New Season!

Spring is here, I love this time of year! The blue bonnets (texas state flower) are in full bloom everywhere and they have become one of my favorite flowers. Things have been busy in the Lewis household lately! We were fortunate to have my cousin Leigh and her boyfriend Dean come and visit us from L.A.
On the MetroRail headed home after a long day at SXSW and a delicious dinner at Carmelo's!
 Leigh has been visiting us regularly for several years now and we always enjoy her company, she's so much fun! Her and Dean picked the perfect time to come visit Austin because South By South West (SXSW) was in full swing! Leigh is a photography contributor to an independent magazine based out of L.A. called Yoo-N-LA Magazine. She was given a press pass for the entire SXSW which basically allowed her to go any and everywhere!!! Needless to say, she got up close and personal with some of the hottest upcoming bands and artists in the music industry. She got some great photos of the trip and they are posted on her photography website at leighgaston.com under the blog tab at the top of the page. Leigh also took some belly/ family portraits for us and I cannot wait to share them with you all once I get them!!!



We trecked all over downtown Austin trying to take in as much of SXSW as we could. We saw a lot, ate great food and overall it was just an A-W-E-S-O-M-E experience! I cannot wait for next year!! We enjoyed Leigh and Dean's company so much, it was sad to see them go. But we look forward to our next visit together, we've promised to make it out to L.A. by next summer!!



The nursery is slowly but steadily coming together...not sure if we'll make our deadline of April 1st but we'll see....


















Nelson did such a great job painting :)


Gesabelle was trying to get into sissy's room the entire time we painted!


Crib is finally assembled!!!

My mom is coming out for a visit the second week in April and I am hoping she can help us with the finishing touches! No matter what we've got to get this nursery wrapped up...I've got 10 weeks and counting left until our baby girl is here!!!!!

And lastly, we celebrated Nelson's 27th birthday this past Saturday! I took him to one of his favorite restaurants, Phil's Icehouse and we enjoyed a great late night laugh at Cap City Comedy Club! All in all it was a great day to celebrate his birth...I just cannot imagine my life without him in it :)
His birthday gift...a Sony camcorder and camera to capture memories of our family :)
We hope all is well with all our family and friends. You all are in our prayers daily! We love and miss you more than words could express! 

Love,
 The Lewis's
