Every time we go to HEB and this boy sees a watermelon, he goes crazy!
For real. I can't NOT buy one.
And when we get home he yells yells at me to start cutting it!

Watermelon is way more fun to eat when you take extra big bites...

Payne Party of 6!!!

So, for the longest time I'd refer to my family as, "our little family".
After saying this recently I've realized that our family isn't so little anymore! Yep, we're adding another baby Payne to mix! Soon, we'll be a family of 6! Plus one enormous dog. ;)
When I look back on all we've accomplished as a family I can't help but feel overwhelmingly grateful.
Grateful for these 3 crazy, rambunctious kiddos.
Grateful for a home.
Grateful for a job.
Grateful for so many blessings.

Although the thought of having 4 kids makes me feel nervous, I know it's meant to be! And that it'll be great! Crazy, but great! 
Here we go!
Due March 14th 2016!
