Look Who's Seven Months Old!

Happy Seven Month Birthday, George!


For the sake of consistency I must post, but yikes am I behind or what {his nine month birthday is tomorrow!}.

Luckily I take notes...Month seven brought sleeping on his tummy, a love of peas, a cross country road trip and a love for grabbing anything and everything.

Love this sweet baby boy!!!

Scenes from the weekend...

I live for the weekend but especially a long weekend.  I would be so good with having a long weekend once a month.  Yes please!  We spent our holiday weekend enjoying the company of B’s brother and his wife.  G was so excited to have his Aunt Amy and Uncle Caleb in town!  We got a babysitter and enjoyed a night out with a Love and Theft concert at the Country Music Hall of Fame and dinner at the Southern.  Amy and Caleb headed back early Sunday morning to pick up their kiddos so our little family of three relished in the laziness of a rainy afternoon and night in, just us.  Spent Monday getting ready for our beach trip {YAY!} with a trip to Target…unfortunately Costco was closed.  Good for them but bad for me {I so wanted to take that amazing jalapeno Greek yogurt dip!}.  Got all our laundry done, and the car is packed.  We are officially beach bound!

George's Baptism

Cannot believe it was two weeks ago everyone was here for George’s baptism.  What a special weekend spent with family and friends.  I was so humbled by all that came in town {from so far} and filled with joy over the community of friends we have established here in Nashville.  I have always thought of myself as an emotional and sentimental person but since becoming a mom, I am such a softie!  I felt like the whole weekend I was tearing up at the tiniest of gestures.  I have a feeling I will be like this for all of G's big moments. :)

 Since family and friends traveled from so far, I knew people would want to get back on the road right after church on Sunday.  So instead of a brunch, we hosted a dinner that Saturday night.
I had everyone write a prayer and blessing for George.  I know this will be something special for him to look back on as he gets older.

My dessert bar was complete with Casa Linda petit fours all the way from Big D!

A delicious spread!



 


Our dear friends Beth and Justin are G's Godparents.














Everyone in our small group was there to watch George be baptized.  Meant so much having them there and am beyond thankful for this incredible community of friends.

Our wonderful nanny!
