Last Saturday, we celebrated Jase's second birthday. It was a simple celebration, held at Gra-Gra's house since our house is currently under construction. Rather than a huge event with all our friends and family, we opted for a small gathering with just Jase's grandparents and ...
Happy Second Birthday, Jase!
Today is my baby boy's SECOND BIRTHDAY! I cannot even. It seems like just this morning I was stuck on bed-rest, anxiously awaiting his arrival. And today, he is TWO. Stats: Height: 32 1/2 inches Weight: 22.2 pounds This boy of ours is such a hoot. He talks all the time and when we ...
Currently, Vol. 2
First things first, I want to apologize for the lack of posting last week. It was Book Fair week at school, which is always crazy. By the time I got home in the afternoons, I was beat. Done for. Finished. So we are starting our week off with a "Currently" post. Be sure to check back ...
Babies Wearing Glasses
Last Tuesday, my sweet baby boy got some new spectacles. I hate that he can't see well and needs them, but dang it, babies wearing glasses is just the cutest thing! Our regular pediatrician, Dr. Hull, does a routine eye check at 6 months. They use a little computer to scan the babies eyes. ...
Jase’s First Birthday
(Disclaimer: I have been trying to get this post up since Tuesday. My computer isn't working correctly, my camera isn't working correctly, and the weather hasn't been conducive to the one-year pictures I have been dying to take. The post is going up, finished or not. When you read this, please ...
Disney Family Vacay, Part 2
We started day four of our Disney vacation with a character breakfast at Hollywood & Vine, inside Hollywood Studios. We were the first family of the day, so we were the only ones (that day!) to get a group picture with all four characters. They gave us a "First Family" certificate and ...
Disney Family Vacay, Part 1
Our Disney trip was so much fun and I want to make sure to tell you all about it. There is just so much stuff that I decided to break it up into two separate posts, but each part is still pretty lengthy. So grab a cup of coffee, prop your feet up, and enjoy part 1 of our Disney vacation ...
Jase at 6 Months
You guys, I can't believe it, but today my baby boy is 6 months old! One half of a year! This little boy has brought so much joy into our lives. He laughs all the time. He especially loves when the girls talk to him and the louder they get, the louder he laughs! I have been ...
Lately (Shark Week version)
You guys, it's SHARK WEEK!! I don't usually get all into sharks, but I have been sucked in majorly this year. Maybe it was Anna's super awesome, last-minute, kick-off party? Funny story: A few years ago, when Kyndall was 4(ish), Justin let her watch a few episodes of shark week. In the middle ...
How to Bathe a Beast (AKA: Max, an 80-pound dog)
In case you were wondering, yes we still have our fur babies. I know things have been all about our real kids lately, but Max and Oakley are still very much a part of our lives. (We LOVE our dogs. I only call Max a beast because of his size. He's actually a really great dog. Well, he needs major ...
That’s What She Said, Family Edition
Y'all, it is daily that my people say things to make me laugh. Sometimes, it is just using the wrong word or phrase in a sentence. Other times, it is something outright funny. This is a collection of some of those things. On our recent hike to Bankhead, we crossed over a small creek. ...
The “Big Tree” Hiking Fail
Take note of that sling Jase is wrapped in--it's going to be important later. And those closed eyes are Libby's new picture thing--she does it in every single picture she takes, unless I fuss. The struggle is real, y'all. If you aren't from around these parts (as in, North Alabama), you may ...
