Life's a Beach...

Thanks Ya-Ya for a wonderful beach trip!!
We LOVED the pool!!!
He's not really C-R-A-B-Y! Falling asleep at dinner... nightly occurrence!
Daddy and baby looking at boats...
Granddaddy (York's GREAT grandad) hanging out at the condo.
Sweet Cheeks!
Drying off after a hard day at the pool!
Loving some pool action!
Asleep with Skip on the balcony!
Something about the beach just makes you sleepy...Hanging on to the umbrella...
Yes... we ate Mexican at the beach!
(he sat in a booster seat instead of the high chair.. big man!)
Swimming with Mommy...We had the best time at the beach! Wesley and his father went to Fort Morgan to fish for the weekend SO York and I decided to take Ya-Ya (Janey) and Mimi & Grandaddy York (York's great grandmother/great grandad) to Orange Beach. We had so much fun together. The weather was beautiful and York was a little angel. We had wonderful food and fellowship. We really missed Daddy though... it was the longest amount of time we have been without him! We were glad to get home to him yesterday! COMING SOON...York has begun drinking out of a sippy cup, standing in his bed, saying Bye-Bye, and riding in the big boy grocery carts... I will post these new milestones in pictures sometime this week! Hope everyone is enjoying their last couple of weeks before school starts again...



"Bye-Bye" from York!

Your my Blue Sky... Your my Sunny Day!

This is so funny...
You can really see those front 2 teethies!My sweet boy! My 2 boys...
Goggie, Caroline, and York
He LOVES outside...
Taking a break from "crawling" to watch TV... like father like son!
He almost has it!
On the road again... he lives in the BOB!
My sweet baby will be 7 months old on Friday... I can't believe it! It seems like yesterday we were nursing a tiny 4 pound miracle. Now he INHALES baby food in record time... as if he will never eat another meal. He is such a happy baby and a joy to be around. I know I have said it a million times but we are so incredibly blessed. I have prayed for this child from the moment I found out we were pregnant. I continue to pray that he will find true happiness in life and he will learn from the bad times and appreciate the good that much more... that he will welcome our Lord into his heart and form the most important relationship and bond he will ever make... that he will love and treat everyone equally... that he will spend time with his family (even when he wants to be elsewhere) because they are his biggest fans... that he will find a soul mate that loves him unconditionally and shares his views and beliefs...and most importantly that he will find his place in this world and use his talents for the glory of our Savior. York has filled our hearts with so much joy and immense love. I completely fall apart when I see my sweet husband hold him so delicately, talk like only a daddy can to him, or pray over his bed as he falls asleep. I fall in love with Wes more and more each day. Wes and York... you are "my blue sky and my sunny day"... I love my boys! (Shug too)

This and That and a new BFF!!

Below are pictures of the Proofs that we had made a week ago. A good and very talented friend of Wesley's mom (Ya-Ya) took these at her Studio in Pelham. They turned out truly amazing and here are some of my favorites... REMEMBER they are pictures of pictures!!! NOT THE BEST QUALITY...
Will he kill me for this in 18 years?... Do I see high school year book pic?Sorry the flash as in the way....

Chewing his hands...Love that angelic face...
Sticking that butt in the air
We had a really good time taking those and are happy that they turned out well. Mr. York was done posing 45 minutes into the "shoot". He hung in there for around 2 hours and I couldn't have been more proud of that precious baby!! We have close to 30 proofs to choose from and I think that each one is AMAZING. It will be very hard to pick from them... Her specialty is Black and White, Sepia, and hand tinting. Her hand tinting is to DIE for... she tints the cheeks, lips, eyes, and skin... GORGEOUS! I will keep you posted on the ones we choose and the finished product!
NEW BFF's??
I met Kelly (Turner's mom) through an exercise group and it turned out that she graduated with Wesley. SMALL WORLD! We have enjoyed getting to know one another and York and Turner have become fast friends! Turner is 12 days older than York and is such a sweetheart. We took them to the pool Wednesday and they had a blast. **NOTE: Excuse their RED NECK attire because it was so hot! T-Shirts + Diaper = Quintessential Red Neck Gear...
"Hey friend!"
"Hey mommies"
Isn't that the cutest thing you have EVER seen?
Hanging at the pool...
Yes you are seeing double... Kelly and I have the EXACT same stroller...
It gets weirder...
We have the EXACT same baby bedding too!!
We didn't even know each other when buying these things...
Also our diaper bags are same color and style!
Pure CRAZINESS!sweet babies...
We headed to the lake for Father's Day a couple of weekends ago and York was able to get some good loving from Aunt Judy...
and Mimi Perry....
York and Skip...
He sits very well now...

In the pool at Ya-Ya's...

I have 2 teeth now...


Often God's biggest gifts to us come in the littlest of packages... our children.
