Baby Hall #2

We are so excited to announce that we are expecting Baby #2 sometime around February 22, 2011.  I will try to update at least once a month on the growth of the baby.  So far everything is great.  I am thirteen weeks along.  The heat has been making things a little less easy than my first trimester with Emilia was.  I have also had lots of headaches.  Hopefully, this second trimester will be much more fun:)  Regardless, we could not be happier.  Emilia is excited too.  She just wants to know if she can expect a baby brother or baby sister.  I think that part is a little confusing for her.  Hopefully, we will find out sometime next month which to expect.  I have added a ticker at the bottom of the blog for everyone to follow on how far along we are in the pregnancy.

Lindsey Turns 21

Lindsey officially turned 21 on July 22nd.  We celebrated with a party in Charleston on August 1st just before she headed back to New Orleans.

Last Summer Dance Class

Emilia had her last dance class of the summer, and Brian and I were both able to go and watch.  It was a very small class but I think just the right size for her first "drop off" dance class.  She did great and was so proud of herself everytime she did something.  She would run back over to us and say "I did it."  Every day at home, she asks us to turn the music on so she can dance.  I really think dancing is in her blood.  I started taking dance at 2 so she is following in my footsteps.  She will be taking dance in the fall at her school.  Luckily, she will have the same teacher she had this summer. 
Speaking of the fall, she starts school on September 1st and will be going three mornings a week with dance class afterward one day a week.  She is very excited.  I am just not sure that she gets the whole part about being dropped off.  Hopefully, she will adjust as well as she did with dance this summer.

Folly Beach 2010

We have not spent nearly as much time as we normally do at the Magee's beach house this summer.  It has been too darn hot.  There is always next year.  Thank you, Magees for having us out.  We had a great time at the annual party!

July 4th Weekend

We had a very low key July 4th weekend this year.  Emilia and I watched the annual parade in our neighborhood.  We also went to the parade at the Elk's.  Both of these were on July 3rd.  July 4th we spent the day shopping.  Not a typical July 4th weekend for us but it was just as nice.
