My Gym with our little monkey

While Bowen was at school, I took Caroline to My Gym to play. She absolutely loved it. Caroline was in hog heaven with all of the climbing options the facility provided. I had a hard time keeping up with her. I had to waddle fast!

Time to get messy

If anyone knows Bowen, they know how he is always neat. Mommy knew it was time to break the mold and get Bowen comfortable with getting messy. We broke out the finger paints and he went crazy. He asks to paint every day now. Messy time happens at least once a day:)

While the boys are away....the girls play

I'm still catching up on our blog, so these photos came to us from late August. While Bowen and Wilson are off to school, Caroline has a fun filled morning with Ellie (Wilson's little sister) over to play.

Girls are sooooo easy!!!!!!!!!! (right now)

Going for a stroll...

Taking turns on the swing...

Some water play...

First Day of School photo...

Bowen started 3 year old, 3 day (1/2 day) a week preschool in mid August. This picture pretty much sums up his feelings on the first day of school.

Now, he can't wait to get out of the car when we get into the school parking lot and barely has time to throw me a kiss when he enters the classroom. He loves school! Let me restate that, "WE LOVE SCHOOL"!!!!

Where did August go?

I've been very slack lately in regards to blog entries. Believe me, nothing is slowing down around here EXCEPT ME! Big old prego momma is moving at a snail's pace in the summer heat. I'm 30 weeks and 3 days pregnant. This pregnancy has been physically more challenging as Caroline and Bowen run circles around me. Davis is a mover and shaker just like his brother and sister. He's kicking, rolling, punching,and I believe he thinks my bladder is a mini bounce house. My doctor seems to think we should welcome Davis into the world two weeks early (like Caroline). Week 36 I'll have an ultrasound to see if he a big boy and schedule my induction accordingly.

Okay...what's up you may ask?!?

1. Bowen started school mid-Aug (3 day 3 year old program). He seems to love his teacher (Ms. Tomkins). 16 kids in his class and Bowen is one of 5 boys.
2. Caroline is climbing on EVERYTHING. She is my little stairmaster. If it can be climbed on, she's on top of it.
3. Shoe obsessed! Caroline is crazy about her shoes and at 15 months figured out (on her own) how to put on her sandals and flip flops. Now at 17 months she has figured out which shoes belong to each family member and will bring them to you through out the day.
4. Bowen the painter. Bowen is in to painting. Finger paint, painting with brushes, painting wood, painting paper, etc. Every day we paint while Caroline plays with my costume jewelry.
5. Bye bye Corolla!!!!!!! We sold Brantley's Corolla last weekend and have added a Honda Mini Van to our family. I LOVE MY MINI VAN. I never EVER thought I'd say those words. I think I told Brantley on our first date that I would NEVER EVER drive a mini van. Never say "NEVER":)

I'll post photos of our tots soon! Brantley has been using our computer at night to follow every website, update, newsflash, blog regarding his Florida State Seminoles. I fall asleep early each evening before he's done being a major big fan and never get to the computer to post these days.

Summer Days in Crescent Beach

Last weekend we traveled to Crescent Beach to visit Brantley's cousin and her family. We had such a wonderful time. Bowen LOVED his cousins. Dillon is 10 and Meagan is 7. Meagan was a great baby watcher of Caroline and Dillon turned out to be a fishing buddy for Bowen. We enjoyed the beach and pool time with family:)




Bowen goes fishing with his cousins and Brantley. He catches his first fish!!!

Davis 26 week 4D Ultrasound

Last Friday we went for a 4D Ultrasound to see Davis growing strong. He's amazing and already takes our breath away!!!!
