September Kickoff





September has started off with a bang. Charles started Mother's Day Out, I turned 30 (gasp!), and Jacob introduced UGA football to our little man.

So far, Charles enjoys MDO and church nursery - "playing" with other babies and finding new toys. He hasn't had any separation anxiety as of yet. His teachers say he is quite the explorer, which I know all too well! He is now cruising and enjoying new finger foods - some of his favorites are bananas, yogurt, corn, and oatmeal. We also started a fun water safety class called Water Babies - just trying to get him ready for the beaches when we move!

Jacob is back in the hospital and feels like he is home again working with patients and making rounds. He has a pretty nice schedule - most days we see him home by 4:30. He is so excited about football season starting back up and hints of fall in the air.

Jacob surprised me on my birthday to help get me over the much dreaded day. It turned out to be better than I thought! I had a relaxing pedicure with my friend, Karen that afternoon and came home to our close friends and their babies to help me blow out all those candles. It's crazy to realize that Jacob and I have known each other for 10 years now.

Weekend Trips






The pictures shown are two weekend trips to North Alabama. One weekend was in Huntsville. Jacob was working at the hospital there one weekend. Charles and I found a great lake that had interesting geese and ducks. We also happened upon an art museum which had some great wooden blocks!

The other trip was to Langston for Labor Day weekend. We visited Jacob's aunt, uncle and cousins who live on Lake Guntersville. It is always so relaxing and a great catch-up time for family. Charles enjoyed his first boat ride! I was a bit nervous, but he had fun.
