What a sweet sound it is to hear your little one talking about God. I sing to Samuel at nap time and bed time each day. He is often asking for "the Grace Song" which translates to "Amazing Grace". Today as I was singing it he tried to sing along with me. He certainly didn't get it word for word, but many of the words/sounds were spot on! Of course I choked up and started crying as I was singing and he just looked up and smiled at me! Here is a fun video of what Samuel knows already about God!
Happy Birthday Crawford
Today we met at the park to celebrate Crawford's 5th birthday. We had a great time forming a parade with all our fun musical instruments. We walked the loop at the park and then read some parade books, ate some yummy cupcakes and played on the playground! Crawford, we are happy you were born and thank you for letting us celebrate with you!
In the car on the way over I told Samuel we were going to Crawford's birthday party. He quickly said "Birthday, CAKE!!!" Glad this kid has his priorities!
I asked Charlotte to smile for me and she gave me this sweet little pose! She's is so fun!
Climbing on the ropes! Samuel had so much fun exploring a new playground!
Anna had so much fun with the shakers, she smiled the whole time! Isn't she precious?
Caroline eating the icing first, the best way to do it!
Cooking Class
We go to the Children's Museum of Wilmington on Thursday mornings. Our little group is growing and we have so much fun! We start in cooking class and then find our way around playing with many different things. Today I only took pics in cooking class, but I'll try to get some more on another day!
Cooking class is so much fun. We start by washing our hands then finding a place on the floor for story time. We always cook something that coordinates with what we read about. We got there late this time, so we missed the story, but we made homemade applesauce! They had already cooked the apples, so we mashed them, added apple juice, maple syrup and cinnamon!
I was asking Samuel what he was making, and unfortunately this was the best pic of the bunch! Oh well!
LK testing to make sure she got the right amount of cinnamon!

One more trip to Savannah
The whole fam went this time to see Erica and Daniel (and Toby the dog) in Savannah. We had a great, relaxing weekend at the beach, Oatland Island (a wildlife reserve), downtown and just resting at home. We love our friends dearly and are so thankful that we get to continue to live life together after college!
The alligator that Samuel decided we should bring home as a pet!
Admiring the alligator from afar, the best place for us to be!!!
Time out for a snack!
Of course he wouldn't even stop to smile for the camera until he was way too close! The best I got!
Enjoying Tybee Island and an afternoon at the beach!
He entertained himself with this cup and the lifeguard stand for at least 30 minutes!
Uncle Stephen & Aunt Tiffy visit
Stephen and Tiffany (Tiffy as Samuel calls her) came for Labor Day. We had a great time relaxing, going to the beach, shopping for the girls and golf for the boys! Stephen and Tiffany even got to go downtown for brunch on the river! We love them so much and were so glad to have them here!!!
Tiffany is an AMAZING photographer and took some great pics of Samuel playing in the yard!
We went for a walk on Front Street after some delicious frozen yogurt!
