Praytor, Party of 5

We've started settling in a bit and adjusting to being a family of 5.  Truett and Emma have been so great welcoming Lydia and love her so much.

 Jay took Truett & Emma to see Toy Story Live and I stayed home with Lydia.  They had so much fun spending some time with their Papa.

 My family came by to visit and get some snuggle time with Lydia.

 Emma enjoyed the snuggle time with Grace!

Welcome to the World, Lydia Kay!

Jay & I headd to the hospital bright and early for a scheduled c-secction.

March 2011

Truett & Emma's school had 'Rodeo Days' this week so they both went to school sporting their 'western wear'.

 One of the stations at Rodeo Days was a mini petting zoo.  The kids LOVED petting all of the cute baby animals.

 Grace and Emily came along to enjoy the fun, too.

Jay & I decided to take Grace to "Build a Bear" for her birthday.  You should have seen the looks we got in the mall with me being 9 months pregnant and pushing a stroller with a 1, 2 & 4 year old!  :)

 Emma & Truett helped Grace build her birthday bear.

 They each picked a stuffed heart to put inside the bear so that even when Grace is far away, their hearts would always be near her.  :)

 We also celebrated Grace's birthday since she was in North Carolina for her actual birthday.

 Grace and "Flat Daddy"...this is a life-size cardboard cutout of Michael that Emily ordered.  It was actually scary, at times, at how real it actually looked.  Definitely freaked us out a couple of times when we came around the corner and saw it sitting there.  hahaha!

Now we're just waiting for Lydia Kay to get here!
