3 month update

Seagos are back!  Took a little break from the bloggin' world and now here is an overview of the last 3 months.  As you'll see, we have been busy, as I know everyone has.  Ellie is such a joy and a huge blessing to us!  She sleeps 11 hours a night and laughs all day long, especially at her Daddy.  I am very excited for summer to be here!  No getting dressed for us many days to come!!  Just hanging out!  Well, except for our little surprise trip tomorrow to DISNEY!!!  The kids do not know and we are totally surprising them!!  Pictures to come, I promise.  

Some of you may have already seen these pics if you are one FB, but for the ones who are not....here you go~

Ellie's Sip 'N See

My sweet friends gave Ellie a sip 'n see, here at my house.  Everything was perfect, from the precious decorations by my friend Suzanne to the wonderful food, to the most precious paintings of my girls in tutus!, to all the people who came!  It was such a special day!!!

Easter 2009

my 3 gifts from God

We got the treat of meeting Chris Tomlin in Memphis at his concert.  My mom came and kept the kids while we went made a road trip with some friends.  We had a blast!

Mary Grace & cousin Anna Claire had portraits made by Chris Grillis.  I wanted her portrait made before the "hair cut"!  Here is a candid shot of them before the session started.

Wanted you to see the length of Grace's hair.......

The new "do"

Spring time means BASEBALL in our house!  Bryant has been playing with the same kids and coach for 3 years.  2 games/per week, plus a practice.  He has also continued swim team....busy, busy spring, but oh so fun to watch my little man!  He always gives me a thumbs up once on base!  I love it!

Dance Recital

It was raining on Sunday, so she grabbed her boots to wear until we got to the recital.  

The most precious pic I've ever seen.....my man & his little princess!!!

Grace has a way with the men in her life!!!

So that's a VERY quick overview of the last few months of the Seago clan.  We feel so blessed to have these precious babies who are healthy & happy!  God is just so good to us!!  We have loved sitting on our porch swinging everyday, watching the sun set!!  One thing for sure....God is teaching me to treasure the little things in life!  Let the petty things go......smile more, laugh often, my laundry can wait (which is huge for me OCD).  

Bryant's birthday weekend

Bryant turned 6!   I can't believe he is 6!  Where did the time go?  It seems like yesterday he was born in Galveston and we were heading to Pray 'n Play with my precious friends.  I am so proud of the boy he is.....such a HUGE heart, and a sweet spirit, at the same time ALL BOY!  He is the best big brother to the girls.....God knew exactly what He was doing when he gave us Bryant first. He always puts Mary Grace's seat belt on in the car and gives Ellie her pacifer when she cries.  He is a our child that loves a hug and tells us constantly that he loves us.  He adores his father and tells him so all the time!  He worries about his mother and always makes sure she is alright. 

How blessed we are to have Bryant Seago as our son!  What a catch he will be to a young woman one day.......

We had a weekend FULL of events!  Pretty crazy with a newborn in the house, but thanks to my parents for helping with Ellie, we were able to pull it off and give him his special time ..... He requested a Movie Night with boys only, his cousins to spend the night, and go bowling the next day (his actual birthday). So here are the pics from the weekend.....

Ellie's Birth

Nanney's 80th Birthday

Happy 80th  Birthday Nanney!!!  We love you lots!

We were so blessed to celebrate my Nanney's 80th birthday with her!  I am honored to have her in my life and for my children to know and love her!  We all came in town and stayed the weekend with her a few weekends ago.  We went to dinner and then surprised her with a party afterwards at her dear friends' home.  She was shocked.  We put a scrapbook together for her with pictures from the past/present and we all wrote notes to her telling her how much she means to us.  The family joined her at church on Sunday and to her surprise, we had ordered the flowers for the sanctuary in her honor.  At the end of service, the pastor had her stand and the congregation sang Happy Birthday to her!  It was such a special time!

                               Bryant was showing Nanney what he drew for her scrapbook.
