Trey's 1st Day of School & 3 month check up




Today Trey had his 3 month check up with the doctor and then went to his 1st day of school at Central Baptist Bearden. He had a wonderful check up and is developing well. Based upon his skills and interactions, he is developing as if he was 5 months old. We are so proud of him and have so much fun with our little man. After his appointment we took him the dreaded 1st day of school. I was hoping I was not going to cry but that was wishful thinking. I started to tear up in the room but luckily made it outside. David then started trying to talk to me about what all I had to do at work and what my schedule looked like. I told him to quit taking my mind off of Trey and do just let me cry for a minute. Needless to say I did quit crying but still felt like an awful parent. David went and picked Trey up that day. I absoultely could not wait to find out how he did and was happy to hear things went well!

Celebrating 2 years where it all started!







David and I decided to celebrate our 2 year wedding anniversary a few days early this year by staying at Riverstone Resort in Pigeon Forge to celebrate our anniversary. For those of you who may not know or just forgot, Riverstone is where we held our wedding reception 2 years ago. We had a wonderful celebration and many fond memories so why not come back to where it started. This time around was a lot more low key but just as much fun. We were able to bring Trey with us and just chill out. This was much needed after a long 2 weeks of recruitment. Trey was able to hang out in the lazy river with his daddy and swim in the indoor pool. Nana came up and had dinner with us one night and then Nana and Papaw kept Trey at the condo while David and I went to eat at the famous Best Italian in Gatlinburg. We had an amazing time and highly recommend this place to those wanting to get away and enjoy a life of luxury. Enjoy the pictures of Trey as we had tons of fun taking them of our little guy!

Yes we are still alive and blogging!


So it has been over a month since I have posted anything on our blog. I hate being so behind but life has been crazy and I have just not had the time to post. I promise I will catch up on everything as I have tons of pictures to post (I am going to have to back track on my dates and events). The main thing going on in our life right now is I have headed back to work and have been extremely busy. The main thing I can say about going back to work is... I MISS TREY like crazy!! I never thought I would feel like this but when I am away he just grows like a weed. When he smiles at me, my heart just melts and I begin to tear up. Motherhood changes you so much. I totally understand why women need drugs because I am a trainwreck! HAHA. I promise to get back up to speed on my blogging! Stay tuned. I have tons of great pics.

From Texas to Tennessee.. Here come The Stein's











My sister Laura was originally planning on coming to Tennessee from Allen, TX right after Trey was born but they had to postpone the trip until August. David and I were SO excited for Laura, Roddy and the kids to get here that we were counting down the days. They rented a cabin in Wears Valley (in between Townsend and Pigeon Forge)and we were able to visit with them and catch up on what has been way to long since we have seen them. They went tubing in Townsend and white water rafting in North Carolina. We were fortunate in being able to go eat at Pancake Pantry, on a college visit with Meredith to Carson Newman, and eat at lots of great places in Sevierville and Pigeon Forge. We were extremely sad to see them leave and hope one day they will live close to us in Tennessee.

Bathtime is so much fun... all the time!





Trey LOVES LOVES LOVES taking a bath. This is one of the most enjoyable times of the day. When he was around 1 month old we learned that giving him a bath every night was very soothing for him and helps him calm down before bedtime. These pictures are from several different times he has had a bath. Enjoy!
