Weekend fun!


First of all, I just want to thank Meemaw (Damaris) and Nanny (Damaris's mom Christine) who drove all the way to Athens on Thursday morning to clean our house and to see Gray and me. We were so thankful and greatly appreciated the help. It's so nice to walk into a clean home and know that all I have to do is spend time with my family and not worry about cleaning the bathrooms or sweeping the floor. Thanks again Meemaw and Nanny!

We had such a fun and enjoyable weekend. It started off on Friday with Mike getting to Athens in time to pick up Gray from daycare. Mike hadn't see Gray since last Monday morning and it was a nice treat for both of them. By the way...Gray moves up to the next class in daycare on November 2nd. Now that he is crawling and sitting up by himself, it is time...and time is just flying by. Mike, Gray, and I stayed home Friday night and just hung out together. We were anticipating seeing several of our friends who had planned to come visit us. Due to some issues, the only ones that got to come to our house on Saturday was Steven and his son Emerson. Emerson is only two weeks younger than Gray and it was great to see them both.

Saturday morning came and Gray pulled up for the first time on the little play table that you see in the picture above. We were so proud of him. He also had another first...he fell on that same table and busted his lip. Yes, there was blood and he was pitiful. He has never really had a "boo boo". We know that there will probably be many more, but I felt so bad for him. Gray sucked it up like a big boy though and it never bothered him again.

I had to work some on Saturday, but when I got home, I got to see Mr. Emerson...what a cutie! He is precious and it was so much fun to see them playing together. We visited the Terrapin Brewery on Saturday night and then went out for dinner.

Sunday, after everyone slept in, we headed to Sandy Creek park for some disc golf. Emerson and Graylon enjoyed being strolled around and Mike and Steven competed for 19 holes of disc golf. Steven won. I was the official score keeper. It was such a beautiful day. The weather was perfect. My camera battery died while we were there so I didn't get many pictures at the park.

Graylon also got another tooth today. One of his top middle teeth is peeking through. He has three teeth now! Also, now that Gray is always on the move, it is getting difficult trying to change his diaper. There is some proof below. Gray may not like this but I thought it was too cute not to share. Please no one tell Gray about the picture below. When you see it, you will know what I mean. :) All in all, it was a great weekend. Check out some pictures below.


This is after Graylon had pulled up on his play table. Way to go Gray!


Gray and Emerson playing together. They are such sweet babies.


Gray's is trying to get Emerson to crawl and Emerson is trying to get Gray to just relax...it is the weekend.


The two boys both in the back seat of our Honda Accord. They were so ready to go out on the town Saturday night.


It was a little chilly out on Saturday so Gray got to wear his new gray jacket.


Emerson in his gray jacket too.


Me and my sweet baby boy...check out the busted lip.


If you think Emerson looks like his daddy, you should see his mommy. He is such a good mix of them both.


Gray is teaching Mike how to keep your dukes up.


All the boys posing in front of the Terrapin at the brewery.


Someone could not sit still long enough to get a new diaper on before he was on his way to play.


Gray and Emerson were getting ready for their trip to the park.


Not really sure what they were looking at...probably a fresh bottle of milk.


Steven is getting some love from both baby boys.


Mike couldn't be left out.


Gray and Emerson were sooo good in their strollers for the disc golf game. They took it all in.


My baby Gray in his new hat that Granna and Pop gave us last Christmas before Gray was even here.

When I look at the pic of him standing I can't believe this day has already come. Time sure flies. He's such a big boy. Emerson is a cutie too! I can only imagine how they will be on the basketball court.
