Yum, yum! Charlotte fed herself her first cracker! Actually it was a Mum-Mum cracker which is basically a really soft rice cake…but she really seemed to like it. It kept her busy for about 20 minutes which mommy liked too! This girl is growing up way to fast!
We have had an enormous amount of rain in Houston this past month and our grass had benefitted very much from it. Grant also loves to go play in the rain. He either wants to splash in his boots or run around outside!
I love how much this little boy loves his daddy! And how much his daddy loves him!
I’m so blessed that I have such sweet natured kids who will help their mommy try out new photography locations!
Grant was surprisingly good natured during this particular time…i think it was because we let him wear his cowboy boots with his shorts! It was cute and such a little boy thing!
My “little Missy Lou-Hou” you are getting so big! (Do you like your nickname? We call you that all the time!) You have learned so much this month:
Thank you for all the sweet memories that we have made this month! You are such a beautiful girl and we pray for you and treasure you!
"At the beach, life is different. Time doesn't move hour to hour but mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides and follow the sun."
We were so lucky to be invited on a beach trip this past May by Grammy and Papaw. We went to Port Aransas and stayed in a great resort. Funny enough, Matt actually stayed at this same location during a band trip in high school. Grant was so excited and talked about “going to the beach” consistently.
The weather was pretty cloudy on the first day (when these below pictures were taken) but cleared up nicely for the remaining couple days that we were there.
We also spent a lot of time in the 3 different swimming pools that the resort had. Charlotte liked to sit with her Grammy in the shade and watch all the action in the pool.
She got in the pool once with Daddy, but quickly decided that it was way to cold and wanted nothing to do with it.
But once again our little “water baby” Grant loved the pool. I bet he jumped off the side, to our waiting arms, at least 100 times. He slept really well each night after that jumping and swimming!
There was also lots of sandcastle building and playing in the sand. Charlotte even brought her own chair!
Early one morning we decided to have a mini photo shoot of the kiddos on the beach…you know me, of course that was my idea. No one was as excited as I was to partake but I ended up with a lot of sweet shots. So I will chalk it up to…totally worth it!
I know that my kids get so tired of having my camera in their faces but they are just so darn cute and I can’t help it! It has come to a point where Grant will play “take your picture” with his stuffed animals and then give them pretend candy afterwards, haha!
The other night when the lighting was beautiful we took the kids to a park and we got some really great pictures!
Ok, so we got cute pictures of the child that would sit still and cooperate…
She is such a sweetie and we love her so much!
