Oh how I miss Destin!

I am finally posting pictures from our Annual Destin Vacation!! It was quite the experience this year. The day before we left I took Landyn into the doctor and found out that she had a double ear infection. So the first few days of the trip Landyn was not herself, but she improved and had a blast the rest of the trip. On day three of the trip, we received a phone call from our dog-watcher informing us that our house had been robbed. Total bummer! Then the night after that, we spent four hours in the emergency room with Brooks who had come developed an ear infection. Not fun. But despite all of the minor incidents, we had a great time with family and friends! These are a few of the pictures that we took. It is so hard to narrow them down to just a few!


Landyn and a friend she made on the beach.

Honey holding a napping Brooks. He fell asleep out on the beach almost everyday! I guess the water was soothing to him. So sweet!

Me and Jenn

Crazy Bed Head!!






I don't know what went on in Brooks' bed during the night, but this is what he woke up looking like!!! Landyn and I had a good laugh at his crazy hair this morning!!!

Happy Father's Day!!












We grilled steaks and made homemade icecream out a mom and dad's house for Father's Day. Yummy! I am so blessed to be married to such an amazing husband and father to our children!! And we are so blessed to have my dad close by so that Landyn and Brooks get to see their Biscuit every single day!! It was definitely a day to be celebrated!

Brooks' 9 Month Check-up

We visited Dr. Kastner today for Brooks' 9 month check-up. Everything looked great except for the mild ear infection!! Yikes! So we were given antibiotics! Bummer. Otherwise, Brooks is doing great! He is still working on getting that 7th tooth in! He has a whole mouth full of chompers! Still nursing well, although I talked to Dr. Kastner about maybe starting to wean him. He is eating all kinds of big boy food. You name it, he has probably had it and liked it! He is pulling up and cruising all over the place. There is not one square inch of our house that he has not explored! He is definitely all boy and is so different than what Landyn was like when she was little. We are so blessed to have him in our family!

9 Month Stats:

20 lbs. 10 oz. (50th %)
28 inches long (50th %)

Beating the Heat








Our neighbors gave us this cute little blow up pool that we put to good use yesterday. We have been going to swim at the Summit. But much to my disappointment, Brooks is not enjoying the swimming pool!! Yet, he loves bathtime and he did really well in the blow up pool. I don't know what it is about the big swimming pool that he does not like!! We are going to keep trying though! Especially since we leave in two weeks for Destin!!!! So I might be packing this little pool up and taking it with us to the beach! Haha!

Landyn and Granny Play Date





We invited Granny to come over and eat dinner with us last week. She came over early and disappeared back into Landyn's bedroom with Landyn. When I went back to check on them, this is what I found! Granny sitting in Landyn's little craft table chairs playing with her doll house. Keep in mind, Granny is 92!!! They also played doctor and beauty shop!! I am so glad that Landyn is able to make these special memories with Granny. She will treasure them always!!

Summer Sunday afternoon out on the Farm







My kiddos LOVE to be outside and out at my parents' house!! There is nothing better than relaxing Sunday afternoons out on the porch or patio. These are some fun shots we took last weekend. Brooks is trying to beat the heat. Landyn and Biscuit were out on the tractor. I love the one of Brooks looking at us through the glass door and looking at Brea. He is so precious! Always on the go now!!
