Tuesday fun...

Will is just growing and doing new things every day! He has started throwing a ball. We got a foam baseball at the Gwinnett Braves game, and he likes to throw that to either me or Brad. He carries it around the house most of the day. He was carrying his bat earlier, but Brad caught him with his hammer instead of the bat.

Will also loves to climb onto the couch and get the remote control. He has figured out that it goes with the t.v. and he can even change the channel. Can you believe he is going to be 14 months on Thursday? Where does the time go?

Happy 120th Birthday Meme and Poppi

Tonight was a special night...we went to the Blue Willow Inn for dinner. Why? For Meme and Poppi's surprise 120th birthday party, that's why. It sure was hard for Mama, Daddy, Aunt Beth, and Uncle Zack to keep all the details from Meme and Poppi, and we were SO glad that all their friends kept the secret. They were very surprised, and a wonderful time was had by all!!

Keep your eye on the prize...

Will and I shared a sugar-free fudgepop after we ate lunch today...

Uh-oh....it's all gone!! :(

You be the judge...

Yesterday when I got Will from his nap, I thought he was a Brad, Jr. I honestly thought I was looking at a miniature version of my husband. All afternoon when I looked at him, I thought, "Brad." Now, I have known since birth that Will favors Brad a lot, but sometimes in certain instances, I see myself in him...especially in younger pictures of me. Aunt Abigail says she sees more of me in him than Brad, but most other people say Brad. What do you think? Is he a daddy's boy??

He's out for the count...

In preparation for my return to work in August, I am trying to wean Will from his morning nap. He LOVES to sleep. All I have to say is, "Will, do you want to take a night-night?" and he runs to his room as fast as he can.

Ms. Jackie does not give the children morning naps. Instead, they go down after lunch...sometime around 12:30. It has been easy this week to keep him up because Monday we went to the mall, yesterday was music, and today he had a doctor's appointment. However, the days we are home, he wants a nap, and I usually give in.

I don't think he will have trouble staying awake at Jackie's house because there will be 5 boys his age there to play with all morning.

The days Will does get just an afternoon nap, he will sleep for sometimes a little over 3 hours. Here is how I found him a few minutes ago...out like a light!!

The love between a boy and his dog...

Toby got a lot more rest and relaxation before Will came along...or I guess I should say before Will started moving and realized Toby was his playmate. Every morning when I get Will from his crib, his first thing he says is "To" or "To-To" and he looks down for Toby. He follows Toby around, and Toby follows him around. I have even caught Toby sneaking into Will's room during naps...I think he is hoping to wake him up. Toby takes a lot of abuse from Will...Will always wants to play with him and love on him. But Toby is good, and is always sweet to Will, no matter what. These two boys sure do love each other!

It got quiet in the house...

While I was in the laundry room folding clothes from the dryer and loading up the dryer and then the washer again, the house got quiet. Normally wherever Will is, I know just by the noises in the room. Not this afternoon. I got scared. Where was he? I had to get the camera when I found him...
