Happy 6th Birthday to Brayden!

Today Jayden went to his friend's birthday party and all of the kids had a lot of fun. Happy 6th birthday Brayden!

Bumper cars with toddlers is an interesting thing to observe.

Celebrating 4 Years

Today Jayden turned 4! It is so hard to believe that we have already been blessed to have him in our lives for four years!

We had a swim party for him at the YMCA. It was a 100 degrees the day before and windy and cold on his birthday. Fun was still had by all and he said it was his best birthday ever so that is all that matters.

Jayden and Abby got in the water despite the cold weather.

Hadley chowing down.

She hasn't had enough obviously!

After the party we opened a few more presents at home. He got his binoculars he had asked for. He was very excited!

His friend R.J. came over for the rest of the day and the boys took Jaydens boats over to the lake for awhile.

Go Gamecocks!

We are officially into College Football season and our house is dressed in all Gamecock gear on Saturdays. Its impossible to get a picture of all three kids together but here is Jayden and Hadley posing.

We Love Ms. Jane!

Ms. Jane joined our family in January as our sitter. We love her and feel so blessed to have her as part of our family. Today she surprised Jayden with his first birthday present. Can you tell that he is excited?

Dottie's Baby Shower

Today Momma and Hadley went to a baby shower for one of Momma's oldest friends, Dottie.

First Day of Four Year Old Preschool

Jayden is returning to GC Park District Preschool. Momma took off today to take him on his first day again. He is getting so big!

Reunited with a few friends and some new faces. Most importantly his buddy R.J. is back again!

Hamming it Up Before Bed

Introducing Rocky, aka Hadley Glynn. This girl falls and hits her head on more things but today she officially received her first major shiner.

Although she is still being her silly self.

Daddy thinks he can rest before bedtime. Yeah, right!

Sisters Getaway

Momma and Aunt Bear had a Sisters Getaway in Longboat Key, FL (near Sarasota) for a few days this week. It was a lot of fun and this Momma needed a kid-free few days.





Aunt Bear getting ready for our kayak tour. We saw a manatee and dolphins.

Kayaking through the mangrove tunnels. So cool!

One of the many, many mansions in Longboat Key. Notice the contraption on the side that we decided was a tunnel slide going from the top of the house to the bottom. That's what we need!

We decided to go parasailing one afternoon. On the boat getting ready to get strapped up.

Up we go!

Getting dipped despite Aunt Bear not wanting to be dipped!

After eating dinner by the water.
