Play Time!

Kingston and I got home from daycare today and found that Daddy had been hard at work taking out the old couch in the bonus room and putting together a play area! Kingston was so excited he could hardly contain himself! He now has his very own slide! And mommy was very happy the old couch was gone!
These pics are from our weekend pool party but I thought they were cute so I wanted to share!




Well gotta go grill! Have a great weekend! We will be doing the Muddy Buddy so if I survive I will post pictures!

14 Month Update!

I don't have any pictures to post this week I left my camera at my friend Lori's so my cute pictures of Kingston playing in the pool will have to wait until later. But since Kingston was officially 14 months old yesterday and it's been a pretty big week I wanted to do a quick update. Kingston went to the doctor twice this week and both times he weighted in at 21 pounds!! Yippee!! We finally broke the 20 pound mark.

He has also been a drooly little dude and we finally discovered why, he's getting his molars!! One has broken through and another one should be through any day. He's been a little fussier then usual which for Kingston isn't bad since he is a very chill little dude.

He's also really taken off in the walking department. If he falls he has learned to get back up instead of crawling. He's doing so well we passed his walking toy along to our friend Ian!

He eats everything we put in front of him. He prefers some things to others but so far we haven't found anything he hates which is good. This week he tried imitation crab meat and portabella mushrooms and loved both of them.

This weekend we went to a pool party and Kingston loved the water. He was a little fish and loved to be dunked under so he could kick back to the top. I have some pictures that I'll post as soon as I get my camera. We all had a great time and want to say thanks to Lori, Jason and Ian who opened there home up to many many babies for a very fun day!


Last night we went and played games at our friend Rosanna's and had a great time. Kingston was the only boy baby there with 3 girls. That seems to never happen! Today we are hanging out at home, catching up on chores and waiting for Daddy to get home, it's great to have an extra day off to do nothing but relax!

A Storybook Day!

Two years ago I walked into a bar and yelled at a boy for sitting at my table. We began to talk, I played hard to get for about a week, we went on a great date. I talked about him while sitting on the beach with my mom. I said I never met anyone so determined to treat me well. She said that's how my dad was when they met. I knew he was special but I didn't know he would change my life and we would get married one day and have a beautiful little boy. Two years ago I didn't know I could be so happy, I didn't know I could have everything I never knew I wanted and be happier than I've ever been in my life! The two of them are my life, my entire world. They mean more to me than I could ever express in words! I am so lucky!
Since we are living our fairy tale we decided to go to the Renaissance Fair today so we could tour the ultimate in fairy tale land, a castle! I don't think we realized what we were in for though. It was a great people watching event and we had a blast!

Watching the Joust!




Almost getting eaten by a tree man!

Taking Kingston his first bus ride!



And of course we saw our castle!


What a great weekend with my wonderful husband and little bitty boy! I am so blessed!

Steeplechase-One Muddy Good Time!

I'm a little behind on the Steeplechase post but with it being mother's day and my birthday week we've been a little busy. This year some of our friends got a tailgating spot at Steeplechase and invited us to go so we decided to do that instead of going out of town for my birthday! It was an absolute blast! There was mud everywhere but that somehow made it more fun!

Yes I wore white! Probably not the best decision I've ever made but it all worked out! And my beautiful hat was decorated by my wonderful husband! Who knew he was so good with flowers he sure didn't! It was a great day!


Then to make the weekend even better I got a yummy cake decorated by Kingston and Alfred! How did they know to get me my 2 favorite things Kingston's artwork and cake!

Eller Happenings!

The last 2 weeks have been a little hectic. Alfred and I took turns getting strep throat so we spent the better part of a week laying on the couch feeling pretty miserable. Luckily Kingston felt great and took the opportunity to explore the drawers and cabinets a little further!
Finally by Cinco De Mayo we felt a lot better so we had the Brewer's over for tacos and Mexican beer. Alfred thought it would be a funny idea to paint goatees on him and Kingston.

And of course I had to join in the fun!

And when Riley got there he had to have a mustache too!

What a fun night! Kingston is in Macon visiting his grandparents this weekend while Alfred and I go to Steeplechase as an early Birthday present to me! It should be a great time and I should have lots to tell you about on Sunday! Have a great weekend!
