Happy 4th Birthday Faith!

We celebrated Faith's birthday at a horse farm in Irmo.  Coleman loved the horses from a distant, and would ride with mommy holding his hand. Thanks for including us Faith!

Hampton's Baptism

Today Hampton was baptized at our church.  He wore the same gown as Coleman wore.   He had 24 people there to witness this glorious baptism.  Dr. Weldon baptized him, and Hampton did not even cry when the water touched his head.  After the baptism, Diimler's catered a lunch at our house.  What a beautiful day for our family!

Hampton is Three Months Old!

It is so hard to believe that our little guy is already 3 months old.  Time is really flying, and it makes me sad!  He really loves to sit in the Bumbo seat.  He spends a lot of his time grabbing for items to put in his mouth.  He is such a sweet baby!

Happy 4th Birthday Milling!

Coleman and David joined Milling for his 4th birthday, which was a karate birthday.  Each kid was given a white belt and nunchucks.  Coleman had a blast learning karate!

Happy 1st Birthday Sara!

Hampton and I went to to Sara's house to celebrate her first birthday.  Coleman and David joined us eventually, but Coleman was at another birthday party.  Sara had a great birthday, and Hampton smiled at her a few times!

Congratulations Amanda and Hal!

On Saturday, we drove to Clemson for Amanda (Temple's sister) and Hal's wedding.  They got married at Clemson United Methodist and the reception was at the Clemson Hotel and Madren Center.  Both boys sat through the entire wedding, with no problem.  At the reception, Coleman danced the night away, and had fun playing with Reese.  Thanks for including us Amanda and Hal!

Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter!  We started the morning by looking to see what the Easter Bunny brought to the boys.  We then went to church, and experienced an amazing service.  Hampton sat through the whole service!  After church, we ate lunch at the Capital City Club.  At the Capital City Club we saw the Easter Bunny, ate a buffet lunch and went on an Easter egg hunt.  We finished the day at David's parent's house with dinner and an egg hunt.

Dying Easter Eggs

While Hampton and David took a nap, Coleman and I dyed eggs.  We had six different colors and they were purple, pink, yellow, orange, green and red.  Coleman had a blast putting the eggs into each bowl.  You could really tell by his colored hands!  After the eggs dried, Coleman decorated some of the eggs by putting stickers on them.

The Easter Egg Hunt

Our church had the annual Easter egg hunt on Saturday.  This was very neat because children younger than 24 months hunted inside, children 2 - Kindergarten hunted in the playground area and the older children hunted to the side of the church.  Coleman helped Hampton hunt for Easter eggs, and then Coleman went for his hunt.  He was in search for the golden egg.  We did not find the golden egg, but we had a lot of fun in the process!

Happy 4th Birthday Charles!

We celebrated Charles' 4th birthday with him at The Little Gym last Sunday.  It is hard to believe that there were so many little boys there!  Thanks for inviting us!

Happy Birthday Andrew!

We attended Andrew's birthday party last weekend.  Andrew is in Coleman's class at school.  Margaret, Andrew's mom did a great job with making a cute cake in the shape of a robot.  Thanks for including us!

Preschool Sunday

My parents, David's mom, Hampton, Coleman and I attended Preschool Sunday at Coleman's school last Sunday.  Coleman did an awesome job singing every song that he had learned.  His favorite was "Deep and Wide."

Hampton is Two Months Old!

It is so hard to believe that Hampton turned 2 months old on April 4.  He smiles and coos a lot, and he does a really good job holding his head up.  It is hard to believe that he is growing up so quickly!

Happy 6 Weeks Birthday

Our sweet little baby is six weeks old!  He already growing so quickly, which makes me so sad.  He started smiling last Tuesday (2/8).  It has been so fun to talk to him now because he coos and smiles.

Happy One Month Birthday Hampton!

Our sweet little baby is one month old!  It is so sad to me that he seems to be growing up so fast!  We had a month checkup today at the doctor, and he is 9 lbs, 12 oz (53%), 20 3/4 inches (22%), and he was 75% for head.

We spent Sunday afternoon at David's parents, and we finally got a picture of the three of us!

Hampton's First Bath

Hampton's umbilical cord fell off, so David and I gave Hampton his first bath.  Hampton cried during his bath, but he was a happy camper afterwards.
