Baby shower for Mommy & Fishing weekend for Daddy

On Saturday, Amy Williams and Dawn Blaker (Nanny) threw me a baby shower for Danica. It was at our office in Kerrville. It was a lot of fun and Danica received so many precious gifts. Melody Gore, Bailey's nanny, attended the shower as well. She is expecting a little boy one week prior to Danica's due date. Below is a picture of our pregnant bellys. We are both anxiously awaiting our little ones arrival.
Brandon spent the weekend in Rockport with his Dad, Dr. Siemer, and Darrin Stanton. They caught lots of snapper and a Ling. Brandon caught an 18 lb, 30 inch snapper. Yum! Yum!

3D / 4D Sonogram

Today we went for a 3D /4D sonogram. It was great. We got a chance to see what baby Danica looks like. The image was wonderful. She kept putting her right arm/hand up in front of her face blocking our view. Across her left cheek is a shadow of my placenta. My placenta is in the front and hinders the full view of her face. Nevertheless, our experience was definitely wonderful and worth it. Our guests included: Grandma, Nanny, Papa, Bailey, and Daddy of course. Bailey had a large smile on his face the entire time. She moved around alot as she heard Bailey talking. She must already love her big brother because she responds well to the sound of his voice. We all agree that she look a lot like Bailey.

Below is a picture of Bailey as we were leaving the hospital:



Danica Lynn Blaker at 28 weeks: she has her hand up near her right eye, the blurry spot over her left cheek is my placenta. We can't wait to see her in person.

Swim Lessons

Bailey has started taking swim lessons. This was his third lesson. He has private lessons with his instructor at the Wellness Center in Fredericksburg. Nanny takes him to these lessons since both Brandon & I have to work. He really seems to be enjoying himself. We hope to continue these lessons through much of the summer. He has learned how to blow bubbles, kick on kickboards, swim with the fun noodle, and this week he was learning how to start pushing off the side of the pool towards the instructor. His teacher said that he is doing well for his age. I sure am glad that Nanny is able to take these adorable pictures for us all to enjoy!

Weekend at Grandma's House

Bailey and I spent the day at the Zoo with Michele and Camden. Monday April 20th was Camden's 2nd birthday. They had fun together, looking at animals, running around, and sharing snacks.

Bailey was awarded a special dessert from the waiter for being a good boy while eating out after seeing the Wizard of Oz.

Grandma, Aunt Helen, Jennifer, Kristen, Ashlynn, Bailey and I all went to see the Wizard of Oz, Sat. April 18th. It was Bailey's first play. He got a little bored during the first set and we had to leave shortly before intermission to use the restroom and eat a few snacks. The second set went a little more smoothly, he was a little more attentive and then fell asleep towards the end. It was a fun filled day with lots of excited and he got a little tired.

Baby Girl Blaker

We have a name for our little girl... Danica Lynn Blaker! We can't wait for her arrival. Bailey is more excited than ever. God has blessed our family!

Rockport Weekend

Went to Rockport this last weekend. Bailey's first time in the new travel trailer. We went swimming, fishing and boat riding. We had lots of fun. Family time was good! He got to drive the boat and fish with Daddy and Nanny. Enjoying his boat ride!
Driving the boat with Daddy. He was also able to drive the boat from the top of the tower with Papa. That was a lot of fun!

Weekend with Papa and Mimi

Took Bailey to visit Papa & Mimi the weekend of March 28th. We went to Incredible Pizza in Conroe. We played tons of games, rode go karts, and ate lots of pizza. Bailey had a blast. Uncle Darryl was there also to enjoy the day with us. This made bailey's day!
