Luke's First Trip to Arkansas

We took Luke to Arkansas a few weekends ago to meet the great grandparents for the first time. Doug's grandmothers live in Arkansas and they had not seen Luke since he was born. We took a weekend trip there just so they could love on our 2nd addition to the family. We enjoyed visiting with the family and letting them love on our 2 boys.

Will's First Week of School

Will began a new school year at FBC Tupelo. He moved up to the 3 year old class this week at daycare. He has a new class, new teachers, and new friends. We are looking forward to an exciting new year of learning with Mrs. Emerald.

Happy 3 Months Luke

Luke is 3 months. Really?!? He's growing and changing every day. At daycare, the ladies love him and says he only cries when he's hungry. He's such a good baby and we are absolutely in love with Luke.

Luke is either loosing his hair or it is getting lighter. He absolutely loves his older brother, Will. When Will is not at home it's like Luke has lost his best friend. We will see how long this lasts!! 

Luke wears a size 2 diaper. He can wear 6 month clothes mostly because they fit him better in the legs. He has found his tongue. He loves to ooh and aah at you and smile too. He is taking a 7 ounce bottle now and still sleeping through the night. He hates being cold after bath time. He is also trying to roll over. 

We are so happy to have Luke in our lives and he is such a great addition to our family. God knew what he was doing by adding this sweet precious boy to our family. 

Happy 11 years

Doug and I celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary together on July 31st. He is my rock and best friend and pretty much knows me more than I know myself. He can always tell me what I'm thinking or going to say. He can tell if something's bothering me or if someone has made me upset. He makes me a better person and mom to our boys. I'm so glad God put him in my life because I couldn't be any happier than I am right now.

We celebrated in Oxford Friday night at Oxford Grillhouse and then ice cream at Ya Ya's. We spent the night at my parents condo and slept in till 9am. We had a late breakfast/brunch at Big Bad Breakfast in Oxford. I went to go get a pedicure and shop around a bit. It was a wonderful time in Oxford, which is our favorite place to go besides the beach. 

We are so thankful for grandparents who gave us the night off to keep our kids so we could get away. We were just told to be back by 3pm and we were. 

Thankful for 11 years down and many many more to go. Life is good!!
