Mama's Girl

My Big Boy

I am so proud of this little guy! Today was his last day of swimming lessons & he jumped off of the diving board ALL BY HIMSELF! A huge accomplishment for a 3 year old!

You might be a redneck if...

. . .Your Dad gives you a shower in the yard

Turning the tables...

or should I say the camera. . .

Derek

This is his swim instructor, Derek. I think they bonded over their hair...

Monday

I couldn't choose one picture today, so here are two, although it was tough to narrow it down to just two!

Lou-Lou & Mary Maddox sharing the love...

Here is "Amy-Lee" holding his breath underwater at swimming lessons - he's such a big boy!!

Drummer Boy

I know this might sound a little braggadocious (if that's even a word), but you should see my boy on the drums!! He sets up his little drum kit, which consists of EVERY drum we have in the house & a sad little cymbal, and plays away! He has been promised a real drum set as soon as he saves up his money. Tonight he & his Dad counted his piggy bank & he is 1/3 of the way there! I think we will begin using this new drum set dream as a behavior tool/threat (bad mommy, bad mommy!)

Friday Nite Jam Session

Baby's got new shoes

I did a session today with a 10 day old baby whose father is a golf nut. Aren't these the cutest little shoes you've every seen?

Wednesday Evening II

Tonight's dinner was at our house, so without further ado I give you. . .

Swimmin'

We went over to Dan & Cherri's tonight for a lovely swim in their saltwater pool, nice. . .

Colorin' fool

She woke up WAAAY to early for me today, this marker gave me a few extra minutes on the couch...

Pickin'

I am finally putting together a picture book of his 2nd year (yes, nearly a 1/2 a year late!) and found this oldie but goodie!

Slidin'

I wish I could take credit for this shot, but it was their Dad's picture...good job honey!

Lead Free

We spent the morning playing with our "lead free" Thomas trains.

Preacher Boy

Mom: "It's time to come & take a nap."

Boy: "Not now Mom, I'm working on my sermon..."

Fourth of July

Watching the annual Fourth of July Parade, a "must see" in our little town. We also enjoyed dipping our toes in the town fountain.

Local, fresh AND organic!

My girl ate 3 ears! She loves her some corn!

Olive You!

Happy Birthday Jack!
