Exciting Weekend!

So this past weekend was an exciting weekend for the whole family. My parents joined us for Memorial Day Weekend.... or should I say Micah's Birthday Party Weekend? I know, I know, his birthday isn't until June 7th, but this was the best time to have his party! Saturday, first thing was first, our big boy needed a hair cut, BAD! Thankfully Kristy could work him on for us. He was such a good boy and stayed pretty still/calm for her.

The before and after pictures are posted above, she had to take a lot off, that really surprised me. As you can see he enjoyed looking at himself in all the mirrors she had around. Thankfully, she knew what she was doing because I had no clue what I wanted!

Sunday was the big day for our little guy. We had his party at Independence High School, which worked out great for everyone! We had hot dogs, chips, potato salad, fruit salad (which was amazing, Thanks Mom!) and of course CAKE!!!

As you see, Micah really enjoy the cake. He wasn't about to share it with anyone, good thing we bought a cookie cake, huh?

Luckily, he didn't get any in his hair. It mostly stayed in his mouth or around his legs. I wasn't prepared to get cake out of hair that day. All in all it was a great weekend, but how can it go bad when you have family and friends around you, right?

Too cute!

Cathching Up.....

Well it has been awhile so I thought I would catch everything, and everybody up!

Micah is loving daycare, we believe. Every morning Scott takes him and drops him off. As I am getting him dressed and his bag packed he starts to wave and say 'bye bye bye dadda dadda dadda'. It's like he knows that he is going to go byebye with Scott. Scott tells me that when he gets him out of his car seat, he is all smiles, talking and laughing, ready for the fun filled day ahead. He leans right into the ladies arms, whichever is first there to get him! This makes all of us feel so much better, knowing that he loves to go there.

Micah is pulling up and walking along the couch, well anything he can hold onto really. Hopefully it won't be too long and we will have a walker on our hands. Am I ready for that? I'm not so sure. He is already all over the floor chasing after Smokey & Bandit, I can't imagine when he starts to walk/run after them.


Baseball is still going strong. Indy made it to Regionals and plays Wyoming East on the 26th! It's been a long season but hopefully they can make it back to States!


I'm enjoying photography more and more! I was lucky enough to have a few friends let me take their Engagement Pictures at Little Beaver State Park! Also, her sister wanted me to take a few of her to put in her graduation announcements, I hope she liked them.





Anyway, Micah is going to be a year old in a few weeks but we decided to do his party next weekend over Memorial Day weekend since it's a long weekend and my parents will be in town also! This should be a ton of fun! Pictures to come, you know it.

Crawling, Playing, Standing..... O My!!!

So we have been a busy little family. Baseball is starting to pick up so Scott has been a busy guy with that. Games or practice every night of the week including Saturday so Micah and myself have been getting some great quality time together!

I am so happy spring has sprung, because I am in full picture taking mood! From Micah, to Scott, to Flower, Trees, and the animals, anything is a good photo opp, hehe. This past weekend it was beautiful so Micah, Bandit and I went to Joys for the day. We stayed outside the whole time and it was so nice! From grilling out, to the dogs fighting (long story) and watching Micah just look in awe over everything new he came into contract with, I was just so happy.

We took Emily and Micah for a wagon ride, which they both enjoyed (Micah more than Em). I also saw some tulips in Joy's neighbors yard, so I couldn't pass it up, I had to get some pictures, they were just beautiful. I also couldn't pass up taking some pictures of Joy's flowers.

Micah is crawling all over the place, he will go a few on all fours, but then he realizes he will go faster on his tummy, so he flops down and takes off again. He is pulling up on everything like crazy, he loves to get on his knees, and ever so often will get all the way up to his feet. I guess it won't be long and he will start to move those feet, huh? Oh please help me when he does!

Here is a picture of Micah favorite place in the house! Think he is going to take after his mom? Bless this child.

Sunday Outing....

This past Sunday was a beautiful Spring day. We decided to take Micah out and to Grandview Park. Well apparently everyone in the Beckley area decided to do the same exact thing with their children. When we arrived you could barely find a parking spot. We talked it over and decided not to stay there. As we talked we tried to think of places in WV that we had not photographed yet. Scott mentioned Bluestone Dam and Sandstone Falls, so we were off, towards Hinton.

Thankfully there really wasn't anyone at the Dam so I could get some really good pictures without having to fight around people. Also, the falls really weren't that crowded either, just another jewel stuck away in WV!

While walking at the Falls I came across this really neat tree.... people have engraved their names or initials all over it. Neat huh?

On our way home I decided I had better call my Aunt and cousin so we could stop by. She would have killed me if she knew I drive right past her house without stopping, hehe. Micah had a good time watching their dog, Abby, chase the ball.

I was also able to get a few good pictures of Joy's flowers that have sprouted up already! YAY for spring.

I'm horrible......

such a bad blogger. A month? Really? Ok So I will post some pictures and update a little!!

Micah broke through his first two teeth. It seemed like it was 2 in 1 1/2 weeks. I have a feeling he is breaking another one through also. He waits 9 months and then BAM, he is going to do it all at once, poor guy. Also, he is crawling. Well, 'low crawlin' as we call it. He doesn't get up on all 4's but he can get anywhere he wants to on his belly! It's really cute but I'm sure his tummy hurts from it, mine would.

Micah is 9 months old. Can you believe it? I know I can't. In less than 3 months he is going to be a year old, and I'm just not ready for that. These past 9 months have just flown by. Someone stop it, please!

I started a new job over a month ago, and I love it. I stay busy 100% of the time, which is really nice. So far I have learned a lot but I have so much more to learn, I don't know how I'm going to ever learn it all!

ok, to fill you in on this picture. Day Care made this hat for St. Patty's day. We put it on Micah's head, and as you can see, it didn't even come close to fitting! haha

So I promise not to wait a month to update again. Hope everyone else is doing just as good as we are.
