TREY has a BIG DAY!! Our 36 week doctor appt.

David and I went to the doctor for my 36 week appointment at 10:15 a.m. on April 29th. We knew this was going to be BIG appointment as they were going to do an ultrasound to check and see Trey's posistion as well as how much we anticipate he is weighing. We are happy to report Trey is doing great! He is already head down and in place. The doctors anticipate he is weighing 6 lbs, 2 oz. and is a pretty active little guy. We heard his heart beat which is in the 130s and we even had the chance to see him in 3D. David asked the tech to try and get a picture of his nose. Once he heard that, Trey quickly threw his hand up covering his face somewhat. Hopefully everyone can get some idea of what he looks like. Based on the pictures he seems to have chubby cheeks, thick lips, and no hair (except for a small patch). The doctor anticipates he will weigh at least in the high 7 lbs. or 8 lbs!! Our next visit is May 6th so stay tuned for more updates. We are getting extrememly excited and even happier Trey is healthy!! Thanks to everyone who has and continues to pray for our family!!

Meeting new people!

Recently Trey has had the opportunity to meet some very important people! We recently traveled to Murfreesboro to check on the house after the tornadoes hit. While in town, we were able to go meet Hudson Grant Victory born in March to our friends Marcus and Jackie Victory. Hudson and Trey will hopefully get to play together in the very near future. We then headed over to campus to cheer on the Blue Raiders in the annual Blue and White game! Then at work we kicked off our annual Greek Week with a Meet 'n Greet with new UT Head Football coach, Lane Kiffin. You can see the pictures of Trey and I with Jackie and Hudson and Coach Kiffin and Trey and I. You will notice I am sporting the blue and orange in both pictures!

Happy Easter!

For Easter Sunday, David and I attended Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church where we have been visiting recently for church service. The service was great and Bruce Pearl, Head Basketball coach for the UT Men's basketball team, was sitting about 3 rows in front of us. After church David and I headed to Sevierville for Easter lunch with his parents and family! As always we ate way too much and enjoyed a beautiful day. David and I just can't wait to be able to dye Easter Eggs and make an Easter basket for Trey next year!!

Look what we learned in Delivery class

On Saturday, April 11th David and I attended a special delievery class at Baptist West Hospital to learn the ins and out of labor and delivery, caring for the baby, everything postpartum, etc. It was definitely eye opening as we were able to see a real life birth! This definitely made everything real for us. We also were able to hear from a pediatrician and learn how to change a diaper and swaddle the baby. I hope you enjpy watching David practicing swaddling Ted E. Bear!!

UT Baby Shower

On Wednesday, April 8th the Division of Student Affairs and Dean of Students threw a baby shower for the 4, yes that's right- the 4 women in the division who are all expecting. Three of us are due in May and the other in July!! Funny thing is, all of them are expecting little girls except for me!! Needless to say Trey is going to have lots of little girlfriends and play dates as well as babysitters with all the sorority women!! Check out the pictures with us at the shower!! We are definitely in Volunteer country over here!!

Truly Blessed with wonderful students!

On Saturday, April 4th, the sorority women held a shower for me in the AOII suite!! I could not have asked for better weather nor could I have asked for such a wonderful shower!! I can't wait to see all the pictures the women took as I only have a few. The past Panhellenic Presidnet Kristina, the current Panhellenic President Hayley, and the Panhellenic graduate assistant Dena were the hostesses of the shower and invited exec members, advisors, and chapter presidents. Trey's Memommy and Nana Honey were also in attendance (mom had eye surgery 2 days earlier)! We had wonderful food prepared by the ladies, opened presents, and played an interesting game with baby food! I am going to have make sure I am selective with Trey's baby food. Let's just say that broc, carrots and cheese are not the most tasty!! Trey received his first UT outfit that he will wear during orange and white night of recruitment and received many nice gifts from so many generous people!! He also received an cute little AOII panda and "an AOII loves me" onesie from the ladies of AOII. I am most grateful for everyone's encouragement and enthusiasm centered around Trey's entrance into the world!! We are going to have lots of babysitters to give him lots of attention and love!
