Winetasting with the ladies

About 4 years ago, I joined a Military brides board on the Knot to ask for help for my wedding. 4 years and many deployments, kiddos and life events later these ladies are now some of my dearest friends. I had no idea you could be so close to people that you've never personally met. As the years have gone on the military has stationed lots of us close and I have got to meet many of them. Today 4 of us (all Marine wives) decided to leave the kiddos with our hubbys and go winetasting. Words cannot explain how much fun we had...but perhaps a few pictures can...love you girls!

He sits!

He's mastered sitting...is crawling that far behind?

Happy St. Patty's day!

Peas!

Since the Matt-man has been loving himself some rice cereal we decided that it was time to introduce him to some other foods. First up? Peas! Of course he had no idea that the menu had changed.

Yay for chow time!

Ack...what is this?!?!

Then he just pretty much rubbed the peas all over his face. Though it was a rocky first go, he loves them now!

Happy 6 Months!!

How is our little man 6 months old already? Time is going way too fast and if I could keep him like this forever, I probably would. In the last few weeks he has grown so much and we think he is just about tipping the scales at 20lbs! whoa.

In the last month our little guy has:

* Started sitting
* Started eating solids...yummy peas!
* Babbles like his mama
* Mastered rolling over. So much so that we can't keep him on his back...ever.
* Tries to put just about everything in his mouth
* Grabs at everything (oh dear)
* Sleeps through the night....(sometimes ;) )
* Giggles at everything
* Has discovered our kitty (Thunder is less than thrilled)

We love watching him grow into such a sweet boy. I don't think it could be possible to love someone more.

Happy 6 months sweet baby! We love you!

Lazy Saturday Mornings...

My Todd is just thrilled to finally have a son that he can watch cartoons with without ridicule. This morning I woke to find both my boys laying on the couch watching Transformers. It was adorable. When they had watched enough they went ahead and took a nap. Love them!

Beach Baby!

LOVE him.
