 Nappin' at the beach

 Boys will be boys...this beauty is back from 4th of July weekend at the beach.

 Selfie with Mommy :)

 Bug trap he made at school :) It was torn up by the time we got home from school!

 Moments later he cranked the car...ACK!

 Zoo day with Mae Mae

 Feeling a little under the weather. 

 Monkey see, monkey do.

 My Children's Hospital girls at a wedding!

 Blurry pic but captures he latest MAJOR obsession...the ipad. 

 Since Daddy puts on William's socks and shoes every morning, William must put on Daddy's. He's one patient dad!

 Bring your favorite book to school day. He chose "There's an Alligator Under My Bed." He also insisted on taking his gator "Pete" and wearing his alligator sleep shirt. 

 Every single time he sees the garbage truck coming down our street he gets this excited!!!

And because this photo comparison is absolutely hilarious...

Rub-a-dub-dub

William's in the tub...

4th of July 2014

Sticking with tradition, we headed to PCB for the 4th of July. The weather was MUCH more cooperative this year and we didn't see one rain drop the entire time we were there, whereas last year we didn't see one ray of sunshine. In true William style, he busted his head open Thursday morning by falling out of his stroller head first and getting a rock lodged in his forehead. Okay, it sounds much worse that it actually was but it was still quite scary. My mom and I ended up taking him to the emergency clinic to be sure he didn't need stitches. Thankfully he didn't! After that scary incident, we had a fabulous trip!

 The Billings and young Billings were in PCB too and stayed at a condo with this view! We ate dinner over there Thursday night. 

 Loved seeing this precious, expecting (in January) couple! 

 Wild thang sportin' his bandaid.

 Some of the many faces of William...

 Birthday snuggles with Daddy Steve!

 Enjoying a prize which he earned by cooperating for some pictures :)

 Mommy/William picture fail...yet again!

 Ken and Barbie aka Uncle Doug and Katie

 My handsome dudes

 Jan Jan and Sam were there too!!! Jan Jan and Juju spent 98% of their time in the kitchen so I don't have a single picture of them. We ate VERY well ;)

 Loves Uncle Doug

 Helping Daddy Steve blow out his candles

 One last boat ride...it was definitely one of the best 4th's ever!

Matt and Virginia's Wedding

In June, Grant and I traveled to New Orleans for Virginia and Matt's BIG wedding weekend. We made the trip with our besties, Ragan and Kyle, and let's just say those two know how to do NOLA. We had the best time wining and dining with best friends, getting dressed up, staying up until midnight (we're old), sleeping past 6:30, and catching up with other old friends until the wee hours of the morning. I didn't take my camera with me because I was too paranoid I'd lose it. It was hands down the most fun wedding weekend ever!

 We left Thursday morning so we got there in time to enjoy the city and relax.

 We had an incredible dinner Thursday night. We loved seeing the Steffen's!!!

 Rehearsal dinner with my man.

 Yaya's...it's hard to believe we're all married now!

 Kori came in town Friday night so I got to catch up with her and hear about her wedding plans after the rehearsal dinner. She's next!

 The reception was so beautiful and fun! The most exciting part of the night was the second line parade at the end of the reception where the bride and groom walked the streets of New Orleans with a band & followed by the entire entourage. 

 I spy Danny :)

 It was also fun spending time with my parents sans William! Aunt Birdie and Ah-Dah held down the fort with William in Bham. We are forever in debt to them for that!!!!

And I don't have one picture of the gorgeous bride herself...I'll be back with one!
