Memorial Day Weekend...

Cruisin on the boat
Bellie hanging out with jack
watching Sponge Bob What a sweet baby boy!!

So this weekend Our family Friends Tiger & Carolyn came in town with their kids. We had a blast going out on the boat until the generator blew out and the air conditioning stopped working! Which would have been no big deal but having a 4 month old out in the sun for too long is NOT a good combination! So instead of heading out to Egmont key for the day... we all had to head back to the marina for the mechanic to fix dad's new baby! After a long day we came home to veg for a little while and watch our favorite... sponge bob!

What a busy DAY...

Look how cute... Jack fell asleep in his Boppy Bouncy Seat

And Look... one sock fell off in between me taking these picturesMy First Diaper CakeMelissa's Diaper Cake & Favors
Little did uncle rick know...

but as this picture was being taken Jack was POOPING on his leg! This is FRITA
what a priceless picture:)One of Jacks' favorite future babysitters... Miss Halley

Today was a busy day for us! My mom came over in the morning to babysit so that i could run a few errands (and get a pedicure) before we leave for our big trip to Baton Rouge next week. Then this afternoon, as i was putting the finishing touches on Melissa's diaper cake ( My first try at making one) & baby shower favors, Jack fell asleep for the FIRST time ever in his Boppy Bouncy Seat! It was oh so cute! And finally this evening, Uncle Rick came over to introduce us to his mom's new dog "Frita." The funny thing was, baby jack didn't want to have anything to do with the little pup... and when he did finally look at her he made the ugliest frowny face! And then, jack decided to poop all the way through his diaper, his outfit, and through Uncle Rick's Jeans! Too Funny! Later in the evening, Sean & Halley stopped by for a little bit to play with jack... Halley is so great with him! She's going to make a great babysitter!!

Liz Turns The Big 21...

Happy Birthday Liz... we LOVE you!! Jack is telling Liz a story... followed by slobber
Jack loves to snuggle with his favorite "Aunt" Liz
Hello world... guess who's teething
Jack is trying to sit up on his own here... he is getting stronger every day!

Miss Liz turns 21 on Friday, so we took her out to dinner tonight at the Cheesecake Factory to celebrate her birthday early... and we even bought her this silly hat to wear. We just LOVE her and wish her the best of luck in California at her stylizing internship. We are going to miss her sooooo much:) After dinner we all sat on the couch to watch the American Idol Finale... and Jack was talking up a storm while snuggling in her arms. It was a fun night... it reminds me of the many nights Liz would spend the night so we could watch The Hills and do homework all night long. Ahhh, what great memories!!

So Jack has started teething this week AND sitting up on his own! We are excited, and yet sad that our poor little man has to experience tooth pain. I tried putting the wet washcloth in the freezer and he seems to like it in his mouth for about 2 minutes:) Does anyone have any good suggestions or remedies for teething??

So my dad surprised my mom with this mother's day gift, a 40 ft REGAL boat, which really was just a new toy for him disguised a present! He officially picked it up this morning, so we all went out on it today... and wow it's beautiful! There are so many places to hang out, sleep, lounge, etc. We had a fun day exploring the new toy together:) The first picture is of the new boat next to the old 26 ft Twin Vee boat, which some of y'all might recognize from the wedding:) And afterwards, we all came back to our house so Jamey and i could go out to dinner with some friends while mom, dad, & Bren babysat.

We even got to use our brand new dinning room set for the FIRST time that we bought about 15 months ago! it was soooo much fun... we played chicken foot, watched movies, and ate some yummy french dip poboys that dad cooked!
