8 months...already!!

Our sweet little Weston is 8 months old! Wow, how the time does fly right on by. I need it to slow down a bit.

Weston is still the happiest baby. We are sooooo blessed to have such a fantastic baby! Just look at him, he's always smiling!



So what is new with Weston at this stage?
*Well....a week before he hit the 8 month mark he started crawling! He is now into everything.
*He is a squirmy little guy! He's constantly moving around when you hold him.
*He loves to eat! He will a ton of solid food. But he pretty much prefers the smooshy kind - none of those fun Gerber snacks yet.
*He is very, very vocal. Always making noises and saying da-da. Still hasn't mastered ma-ma.
*Weston has the best laugh! You can never be in a bad mood when you are around him.
*He loves, loves, loves his big brother. His face lights up when he sees Holton.


We just adore you, Weston xoxoxo

Better late than never!

I do realize it is June and that Easter was several months ago, but better late than never is my motto (well, at least when it comes to this blog).

Patrick and Amanda hosted a beautiful lunch and Easter Egg hunt at their house. They had tons of family over and we all had a great time. Amanda is such a little decorator. Each kid had their own pile of Easter stuff. Holton couldn't wait to dig in.

Grandma and Grandpa with all of their Grandkids!

Weston had a great time playing with his cousin, Sutton. It's so much fun to see them interact, especially since they are only 2 months apart. Anyhoo, Sutton wore Weston out. He won't be in any more of the pictures as he was enjoying a nice long nap.


The kids right before the Easter Egg hunt.



Love this picture of Holton with Kiersten & Clayton! He adores them!


We all had so much fun. Thanks for a wonderful day, Patrick and Amanda. Sorry it took me so long to update!

Disney World

The week that we visited Florida just happens to be one of the busiest times of the year for Disney World. We stressed about whether or not we should tackle the lines and the crowd. But how could we be in Orlando and not take our boys?

We of course gave in to that guilty feeling & we did it! We made it through a day at Disney World with a 4 year and a 6 month old!

We arrived just in time for the parade. Weston was more interested in eating.

Holton was so happy that this guy said hi to him.

Starting to look a little tired here

Weston having fun

Can you tell how hot they are?


Check out the guy behind Holton. That is a classic "photo bomb" and he realizes it just as I take the picture.

I'm so glad we made it to Disney World. Holton had a blast and we are looking forward to going back when Weston is old enough to enjoy it all.








Beach with the boys

During our Florida vacation we had to hit up the beach!

Weston really wanted to get in the sand

This was Weston's first ever beach experience.


He loved it! Of course he was all about touching and eating the sand. A healthy diet!



Holton enjoyed his own version of surfing



It was so great to see the boys playing together. Holton was so protective over his little brother. Made me proud! (Wonder if he'll be the same way in 10 years)

Family of 4 Fun in Florida!

I realize we took our trip to Florida in April, and here it's almost June, but we've been a little busy.

So, let's get to our first family of 4 trip. Adam got us a fantastic hotel in Florida that had a lazy river. You can not believe how excited Holton was about this. And this was Weston's first time in a pool. How cute are these guys :)


Our first stop was Sea World. See how excited Holton was...well, at least Weston wanted his picture taken.

Holton loved the Shamu show. His favorite part was when Shamu splashed the crowd.




Holton's first ride at Sea World

Took a little convincing, but he did go down the big slides.

Sharks were swimming at our feet

By far Holton's favorite was the Clyde & Seymour show with these attractive guys.




The boys gave Sea World Orlando a big thumbs up!
