A Fun Fourth!!

Celebrating the 4th at Fort Morgan is a family tradition. Andrew joined in this year, and we had a great time!! May-May got all the boys American flag swimsuits (as well as t-shirts), and she decorated the downstairs.

Andrew loved to swing downstairs - especially with Buddy (or May-May).

We added something new to our 4th festivites...a parade!! It was lots of fun. Afterwards, we had our hot dog roast and made s'mores - yum!

Andrew loved the beach, but I think his favorite thing to do was play with his wagon - pulling up on it, cruising around it, lifting the handle up and down...he loved it. He also loved getting some fun hanging out time with his Aunt Sis!

Beach Baby

We had a fun trip to Fort Morgan for the 4th of July. I have several pictures to post, but here are a couple of Andrew on the beach...

Andrew is cooling off in the pool with his beach buddies Isabelle, Raif, and Edie.

Andrew loved the water! There were a couple of days that the water was perfect for him to float in his raft. This day was one of them and Andrew & Wilson are all smiles!!

Girls just wanna have fun....

....and we did!!!!

We took our 7th annual girls' beach trip (I think that's what we figured out...) and had a GREAT time!!! It was so much fun being together for a few days and relaxing on the beach....

No eating/napping schedules to work around, no diapers to change, no cooking/cleaning....i didn't know what to do with myself!!! I really missed my boys and was so glad to get back to them,...but it was a wonderful break! Many thanks to Wilson and May May and Buddy for keeping Andrew so that I could go!

Girls...it was tons of fun and i can't wait 'til next year!!

I hate i don't have a group pic of all of us!!

Visit to "the Shirley ranch"!

Now that Ricky Joe and Debbie have horses, we say that we're visiting the ranch when we go to Meridian! Andrew loved watching the horses...he even touched them! They are very sweet and gentle and I'm so excited he'll grow up seeing them. Wilson and I joke about how when Andrew is a little older he'll probably rather be at either Papaw and Ganny's house seeing the horses and hunting or at Buddy and May May's house fishing by the lake then at home with us!!

I love how Andrew and the horse are looking at the camera! It's like they are both thinking....Who/what is he???

ON THE WEB...

We have had some precious pictures taken of Andrew.... Allison Muirhead does a wonderful job! She has begun blogging and posted a couple of pictures of Andrew. One is from when he was just 7 weeks old and the other is a 9 month photo. Check them out, and if you need a photographer....she is great!!

Her blogsite is below, and Andrew is under "Watch Me Grow".
