We have finally nailed down a name for our boy! His name will be Hudson Eli Miley. We have only a few weeks left until we welcome him into the world! Hannah & Hudson are both still doing well! Hannah is pretty uncomfortable but health is all good!
This past week I spent most of my time preparing for the Chick-fil-A annual Seminar - this year in Long Beach, CA. The truck deadline was Thursday evening so I made the deadline and took Friday off to celebrate. I spent Friday working on 2 shelves for our boy's room.
Hannah played with Raegan all day Friday before leaving for the weekend on a girl's trip to the Lake (not our Lake). Hannah said the house they stayed in was really nice. Hannah relaxed with her old college roommates. They didn't take any pictures!
So Raegan and I had kind of a Daddy/Daughter weekend. She was so good and so much fun! Plus it was an incredible weekend that felt like Spring!
The rest of this blog post is pretty much all from my perspective because Hannah was out of town for the weekend. But I'm sure she could blog about how much fun her Lake trip was.
Saturday morning was the neighborhood playground opening party. You've seen posts where Raegan loved playing on the playground. Well lately she has just wanted to play around the playground but not get on it. She enjoyed mingling a little but mostly just staying away from the playground and playing with things like rocks.

After the playground party, Raegan and I drove to Cordele, GA to see my Grandmother (Granny), Nana & Bailey. Raegan was excited to see all 3 of them. Raegan enjoyed exploring Granny's house, eating her food and I think mostly running in her yard. Granny's yard is huge and Raegan doesn't usually just get to run wide-open like that. It was a beautiful day and I enjoyed visiting with my Mom & Granny too. Below is a slideshow of some of the visit at Granny's house:
So then we drove home. Sunday morning either Raegan didn't wake up until 10am or she woke-up at her normal 7:45am and I was sleeping so hard I didn't know it... so she went back to sleep. Regardless, we missed church because we slept too long. But it was another beautiful day. So we went back down to the playground. She finally got back on it again! Maybe since we were the only ones down there. But she still wouldn't get back on the big slide. Here is a slideshow of pictures of that:
Then after playing on the playground, it occured to me that I had never taken Raegan onto the tennis courts. I need to get her used to tennis! She enjoyed playing on the courts. She has become very silly lately. And until the tennis courts, she has seemed to be scared of stickers of all things. But on the tennis court she decided to use a sticker to be silly. You'll see in the pictures (another slideshow):

Finally, I have to show you what I worked on during the weekend while Raegan was asleep. It may not look like much work but it really was! I haven't built anything since Raegan was born. So this was fun to use all my tools and some creativity again! And to do something custom for my son, Hudson!
I started with this piece of wood...
And using a Table Saw, Jig Saw, Miter Saw, Brad Nailer, Router, Paint Brush (with Stain & poly), I made this (I know I could have bought something similar for maybe cheaper and less effort):
Have a good week!

Raegan is growing up so fast! It looks like the two of you had a lot of fun over the weekend, and I am sure Hannah did too. See you in a couple of weeks!
