3 Months Old!!

 Look who is 3 months old!! That's right! My sweet little boy is growing up way too fast!! Andrew did not have a doctor's appointment this month so I'm not too sure how much he has grown, but I do know he's growing! This month Andrew has learned how to hold his head up when being held, grip toys and blankets,  and coo at anyone smiling at him. He is learning how to laugh when tickled and roll over! He can get half way over, but still not sure what to do with his arms. He is really beginning to make different facial expressions which we love to witness!! Papa loved that he wore tennis shoes for the first time this last month! He thought it made him look too big! :) Andrew is still doing great during the night! He has his night feeding around 9 or 9:30, falls asleep after eating and sleeps straight till 7:00 am the next morning! (yay for Mommy!) He is eating every 3-3.5 hours during the day. It has been pure joy to watch him grow and develop! We can't wait to see what God has in store next month!

 Andrew learning to stick out his tongue!

 Loving bath time!!

 I could stare at this face forever!

 Yay for roadtrips! On our way to see our AR family!

 As aunt Nenna would say... "automatic teeth clinch!" :)

 Taking a break during our shopping day!

 Sweet dreams! :)

 First time in his baby carrier! He loves this thing... or maybe he just loves being stuck to mommy! :)

 Talking to Gran!

 Game face! Go Jackets!!

 Learning how to serve early!! Andrew's having fun on his blanket while Mommy and Daddy perform a puppet show during Inner City night at church!

Titans and Zebras

David won some Titan's tickets in a drawing at work, so we packed up our things and headed out to the game! We had amazing weather and one happy little boy! David carried Andrew in his Baby Bjorn to and from the game. Andrew loved riding with his daddy! We thought we would have seats way up high where we would feel the cool breeze; However, we ended up with great tickets where we were very close to the field without the breeze. We did not anticipate the warm temperatures. (hence the scarf and jacket) So, we stayed for about an hour enjoying time as a family. We had a great day together!

Headed to the game! Andrew was asleep at this point!

View from our seats!

Andrew still sleeping! :)

Love my family!!

Andrew chillin'!

Downtown Nashville! We just love that we live here!


The next day, we joined Beth, Adley and Tatum at the zoo! I was so excited to take Andrew for the first time! Nashville has a great zoo! It was such a gorgeous fall day! All three kiddos were perfect!! It was so fun to watch Adley and Tatum interact with all the animals. Andrew enjoyed watching all the people walk by! haha Maybe one day he'll notice the animals! :)

The two moms with their kiddos!! 

Who I get to spend the majority of my days with!! I'm so lucky!!

Always great to be back in Arkansas!!


Proverbs 17:6 Children's children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.


This last weekend, Gran, Papa, David, Andrew and I headed out to AR to visit our sweet family and friends! I cannot even express how thankful I am for these people in my life. God has blessed me with such a wonderful family. :)

When we realized we had one weekend in September that we could all go, we jumped at the chance! We couldn't wait to see Aunt Nenna's new apartment, visit with our 14 month old, WALKING niece and nephew and enjoy time with our AR family and friends! Once again, Andrew was a champ in the car during our 5.5 hour drive! I'll let the remaining pictures tell the story about our weekend!

 As you can tell, we had a lot of snuggle time on this rainy, football Saturday!! It was such a great day!

 On Sunday, we all headed to church. As my dad always says, how wonderful it is to worship together as a family! 
After church, it didn't take long for Griffin to find a ball to play with!

 Bailey Jane still trying to figure out this walking thing! :)

 Love these two so much!

One could never put a price on time spent with family! What a wonderful weekend!
