Today started your in house evaluation for speech therapy. You are so well mannered and respond so great- I want to squeeze you!

Today is your BIG day! Your shower is today! You wore a dress from Mamaw (Keri's g-ma). It was white and green gingham with pink ribbon on it. I LOVE this dress! You took a little while to warm up but I let you have a lick of icing which did the trick! Aunt Crista got you an orange balloon to play with and you never let it go. You ate off of everyone's plate and made sure to steal sausage balls (my favorite) off of daddy and I's plates! As we opened gifts you made your way back to the cake where Uncle Joey caught you sticking your fingers in the icing just like I taught you (opps!). You aren't used to that much sugar, it got you wound up! We were so blessed by the outpouring of blessings from everyone!!!

We went with daddy to a work conference. We left at 5am which meant you were up for the day. We traveled with another family that has 2 girls ages 6 and 9. You were very interested in them. Once we got there we attempted to nap and then headed to the pool. It had a beach area you preferred as you don't like being in water that is higher than your waist. We went to a family night and roasted marshmallows which you loved! I dowsed you in sunscreen! Being around the girls has increased your babbling-yay!

You don't like your big girl bed... We've had you a month and can't imagine life without you!

Took you swimming, your lips were turning purple so we took you out, despite your arguments!


The month of August was much more enjoyable. We started to find our groove with Skylar and adapt to one another. It was still hard but peace was more evident despite the challenges we faced.
