Happy Fifth Birthday, Grace!

Grace, we love you more than words can describe! We were so happy to celebrate with you today (even though it is still five days early). We're proud of your swimming, too. We are also thankful that God answered our prayers and the rain held off.

Happy Cow Appreciation Day 2014!


You know it's a good day when more restaurants are offering free food than your family has time to consume in the day. As bad as I regretted passing up on Seven-11's free slurpie day (to celebrate 7/11), we did carve out time Friday for our annual trek to Chick-fil-A's Cow Appreciation Day. We went all out with little Grant's costume even though he was the least aware person in the store.

Grant's favorite way to spend the day!

First Pool Fun!

I've been chomping at the bit to give Grant his first pool experience for awhile now, and June 26 on his 9-week birthday we took the plunge in the baby pool at MacGills Commons. He LOVED it. I knew he would. He's loved water since his earliest tub baths. He is my first child who doesn't even mind getting his hair washed. I actually think he likes it.


Brother and Sister were happy to show him the ropes in the pool.



Getting out and dry was probably his least favorite part, but he certainly was a cutie. More water, please!

Happy 2 Months!




Grant is a big, happy two-month-old. He weighed in at 15 lb 12 oz and stretched out to an amazing 25 inches! He smiles and coos and continues to delight his whole family. Mommy and Daddy are especially happy because he's a champion sleeper and went a record 10 hour 45 minute stretch last night. Grace designed the "2" he's pictured with.

Archie's First Piano Recital

Archie and I have been working on piano since the beginning of the school year. He had a chance to show off his efforts by playing the Doxology at our homeschool Share Fair. He was motivated to work harder by hearing some of the older, better kids play.

Nice to Meet You, Aunt Kay!

We were so happy to introduce Grant to his Great Aunt Kay last week. It was love at first sight!
