My baby is 8 months old. How time goes so fast! Already pulling himself up and trying to walk. He has five teeth and bites me and thinks it's funny! With me still breastfeeding, not so much! How can you get mad at that grin! Jakie you are growing up so fast I'm trying to hold on to every moment, but you won't let me! so different with your first. Very mile stone was cherished and documented, but with your second the next thing you know they are on to something else! Please slow down!

In August My Uncle Buzz was in town and we went to the Powell Gardens to the see the Butterfly garden. We went with My dad, Pam, Buzz and Aunt Mary. It was a lot of fun and great activities for children. When we had gotten there it was about nine and already hot, so Daivd didn't hesitate to run through the fountain! It is truely beautiful and if you haven't been you should check it out.

Here are Jake's 6 month pictures that I just received from the studio. Better late than never. Hopeful I can get his 9 month pics back before christmas!

The Boys and I went on a wagon ride around the neighborhood. David wanted to take his turn and pull Jakie! Jake seemed to really enjoy the ride. Sorry the top picture is so small. If I make it any bigger it distorts the photo!

Brotherly Love!

Zonkers!

We went to Zonkers with Rachel's boys Noah, Eli and Lucas. David a ball! He loved the train in which he rode about ten plus times . He rode the roller coaster with Noah and the whole time his head was down, looking unsure about the ride! But that night at home all he could talk about is going back to Zonkers to ride the roller coaster and train!

Over Labor day weekend, my sorority girls got together and spent some time on the lake with lots of margaritas and beer! We stayed at my friend, Leeper's lake house. We took the boat out a few times and took the margarita machine with us. Conveniently it plugged into the boats outlet! We docked and visited some of her relatives and took a swim. Sheri wouldn't get in the water but Dani Leeper and I jumped in with a noodle and a beer! After a bit it was time to head home for dinner, yet the boats battery was dead from the marg machine! As we started to drift from the deck with no battery or oars, Jacques, Leepie's husband dove in took hold of the boat and swam us into shore! Unfortunately I had to head to back on Sunday only spending one night at the lake. But I'm glad I was able relax, even if it was only for a day!
