We ate dinner tonight at Grant's Kitchen on Lakeland and Sam spotted some ducks in the parking lot. We saved some of our bread from dinner and went out to the lake behind the restaurant when we finished eating to see if we could find any ducks to feed. Sam sure did enjoy looking and waving at all of them and he even got to feed a few ducklings. They were so cute!
Unfortunately, the Rebels played hard but couldn't pull off a win Thursday or Friday night. The losses didn't get Sam down though, he just enjoyed cheering and watching some good SEC baseball.
After all of the excitement on Friday night, Sam decided to take a really good nap on Saturday afternoon to rest up before we headed back to the stadium that night for the last game of the series.
This has been the first year that we have had Rebel Club seats and Sam and I have both really enjoyed the convenience of all of the delicious meals and snacks. We ate dinner up in the Rebel club that night and had some pretty good hot dogs. My favorite was when I was cutting up Sam's hot dog and he started singing "Mama hot dog, Mama hot dog, Mama hot dog, Mama hot dog." It had a pretty catchy tune and he sang it quite a few times during the rest of the trip. What mama wouldn't love a song written about her? ;) We cheered hard and were able to pull our Rebels to victory Saturday night. As always, we enjoyed our baseball weekend in Oxford and are already looking forward to the games next season.
Lili, Sam and I took Sarah to dinner tonight at Table 100 for her birthday. You would never know by Sam's bright eyes and big smile that he had spent most of the day shopping with three women at the Canton Flea Market. He is such a good sport!
Almost every night, without fail, we ask Sam if he is ready to go to bed and he always replies, "No, Dada - watch base....ball." Like father, like son.
In celebration of Mother's Day tomorrow, my two sweet boys treated me to lunch at Julep. We had some delicious food and Sam loved sitting like a big boy in the booth next to Adam. 
After we left Highland Village, Adam couldn't resist stopping at the North Jackson baseball fields on Lakeland and showing Sam around. Every time we pass the fields Sam always points and talks about the boys playing ball. Sam loved watching a few minutes of the games and even had his picture made by a sign with his daddy's name on it from when he was 11 years old and his team won the regional AAU tournament. Adam has so many wonderful memories out at those fields and I know it meant a lot to him to be able to go back and take his own son to his old "stomping grounds."
Sam and I went to Apple Annie's this morning to buy a gift and happened to stumble upon this cute little frog watch. He loved it and I just couldn't resist - it was perfect for him!
We went to the doctor a few weeks ago and took our little man with us.
We got this sweet little snapshot while we were there and were so thankful to hear a precious, strong heartbeat. I'm pretty sure nothing in the world beats that sound..whether it's your first or fifth baby.
Sam has been very interested in my belly lately and keeps saying he wants the baby to get out. I've been trying to explain to him that the baby has to live in my stomach for a while so it can grow and get big enough to come play. He loves it when we see other babies so I know he is going to be a wonderful big brother. I can't wait to see my two babies together in a few months. We ask for your prayers for a healthy baby and a healthy pregnancy and look forward to finding out if Baby Milner is a boy or girl the end of June - so stay tuned!
