September 2012

September was a busy month for all of us. Michael is getting pretty good at eating with a spoon, all by himself.

Of course, he likes to ham it up too. ;)

We took a trip to the Tyler Zoo and had a great time!

I thought this picture of me and Michael was so funny - me on the iPad and Michael on the iPhone. ;)

Gram and Pop kept Michael while Ford and I went to some football games. They had a big time just hanging out, playing outside and meeting Blake's friend Bree. Pop lets Michael play outside in the wet grass and dirt in his pj's and slippers. ;)

 

After a long day, it's nice to fall asleep with Gram. ;)

Here are a few other pics from us playing at the Legacy playground. The weather got so nice!

Happy September, and see you next month!

August 2012

I am super behind on blogging! Here's a little of what we were up to in August.

Ford and I took an anniversary weekend trip to New Orleans while Michael stayed at Gram and Pop's house. Gram bought him a hat that he wears EVERYWHERE!







We worked some in the yard with Daddy.

 



 

 



We ended the month with a bang. August 31st was the one-year anniversary of the day we got our referral for Michael. So we celebrated with family, friends, LSU, food and cake!

 

We got this beautiful cake from Aly B's Bakery!

 

A September post will follow soon!



July 2012

July was busy, busy for us! Michael spent a week with Gram and Pop and Uncle Blake. They all had big fun! We blew bubbles and read books with Uncle Blake and went swimming with Pop. Michael loves the pool.

Michael moved up a class at daycare. Here is a picture of him in his new room on the first day. It was harder for Momma than him. ;)

Michael got his first haircut since he's been home with us. It was an experience - he screamed the entire time.

Here we are at the Legacy playground with Daddy.

And here we are at the farm looking at the cows.

We took a trip to New Braunfels, Texas with the Childers' to meet Uncle Eddie, Aunt Lupita, and cousins Camila and Constanza.





Here are some other fun pics from July.

Learning to use a spoon is getting easier!

 So is brushing our teeth!

Still loves hats!

Talking to Gram on the phone. ;)

Happy summer everyone!

June 2012

Michael turned 18 months June 4th! He is growing so fast and learning all sorts of new things.

We started June off with cousin Sophie's birthday party. Michael "stole" one of her presents for the afternoon. ;)

Here we are just a swingin'!

Michael is definitely not afraid of the pool! We took him swimming for the first time in a big pool, and he loved it.

He sacked out after swimming. ;)

We celebrated Daddy's first Father's Day!

 

Here's Ford with his brothers and Dad with all the kids. Happy Father's Day, Daddy!
