Tate Clayton Rein

Welcome Tate Clayton Rein!!! Born Tuesday, November 24, 2009. He weighed 7lbs. 13oz. Happy and healthy!!! We were able to bring him home after 24 hours which was a wonderful blessing since Mason and Lyla Grace both stayed in the NICU for a week.

No more training wheels!!

Mason is riding his bike with no training wheels!!! A little bribery goes a long way...Clay told him if he learned to ride his Auburn bike without training wheels then he could pick out a new "big boy" bike. It took him about 5 minutes and he was riding on his own!! We are so proud of him! Mason was also happy to pass down his Auburn bike to his cousin Eric...of course after Clay took him to get his new bike!

Tate's Baby Shower

So special to share the evening with my mom :)

My sweet friends (J. Stead, J. Maynard & S. Wright) hosted a baby shower for me to celebrate baby Tate. It was a great night catching up with friends and sharing the excitement of God's new blessing to our family!

Halloween

Halloween night we went to the Armstrong's for a party and trick-or-treating. It was so fun to watch the kids enjoy the night together :) Since Lyla Grace was sick last year she didn't really get to enjoy Halloween so this was her 1st year experiencing going up to the door...she was SOOOO excited to get candy and loved eating it before she put it in the bag :) It was even more special because Nanna was here to share it with us!! (Daddy was at the Auburn vs. Ole Miss game)

Pumpkin Patch

Lyla Grace and I spent the day at the Pumpkin Patch while Clay took Mason to the Auburn vs. Kentucky game. The weather was perfect (sunny and 70) especially for a big pregnant girl :) We had a great time with friends and picking out pumpkins!

Is that Ben Tate???

Mason is in L-O-V-E with Auburn football!!! He wears his jersey to bed every night. He loves watching the game on Saturdays and wants to watch the taped game all throughout the week. Clay is thrilled to have a "buddy" who loves Auburn football as much as he does!!!

Sweet Little Momma

Lyla Grace is obsessed with her babies. She has 9 babies and has named each one of them. She reads to them, feeds them and each one has an assigned sippy cup! I am a little nervous about how she is going to treat Tate when he arrives. It is going to be hard for her to understand that he isn't her baby. So much excitement...
