the park

Today Pearson and I enjoyed the warm winter weather with a visit to the park. He enjoyed swinging, climbing up the slide, and picking up rocks! We went to the park at my mom's school, so it was completely empty.


I think Pearson is trying to learn how to tickle...when he sees bare skin he grabs and smiles, which is quite funny.
He also enjoys directing as in music..he doesn't have any bossy genes, so I'm not sure why he wants to direct?
Anyhoo, it is very funny to watch him swing both arms when music plays...our little maestro.

Ill post birthday and Christmas pictures soon!

It only took me approximately 2 months to figure out how to post pics to the blog via my phone. Who is really counting? (Paige, NeNe, Tyler, Marion, Kathy, just to name a few!)

Here is one pic to wet your appetite....now don't go getting your hopes up and setting the standards high. I'm going to try to post more pics more often.

My new year's resolution...post more!

Boston Trip

I'm blogging from Boston, MA on Marlbrough Street a block over from Newbury Street while visiting my friends, Emalee and Mark Holmes. Their dog, Jackson, has been very kind to allow Pearson to completely invade his space. Pearson is accustom to Lolly's love (licks), so he keeps leaning into Jackson with his mouth open wide. Jackson is a well behaved dog unlike the Lolly girl, thus Pearson has not received very many kisses, which should make his NeNe, Nana, and Granny pleased!

Pearson made his first flight on Saturday morning and was perfect! He smiled over the seat at a partner from Darrell's firm, which was a relief. He really knows how to put on the charm when needed. We arrived Saturday afternoon and strolled around Beacon Hill, the Public Common, and then went back to the Holmes to enjoy delicious pizza.

On Sunday we enjoyed brunch at Masa. Kat was in Boston for a wedding and was able to join us, which was quite a treat. I'll see her twice in one week! Then we strolled and shopped around the Holmes neighborhood. Em had cute little cupcakes to celebrate my birthday. Red Velvet with cream cheese icing and a candle to celebrate 29 and holding until I'm 39 and holding!

On Monday, we headed to North End for a oysters at Neptune! Em tried her first slimly delicacy and opted to never eat an oyster again. Then we walked a block to burn some calories before indulging in sweet treats from Mike's Pastries, home of the best cannoli ever. So in honor of the best cannolis ever, Em ate Boston Cream Pie and I ate Tiramisu. Darrell was disappointed with our choices. He truly loves the cannoli and cannot find one that compares to Mike's anywhere south of the Mason Dixon!

Boston is a beautiful city bustling with people strolling, walking dogs along the cobblestone sidewalks. The shopping is fantastic and the food is divine! Pearson and I have truly enjoyed our trip

Pearson almost 10 months old

Picture Posting Difficulties... Okay, so I tried to hold up my end of the bargain. However the pictures won't upload. I'll try to get pictures posted today or tomorrow!!!


Today Pearson started Mother's Day Out, so I have time to blog. Also I made a pact with me SIL that I would post by Wednesday. I feel like my college days waiting until the last minute to write the paper that is due.

Well Pearson has been a busy bee as usual. He is all over the place. He opens and closes every door. We laugh because Pearson's Fisher-Price is pots, plans, spoons, magazines, blackberries (not the best choice, since now it no longer works). He loves the Lolly dog and pets her as much as possible. He loves to give her treats. She loves him too!!

He loves to swim, swim, swim! He loves to swing at the park. He loves to eat cheerios and other foods with his fingers.

Over the past couple of months he has been to the beach, the lake, the pool, Atlanta, and Thomson. He has played with friends. Seen his Uncle John who just moved to Missouri.

He is almost a year old... only 2 more months!

At 9 months he maintained his 75th percentile physique...he was almost 22 lbs, 28.5 inches long, and still has a head in the 50th percentile!

He is a sweetheart in everyway. He loves to smile, talk, spit his water out and make bubbles, he flirts, but most of all he likes to GO GO GO!!!

Here are some pics of this little ball of energy! He is one silly sweet goose!

The definition of crazy...

Being crazy is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results. I am afraid I have some crazy friends and family who check this blog all too often expecting to find new pictures. Sorry I have made you crazy. Birds of a feather flock together, so the crazy factor probably makes us friends!

Well today friends and fam you are not crazy!! There are some new pics courtesy of Kat's camera.

So here are a few pics from the beach with Leigh Annie, Kat, and Mary Les... what a blast!

After a 7 hour trek, 2 long stops, a million cheerios and traks of Bible songs, Pearson and I arrived at the cutest little blue house in PBC (thanks to the Greene's). We had a blast on the beach and hanging out with the girls and Pearson.

What wonderful friends!!!!!

Beach Baby...well more like pool baby!











Pearson enjoyed his second trip to the beach. He like the swimming pool, but not the ocean. Hopefully it will grow on him.

Six months and moving!

Pearson is on the go!

Eating blocks yummy!

Not quite sure about ocean water... it is cold!

On the balcony with Mom and Dad


I am 6 months...crawling, clapping, pulling up, eating carrots, sweet potatoes, rice cereal, apples, bananas, squash... I don't like green beans! I have 4 teeth up top and 2 on the bottom... I can sit up, squeal with delight, and I most definitely know my name! Sadly I am becoming quite the big baby boy!


I love my veggies... look I can hold the spoon myself!

Watch me go...I am all over the place

A little attention for the Lolly girl! Her uncle John tried to train her in his short visit.

Boating with Granddaddy... The boat just lulled me to sleep...This life jacket should be able to keep me afloat!
