Disney on Ice

We got to go see Disney on Ice. Whit had so much fun. I let him wear his Incredibles costume, he was so excited! When we got there I was a little worried because the lights were off and the music was really loud. He was holding onto me with a death grip and was really scared, but as soon as we found our seats and he saw Nemo it got better. He really loved Mickey Mouse, Woody and Buzz and the Incredibles, but his favorite part was Pinnochio (even though he was scared when the whale came out). He still talks about it, "Remember when the Whale swallowed 'Nochio'." He is so funny when he talks about it.

Yay!!!!

Wow, it has been too long! My computer was broken for sooo long but we finally got a new one. Hopefully now I can get you all caught up on what has been going on for the last few months. It might just have to be a few long nights... But here are a few to enjoy for now!

Another Campout

While the weather was still warm over Labor Day weekend we were able to go camping with some friends. The kids loved it even though none of us really slept too well!

We went camping at Lake Anna, and we spent a little bit of time on the beach.

Did a little bit of hiking or maybe you could call it a nature walk.
The kids really loved playing in the tent. That was a good thing because the campsites are full of pebbles and I didn't want Taylor crawling around putting them in her mouth.


But it sure was nice to get back to our own beds. I love story time... as long as Jake is home to join us, it just goes so much smoother.

Twins...?

I am pretty sure they are 2 years apart, but they look like twins to me! They were watching Baby Einsteins and looked so cute so I thought I would take a picture. They both turned and looked at me with the exact same expression. I love it.

Taylor loves her Big Brother so much, she has to show a little affection...
And Whit instinctively grabs her leg.

But of course she loves him anyway.

Usually it is the other way around, Whit is the one grabbing and wrestling her to the floor!

Taylor's Milestones

Taylor is so much fun. I really love her age right now. She is getting to be very active and so much fun to play with.

July 20- Taylor rolls and scoots just about anywhere she wants to go.

July 24 - Taylor is getting up on her hands and knees now and rocks back and forth.

August 8- Yay, Taylor can sit up. It makes her so happy to be able to sit. I love her pretty smile.


August 19- Learning to crawl.

School Time?

I think Whit is going to be excited when he is old enough to go to school. Probably because he sees Jake go to school everyday. It is so adorable. He packs his "packpack" (that's how he says it), puts it on, gives us all hugs and kisses and then says, "See ya, I'm going to school!" He opens the door, gets in his little tikes car and pretends to drive to school. I love it, until he realizes that he is actually not going to school with dad.

DC Zoo with Grammy and Grandpa

Wow, where does the time go? We went to the DC Zoo in July with Jake's parents while they were here visiting. It was so much fun to have them!
Whit loved the Elephants, but I could not get him to look at me.
Whit and Taylor with Grammy and Grandpa!

We had a lot of fun with Grandpa and Grandma at the park. I am sure Whit loved Grandpa playing with him.


Uh..Where did the monkey come from?

This is one of my favorite things to watch Whit do because he spins so much and gets so dizzy! Grandpa even spun around with Whit.
