Georgia Aquarium

We had a spur of the moment trip to Atlanta on Sunday and Monday so while we were there we went to the Georgia Aquarium. We had a great time and Emerson and Beckett really enjoyed it. Here are a few highlights:

Lion Fish

Beckett loved looking at everything. There was so much to see!

I love his face in the reflection. I'm pretty sure he's laughing, I don't remember him crying.

Whale Shark

I think she likes it.

Emerson's First Soccer Game

Emerson had her first soccer game this past Saturday. I think she had fun. She is, by far, the smallest on her team so she struggles to keep up. Hopefully that will just be motivation to work harder. Matt is doing a great job coaching and she has already learned a lot!

Beckett is getting bigger. Nope, not walking yet.

Grand D came to watch and ended up holding Beckett the whole game.

The best part of the game, the snacks!

Thanksgiving 2010

I'm late to post these so I'm going to be lazy and post a link. We had a great trip to Tennessee and are so glad that is where we get to visit Mom & Dad now!

9 Months

It's so hard to believe my big boy is 9 months old already! I can already see that he is going to be eating us out of house and home! He definitely loves his food. He makes a Mmmm sound with EVERY bite!
He seems to have no interest in crawling. Emerson never did crawl but I thought sure he would. There's still time though. Right now he's content to roll around.
We've had a lot of fun this month. Here are some of the highlights:

I had dressed Beckett for the day and Emerson had to put on these pajamas to match him.

The one thing Emerson has talked about since I was pregnant is taking a bath with Beckett. She finally got to splash with him the other day and she loved it! I'm pretty sure he did too.

We participated in the Light the Night walk with Westwood. We enjoyed being outside and especially supporting such a great cause that means so much to so many people we know.

Emerson enjoying her balloon.

Beatriz loves this little man.

She got a little carried away with the kisses!

We went to see Disney on Ice - Princess Wishes with Sandi, Katie Beth, Jamie & Brooklyn. Emerson had a blast!

While Greg, Sandi, Matt & I went to the Catalyst conference, Mason, Katie Beth and Emerson stayed with Papa & Nana at their new house. They got to do a lot of fun things like hike in the mountains and go to a really neat festival.

Throwing rocks in the stream.

Grand "D" (JoEtte) took us to Mark's Melon Patch. We had a lot of fun walking through the sunflowers, pumpkins and beautiful flowers. Thanks Grand D!

Isn't God's creation beautiful!

Emerson feeding Beckett

Emerson is such a great big sister. She loves her brother and is always wanting to take care of him. The other day, out of the blue, she asked if she could feed Beckett. So, I found something that wouldn't fall off of the spoon too easily and she went to town. She had only fed him one or two times before this. I think she did a great job! She going to be a great mother!

Eight Months Old!

Seven Months Old!

It's so hard to believe that Beckett is already 7 month old already! He got his first tooth today and is growing so fast.
