CAUGHT IT!!!

I've been trying to catch a snapshot of Jack's smile for days now, and I finally caught it!! He has been just a smiling and cooing lately. I just love to see that smile and his sweet voice say "Ohhh." I hope these pictures brighten your day as much as they brightened mine.

Jack's One Month Check Up

Jack went to have his one month check up today at the Pediatric Clinic. Dr. (Matt) Carter said that Jack looked great. Dr. Carter is so sweet and gentle with my boys. We love him! Jack weighed 11 lbs 1 ounce (with his diaper and shirt on)and measured 22 inches long. Jarrod doesn't believe Jack weighs 11 lbs yet. Will was 10 lbs and 11 ounces on his first month visit, so Jack may be pretty close to it. He may not be 11 lbs, but he definitely is filling out a good bit. He did well when Ms. Beth gave him his shots. We'll go back in a month, November 23rd, for his two month check up.

The Polls are Open!!

Be sure to place your vote for who Jack favors most!

A Halloween Riddle...

Big Blue Eyes

This little angel has some big blue eyes that I just love. (notice he has his daddy's pupils) Jack is such a pretty baby. He turned 1 month old yesterday. My, how time flies! I am cherishing the sweet moments with him during my maternity leave. He is a good baby. The little bit of colic he has each night from 7p-10p is easily cured with the hairdryer or some continuous patting on the back. I feel so blessed to have another precious boy!

Lookin' for a Playmate

Will loves playtime, especially playing outside with his cousins or his daddy. Today when he woke up from his nap, he wanted to play outside so badly, but his usual playmates weren't here. Mackenzie and Davis are in Orlando on vacation, and Jarrod was at the store. I know that Will is going to be glad when Jack is old enough to play with him. Will is constantly aware of where Jack is and what Jack is doing. The other day Will was throwing the ball, and he kept saying "Watch this, Jack!" "Watch this, Jack!" He surely loves his little brother, and I am so thankful to have such sweet little boys. Here are some pictures of Will looking for a playmate....ENJOY!!



"Get up Jack, catch the ball!



"Wake up Jack, let's play!"


"I love you, Jack!"


"Jack sleeps all the time."


"Hey, Monk-Monk, let's play!"


"I love you too, Green Monkey!"

Lee County Fair

We made our first trip to the Lee County Fair tonight. It is set up right behind mama's house, so Shea, Mackenzie, Davis, Jarrod, Will, Jack, mama, and I walked over to the fairgrounds from mama's house. The fall weather is so nice, and the kids were so excited! I personally was looking forward to the funnel cake. :-)
We had a good time. But,we found ourselves missing those good ole' Selma Cozy Dogs from the Central AL Fair and Jarrod was missing the Peanut Festival that he grew up going to.

Here is Will's first Merry go round ride. We would wave and call his name as he went by each time, and he would get so tickled!


Mackenzie and Davis posed with Spongebob! Will liked to admire Spongebob from a distance.


Will wanted to take another spin on the "Horsey's," so MeMaw went to give Jarrod a break from spinning in circles. Davis had a great time riding with his mommy. He just grinned so big as he rode his horse!


Davis and Will admiring the bunny rabbits. We considered getting a rabbit to send home to Bubba as a 10th wedding anniversary present, but we decided that he might not appreciate that.


Will playing with the giant baseball bat that his daddy won for him.

Baby Jack

From the first moment I saw this face, I couldn't get over how pretty this baby is. Baby Jack is such a blessing to our family! Here are some pictures that I took of our sweet angel this week.

Will's Week

Will has had an eventful week. He became a big brother, had his first ear infection, and lots of family and friends visiting. Thankfully he is feeling better and got to enjoy some play time outside today.

The drum set that Aunt Heather brought home for Will from yard saling. I think Jarrod is already on the lookout to find something similar for Dawson! ;-)
As long as the drum set stays outside, Will can make a joyful noise all he likes.


Will and Davis played football in the backyard. They are so cute. Davis has taught Will the Auburn intro songs, so they both say "Right here, right now, right here, right now!" Davis told Will today that he would be Cam Newton and Will could be T Zach.




This little fella' just melts my heart!
