Mommy Weekend!


Its been a Mommy and Bree weekend and I've completely enjoyed it! Of course, I've missed Justin, who's been out wheeling with the boys all weekend but after being gone to Minneapolis Wednesday - Friday, I was ready for some much needed mommy/daughter time. My Minneapolis trip was only supposed to be overnight, but due to all the bad weather Dallas got Wednesday night, DFW airport was closed Thursday and I couldn't get home. Poor Justin too ... I go out of town and all heck breaks loose while he's home alone with her. We were texting back and forth Wednesday night while he and Bree were hiding in the closet with no power and the tornado sirens wailing. It was not a pleasent experience for either of them. She was a trooper though and as soon as it was over, settled down with Daddy for a bottle and some snuggle time.

I meanwhile, got up at 4:30 am Friday morning to see if I could catch an earlier flight home and ended up sitting in the airport all day after almost making it on to two flights, only to be denied at the very last second when the passengers showed up with literally seconds to spare. I kid you not, the gate agent was counting down 30 seconds till he gave me a seat only to have them show up with 10 seconds left on both occasions! So, I ended up on the 2:00 flight home, landed at 4:30 and have been hanging out with Brianna ever since I got home. Many thanks to Jen and Collin for picking her up for me since I had rush hour traffic to deal with as well!

Brianna's 4 month pictures came in a few days early so we made a special trip down to Target to pick them up. Here's the various poses that I chose, including the arrangement I had made for Justin for Father's Day.
This weekend was also her first time to go to church and we met up with April, Jeff and Presley. She did so good in the nursery and was sitting up in a bumbo seat when I picked her up, just looking around and taking it all in. They said she was a darling and to bring her back any time! I'm sure they tell all the parents that though. Here's a few pictures from this morning ...

April, Presley, Brianna and I

Going to church must have worn her out!
I think that's it for now ...
Love you all,
Lucretia

We had such a great time meeting you at church and then going to lunch afterwards! I think we should make that a habit! Let me just say again...you look fantastic!

Justin is going to love his Father's Day pictures of his girls! They are GREAT!

Absolutely great pictures!! They will make a great fathers day gift for Justin!! Sorry you were delayed for so long at the airport, that has to be so frustrating when you are on a mission to get home!
