26 Weeks Today: Friday May 9th 

On the road again.... Harper has been a busy bee.. We are in Jacksonville, Mississippi for Tyler's girls that are competing in the Jr. Olympic Nationals. Yall.. I absolutely LOVE watching him coach his girls and watching how he interacts with them. When they do good he hugs and fist bumps em' and when they mess up all he has to do is give em' "the look" and they try again. The battle will continue wither Harper will be a Cheerleader (like ME) or a Gymnast (he's adamant about that)!!

Even though it was a long weekend, we had a good time at the competition and enjoyed the local restaurants on the water!

HELLLOOOOOO San Fran! I'm here for the weekend at a work conference and I'm pretty impressed at how well I'm keeping up with my bestie and fellow staffer Steph! Wedges and walking everywhere will be my workout for the next 3 days! We are learning SO much to take back to teach the rest of the staff and meeting some really top notch business big wigs! 

We didn't have much time to actually see and enjoy the CITY, but we did get a couple hours of shopping and Starbucks! Ready to get back home to the hubby and Coop dog!

Dear 21st week.... YOU SUCK!

OK, lemme apologize in advance for the no pic this week as we have been a lil' pre-occupied to say the least with this house of ours! It being an older home, we knew there would be updates we needed to make and trust me we had a long list. We've done pretty well with our allowed budget from the beginning but the ONE thing we "splurged" on was our hard wood floors! Beautiful "hand scraped" true wood floors all over the house and up the stairs... 

Yea, that lasted about 3 days before a good ol' copper pipe in the kitchen busted on a Saturday morning. I was walking downstairs to take Cooper out and heard a "SHHHHHhhhhhhhhh". My first though was a window was left open and it was the sound of our palm trees swaying in the morning breeze!  I then basically had to swim to my kitchen (ok... lil dramatic, but not really) Let's just say Niagara Falls was filling my my kitchen/living room/front walkway with 3 inches of water. 

Yall.. WATER can do some DAMAGE! So of course I yell for Tyler and we spend the next couple days ripping up and drying out wood floor. Then, as if it wasn't bad enough comes the insurance claims, industrial fans, water vacuums and my favorite.. MOLD

With having to deal with all that, at the end of the day we have to remember: We are Alive, We are Healthy, We still have a roof over our head and food on the table.. 

(even if that means outside on a TV tray)

 So we ended the day with love and snuggles from our first child, Brownley "COOPER" Clay Holmes! 

I'm pretty sure he knows somethin' is up and things are about to drastically change. He won't be the "only child" anymore, but the BEST big brother ever!
