Funny Friday

Here's how the conversation goes yesterday. . .

Austin - "I shared a pillow with Evy today during nap time."

Daddy - "Austin, let me ask you a question. Do you think Evy's pretty?"

Austin - "Yeah! That's why I shared a pillow with her."

Florida!

This summer, we got to take a family vacation to Florida! We rented a 12 passenger van and went with Ricky's mom and dad to a family reunion in Melbourne. We left on a Monday morning and then 23 hours (broken up into 2 days). . . we were there! The kids did really great. It was a much easier trip in the car than I thought it would be. . . although next time we go to Florida, I think we'll fly. :)

We did the family reunion thing, went to the beach, Kennedy Space Center, saw a movie at the IMAX, rode on an airboat, went to the beach some more and saw a lot of great countryside along the way. We had a great time. Below are some pics we took of the family on the beach and then a slideshow of all the fun things we got to do.

Summer Fun

We have been to the pool quite a bit this summer and have had a lot of fun. Jackson took to water like a fish and Austin is getting more and more brave in the water.

Austin's garden has also been growing, growing. In fact, we had some squash that Austin grew the other night. It was so good! Below is the garden, canteloupe, watermelon and tomatoes. YUMMY! I can't wait to eat them!

I'm 5 months old!

I just turned 5 months old. I weigh 19 lbs and am about 26 1/2 inches long. I know I am such a big boy, but not as big as daddy! He weighed in at 20 lbs when he was 5 months. I love to walk around in my walker and look out the window. My door jumper is pretty fun too! I never like to sit still unless I am listening to daddy play the guitar! I am not quite talking yet, but like to have yelling matches with Austin. I can almost sit up all by myself and also got to drink from a sippy cup for the very first time. I love to eat (as you can tell by the pictures). I have liked all the vegetables and fruit that my mommy has given me so far. Not a picky eater yet! oh, and I LOVE to swim in the pool. Here are a few pictures of me. :)

Austin & Jackson

Here are just a few pictures I have taken that I love.

Mini Me

Jackson has become a "mini me" for Austin. He is so cute. Austin loves to play the guitar. Below is a clip of him picking. I'd say he's pretty good for a 5 year old! As you can see below, Jackson is already starting his career as well. I am going to have a house full of musicians!

Who's who??? These pictures were taken at about the same age for both boys. Can you tell the difference?? Well, I think you can, but they are both pretty darn cute!

A Few Pics

Time is flying at our house! Jackson is already 3 1/2 months old. He went to the doctor today and weighs almost 15 lbs!! He is a BIG BOY. Austin is loving being "big brother" and helps out all the time. Here are just a few pics from the past couple of weeks.

Jackson having tummy time. . .he can now roll over one way from his tummy to his back. In fact, he's been waking up in the middle of the night because he can't get back to his stomach!

I can sit in my Bumbo now!

His serious look.

The pictures below are from Austin's Garden. Austin helped MoMo and PaPa plant all sorts of vegetables and even popcorn. He can't wait until he can eat them!

Ricky made this sign. . . very cool. Daddy is so talented!

Here is Austin plowing up the garden getting it ready to plant.

Hard at work!

More pics

Jackson was 3 weeks old on Tuesday. The time has flown by so fast. Austin is the perfect big brother. He loves to feed, burp, hug and kiss his little brother. He can't get enough of being close to Jackson. It is so sweet. We are so thankful to be blessed with our two boys. Here are some updated pics from the last few days.
