In our attempt to get a good pic for the birth announcement we got some good shots of the boys together!


Sitting in the swing


Before the Clemson/Citadel football game. A house divided with Hayden and Heath in Citadel shirts and Heather and John in Clemson shirts. Hayden wanted John in his Citadel shirt too but I got to him first! And thankfully Clemson redeemed themselves from the pitiful game against Alabama! Go Tigers!!

Week 5

Wow, John is still growing and doing new things weekly. This week his neck is getting even stronger and he finally starting smiling a little. This was exciting for us. Finally we are getting something back. He's making cute noises and he does something that sounds like a sigh. It's usually when he wants something and we aren't getting it fast enough. It's pretty funny!

Hayden is doing good. Last week they had a Freedom Walk for Patroit Day(Sept. 11) at school. They taught the kids the National Anthem and we were singing that night before bed. Hayden kept saying Hosea. So I asked him what he was talking about. He said "Hosea can you see." So we had a good laugh over that. So of course since I laughed, he continues to do it! Pretty funny!

That's about it for now. Just trying to keep up with both kids while Heath is out of town. It's been a little crazy but we're still here. He'll thankfully be home soon!

Sleepy baby
Mommy and her boys ready for football!

Looking up at Daddy

One Month Old

Wow, John's a month old now. Time is flying. He is doing good, working on holding his head up and trying to move. He likes to be outside and he likes riding in the car. We are still trying to figure out a schedule but most days we do okay. He's also gaining weight. I took him yesterday and he weighed 10lbs. Two weeks ago he was only around 8 and a half lbs. He's eating good.
Hayden is enjoying school and he's learning a lot. He especially likes art, music, P.E. and the library, where he can check out a book each week. I'm including some pics from the last week or so. We took a picture with our Clemson hats on before the game last Saturday which was fun. John's is a little big and he liked staring at the orange bill. We tried to cheer the Tigers on but it didn't help! Hopefully this week will be better. But we'll be a house divided with Clemson playing The Citadel. Hayden says he's pulling for The Citadel. We'll have to see about that! I'll post more later!
