The zoo in South Carolina

Today was our last day in South Carolina. We had an awesome time at the zoo before the rain came. The kids were so good and we all had a great time!

How many people can say they have fed a giraffe?
Grace's first time milking a cow.


What does an elephant say?
The monkeys were so cool and they were so LOUD. Grace just giggled at them.

The zoo sure can wear you out.

***Make sure you check out the last couple of post. I added more pictures...an ultrasound picture too.

South Carolina

Grace and I went to South Carolina to help out with family and to spend some quality time with Hudson and Aunt KK. It was such a blessing to be there for a few day. We were busy with family but also were able to do a lot of fun stuff!

On the playground

The attempt to take pictures in the leaves.
It was so much easier to take pictures last year when they couldn't walk.


I love this picture with them looking to the side. But if you look at the next picture you will see that they were not posing but looking at something really cool. TV time

Hudson, Katie, Gigi, and Grace

The three great grand kids.
Gigi and Grace playing spending quality time together.

Around the house

One evening Chad was trying to put Grace to bed. Grace is usually a really good sleepier and goes to bed SO easy. On this night every time Chad said it was time to go "night night" Grace would reply, "No Night Night". So Chad sat in the den and watched TV with her for a few minutes and she fell right to sleep. It was really sweet.

We finally learned what a bubble bath is! Grace loves bath time.

It's a .....

After waiting WEEKS to find out the sex of our new baby coming in March, today was the big day. The ultrasound was awesome. Watching it move, kick, throw it's arms around. And we found it that it is a......
STUBBORN child. It would not uncross it's legs but for one second. The tech lady thought it looked like a girl. So for now we are going with girl, but we will go back in two weeks and try again. Good thing Chad is so good with the girls...

Cousin Hudson

On Sunday Grace and Hudson had some time together while a sweet girl from church babysit so we could all go to a wedding. I was able to get a few quick pictures right before we left.

Garage Sale


I have never been much of a garage sale person. But this weekend our neighborhood was having a garage sale so we rode through to see what everyone had. And we found the best $10 a little girl could ask for...

So we have spent an hour straight playing on the slide and taking pictures. Hope you enjoy!








And this is why we purchased the slide...we needed to find something appropriate to climb on.
This a special father/daughter time.

It's beginning to look a lot like...

HALLOWEEN

I have always loved all the different holidays and the changing of seasons. But now with a child I love it even more.



Grace picked out this shirt at Target. I wasn't too thrilled about it, I actually liked one with a pumpkin but it is much cutier on her then I thought. A kiss for the pumpkin.


This morning we colored a pumpkin. (We also colored our hands, and arms, and legs and face.)
