Welcome to the "Crib"


Welcome to Scout's "crib." Its alllllllllllmost complete.

There are a few more items we need to find for the walls, but I think we are about 90% done....and Luke can finally put the drill and laser level away!

People have asked what our "theme" is for the nursery. I can honestly tell you I have no idea. Luke's only request was no princess "stuff!" I had to agree.

Grandma Hogue designed the bugs/flowers on the window shade and Grandma Baer is cross stitching a Holly Hobby birth announcement for above the door. We know it will all come together once we get our act together and completely finish the room....and hopefully Scout will love her pink room as much as Luke and I have enjoyed working on it.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
