New Favorite Passtime




We got a johnny jumper recently, and it has proven to be a "must have"(next to the baby bijiorn). She is still figuring it all out, but she is quickly discovering her capabilities. Soon, she will be touching the ceiling. Unfortunately, due to the untraditional everything in our apartment, the door frames are not the normal width. The downstairs guest bathroom door is the only one the jumper will fit in. It is still worth keeping.

First Easter



We had a good Easter, despite the weather. Amelia looked so sweet in her dress. It snowed that weekend, so it was a bit chilly to say the least. Amelia actually slept through the night that Saturday, and again on Sunday night! I hope this isn't a teaser!

New Bathroom!












Preston finally had a chance to finish the upstairs bathroom, so...Woohoo! The floors are the original floors of the building, so they still look like this after many scrubbings. Nevertheless, it looks so good. Preston did such a great job (he did everything from the tile work to the trim).

"Play" Group


Amelia and I hung out last Monday with Tanya (mom) and her little 6 month old girl, Lily (the one teething). Two other girls joined us with their 5 month old boys. Calling it a play group is a major overstatement, seeing as the babies obviously had no awareness of each other. We all want to get together on a regular basis to hang out. The other cutie is Jack. Mason, the fourth one, was not there yet.

Family Picture


My mom was so happy to see us this weekend. Amelia changes so much each week, so even three weeks ago, when mom saw her last, she was different. She is starting to show some new hair coming in. It may be blonde, but it is too thin to tell yet. She also is teething (already!!). The doctor said it can happen this early. She is knawing on her fists, drooling a lot, and not sleeping too great. Wow! I can't believe how fast she is moving along! I wish I could freeze time.

Amelia and Lil' Logan




Logan wanted to hold Amelia (for practice, of course). He was so sweet with her, and when he had let my mom take her from him, he immediately came back to hold her some more. He is going to make such a good big brother...Although it may be a whole different ballgame when their new baby doesn't go away at the end of the day. Nevertheless, he is so sweet with Amelia.

Weekend at "Grandoty's"


This weekend, Amelia and I went to see my dad. He seems to like the name "Grandoty" as a substitute for Grandaddy, so maybe that will stick. It's relly up to Little Logan, the oldest grand child. We had a great time. Of course, we saw all the progress at the 2-mile place with the clubhouse, and cabin. The cabin has new floors and the clubhouse is coming along pretty nicely. Also, we took a ride in the four-wheeler/golf cart through the Weston Place, which is the other piece of property in north Winnsboro. It is so beautiful out there! Amelia really had a good time, and it was great to see my dad with her. He had not seen her in about five weeks.
