Butterflies and Ropes Course

We have season passes to Stone Mountain so took the opportunity to go there when Nana was in town a few weeks ago. Carson and Charles began the day putt-putt golfing  with Michael, Julee, and Cali. The park also had a cool butterfly exhibit. Carson LOVES butterflies and Timothy was fascinated. The park also has a ropes course for  little kiddos that Carson enjoyed. We will definitely be taking a trip there again soon!




I love my boys!

My two little guys keep me on my toes most days, but I am trying to do a better job of snapping pictures of my little love bugs. Carson really does such a good job with Timothy..he can make him laugh on cue and is so loving toward his little brother. It is hard to believe that Timothy is already 7 months old. He really is such a sweet and easy going baby. He is sitting on his own and starting to babble. No crawling yet, but lots of tummy time. He finally started sleeping through the night (Hallelujah!)and he is eating like a champ (though not a fan of peas or green beans). We call Timothy our "little grabber" because when he first began eating meals with us, we would plop him down in his bumbo seat in the center of the table (we also called him our centerpiece) and then would have to clear all cups, plates, food out of his reach.

Cool Dudes!
Who needs a babysitter when you got a brother.
Carson is sweet enough to "entertain" Timothy in the morning by filling his crib with animals or pulling a chair next to the crib and reading a book to him until I get out of bed to come and get him.

Carrots...yum!
The boys love hanging out with Cali.

What is so funny?

Tummy Time! 

Brotherly love.

Mother's Day

Charles asked Carson what he would like to do for me for Mother's Day this year. Carson said he wanted to take me to Hawaii. Since that wasn't going to happen, Charles asked Carson if he would like to paint a picture of Hawaii for me instead. Carson did an amazing job! Charles said that he outlined the details and Carson did all the painting. They even glued on real sand! It took them 3 hours to complete this masterpiece and I am so proud. I absolutely LOVE my painting!

A Visit to Florida

I am a couple months late in posting this, but better late than never. We took a trip down to Florida in May to see my mom graduate from Eckerd College. While we were there, we visited with family and friends and took Timothy to the beach for the first time.
 Way to go Nana! We are so proud of you.
