"Our HGTV Transformation"

Okay, so we weren't really on HGTV, but we should have been. Thanks to the awesome talent of Katherine Jones, Interior Designer and friend, we now have the wonderful family room we wanted. The before picture is from when we bought the house and the after is today.

The Big Chill 2010

We had fun playing in the snow yesterday after preschool! Today after school is a different story - hardly any left!

Will at 4 Months

Will got an A+ at his 4-month well check. Here are his stats:

Weight: 15 lbs, 12 oz
Height: 26"
Head Circumference: 42.2
Eye Color: Dr. Dan thinks they'll likely be hazel (like Mommy), but brown is still a possibility....

Will is turning over from his back to his tummy already (!) and has been sleeping on his tummy for the past week. He is putting his feet in his mouth now and always has a finger or a fist in his mouth. He's razzing, laughing and "talking". Rice cereal has been a welcome addition to his mealtimes - he had the "eating from a spoon" thing figured out by the 2nd feeding. He's slept through the night a handful of times over the past few weeks. Woohoo!

The first cereal feeding (before things got messy):

Not so sure about this:

Grizzly McCripple...

....is Mark's new nickname at work. Three weeks ago, he injured his back while playing tennis. He thought he was Andy Roddick. Like Andy, Mark is an Austinite, has a penchant for Lacoste shirts, and is married to an Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover model, but that's where the similarities end. But seriously, I've seen him through a few orthopedic surgeries and quite a few sports injuries over the years, and this one was BAD. He spent the day after the injury in the ER on morphine and valium (after our sweet neighbor Matt practically carried him to the car). He was bedridden for 5 days. The injury was muscular (because he has degererative discs in his lower back, the muscles absorbed the impact) and he starts physical therapy next week. He didn't go in to the office for 2 weeks and also didn't shave for over 2 weeks!

So, I present to you GRIZZLY McCRIPPLE:
