Dancing Music...

By special request, I am going to try to most more videos of the boys so that you can really see how much they are both growing and changing...I will start with Will eating and dancing! You can really see his personality gleaming!

Bath Time...

Will loves taking his baths in the kitchen sink...soon he will be too big for the sink...

Teeth, Teeth and More Teeth...

William now has six teeth! Yes, SIX. He has his two bottom front teeth that he has had for several months. And he now has his four top front teeth!

Now at 8 months, he is growing and changing every day. He is crawling, pulling up to stand, waving bye-bye, making sounds, eating solid food, feeds himself finger foods, follows Zachary everywhere and definitely recognizes mom & dad. He is such a wonderful little boy!

Airplane Flight!

Today, David and Zachary went flying in our friend Jason's plane over our house and Clemson. Since we live near the Clemson Airport, Zachary loves planes and waves to every plane that passes over our house. So as expected, he absolutely loved flying. He has been telling everyone that he "flew in a really big plane way way up in the air with the birds." Thanks Jason for taking us flying!!

Here is a picture of our house...

The kiddos with "Pilot Jason."

Thanks Jason. The boys had a lot of fun. David loved seeing our house and Clemson University from up above!

Grandmother's House

While David & I were on our cruise, we were very fortunate to have David's parents watch both boys all week. They played and played and played like typical boys. They went to the water fountain downtown, Hollywild, swimming at the community pool, visiting friends and out to dinner. I think the boys had a lot of fun and I think the grandparents were ready to send them home!

Congrats Bryan & Leslie!

During our family cruise, Bryan proposed to his girlfriend of seven years Leslie...and she said "yes." Looks like we will be having another wedding next year! We are all thrilled to welcome Leslie to our family!!

Congrats to Bryan and Leslie!

Cruise to Key West & Bahamas!

Last week, we enjoyed a cruise to Key West & the Bahamas with 18 of our family! We had a wonderful time. I personally enjoyed two spa treatments...a back massage and a full body exfoliation! I felt great. We ate dinner each night in the dining room as a family, sang karoke several nights, went to the shows, participated in games, enjoyed the sunshine, and ate lots of food.
We spent one day in Key West, where David and I toured the city on a Conch Train and ate lunch at Margaritaville! We bought the boys new Harley Davidson shirts and lost of their famous Rum Cake. We also spent on day in the Bahamas where we enjoyed a Catamaran boat ride and snorkling (the best part was the unlimited Bahaman Rum Punch...and David was chosen to do shots at the bar). We had a wonderful time and can not wait to do it again!!

Thomas The Train

Chick-fil-a hosted a train day where children could play games and ride Thomas The Train for free. Zachary, Will and I went with our friends Mariko & Hunter and enjoyed all the activities as well as lunch!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Sunday was me and David's 6th Wedding Anniversary...and we did not even see each other. I worked Saturday night and David work all day Sunday. So, we celebrated Monday. I slept most of the day Monday but work up to six beautiful roses! We celebrated with a quiet dinner at Copper River (thanks to our wonderful neighbors Mariko & Jason who watched the boys). It is hard to believe we have been married for six years and now have two children!

SIX FLAGS

Zachary & I went with our friends ray, Jolene and Elliott to Six Flags Atlanta and had a BLAST! We left at 8:30am from our house and stayed at the park until almost 8:00pm...with no naps! I was a little hesitant because Zachary is only three years old and only thirty-six inches tall. I was wrong. He acted like he was ten years old. He rode every ride possible, which surprised mom! He rode Splash Water Falls, Mind Scrambler, Sky Buckets, Canyon Blaster, Monster Mansion, Thomas the Train, Hanson Cars, and so much more. A few of the rides made my stomach turn so I was surprised that Zachary enjoyed them soooooo much. He wanted to ride them over and over again. I had to carry him often because of the hills and his legs were hurting. I can not wait to go back again!

Zachary had to meet all the characters...

Jolene and ray riding Drop Zone or something like that...

The QUIET RIDE HOME...

We got home at 10pm and Zachary was begging to get in his bed. He told me..no pajamas mom, no bathroom just put a pull-up on me...and he went to bed with his wizzard hat on!
