We headed to Monroeville, Al. Friday evening a few weekends ago and spent the weekend at my parents house. My sister was there with her three precious babies and my sister Sara came in town late saturday evening. We had such a great time. It was fun to all be together and watch all the babies play.
It was such a beautiful weekend. Ellen and Cole enjoyed playing and running around outside. My parents have this little red wagon and the twins had so much fun riding in it and pulling it. Jack and William still aren't too mobile these days so they would just sit and watch what Ellen and Cole were doing. Once we put the twins down for a nap we decided to put Jack and William's bumbo seats in the wagon and take them for a ride. It was sooo cute. They weren't sure what to think but I'm pretty sure they just enjoyed being outside. It was also the perfect picture moment and we got plenty of cute ones.

Rob and his twin!! |
We had some wonderful surprise visitors late Saturday afternoon from the Spencer's. It was so great to see them!!
Saturday evening my Aunt Ty and my cousin Erin came in town and they ate dinner with us. Luckily all the babies go down fairly early so we were able to enjoy a glass of wine (or 2), a delicious dinner and visiting.
Sunday, March 11, 2012 Jack was baptized at the First United Methodist Church, my home church. It was such a special day!! It was so wonderful having our family there for such a special occasion!

Our families christining gown |

Our beautiful boy! So before you say anything about him being in a dress, it's not a dress, it's a gown. It's been in our family for 63 years. It was made for my dad's sister. His sister's wore it, he wore it and most everyone on my dads side of the family wore it. Me and my sisters wore it and my sisters babies, Ellen and William wore it. It is so special to have such a treasure that has been passed down in our family!! |
After church we went back to my mom's house and took some pictures then ate a yummy breakfast. My wonderful mother had made a breakfast casserole, grits and a coffee cake and my incredible Aunt Ty brought some wonderful fruit!
