*We have been having such a fun summer so far. I really thought I'd miss teaching Mother's Day Out, but I am having more fun just staying home with my little man everyday! I like having my week ahead be a blank slate to plan and space things out. The first week of summer was on the trip with Elizabeth, and we will be gone most of June and July, so we packed in lots of fun this past week. James got to play with buddies 4 out of 5 days last week (while I enjoyed getting to chat with their mommies). James and I made some kind of outing (light and easy), just the two of us, every day too! I think I'm REALLY enjoying having some of my old energy back! I love the second trimester! My wonderful mother also watched James two nights this week so Josh and I could go to a dinner and a wedding! It's fun to go to a wedding, sit there and hold hands, and watch the cute newlyweds take in their "Big Day".
*Josh and I savored this weekend before the craziness begins. We got up early on Saturday for a good hearty breakfast at Cracker Barrell (James always does well there because of that triangular toy, which is an added bonus), and ran errands for our upcoming trip. We are driving to Atlanta soon, and we finally bit the bullet and bought a portable DVD player for James. I think it'll really help make the road trip much easier. We had a wonderful Father's Day. I feel overwhelmed by God blessing me with first, my dad, who has provided nothing but unconditional love, is always encouraging and supportive, and is just always there for us. Secondly, by my husband. I am so blessed and proud to have Josh to raise our boys with. I truly feel like I hit the jackpot! We had my parents and grandma over for a nice dinner after church (everyone else was out of town), and we all enjoyed celebrating two incredible men!
*I will not be able to update very much over the next few weeks, but I hope everyone has a wonderful start to the summer! Here are some pictures from today. Check my family pictures album to see more pictures throughout the summer!
We could not get a good picture, no matter how hard we tried!

OH MY GOODNESS- James is the most beautiful little boy ever. I know that beautiful isn't supposed to be used for boys- but he IS. I love the new pics at the top of your blog- seriously, have you considered having him be a little model?????
