This is what I do all day!

Well, almost all day! I told Stephen that sometimes I get the urge to just grab him up out of his crib when he is sleeping and squeeze him (not that I have ever done it). I guess that is the mommy in me? Nannie actually said she gets that urge too, so maybe I am not crazy (or maybe we both are?!)

Henderson and Emmett


Elizabeth and Emmett came into town last week. We were thrilled to see them! Mom and I were able to have lunch with Elizabeth and Mrs. Street. Emmett came over to see us for a little while. He is such a sweet, adorable boy! He is already 6 months old and I can't believe it. He is sitting up and eating baby food now. Time really does go by too fast. These boys are going to be best buddies - just like their daddies.

Update...

Henderson slept from 7 pm to 7 am! We are thrilled. We just hope this continues!

Recent Happenings...

As you can probably tell, our sweet baby is growing so fast. He is a true delight everyday and we just LOVE to see what the day, week, month will bring in terms of his development! Henderson has started a lot of "talking" lately. He enjoys having "conversations" with you and especially his buddy the octopus on his baby playmat. He smiles all of the time although it is really hard to catch it with the camera. If you pull out the camera he gets this really serious look on his face. I have to try and hold the camera down and then quickly click it if I want to catch those dimples! He has been sleeping well for many weeks now and just last night had his best sleep yet (slept from 7 pm-6am!!) I have started back to work 2 days a week. It is so hard to leave him even for a minute because I don't want to miss anything! I truly rest easy though because Stephen's mom "Honey" keeps him for us. I just thank God everyday that she offered to help us and make my transition back to work easier. THANK YOU HONEY! WE LOVE YOU!!

Henderson is all dressed up and ready to go to Sunday school!

Nannie and Granddaddy came into town on Tuesday night. They helped us out so much this week. While Honey and Grandpa were out of town, my parents kept Henderson while I worked. They were also on hand Friday night so Stephen and I could go to a friend's wedding shower. THANK YOU NANNIE and GRANDDADDY! WE LOVE YOU!

Aunt Sharon, Sarah Kate, and Coleman came by to visit with Henderson.


Coleman was so cute with Henderson. He loved to hold his cousin! I love this picture!


Henderson loves his monogrammed onesie from Meredith and Bert! SO CUTE!

First Playdate

Last Friday, Henderson got together with a couple of his friends. Although no true "playing" goes on just yet, it was certainly a good time for the mommies. We are hoping to start getting together more often!

Labor Day Weekend

Stephen, Henderson, Hendrix, and I went to West Point over the long weekend to visit my family. We had a great time as usual!
We are always happy to see Frank - even when he is wearing his Auburn shirt!
Ashley was able to come over and bring Sydney. Look how cute these 2 are napping together!

Look at this sweet little girl! She was in the best mood after her nap at the Huguley house! She is a week older than Henderson, but he certainly outweighs this dainty gal.


Sydney let Henderson play with her toy. He only wanted to know if milk came out of it.



Henderson is always glad to see his Aunt Jenna!
My dad also took some great photos so check them out under "Graddaddy's Pictures"
Henderson went to the doctor today and weighed in at 14 lbs 9 oz!! He was in the 95 percentile for weight!! He also had to get shots today and I don't know who was more traumatized, him or me!!!





Mary Beth's Fashion Show

Mary Beth put on a wonderful fashion show for everyone! She was an excellent model! I think these pictures speak for themselves!


Jack was the show's DJ

She had multiple wardrobe changes!


Also for each outfit, she had a new "stage name." (Brenda, Chloe, Erica...)

Henderson, Please stop growing so fast!

Henderson turned 8 weeks old yesterday. I truly can't believe it. He is such a wonderful baby and Stephen and I can't imagine life without our "Bundle". He has gotten really good at holding his head up, focusing on objects, smiling, and sleeping at night (will usually give us a good 5 hr. stretch each night). He goes next week for a check-up and I will be excited to see how much he weighs. (This boy is HUGE!)










Time Already Flies...

HOW CAN MY SWEET BABY GO FROM THIS...
TO THIS? IN JUST 8 SHORT WEEKS???!
