Vacation in Gulf Shores--Ft.Morgan

We took a family vacation to Ft.Morgan Sept 4-9..We had a wonderful relaxing time..Dr. Van's house is beautiful...Nana, Popa, and Uncle Jody joined us too....after fun in the sun, naps in the hammock, food at LuLu's, Lamberts, and the Original Oyster House, shopping and more.....It was hard to return to reality..

GO USM!

Brad and I went to a USM game in September...The 1997-1998 Eagle team was honored for winning the Liberty Bowl and got to go on the field. Brad was a trainer and was invited to attend...It was a lot of fun but it rained the first half! THe Eagles did win the game!

A Visit From The Tooth Fairy!

Makayla had some dental work done in August which resulted in getting a tooth pulled..It's a long story...We took her to the Pediatric Dentist in Brookhaven she has been using because I saw a cavity and she was complaining with it. The visit turned out to be very traumatic and Nana had to hold her down to get the temporary filling in (Mom and Dad were at work!) So we went to Jackson to "the frog" Doctor. His whole office is in frogs, he even has a mascot frog called Mister Smiley!. After some x-rays we realize the tooth is abscessed. She has a heart murmur (PDA) and has to take antibiotics when she has dental work done. So the abscess was very concerning to us. Dr. Long suggested we try the conscious sedation they do in the office to pull the infected tooth and do a few other things. So we did.....Makayla was hilarious in the waiting room after taking the silly juice...she sang songs to everyone...The visit went fine...but did result in our first missing tooth...SOOOO after we ventured to the Coast to Mom's house for the weekend..the tooth fairy made a visit..she even found us at Granny's...By the way; inflation is tough...that tooth was worth 5.00$....haha

4 year old Preschool

Makayal started 4 yr old preschool on August 8th..She is in Mrs Mickey's Class and LOVES it! She has learned how to write her name, and is learning the alphabet really well. I can't believe my baby will start Kindergarten next year!!
17 Is her Parent Pick up Number:)

ANY GIVEN DAY!!!

I decided to take pictures of all the places Mallory climbed on any given day...These were all taken August 27th...It started at 8:00 that morning on the Cinderella Vanity in Makayla's room while I was making the bed...Then the dining room table, then the toy box, then the bed, then the table agian, then Mommy's Scrapbooking table ( a seriously dangerous place to be)...and so on and so on...Makayla did not climb much so this is new to me and SOOO SCARY! At least she calls for me to get her down.... LOL.... UH OH.....Daddy Busted ME!!!!
She looks real concerned doesn't she!!!!

We had a special visit with Lesley, Lawanna, and John Willis Maples! Brad and Lesley went to PA school together in Savannah, GA. They came to the big city of Bogue Chitto from Bainbridge Georgia! We had such a wonderful time..We hope they come back again...I think we are planning to meet up in Destin next year.

Mallory!

Mallory is 15 months old now and into EVERYTHING!! She is 19lbs and not very tall..She is still in 9-12months clothes... She is a climber unlike her sister...so I am not sure how to handle it...I find her sitting on the dining room table all the time...She is a handful, but so adorable!!

Makayla's new Night shirt!

Makayla got a new Sleep shirt...Daddy's first Pee Wee Football Jersey! She loves it and Daddy loves her having it too....





















Mallory can't wait till she's old enough to wear it!
