Goofin off!

So lucky to be able to play with my little man all day! 

We are so incredibly blessed!

Love this...he's about to tumble backwards b/c Angler is taking the toy out of his hand!

Hello Mr. Otis

Stay posted for cute farms pics next week...we are headed to Me-Maw and Papa's this evening....oh and we're having Sweet Potato Casserole, Chicken Casserole, Asparagus Casserole and other veggies for dinner tonight....mmmm! Oh and Cole will get to try Sweatmans BBQ for the first time this weekend....delish!



ONE already!

We are still digesting the fact that Cole is one!  We had such a nice little birthday party and had our dearest family and friends in attendance.  Cole got so many cool new toys and clothes...and there were balloons and CAKE...the cutest cake in the world...made by our very talented friend, Anne Toole! 

FISH, FISH, FISH...we love FISH!

This is as creative as mom gets...

Happy Birthday To You...



Our smallest guest...sweet Harbor Simpson...Shay and Robert are such proud parents...as they should be!



Congrats to the Costanzo's

This past weekend we flew to Cleveland for our friends, Tommy and Emily's wedding...everything went off without a hitch and the bride and groom looked fabulous and were so in love.  We are so excited for them and what the future holds! 

Here are a few pics from the weekend...oh, and...we survived 4 nights away from the little man(the longest stretch mommy has ever gone).

Monday Beach Day

We packed up and headed out to Sullivans Island today...the beach was fabulous...no crowds and the weather was perfect!  Cole LOVED it!  He only ate one little handful of sand, which wasn't bad considering how much I anticipated him to eat.  He crawled around and headed straight for the ocean...no fear!  Here are a few pics from our day.



Cole needs sunglasses...if only he'd keep them on.




This sweet man likes to grab a hold of things and shake them...here he is testing out the sturdiness of the BOB! His face lights up when he shakes things...so proud of himself!




Double Trouble :)



...and he's off!





This is after tasting the sand...haha...guess it wasn't yummy enough to try again...but fun to play in!



Drying off the beach bum and headed home...



September Shananigans

Our little man is getting so big and brave.  He has been taking 6-8 steps, but walked across the den tonight(which isn't huge, but I counted...and it was 15steps)!!!  His 1st birthday is only 2 weeks away-unbelievable!

"Camera already mom...geez, I just woke up."

Sporting his Karate Kid throw back shirt...WAX ON WAX OFF!!!

Peeking around the dining room table...love this face!!!

Silly Boys

ROLL TIDE...at Mellow Mushroom watching Bama beat Penn State!  Cole's got on his game face!

We have watched a lot of the 9/11 coverage today and are literally sick to our stomach...what a tragic day, but one that our nation must be reminded of....May God Bless our GREAT Nation!
