Logan loves riding in the luggage cart when we stay at hotels. 
This is a picture of our friend group that tries to get together quarterly.  We have so much fun together!

Pictures from the. Each trip to Anna Maria, Island. It took Logan a day or two to not be afraid of the ocean.  He enjoyed playing in the sand and with shovels.  
Josh started Jitsu when I stopped doing Cfossfit due to my pregnancy.

We let the girls get their hair highlighted for the first time at the same place I do my hair and now they are hooked! 
On our way out of Myrtle Beach on Sunday, we stopped At Broadway at the Beach and Logan got to ride a few rides.  He loved this one the best.

4th of July Festivities at the seaside club

Kaitlyn had a volleyball tournament in Myrtle Beach, SC and then Orlando, FL for her nationals.   Since Josh didn’t have a lot of vacation days built up, we turned the Orlando trip into our vacation also. 

Amanda, Claire, Camille, Mimi and Poppy came down for the Orlando part of the trip   Addison was super excited about that because they took her to the Universal Theme Parks.  

We decided to try a Florida beach on the Hulf coast since none of us had been to the Hulf coast.  We went down for three nights to Anna Maria Island before driving up to Orlando   The water was beautiful and super warm which I liked.  The pool was even warmer.  Two of the days at the beach thought the seaweed and debris in the water was really bad.   

Logan really got the hang of his puddle jumper and jumping in the pool by himself.  Before this, he had not wanted to do much with a pool.  

When in Myrtle Beach, we were able to visit Nana’s side of the family in Conway and it was so good to see them!

We made a trip to wilmington for Addison to do surf camp and we stayed at the Sea Side Club.  Josh didn’t come with us on this trip due to lack of vacation time and he did our neighborhood fireworks this year on July 4th.

Weston is 2 Years’s old & Hurricane Helene

Weston started preschool for the first time in August. We were nervous about him biting other children as he bites an often. He will bite our shoulders when things do lot go his way. He enjoys going to nursery at church and childcare at the YMCA so we were hopeful he would enjoy it. So far he has done great! I did get a notice from the school that he had been bit by another child. I had to read it twice to make sure I read it right but I did. Weston is very outgoing and likes interacting with the people he is around.   Weston still doesn’t use many words but it is increasing at a slow rate.  He can say Mama, Dada, Go, Bubble, Ball, Hello, Up, Hi, and Out.  We have started him in speech therapy.  Weston is starting to be more of a daddy’s boy. He has asked him to rock him to sleep a few times. He loves to be outside especially anytime daddy is outside. We have to make sure the front door has a safety lock on it or he will just walk out the front door when no one is pa...

Boy How Time Flies!

Well I can't believe Addison is 17 months old and Kaitlyn is a few days away from being 2 months old! We are all doing well. Addison is saying more and more words. She pretty much tries to repeat most of the words we say. Josh just keeps saying "She is so much fun". Addison is becoming more of a daddy's girl since I am always nursing Kaitlyn or picking up the house. She says "Dada" much more than "Mama." She now calls my father Papa and my mom Mimi. My father came up this weekend and if any of you know my father, of course, he bought us doughnuts. And Addison definitely knows the word doughnuts due to my dad. I am having to look for winter clothes for Addison so I am on the hunt for cheap winter outfits for her. Clothes are so expensive! Kaitlyn is growing out of all of her newborn size clothes but I keep putting them on her because I know she will never wear these cute outfits ever again. She has started cooing and she smiles a lot. She is sleepin...

1 Year Old Birthday Party

I can't believe Addison is a year old today!! She had a wonderful turnout at her birthday party this past Saturday. I believe there were over 35 people total that came! She got many clothes, toys and socks. We are so thankful for all of her gifts. Tonight Josh and I took her to Cracker Barrell so she could have a pancake on her actual birthday. We sang "Happy Birthday" to her many times today and each time she smiled really big at us while we sang to her. Isn't this sweet! Addison with her aunt Kim. This is 4 generations and Addison was reaching for her aunt Kim. Here she wasn't being shy anymore. This was her personal cake and she wasn't sure if she could touch it. She petted it for a while and finally she ate some after I started feeding it to her. Addison and her very loved uncle Jeff. Notice how content she is in his arms. She also loved the train her uncle Jeff got her. She loved her chair she got from her aunt Nancy. Addison and her great grandm...
