Ole Miss vs Southeast Missouri

Another win under our belt! It was Olivia's first tailgate. It was hot!!! But the kids did well considering everything. Kickoff was at 6, so I stayed back to feed Olivia and then meet Bryan and Martin at the game. About 15 minutes after I got to the game, Martin decided he was ready to go back to the tailgate. I walked back with both kids so Bryan could actually enjoy the game. Martin loaded up on grapes and realized everyone we tailgate with was at the game, so he promptly announced he was ready to go back to the game. I hadn't even caught my breath from our walk back yet. I chugged a bottle of water and off we went headed back in time to make it back for half time.

I think I saw two plays before halftime. Luckily I saw most of the second half! And we got to celebrate a win with The Rebels! Martin enjoys watching the sidelines for Rebel (the black bear). And everyone we sit by was excited to see Olivia since last football season I was just pregnant with her :). And they both snored the whole way home after the game. I'm not as young as I once was. All those stairs while carrying a baby will wear you out! Hotty Toddy! Ready for the game against Texas tomorrow.....Let's make it 3-0!







August and 7 months

It's been another whirlwind month! Olivia cut 6 teeth in a matter of 4 weeks. (#2-Aug 3, #3-Aug 12, #4-Aug 14, #5-Aug 19, #6-Aug 22) I guess we got it all done at once ....right?....! I don't remember Martin growing up this fast. She is crawling all over the house now and pulling up on everything. We've started the daily floor cleaning routine. A crawling baby and an almost 3 year old who loves goldfish and froot loops means sweeping is a daily necessity!

On August 7 Olivia started crawling on her hands and knees. Her transition from low crawling to hands and knees went fast. I think she realized she could go faster (aka--keep up with her brother), if she was on her hands and knees. Martin started back to school at the end o August and is LOVING it this year. Stark contrast to last year. We love his teachers, and a few of his friends from last year are in his class too! Sooo thankful for Hope Preschool! It has been such a blessing for us.

We celebrated our first Rebel Win of the season vs Vandy! Go Rebels! Feels good to be this optimistic about Ole Miss Football again.

We got our proofs back from our family pictures and it's a miracle, but there are some great ones!! A few good ones of both of the kids and a few good ones of the family and several good ones of Olivia. Can't wait to order some for the house!!
