Seven years, three kids (almost) and HAPPY!

Wade and I celebrated seven wonderful years of marriage this month. I have my dream man and am so grateful. As many of you know, Wade is infamous for making these events so special and memorable. We went to a great Austin place downtown called Moonshine. Since our first anniversary he has been following the traditional/contemporary gift list. This year was copper - how hard is that. He killed two birds with one stone. I received an amazing David Yurman initial necklace "L". Then, he counted out 2550 bb's (copper) one for each day we've been married! How creative!! The necklace was not only my anniversary gift but it was my gift for having Lawson. It was the perfect date...thanks, babe. Love you.
I also wanted to update everyone on the pregnancy. I'm 32 weeks along and counting down each day. I have an amazing doctor here in Austin - she's no Dr. Tim Stone, but honestly, is there another one?! We aren't finding out the sex of the baby, so there isn't much planning to be done. We're super excited to know what it is. And we'll happily welcome a boy or a girl as a fantastic addition. I'm swelling like crazy and as the Texas heat sets in, wow...it's going to be a hot two months. It's our last, if all goes as planned, so I'm wanting to enjoy each day. So, 2009 will wrap with five Lombard's in all. YAY!

Melmo!



The Hill Country Galleria hosted a Spring Fest last Saturday. It was tons of fun. Free Chapel sponsored the KidZone. AND...Elmo was there. Lawson was in heaven. Jax isn't so much a fan of large costumed anything. He was more interested in running around with his cousins and eating popcorn. Lawson kept wanting to touch Elmo's nose...hilarious. If I could've gotten a picture of Lawson without me in it, I would have. I don't love being photographed at this stage in life! But, I couldn't resist showing you how happy Lawson is!

Easter 2009

Easter was exciting this year. Lawson loved it as well as Jax. It was nice for both of them to enjoy it. We got up did our Easter baskets (hid them and had the boys find them - it's been a tradition in Wade's family to do that). Then, we headed to Free Chapel Austin for an amazing service. There was a great crowd and Jeremy did outstanding. After naps, the Lombard crew along with Jason and Paige Martin went to Lakeway Park for an egg hunt. The boys played for about an hour, then we went to Saltlick. It was such a fun day...lots to do, but tons of fun. At the egg hunt, Lawson just wanted to open all the eggs instead of put them in his basket.
