Hello again & Miss Evie...

The Boyer Bunch is up and running again. Hopefully, it won't be six months until I do another post, but I'm not promising anything!! :) Wanted to include an updated pic of my sweet babies and to say I've missed you all. Upcoming posts: Brooks turned 4, Bennett's birth & first four months, my 10 year Anniversary, and much more. Stay tuned...

Our precious niece, Evie May, now has her very own blog!!! Please go check it out and welcome my sweet sister to the blogging world with a comment:

Prego Pics & a Painting

I'm finally adding some new prego pics for November & December. Hard to believe I'm 33 weeks and Bennett's arrival is just around the corner. This has been a great pregnancy, and I am so thankful.

November-Thanksgiving holiday

Christmas Eve, no belly shot in December

Not as much time on my hands with the second pregnancy to remember everything that you do with your first!!

Look at this beauty...a Christmas gift from my parents. Guess who painted it, the most talented gal I know, Jamie Leah!! I am so proud of it. It's hanging in our entry way and I look at it each time I pass through. She can paint anything and I can't wait to see the canvas's for Bennett's nursery. I'm going to do a post sometime with pics of all the paintings J's done for me. I remember telling her a long time ago that I'd love to have her art hanging throughout my home. If you are interested in having some custom artwork done, please let me know and I'll pass along her info.

Big Announcement

We have decided on a name for our sweet, baby boy...

BENNETT WILLIAM

Bennett means, "little blessed one", and we feel just that about him. A true blessing from above whom we cannot wait to meet, hold, smell, give kisses and the list could go on and on.

William means, "resolute guardian". Both of my grandfathers are named William. I have included a picture of George William, my Papa, and his first great grandson, Brooks. He is very sick right now and most likely will be watching down from heaven when Bennett is born. My heart aches at the thought, because Papa and Brooks have the sweetest relationship and I wish Bennett could have the same. One day they WILL!! My grandaddy, William Alfred, passed away when I was a freshman in high school. I know that he would love my boys to pieces and would be tickled to have one of them named after him.

We chose another "B" name because Bennett needed to have the same initials as his daddy, his brother, and his Pop'O(Bob).

On March 1st at 7:45am, we will become a family of four. I am now in full baby mode. The nursery is set up and in the process of being decorated. I'm having a lady make his bedding, meeting with a painter this week, and Jamie is working on some artwork for his room. I'm panicking a little about not having everything ready before he gets here. Eekkk...

My new FAVORITE girl...

September 10 at 4:50pm my niece, Evelyn(Evie) May made her grand entrance. She weighed 8lbs 14 oz. Congratulations Aunt T & Uncle D...we are so happy for you!!

My favorite pic of T & Evie
Such a blessing

Brooks is proud of his new cousin

Grandparents of two..soon to be three!! :)

Fast forward 6 weeks:

Brooks & I just got back from a visit with this precious baby girl. I am in love!! She loves to cuddle and this proud aunt did not want to put her down. Brooks was very interested in E, wanted to hold her, push her in the swing, etc. My sister is such a great mommy and it is so neat to watch her start the journey into motherhood. There is just no better job in the world. I am so happy for her!!

We can't wait to see them again for Thanksgiving.

Loving her swing

Sweet cousins

Attempt at a grandparent photo and Miss E was not having it!!

Beautiful new mommy and baby girl

Look at these precious fall tights...

Our 100th post & we're thinking blue...

Today, I am adding our 100th post and couldn't think of a better topic than our precious second child!! We found out a few weeks ago...IT'S A BOY. Bryan and I had the sonogram tech seal our news in an envelope to keep secret until that night. We planned to go to dinner and open as a family. It was a very long day waiting for B to get home from work, and all I could do not to open it. We headed to Cheesecake Factory, placed our order, and I tore open the envelope. Brooks said all along that the baby was a girl, and had me somewhat convinced. The weekend before our sonogram, Bryan was out of town and I really started feeling boy. Our sweet little one is healthy and quite active. Both the sonogram tech and doctor commented on how much he was moving. It is just such an amazing/emotional feeling to watch your child wiggling around inside of you. Such an abundant blessing from above!!!

He's definitely a boy

Proud, proud big brother

5 months

3 months-notice the motion bands I'm sporting..they are my constant companion!! So fashionable...

Now, we are starting to throw around a few names, pick out bedding, think about the nursery, and prepare for his spring arrival!! Hard to believe I'll be toting around two little guys in a few months.

Exciting news...

Brooks is going to be a big brother!! We are thrilled and can't wait for the arrival of this precious little one. I am 10 1/2 weeks and my due date is March 4th. This pregnancy is going really well so far...NO MIGRAINES & nausea. What a blessing it has been because I was sooo sick with Brooks. I have been very tired, and it's taking every bit of energy I do have to make it through the day. Pregnancy with a little one at home is a whole different ball game. Lots of napping while B is asleep..looking forward to the energy the 2nd trimester brings. We had a doctor's apt today and hearing the heartbeat just amazes me. What an awesome God we serve to bless Bryan & I with another baby!! I am just so thankful that He is trusting us with the life of this child. My prayer is for a healthy and safe pregnancy, delivery, and new little one!!

Big smile

We think he's going to make a GRREAT big brother!!

Waiting on his next surprise...


A lollipop is much more exciting...

Yummy!! If you'll notice the lollipop had to match his new, cute t-shirt... :)

Daffodil fields

ENOUGH of that snake post...moving on to much happier topics. We are still settling in to the new place and scratching things off the to-do list. Summer is finally here and Houston is HOT!! So, this post is taking me back to the glorious days of spring. Before leaving East Texas, I took Brooks to the daffodil fields. It was the last day they were open & most of the flowers had lost blooms, but still a fun adventure. Enjoy...

I thought this quote was beautiful
I love flowers of all kinds, one of God's most beautiful creations.

And here's my spunky little guy who loved running through the fields of flowers

Here he's starting to become frustrated with my picture taking

Such a cutie pie

These past few months have flown by, I truly can't believe summer is here. We were traveling most of the weekends in May, and now getting ready for a trip to the beach. Hilton Head here we come!! I have oodles to post about, my goal is to attempt one a week.
