On Monday, August 15, at 9:40 am, we welcomed sweet little Sophie Claire into this world. She weighed in at 7 lbs 4 oz and was 20.5 inches long. Here are a few pictures of her first few days.
Look at all that hair!
Happy Birthday Sophie!
We are truly enjoying Sophie. She sleeps a lot, which is nice for her tired mom. Unfortunately, it's mostly during the day, but that's ok. We're so excited to have Sophie in our family!
So this dress was my mother's day present. I love dresses like this. It's not a maternity dress but it totally works. And hopefully it can be worn after the baby comes too! I hope all of you moms out there had a wonderful mother's day!Easter was a lot of fun this year. Noah had a great time looking for his Easter basket that the Easter bunny hid and finding eggs outside. We had to hide eggs about 4 times because he kept wanting to look for them again. Below are some pictures we took after church. I think Noah sure does look snazzy!
Well, it's been a while since I've posted anything on our blog. I'm sorry! We still don't have internet at our house so it makes it difficult to keep everyone up to date. We are excited that spring is finally here! We've enjoyed beautiful weather lately and have had lots of fun playing outside again. Below are some random pictures from the last two months. I hope you enjoy them. 
As you can see, Noah is a silly little boy. He brings so much joy to Daniel and I. He is looking forward to the birth of a little sister in August! Yep, we're going to have a baby! Sorry it's taken to long to post this info. We're super excited to welcome a little girl into our family. I'll post a pregnancy pic soon. Until then, enjoy the wonderful weather and the joys of family. Noah's birthday was last Wednesday. He's 2 years old! Here are some pictures from his party on Saturday.
Yesterday we went to a pumpkin patch at Mitchell Farms in Collins, MS. This place was huge! They took us on a hay ride tour of their farm, and we got to see their sunflower fields, pumpkin vines, peanut patch, pond with ducks and geese, and corn maze. The last stop on the ride was the pumpkin patch where you got to pick a pumpkin to take home. They had a giant playground and an animal barn. They also had a snack bar and little store where you could buy peanuts, homemade salsa, jelly, and cute farm toys. It was a really fun place to visit.
We went to Natchez last weekend to the hot air balloon glow. All of the balloons that were participating in the race were gathered in one place and lit up their balloons at the same time for the balloon glow. It was really fun to watch. Noah loved seeing the balloons.
Noah turned 18 months old on August 2, and he is as cute as ever. He is running around and talking up a storm. He can even say a few 3 word sentences. He's making his speech therapist mommy proud! Noah is also starting to yell or have a tantrum when he doesn't get what he wants, which I don't enjoy. But we're learning how to deal with this together, and I'm sure we'll figure it out. He is still the joy of my life and makes Daniel and I so happy to be his parents. Here are a few pictures we took yesterday in the back yard.
Daniel has a skateboard and Noah loves to play with it and try to "ride" it. So on Monday we were at Megan and Cony's for dinner, and Noah found a little skateboard that belonged to Megan's nephew. Noah loved it and had to go outside to try it out. Megan took these great pictures of Noah trying to skateboard.
Here's a picture of the Mississippi River and the bridge from Natchez to Vidalia, which connects Mississippi and Louisiana.
