Blackout

Sat we had 8 trees cut down and a ton of branches that were above our roof. Our inspector over 2 years ago told us that we needed to get them cut and we haven't done it. Then good ole Fay came along and after seeing all the trees down at Mom and Dad's house, Matt and I decided we better take care of it. They did a great job and I love that my backyard is more open! We might even get daring enough to plant a garden back there next year. I hated some of the trees and it was a delight to see them go. The whole process was fun to watch and William loved watching all the stuff going on outside. He is SO alert.



Well, Georgia unfortunately lost on Sat. I cannot even talk about it because it makes me so mad that we allowed them to score 31 points in the first half. Ah.... Anyway, William was in his black and proud of it. I have included captions to let you know what he was thinking!



Go Dawgs! I love the blackout!


Yeah - I get to watch it at Shug and Dada's house!


Grrrrrrrr. I'm not scared of Alabama!


Ew.... I hope I never have to watch that game again!

Finally updating!

It is hard to believe that it has been a month since I have posted. Sorry for the delay. It seems like my days are going by so quickly and I don't have time to sit down and right. I don't know where to begin since SO much has happened over the last month.

To start off, Julie and I DID finish our vests. They are reversible. Julie and I chose one fabric that was the same so we could be identical if we ever needed to be. I will just have to remember where I put the vest when the time comes. :) Here are a few pics of us in them. The class was a blast - now if I could only remember how to bobbin my thread???? Aren't the vests great????
Here we are wearing the same side to be identical twins!
We reversed them and now we are no longer identical!

Reversible Vests!


William - wow has he grown. He weighed 18lbs at his 6 month check up. He is such a happy baby. God truly has blessed Matt and I. He is eating baby food now which he LOVES. He LOVES bananas and doesn't care too much for the green beans but I make him eat them anyway. We had a terrible night the other night (screaming a lot which is unlike him) and we gave him gas medicine, tylenol, and then orajel not knowing what was going on. To our great amazement, he had a tooth break through the skin! He is such a big boy now. He is rolling over AND sits up pretty well. It is amazing how much he learns everyday. He is quite an observer and so he doesn't miss a beat. I have attached a couple of pics so you can see how much he has grown - enjoy.
Yes, I still put my hands on my head when I get tired!

Sitting like a big boy!

Sitting in a restaurant high chair for the first time - I was with Nana and Pop!

Do I look cool or what?
