A little giggle

Little B got this Radio Flyer Coaster for Christmas from his great-grandparents. They have this same kind of thing at school and he LOVES it- so I thought for sure he would be excited.

He hasn't gotten back on it since!

Wanted to share a picture- or two!

My sweet and gifted friend Amber took our Christmas card and family photos last weekend. I love every single photo that she took- what is not to love when everyone is dressed up and someone who knows what they are doing is capturing photos of your family! I will share a lot of them later- but this one makes me laugh every time- Bradford's face is classic- the ironic thing is that he looks completely ticked that his brother won't stop crying- of all people in our house- Little Bradford has never showed ONE ill feeling toward Hampton. He has never complained about his crying or the time that he takes away from his time with his mama. So though this photo looks like Bradford is annoyed and ticked- he is more ticked at us for making him take a million photos on a gorgeous day instead of playing!
Okay one more-this captures some of the trees in our neighborhood and makes me so happy- also Little B's pose is pretty classic!


My mom made these matching outfits! I just monogrammed them! I loved getting the phone call from my mom when she was at the Smocking Bird in September and asked what fabric I wanted for their Christmas outfits! They turned out even better than I expected!

Christmas Tree shopping in Florida


This year we ventured out to cut down a Christmas Tree in Florida. Last year I posted this post about how we missed Atlanta and getting to cut down a Christmas tree. A friend that is from here sent us a few Christmas Tree Farms that are about an hour from Tampa. We felt like The Griswolds from Christmas vacation! The Christmas Tree is really pretty and is a lot thinner than the ones that we cut down in Atlanta. I am looking forward to continuing the tradition of cutting down a Christmas Tree each year!

They had a fun train ride around the farm

We found our tree!
Watching Daddy cut it down
Helping him saw
Little B loved running all around
We got back too late to decorate the tree so we decorated it the next evening. We are having so much fun watching Little B do all of these fun holiday things!

For Jenn

Did I mention that my best friend(maid of honor) Jenn is pregnant! Pretty exciting!

Since you are on bed rest we wanted to help pass the time with some fun videos to entertain you! The first one is especially for you as Little B guesses what your baby is! Pretty funny that we hadn't talked about it before and he knew exactly what he wanted to say when I asked him. We can't wait to find out what you are having!







Hang in there! We are coming to see you in less than two weeks! Can't wait to see you and for you to meet Hampton! Love you so much!

Hampton at 2 months

Here is Hampton at 2 months and a few days :)
Weight: 12 lbs and 14 ounces(75%)
Height: 22 1/2 inches (50%)
Look who is happy! Little man has been on a new medicine for a week and a half now and it has made the WORLD of a difference. He is definitely sensitive and for sure knows what he wants.....but he is not in pain and is having great days! Now that we have gotten that figured out- we are trying to work on sleeping a little bit longer segments at night.
Thank you Ma C for the adorable smocked turtles!

Photobooth

I can't find the darn thing that I use to download photos from our camera- so until I get a new one or my brain comes back to me- enjoy these!

What do you do when two boys want to be held at the same time?


You hold them and entertain the two year old with photobooth!

Sweet Hampton. He really is doing better- but he has mastered puckering out the bottom lip!

Blogging from the car!

We are on the final stretch- 7 hours down- 3 to go! The last hours seem to be the hardest! I pulled out a mobile that sweet Aunt Sara gave us(or let us take) and it seemed to work some magic! Will post pics from Thanksgiving soon but here are some cute ones from my phone ! Oh and as I am writing this we are stopped bumper to bumper... I Am holding Hampton as he is not too happy about the car not going... So much for three hours to go...
