It's over...almost.



Baseball season. Just the game tonight and one tomorrow afternoon. Then the 2013 season will be history. This one was memorable - for the team and for the family. I won't even mention a single stat for the team. Let's just say, they've had better years. As for the family, we crammed a lot in. Since spring training:
    We announced that we were pregnant. Yay!
    Maddan left her beloved day care (we love you Miss. Bonn)
    I left Disney after 20 years. I started when I was nine.  ;)
    Maddan, Maverrick and I packed up and moved to Florida to be with Daddy, leaving all our family behind. :(
    Daddy had to get used to Maddan, Maverick and (a moody, pregnant) me. No easy task!
    I turned 40, woohoo!!
    We welcomed our precious Malone into the family. She has made it complete.
So, this season is definitely one for the books, at least for the Sewell family. It will be nice to have Hubby working 'normal' hours. But, I have to admit, I'm going to miss watching the games. Over the years I have learned to respect and love the game. Looking forward to 2014!

Happy Fall Y'all!



So, today is the first day of Autumn. Growing up in Southern California, I know, is not like growing up in a place with four distinct seasons. But, I will argue that leaves changed colors on a few trees in the neighborhood and it did get cool enough to wear scarves and gloves...a few times. But now being in south Florida, I'm having a hard time getting excited about the change in seasons. I haven't paid too much attention to the pumpkin recipes, cute sweater and boot outfits and festive holiday decor that is now dominating Pinterest. It's hard to get in the spirit of things when it is 85 degrees and humid as heck. I'm fairly certain the weather isn't going to change too much, but I have been told that it will get cool enough here this winter to add a layer, maybe even something with sleeves!
Happy Fall Y'all

It's official...

...we are a party of four! On Wednesday, September 4th at 9:27 p.m., we welcomed daughter number two into our family. Although the plan was to have a c-section, we were not prepared for her to arrive twelve days before her due date and six days before the date we had scheduled to meet her. She, however, had other plans. Our sweet baby girl was ready to meet us. And that, come to find out, was a good thing. When she arrived she weighed in at 8 pounds, 11 ounces! How big would she have been if she waited on our timing?! Having two beautiful, healthy girls has been such a blessing...and an adjustment. We are still in the honeymoon phase so hubby has not quite adjusted to the new hours and Munchkin has yet to show an ounce of jealousy - yet. And, to be honest, I don't remember it being so hard to get out of bed in the morning after a handful of middle of the night feedings. But every day, every hour, every moment I thank God that we are the Sewell's, party of 4.
