I get to get dressed up in my wedding dress (guess I better stop eating!) and take some romantic pictures with my hubby! I am so freaking excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Week with Cool Aunt Erin

Some of the greatest memories I have from growing up include the visits I had with my cousins for a week or so in the summer.  It was a week non-stop fun.  Last week was officially, "week with Cool Aunt Erin."  I got my nephew, Jake from Oklahoma for a whole week!  I was able to take vacation to do all the things I had planned with them.  I also got to experience life with 3 kids under 5.  Yikes!

Austin and Jake don't get to see each other much but when they do, they pick up right where they left off.  Jake is 3 years old and likes to follow Austin EVERY WHERE he goes and do EVERYTHING Austin is doing.

They made their own BBQ chicken pizzas.

We got to visit with Aunt Jenny and cousins, Connor and Dylan at Chuck E Cheese.

One of the many prizes (pieces of junk) they brought home from CEC were parachute aliens.

I shouldn't knock them, they actually worked pretty good.  It's amazing how much energy boys will spend dropping these things from upstairs and going down to get them 187 times.

We went to Imagination Movers!  This is the only good pic that I got that night.  They boys had a great time!  Jake is an huge Imagination Movers fan.  He entertained us all week with the theme song to the show.  He knows every single word.  Every.  Single.  Word.  Thank you Papa and Granny for the opportunity to go!

Here they are in their Wobble Goggles and IM T-shirts.

Both of them wore these goggles the rest of the week.  I had some one ask me if they both had to have "special" glasses. Ha! 

We went to our friend Reese's 3rd birthday party.  

During this week, Jack's first tooth came in on the bottom.

They took a few much needed baths.

We made smores by the fire.

We also got to visit with Tattie, Grandpa, Aunt Shawn and Donna Dean during the week.  It was a crazy-busy week but totally worth it.  This is a tradition that we will try to do at least twice a year.  We love you Jakey!

Redo my I Do

I would LOVE to redo my wedding pictures this year!  I did not like any of our wedding photos and don't have any of them displayed.  It sure would be nice to do it for free....http://bellajoliphoto.com/blog/redo-your-i-do/

One Mess I Don't Mind Cleaning Up....

 

Action Jackson

Man, am I in for trouble!!!!  Jackson began sitting up and crawling all in the same week when he was six months old.  He has also pulled up to standing a few times.  I know....I can't believe it either!!!

The above photo was taken when he was just beginning to sit up on his own.  {Also, please note that he has on the most adorable baby leggings ever!  LOVE them.} 

He is teething big time.  One of the top teeth has just broken through and is on it's way.

He has now mastered sitting up (and looking completely adorable).

Tackling Tattie! 

His sweet brother likes to crawl behind him when he starts to go to too far or get into something so that Jack doesn't get hurt.  He is crawling ALL over the place. 

It's sort of weird for me because Austin did not crawl this soon nor did he crawl on all fours.  Had a monkey/handicapped crawl.  There is no stopping Action Jackson.  He won't even stay still long enough for me to hold him. :(
