Busy Busy Busy

We are extremely busy these days. I feel like we are always on the go and never have time to sit and relax. We went to the beach last weekend. This morning we went to Maddie's 2nd b-day party and tonight Andrew and I are going on a dinner and movie date. Grant is staying the night with his Nana tonight. Tomorrow we have church and then I have a bridal shower for Nicole .

Next weekend we have VBS at church. And the following weekend Mimi is coming in town. That Sat we are going to take Grant to get his picture made and Sunday I have a lingerie shower i'm helping host for Nicole. So like I said we are BUSY BUSY!!

I've been neglecting this blog but I want to try and keep it up better...... and keep posting pictures of Grant. He is getting so big! Grant is growing so fast. He likes to sit up now. I can't belive he is fixing to be 3 months old.I will try to post some new pictures soon!

1st family vacation











We went to the beach last weekend for our first family vacation. It was nice to get out of Troy for a couple days. Andrew and I laid out and swam Saturday while Nana watched Grant. Then we went to eat at Margaritaville. It was nice but very crowded. We came back to the room and decided to take a short nap. About three hours later Nana came and woke us up. I guess mommy and daddy were super tired. we went out on the beach to take some pictures. It was very windy so we didn't stay out there long. Then we changed and went to Shuckums to eat dinner. We came home and Andrew and Ryan played Wi while Nana and I played with Grant. Then we went to sleep. Sunday morning Andrew and I went to walk on the beach and collect a few shells. We packed up and headed to Thomas's Donuts. That was the first time I ever ate there and it was delicious. We left and headed back home after that. It was s short vacation but a well needed one.

2 month check -up

Grant is getting so big! He weighed 11lb 10oz and was 22 1/2 inches at his two month check-up. I can't believe he is already 2 months old. Time flies!!! Grant got three shots and one medicine by mouth. He loved the stuff by mouth but wasn't a fan of the shots. He cried of course which broke my heart! He was fine once we got in the car and started riding. He is such a good rider.

Everything else was fine. We did get him so new bottles to help with the gas...haha! He has a bit of an issue. The bottles seem to be working good. We got the Doctor Brown's. Grant also got some new PJ's and a Classic Looney Tunes DVD ( however, I think its more for Andrew). Usually when i get home after work they are sitting there watching it!

4th of July Weekend

We had a wonderful 4th of July weekend!!

Andrew was off work on Friday, so he took Grant to meet Mimi and Pepaw in Greenville around 10AM . We let him have his first over night visit for the weekend. I thought I would get upset while he was gone but I did very well. We did have a busy weekend so I think it helped. Mimi and Pepaw also needed some alone bonding time with Grant.

Friday night we went to Chase's house and grilled out. Saturday I cleaned up around the house a little and then we went to Brittany and DJ"s 4th of July party. We had a good time minus some mud that got thrown in Andrew's eye. Of course, guys still act like children.

Sunday we slept late and then hung around the house until time to leave to go pick up Grant. He was really good on the way home. When we got back I held him and got in a few sniffs! haha, I also got a few new pics of him smiling! I love it when he smiles at me!!

picture post













It has been way to long

It has been forever it seems like since I have last posted a blog..... So much has happened.

1st -I have returned to work. My first week was last week (June 22). I was pretty busy catching up, so it went by pretty fast. Mimi was here to watch Grant... which made the transition easier. It was still hard to leave him. We had a great time while she visited. Thank you mimi!

2nd- Andrew celebrated his first Fathers Day! We went to church and they did something special for the fathers. Grant got him a card and 2 chokes for his gun. Mr. Bobby (my father-in-law) Granny, Jeremy, Heather and their children all came over for lunch. It was a time with the family. Andrew said he had a great day. Andrew is such a great father and we love his sooo much!!

3rd- Grant is growing so fast!! I can't believe he will be 8 weeks tomorrow. He is so much more alert. He will look at you and follow your voice. He has also started smiling and laughing. It is the cutest thing!

I still haven't mastered blogging and I don't know how to add the pictures with words in between. I will have to post a picture blog with some cute new ones!!

MiMi visit

We had a wonderful visit with Mimi. She came in town Tuesday morning and left today around lunch. We sat around Tuesday and watched My Best Friends Girl Tuesday night. It was very funny! We went shopping on Wednesday. Grant got lots of cute items: a book, duck stuffed animal, 2 pairs of pants and 2 Baby Einstein videos. Grant is so spoiled already!! We can't wait till our next Mimi visit!! We love our World's Greatest Mimi!
