Deacon's Pirate Party

Deacon is 3 Years Old!

The amazing Pirate Cake.

Pirate Sword Fight!

Pirate Daddy and Mommy enjoying some cake.

Deacon sword fighting with Pirate Pawpaw and Mimi.

Grammie and Caroline.

Deacon and Kaylee....Deacon loves Kaylee. If he knew what a girlfriend was she would be it for me....he likes the older women. :)

Poppy and the princess.

Deacon playing with the remnants of his cake...he was a little sad it wasn't there to play with anymore.

Luke entertained himself at the party by picking weeds for us. He is welcome back any time!

Pumpkin Patch

Here are the kids at a local pumpkin patch. It was actually cool this morning and Deacon loved using the pumpkins as his seat.

We tried to get them to take a picture together and this was as close as we could get them on the first attempt.

I can't believe how old he looks!

This picture makes me smile with her windblown look. :)

Deacon was bowling/throwing with this pumpkin. Yes we did end up buying it, but look at that form, stepping with the foot arm back all that he needs is to point the other arm....Pawpaw would be so proud.

CyFest and a Few Extras

That's right, this is a picture of Deacon kissing Caroline....it's amazing the power that a gummie bearie holds. :)

All dressed up on one of our cooler days.

Caroline's outfit that she wore to Cyfest.

Cute little dress and looks like she might be working on her boxing. :)

This is Caroline with her little bunny. Our nickname for Caroline is snuggle bunny so we had to get her a bunny for her lovie, whoobie...whatever you want to call it.

This is Deacon with his favorite animal. He was so sad that there was not a bunny until I found this one cowering in the corner...the poor bunny was terrorized by kids trying to pick him up all day. He sat very still while Deacon pet him. We weren't sure if he was just happy to be left on the ground or trying to stay still trying to play dead.

They had lots of great free things to do like coloring pumpkins and candy bags.

Deacon got to race a ducky down the river that runs through the middle of campus. He got a little excited and through in his duck twice before the race started, but ended up having fun watching his ducky swim.

Family Pics

Little Caroline, trying to tell me all about it. She is starting to make some cute sounds.

Daddy and Caroline at 6 weeks.

Daddy and the kids. It was free food at Chick-fil-a day if you wore your team's logo. So we all dressed up in our Aggie gear and headed that way. The best part is that we actually won our game so we could wear our aggie gear with extra pride.

Mommy with the kids. We had to take turns taking pictures. :)

August

This is my first pair of capri pants. Daddy said that I looked kind of funny, but Mommy thought that they were cute.


Daddy and Caroline sleeping after she went shopping with mommy.

I'm going to get that hand...

Maybe, I'll just settle for the blanket.

Playing in the water with Pawpaw.

Family Pictures

Here are some more pictures of Caroline in her first 2 weeks.

Her 1st bath.

We had lots of visitors over the past couple of weeks. Here is Caroline and Mimi.

Deacon and Mimi had a lot of fun playing a driving game....although he thought that it was much more fun to splash in the water than to finish the race.

Grammie and Caroline.

Poppy and Caroline.

Even Uncle David came and more impressive is that he even held Caroline.

Here is our first family picture right after Caroline's baby dedication at church. We decided to go ahead and do the dedication, but snuck out early before too many people could share germs. :)

One last picture in her cute dress. She would only manage to open one peeper for me.
