Nathan Day 3

Not many pictures today.  We had a pretty quiet day and rested.  Nathan and I put on our game day gear to watch the first of many Aggie games together.  It was a good time, especially since we won.  Here are a couple of pics

Nathan Day 2

We had another good day with Nathan today.  Breastfeeding is coming along nicely, and we had lots of visitors.  Big sister Hannah also got in on the action.  Below are some more pictures of our little guy

Nathan Scott Hubley

It's a boy!  Nathan Scott Hubley was born at 1:46 pm.  He weighed 7 lbs 0 oz and was 19.5 inches long.  Mom, baby, and big sister Hannah are doing well.  Below are a couple of pics.  More to come soon

 

Snow Day

We are finally thawing out from probably the coldest weather we’ll see all year.  The mercury finally got above freezing today for the first time since Monday including several nights with lows in the single digits.  During that time we had two doses of snow that kept us homebound for most of the week.  We finally decided to get out and play in the snow on Friday afternoon.  Below are some pictures.

Hannah had a rough time at first after an initial faceplant.

She mainly just liked to walk around in it.  Her new Christmas coat came in handy.

Snow day classic – snow angel in the front yard.

She loved making tracks in the snow.

Hannah and Mom.  She was not ready to go inside yet!

Snow bunny

She also thought it was funny when I threw the snow at her.

That night before bed, she was ready for another round.  Dad’s hat and gloves should work fine, right?  I’m not sure why she needed the backpack.

2011 Stock Show and Rodeo

Since we have lived here, we are embarrassed to say that we have never been to the famous Stock Show and Rodeo. My parents were in town last weekend, along with cousin Sam, so we decided it was the perfect time to go.

Check out our cute little Cowgirl and Cowboy! 

Mom brought these overalls for Hannah. I thought they were so cute and very fitting for the occasion. She loved looking at all the little animals.

Nan and Pop with their grandkids (we couldn’t get Sam to look at the camera).

It was all lots of fun but the kids liked the pony rides and petting zoo the best. Dad is now convinced that it’s time to get a horse for the grandbabies. He’s starting them even earlier than he started us!

Hannah LOVED riding the horse. Unfortunately, she pitched a HUGE fit when the ride was over…it was not pretty.

Thanks Nan, Pop, and Sam for coming to visit. We had a great time!

Cotton Bowl

We got tickets to the Cotton Bowl for Christmas so we could watch our beloved Aggies play the LSU tigers.  It was supposed to be a good game but kind of got away from us after our senior linebacker got hurt early on.  LSU played a great game, and they were definitely the better team.  We ended up running out of time when the score was 41-24.  We had a great time in spite of losing.  Below are some pictures.

Headed up to the stadium.

We arrived just in time to watch the band march in.

Here is the view from our seats.  Not bad!!

Here was the “other” view from our seats.  Not as good

Thanks again Nana and Pappy for the tickets.  We had a great time!

Hubley Baby #2 Baby Shower

"A friend loves at all times..." Proverbs 17:17
Two of my sweet friends here in town gave me the best baby shower a couple of weeks ago...
Aren’t they cute?!?

  

This is the delicious lemon cake that Elyse made.

They made the cutest party favors consisting of tea bags with prayers for our family.

Candy Gram that Mama Jo made.  It was a hit!

Mama Jo and Me

These girls guessed I am having a boy

and these girls guessed I am having a girl

Hannah even got a gift

She had the most fun playing in the wrapping paper

I'm always overwhelmed with people's love and generosity for our little family. Not only do these friends offer to help when a new little one comes along, but anytime we need anything! Each one of you have blessed my life and I'm so grateful the Lord thought it necessary for our paths to cross. When we moved to Fort Worth I had no idea the kind of love that would be poured out to us by our community and church family.
Thank you all for helping us celebrate our new baby!
