Lately

What have we been up to lately? Oh, a little bit of this and that really.

We've been doing a lot of watching for airplanes (Isaac's big obsession right now).




"Oss" he says when they fly by. We aren't really sure why he calls them "Oss"....Steven thinks he may be saying "ass" for the "A" in airplane...but just in a British accent of course.


I feel like things have been pretty busy for us--I'm sure most people can say the same with the fall approaching. Football takes up much of our weekends and Steven has been quite busy with work even starting to moonlight on some of his off days. Thankfully, with the ER schedule we still get to see him pretty often and at least every day. I'm so glad he went into Emergency Medicine!!

Steven and I enjoyed a nice date last weekend to the Alabama vs. Penn State game. I didn't take my camera due to the possible bad weather forecast but wish I had. The new addition to the stadium was unbelievable and the historical ambience surrounded us everywhere. We always love going back to T-town and feeling reminiscent about our college days...


During the week I've continued meeting with my college girlfriends on Monday nights for a little Bible Study. It's always an encouraging time of fellowship. And congratulations to one of my fellow bible study friends (a.k.a. Lauren!) who had her baby just today!! I was able to host a fun baby shower at my house for her just last weekend along with some friends.




On Wednesday nights I'm back at the wheel again traveling to my beginner's sewing class. Yes, I've finally decided to bite the bullet and learn to sew. It's been fun so far. I mean it hasn't made me want to throw curse words around as much as the blue bird cupcakes so that's a good sign.


There sure is a lot of pinning involved...



I've enjoyed creating a little jon jon for little buddy. I'm making it reversable so he can get double wear out of it for the fall.





I was so excited to learn to sew that I orded a few fabrics online and plan to make pants for his winter wardrobe. I'll let you know how they turn out.



I really haven't done much picture taking these days. We did go to the Botanical Gardens recently for a quick walk in the beautiful nature. I happened to bring my camera along...






Pay no attention to the dried gunk on his face. :)


I love this one of his little finger in his mouth. This is the exact expression he makes when he's feeling shy...



I love my sweet boy. And gorgeous flowers to take pictures with. :)


By the end of our journey through the gardens I'm not really sure who was more ready for me to stop with the photo session.... Isaac or my husband. Steven's not terribly fond of pictures you see.


Not to mention, I think little buddy was shooting me the bird right before we left.

But he sure is cute doing so.
Okay, okay, I'm just joshing with you. But really he seriously uses his middle finger for everything especially spinning wheels on little matchbox cars.
Speaking of mathbox cars... he LOOOOVES them!
Well, that's all for now folks.

Love all the great pictures! I also love the fabric you chose. So excited you're learning to sew. Can't wait to see the finished products!

Oh Kimmie
Seeing your fabric takes me back about 26 years. You see, Isaac's dad, aka my son, wore some very fun and colorful play clothes that his Nana (my mother) made for him. Isaac will LOVE his cute clothes--it is in his genes.

I can't believe that you would curse- or that your child would shoot the bird!! ;)
