The McDermott's: February 2011

Monday, February 28, 2011. Each year the McDermott girls take a trip to Dallas for some fabulous food, shopping (and a little lighting on the side at the Dallas Market Center) but since Deacon was going to be joining us, our girls trip turned into a girls plus Deacon then it became a girls trip (with Deacon) with James and Thomas meeting us half way through! Since they came along we ended up going on a tour of the Dallas Cowboy's Football Stadium two weeks before the Super Bowl took place there. Deacon w...

Tuesday, January 18, 2011. It seems like a lifetime ago but I realized today that I haven't posted about Deacon's first Christmas! I was inspired by one of our friends last year who made homemade eggnog and tried a recipe out myself. What isn't to love about eggs, milk, and heavy whipping cream. LOTS of heavy whipping cream. with a little nutmeg on top? Deacon sat up to the table on Christmas Eve like such a big boy and didn't even make a fuss when the Reindeer antlers would poke him in the face! Now tha...

Thursday, August 26, 2010. And the Days Go By. How is it already the end of August? My summer has been a blur with adjusting to life as a mom and figuring out this sweet little gift from heaven! I have had great intentions of blogging (3 weeks ago, 2 weeks ago, last week.) but most days I am just grateful I showered! Then we took off the next day, with Deacon in tow, to the Zermatt Resort in Midway to spend the weekend (as a kind-of combined birthday get-away! It was so cute! Deacon was such a good boy a...

Sunday, April 17, 2011. Baby, Look at Us! The 8th Annual Marathon/ Half Marathon was on Saturday and James had decided that since running a marathon was on his bucket list he would run this one. I do not have running a marathon on my bucket list but thought it would be fun to run the half. just to see what it was like. Plus, my sister Christina (who is marathon running expert) and Bree were running it too so why not? I am so proud of James for finishing the grueling. She is so sweet and I appreciate her ...

Monday, July 19, 2010. Nothing but Blue Skies. Since our lives now revolve around this sweet little bundle of joy I thought I would post a few of the 99 pictures I just imported into iPhoto. It's a good thing everything is digital these days. could you imagine what it would cost to have 99 pictures developed every week at the photo lab? And where would we put them all? Another reason why I am so thrilled to be living in these times! Oh, he makes us laugh! He was so happy. didn't even cry! One of these da...

Wednesday, July 13, 2011. Thomas, Caroline and Joe decided it would be fun to run in the annual Spartan Race up at Soldier Hollow! It is an 8- mile run with a series of obstacles and tests throughout it. We thought it would be fun to do next year with all of us. maybe in matching outfits (. how cute is that? But after watching them I may be rethinking that decision! They were all so excited (and smiling) as they ran past us when the race began! Then the real test began! They ran down these stairs. Thomas...

Thursday, May 27, 2010. Past My Due Date and I'll Cry If I Want To! Went to my Dr this morning and found out that I am no more dilated or effaced since last Friday when I saw her last. I have gained 2 more pounds though! I am officially PAST my due date and she said she was surprised I hadn't gone into labor since there were two girls she also saw last Friday who were dilated and effaced as much as I was that have both had their babies! Not this girl though! He still thinks he has the room to move around...

Thursday, June 30, 2011. Days in Sunny June. What a fun-filled month! It started with Deacon's birthday on June 2nd. Deacon ate Mickey Shaped pancakes (with a side of blueberries) for breakfast. So that he would have a full tummy for the zoo! Anna, James and Aunt Kara brought Deacon his favorite thing. Balloons! Or "Ba" as Deacon calls them! Then it was off to the Zoo with his cousins Anna, James and Londyn. And his Aunt Kara, Auntie M, Aunt Bree and Nana. And hanging out with T-Rex. Holly (how darling i...
