Randomness

I take lots of pictures of the Howard Team! Too many to post so here's a few of our journey these past couple of months......
That's some good sleep.
Lo loves her Daddy and Rea!
My BABIES!

Love them!

Lo....
How do I turn this on?
We walk to the park at least three times a week.
Silly girls!
My friend Jessica was in town and met Rea for the first time. She's in love!


Lauryn....... No explanation needed!
I guess I wasn't putting the groceries up fast enough. Lauryn wanted cereal.
Outside!
"A flower for you, Mama!" I sneezed for the next hour!
Aunt Pat telling me, "NO!" when I said Rea was starting to act like her big sis.
That Thumb, tho....
Key and Lo have officially welcomed Rea into their play group.
My Daddy showed up at my house at 10am! This the pic he took.

Just the FIVE of us, We can make it if we try!













"Key" Moments


I bought  some organic bananas.
Key decided to break one off for breakfast.
"Mama, I don't want this small banana!"





I asked Key to get Lauryn a diaper.
He comes back with one.
Key: We are running out of size 4 diapers!
Reggie: We are? Well go buy some.
Key: Yep, we have to buy some from the Walmart!

The Little Red Caboose


On February 13th, I woke up knowing it was my last day of pregnancy. After months of anticipation, my little surprise baby would enter into the world no later than 6:30 p.m! Reggie started the morning cooking breakfast for me because I wouldn't be able to eat after 10 and for the last time he and I ate with our TWO kids.

4:00 p.m, We arrived at Baylor to check in for my scheduled c-section. I wasn't nervous at all. Actually, I didn't really feel like I was having a baby.

4:30 p.m. Here comes all the monitoring and my mother ..... I hate being strapped down with baby monitors, blood pressure cuffs and IV's. My mama arrived cheesing like she was the one having a baby!

5:30 p.m. My surgery was scheduled for 6 but the lady before me had trouble with her epidural. All of a sudden, I'm being rolled to the OR and now I'm nervous. My anxiety reached an all time high when the anesthesiologist couldn't get my spinal block in. At this point, I was afraid I would  be paralyzed  when it was all said and done with. FIVE sticks later, I was good to go! By this time, it's 6p.m.!

6:00 p.m Reggie came in and the Dr. Watson soon followed. Let the cutting begin!

6:19 p.m. Our daughter entered the world at 6lbs 7oz and was as red as she wanted to be! The red gene strikes again......


To say we are happy about our new edition is an understatement. We are overjoyed! She is the perfect little girl to complete this Howard train.
