Fun in Atlanta

We had the privilege of visiting our dear friends Ted and Michele and their two kids TJ(2) and Olivia(1) this past weekend in Atlanta. It was our second annual trip with the Crews' and the Scott's. It was also Brennan's first real vacation spending three nights away from home. He was a real trooper as we kept him up late and he didn't get all of his naps. He did great and had so much fun. It was a prelude of what to expect when we go to California in two weeks. I'm crossing my fingers that the time change won't totally mess him up. Anyways, we spent the weekend hanging out with the hostess with the mostess as we were fed way too much! We were able to celebrate Tina's birthday with a nice dinner with no kids Friday night. On Saturday, we went to a waterpark while the guys played the golf game they had been waiting for for at least four months. We went to the ESPN Zone Saturday night where we had a great dinner and then played lots of games. It was fun to watch the men be kids again as they raced around competing at every game they could. I could go on and on about every part of the weekend, but most of all we had a great time talking and dreaming together and staying up really late!

Life has been busy!

Sorry to all of you who check this blog regularly and have been dissapointed in my lack of posting. Life has been a bit crazy lately with work, family, and Brennan. Mostly crazy with work, which has left me no free time. Just to give you some updates...Brennan is getting his four top teeth and is moving around like crazy. He is cruising around furniture and beginning to let go and stand alone. I can't believe how fast he is growing and beginning to be a little boy instead of a baby. We are heading to Atlanta for the weekend to visit our dear friends Ted and Michelle and their two kiddos TJ and Olivia. Wish us luck. This will be Brennan's first real vacation. I'm sure I'll have lots of pictures and videos to post next week!

Belly Laugh

We enjoyed having Hannah and Gabby Huff stay with us for a few days! They were such a huge help with Brennan and he had a blast with them. Here is a video of Gabby making Brennan laugh really hard!

Lions & Tigers & Bears..Oh MY!

Brennan made his first trip to the zoo on Wednesday. He was a lucky man to have so many fun people to go with! We got to the zoo around 9:30am to avoid the extreme heat...I can't say we avoided it, but it wasn't unbearable. We had a great time looking at all of the neat animals.

The girls enjoyed feeding the birds!

Brennan's friend Jonathan...he is 7 weeks younger than Brennan.

The whole fam...

Swimming with Hannah and Gabby!

We had a great time at the pool yesterday! Hannah loved the waterslide and it was nice to be in the water since it was almost 100 degrees yesterday!

Here's a video!

Gabby won our game of monopoly! She owned great real estate!

Practicing his Golf Game at 7 mos.

Brennan got these golf clubs when he was a newborn and I thought...he's never going to be able to play with them. Well, I was wrong, because they are his favorite toy. He always crawls into the corner to pull them out! I guess he's taking after his daddy! That's scary!

Having a Blast with Hannah and Gabby!

Brennan is a lucky man this week! He is getting so much attention from his cousins Hannah and Gabby! We have a big week planned as they spend a few days with us. Today we have already been on a long walk, watched a movie, and we plan to make it to the pool late this afternoon when Steven gets home. Here's a picture of Brennan having a blast!
