Finally, For Real Now

What is Jackson doing?

Crawling, For Real!

We realized that Jackson doesn't care for army crawling through the grass. So he finally figured out how to push up and only have his hands on the ground! The next few days are supposed to be nice, so we plan to spend a lot of time outside until he perfects his new skill!

Yay Jackson!

Toddler Tuesday: Don't go to Sleep!

On Saturday we went to Columbia to see Nana and Kansas in a dog show. While we were there Jackson took a pretty decent nap, but Mary Beth wore herself out having tons of fun. We left the arena around 2:30 to go get lunch. She was so exhausted...

Every parent needs a good video of their child falling asleep =)

Crib Wrestling

Mary Beth and Jackson love to wrestle.

I used to worry that Mary Beth would accidentally hurt him,

but now that they are the same size I let em go for it.

After they wore each other out,

I gave Mary Beth a book to read to Jackson...

she's such a good big sister!

On the Lake

Stephen's Aunts, Uncles, cousins, MawMaw and Paul all met at
Lake Keowee this weekend. We were so glad that we could make it
and visit with them on Saturday.


Mary Beth went down to "help" Uncle Tim with the boat.
Just to make sure she was obeying, I spied on her from the porch
(the 2nd picture is when she spotted me)




getting their vests on


(Jackson's first boating trip)


watching cousins on the raft thingy


trying to decide if she wants to go out on the waves like the big kids




Stephen took Mary Beth out for a big adventure and
Aunt Kay volunteered to take Jackson so I could video


Here they goooooo....





We had a great time! Can't wait till next year!

I'm a Puggle!

Last week Mary Beth started AWANA.
She is the cutest thing with her Puggle shirt and bag.
All week long we have been working on saying "I'm a Puggle"
(and as soon as I turn on the camera she gets shy)
but I finally got one.



a few pics from her first night as a Puggle:





"you ready?"

I turned around to get Jackson, and turned back around to see this.


When we got to church, her friend Addie was the first to arrive


cute girls

"I'm a Puggle!"
