This is just a big combination of lots of things. First of all here are some pictures of my sweet boy when I went to get him out of his bed after a nap one day last weekend. He doesn't sleep in here at night but takes naps sometime in here on the weekend.
This is a new face he makes where he sticks his lips out like he is saying "whatcha talking about?" ha!
Looking at some things I put in his bed after he woke up... except for the Georgia Bulldog..... that took a nap with him



These next ones are from this morning and tonight. This morning he was just so happy and now he can't stand laying on his back and is ALWAYS trying to sit up... even in his car seat!

So Happy!

Look Mommy I'm sitting up! ha!


And here is tonight. This was the first time I have given him rice cereal and I think he actually liked it! He ate about half of what I made him!


Ok so I can't believe I am even posting this picture with me in it I look terrible! Lets just say its been a long day, good but long.


Ok am I done yet??

Beside that nothing else new is going on. We go on Friday for his 4 month check up and I can't wait to see ow big he is now!
And because I didn't post anything yesterday Holden would like to wish his Aunt Megan a HAPPY late BIRTHDAY!!

Alligator Point

Monday, April 12, 2010

Last week I had the week off since it was spring break so Jack took a vacation week from work and off to Alligator Point, Florida we went! We left on Saturday and had so much fun with my Mom, Billy, my brother Kyle and my SIL Dale. The island was soo quiet and not many other people were there. The house that we rented was on the bay side of the island so we kinda had our own beach. It was awesome! Here are a few of the pictures from our trip!



This is before we left! Holden was ready to go!

These are a little out of order but this is just the morning after we got there....which was also Easter


He was tired from playing in the car ha! Just look at all of his toys



I sat in the back half of the way down there since it was 6 hours in the car and after awhile Holden wasn't too happy and still sick then.




Easter day at the beach

Is his Easter outfit that Aunt Jamie let us barrow that our sweet niece Sophia wore last year




Sleeping with Daddy after hanging out at the beach


The boys loved fishing on the next door neighbor's dock. No one was home or at the houses on the same street with us almost all week

Hanging out on the beach


He even took a nap on the beach! I love how you can see the sand and the clouds oh and Harris my Mom and Billy's dog


Holden with Uncle Kyle and Aunt Dale

Thursday we drove to Mexico beach and ate an awesome place called Toucan's. This place is so good and means a lot to our family since we would always go there on our family trips before Michael died. This was me and Kyle first time back and Jack, Dale and Holden's first time ever there.

At the beach again

Another family picture

This is my FAVORITE picture of the whole week of Jack and Holden's feet!

We had such a great week with our family. And I even got to celebrate my birthday at the beach! Who wouldn't like that?!?

Ultimate Blog Party?? I think so!

Ultimate Blog Party 2010

How fun is this!! I do have to say I am a little, ok a lot obsessed with blogging and reading other people blogs. They are just so much fun! I found this link today and thought it was wonderful because you can get a tour of other peoples blogs and they can tour thru yours! I think that this is great and you get to take a peek at what other people just like you are doing around the country and even world!

So If you are new or just stopping by my blog here is a little info on me: My name is Emily and I am a 26 year old living an amazing life in Georgia! My husband Jack and I were married two and a half years ago, after dating only one year (even though we met back in high school). Back in December we welcomed our sweet baby Holden to our family. He has been the most amazing thing to ever happen to us! After giving us a scare and having three seizures and a stroke after he was born, he is doing wonderful and is off all of his seizure medicine and doing awesome! I am a nanny for a very sweet little boy that keeps me super busy during the day. I love taking a million pictures of my boys and blogging to tell about it. (I am hoping to turn it into a book someday) We love to have fun and hang out with our awesome friends and the most amazing family that we could ever ask for! And I hope that you enjoy seeing a little of what goes on in our daily life : )

Three Amigos

Friday, April 2, 2010

On Thursday, we had Tucker over to play while his Daddy had to go up to Cash's school. Three kids under the age of two. Wow. They were busy. And usually it is a lot calmer than it was the other day but everyone was awake and it was lunch time. For everyone. But in between the craziness, which wasn't too bad as long as you keep them occupied with I don't know... goldfish..., I got a couple of super cute picture of the three boys!


Tucker was y first baby and I can't believe that he is going to be TWO at the end of the month! (I started keeping him when he was only three weeks old!)

This picture is so funny!

Tucker LOVED Holden just not for too long ha!

Hugging him again

He would just come over and look at him and then go play.
While I was getting lunch ready I suction cupped a bowl to the floor( so Campbell couldn't dump it out which didn't last long) and filled it with goldfish for them to snack on
Holden hung out on the counter in the swing so no one could get him
Sweet Tucker Man
Such a silly boy!
This picture makes me laugh so hard! They were over the picture and Cam had found Holden's bottle!

Seriously what was I thinking??

Last Wednesday I decided that it might be fun to let Campbell feed himself spaghetti since he was in a kinda funny mood and I just wanted to see what he would do. Oh ad just a reminder hes one. Once again what was I thinking?! Ha! I should Holden was asleep when I first decided this....

Not sure if I am really going to let him play....
Ok now I know what I am supposed to do.....

Lets just eat it off of my tray.....

How bout we dump it out! Perfect!
I should add here this is when Holden woke up. Great now what!?!

Or we can just eat it out of the bowl like this! Ha!

He had it EVERYWHERE and had to have a bath! Thank goodness Cam's Daddy Matt was home to help since Holden and Cam both decided to start crying in the middle of trying to get Campbell dried off and down for a nap.
I LOVE this picture because he puts his hands up like this every time you ask him a question. And here it looks like you are asking him what happened or who made this mess and he just looks like I don't know!
Thank goodness they have two dogs which came in and cleaned up the floor for me!

He sure did very messy but I do think that had had a lot of fun! And who doesn't like eating and making a mess!

Holden's Easter Basket

Happy Easter weekend! Last weekend we gave Holden his Easter basket since I wasn't sure if we would be here on Easter or not. While I was getting everything ready for it here is what the boys were doing! HA! This is my life and I love it!


In his Easter basket he got three new onsies all with surfboards on them(it was a three pack), a little frog bucket with eggs that Jack and I dyed for him in it, two new little toys to play with, some bubbles, and a new blanket just like the other one I got for him. I went on and got him another one since he LOVES it so much so he always has a clean one!
