Recent happenings


Well I've been terrible about keeping up with the blog, but here's the run down of our late summer...

We had lots of visitors in June & July - mostly by the grandparents but also Josh's Aunt Pam & Uncle Andy and my Aunt Jan & Uncle Mike. I think Jackson has spent half of his life at the beach so far, between going at least once a week here at home (plus extra visits with guests) and then spending two weeks on the Gulf Coast in August, he is quite the beach baby. But it fits him, he continues to be a very laid back kid.



Caroline loved her month of preschool (a warm-up for the fall) and then had a blast spending two weeks at the beach. We had a great week in Destin with the McDowell's - having all the kids together was a hoot!



Our week with my family in Seagrove was really special too. I can't remember the last time I've seen my parents and sister at the same time since she's lived overseas. I wish her husband, Steve, could have been able to be there, but we had margaritas in his honor everyday!



Jackson continues to thrive. He rolled over for the first time at the beach with my parents and has also started eating some solid food which is a big hit. I won't have his 4 month stats until his appointment Sept. 10th, but he's been pretty much in the 95th percentile for height and weight so far.



We are off to San Francisco for an extended Labor Day weekend soon - Josh will attend the hand surgery meeting and then we'll visit with my family in the bay area with Mom for a few extra days. Should be fun!
