republic

Necklace: Plato’s Closet

Some Family Photos from April

Wednesday, May 9, 2012

April was a fun month for the Dreyers! I thought I’d share some of our family photos. Sometimes I get so caught up in taking portraits of other families that I forget to take random snap shots of my own family. This month I made a special effort to document us!

Shep noticed my purposeful photographing and decided he wanted to have his turn-

We had a family night at the soccer field by our house where the boys got to show off their skills for Daddy. This was the night we took these pictures for Fashion Friday.

We attended a church picnic and asked a friend to snap a family photo of us. We neeever take random unplanned family photos so I’m glad we took the time to do it!

One evening at home, Rhett decided to become my little baby model and I took these fun photos of him. He gets his lashes from his daddy.

I may be biased, but is this not the cutest?

Shep finally decided he wanted in on the attention. I think this photo is hilarious -

Brothers! Can you say canvas?? I’m loving this sweet shot.

Then we went to Top Golf where {we also took these Fashion Friday photos}. The boys absolutely love getting to hit golf balls with their little clubs. It really is cute. And it really is sad how terrible I am at it.

Then one day at my parents’ house the boys found some old Guitar Hero guitars and had a little concert.

And we went to a baseball game with Papa!

Busy fun month!

Vacaaaaaaa!

Peace
