Champs!

And the 2017 NCAA National Champions are the North Carolina Tar Heels!  It wasn't the prettiest game I have ever watched but we came out on top with the win.  Boys went up at half time and watched the second half in the morning over cinnamon rolls, Jackson peaked at the news and knew they already won, it was much more relaxing the second time around.

A little throw back to the last National Championship, senior year 2005.  I thought I was 'busy' and 'tired' the day after this game, bah hahahaha.  If you don't know, now you know! 

Weekend Goodness

'Why does the weekend go by fast in like 90 minutes, ugghhh' - Jackson.  I feel ya buddy.  This weekend was a good one, but we could use an extra day (or 2) around here, tomorrow is another big one for us Tarheels!

We had some baseball games and special fan Grandmama came to watch!

Climbed some trees after pre-school, be careful Theo, I am no help.

Our Supper Club had a murder mystery Great Gatsby style on Friday night.  Thankfully mobster 'Billie Baird' did not go into labor as 'Handsome Sam' would not have been a good ride to the hospital.  

The crew.  Only one girl wasn't supposed to wear a flapper outfit, the host with the most planned accordingly and let me be the gangster!

More baseball.  Post game talk with Coach Charlie, the Angels and his biggest fans.  

Final Four Game Time!  Our neighbors had a culdesac party where we pre-gamed and watched the game.  We headed home at half to get serious.

 Heels house!

 Sunday was gorgeous!  We went to church and then our small group had a cookout.  We are all a worn out crew tonight but excited for tomorrow!! TAR....!!!

April!

'MOM!! TOMORROW IS APRIL 1ST!  YOU CAN DO JOKES ON PEOPLE!  AND 12 DAYS TILL YOUR BABY!  I MADE HER THIS.' -NASH

Be still my heart.  A little sister is just what my Nash needs.

baseball nights

We are in full swing with SDLL baseball and tee ball over here.  All 3 boys love it.  Someone spends most of their time keeping Theo off the field, throwing him pitches, feeding him snacks, letting him take videos, anything to keep him entertained.  I am hoping to catch some of an actual game soon enough.  Until then we will let this guy embrace being the youngest, not much time dude!  Good thing you are so stinking cute.  

Survive & Advance

Another weekend of March Madness around here.  All is well in the town of Chapel Hill as the Tarheels continue to survive and advance like a boss.  Final Four here we come.  Well not we, although I have caught Charlie looking up tickets on numerous occasions.  A little too close for comfort for me.
                                      

We have watched the games with neighbors etc. up until this weekend.  When it gets down to business daddy prefers his couch and being in control of the remote.  His biggest fans are learning to not ask tooooo many questions.  ;)

Half time entertainment at its best.  Jackson and Nash are having their own tournament, bracket and all, and play one basketball game a day.  It has been pretty awesome.  Only a few technicals.  

Victory!!  Love the hooting and hollering we can hear outside after a big W!

What's the weather...

Last Week.

Yesterday.

Whatever you say North Carolina.  Not keeping us inside.  And I am wearing large black pants and t-shirts either way.  You won't see me in a snow coat or bathing suit.  I might wear shoes.  LESS THAN 3 weeks, but who is counting.  Still waiting for that 'nesting' bug to kick in.  

Baby Sprinkle

When it is your 4th child you really do not need any sort of baby shower.  We have everything we need (diapers, wipes, boobs) and have gotten rid of everything we don't (wipe warmers, bottle heaters, magic sleep blankets).  But, family and friends insist, it is a GIRL for crying out loud.  We will NOT let her wear these hand me downs.  So they hosted a brunch, the prettiest, sweetest, pinkest, little girl brunch you can imagine.  I loved every single minute of it.  Baby Girl is going to be one stylist little nugget. 

Beautiful invitations for the 'sprinkle.'  Everything coordinated perfectly because my sister is a teacher - and my long lost OCD self rejoiced.

Word is out! We shall call her Baby 'Winnie!'  Short for Winslow, my maiden name.  No middle name yet, may be a last minute call at the hospital.  And thanks to my mama for the dress and making me look and feel decent at 36 weeks.  

We even had games.  I said no games, but they were sneaky, and fun!  Price is Right - you guessed the price of baby items and Celebrity Name Game - you matched the celebrity with their baby's name.  Embarrassingly enough I got most of these right.  

The serious spread of donuts, casseroles, parfaits, biscuits, cinnamon bread...  Along with mimosas, pink lemonade and coffee.  

One happy, lucky, spoiled, blessed (all the cheesy words) mama and lots of PINK!  Confession, I never really liked monogram stuff, but I can't stop staring at the 'Winnie' monograms, I am a changed woman. 

Clean up crew.  They had Little League Opening Ceremonies (THANK-YOU for my pictures all the time Carrie!!) and then swooped in to take down the left overs.  Big brothers are going to be the best.  

Big Brothers

Baby girl and I were completely spoiled with the best baby shower today! More details and pictures to come -I took none, so hoping someone else did?! My sister asked the boys questions earlier in the week and then read out a few of the answers to us.  For your entertainment, number 9 might be my favorite.
