A NEW POST!!!!

A few weeks ago we went to the Halloween Zoo Days with Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Patty, and Elijah... here are some picsBefore we left I made Daddy some lunch with a bowl of popcorn... Preston ended up eating more of it than Daddy did:) When we got there we realized they were handing out trick or treat candy to the kids, so Preston and Elijah got to try a tootsie roll pop...yumWith our zoo memberships we were able to hop a ride on the train

Preston and Elijah also got to ride the carousel for their first time

Random Pictures

Lets be honest there was a while where I really didn't post... I think it was pretty much all of September actually... so I wanted to put some random pictures up from that month:) I never thought this would happen...but I actually think that I have rubbed off on my sister, Eva... she hasn't been posting! What are we to do? So I'm hoping that by posting she will see the error in her ways and post some pictures for us:) He loves his breakfast in the mornings
This is one of his favorite hiding spots... to bad someone has to lift him up to the top of the tv cabinet to get there though:)
New fall pjs...gotta love 'em!
He decided to beat up on Daddy...
when is Preston gonna learn not to pick on the big kids?


We had a garage sale mid September and these are pictures from it. The first day was really rainy so Preston got to play out in the rain for the first time... he thought it was pretty cool. He also found out what a Capri Sun is... he sucked that thing down real fast:)How cool is that puddle? Seriously!He tried sitting down in it, and soon realized that was not so funSo he got back up and started splashing again

Man do we love this little guy... he has brought us so much joy... thank you Jesus:)

Putt- Putt

Saturday night we went with Grandma and Grandpa Putt-putting. It was Preston's first time... and he loved it:)
This is him walking onto his first green. It was funny to see his reaction to what we were doing. He didn't want to hit his ball so far away from himself.
Daddy helped him out with his first putt
Then Mommy helped him on the next one.
He decided it was much easier to just walk his ball over to the hole and put it in himself.
Then he would lean back over and pull it right back out:)


Preston kept trying to hit Grandpa's ball of this mat. It was funny seeing Grandpa trying to hit the ball before Preston did. :)

This golfing thing takes a lot out of you...Preston takin his turnWhen Mommy was little we used to go to the pet store that is next door to the putt-putt. We decided to continue the tradition with Preston:)

(I just wanted to throw this picture in) This morning as I was ironing I put in Toy Story 2 for Preston. Movies never really grab his attention too much... but today he sat down in front of the tv and watched very attentively... how cute is that? :)

FaNtAsTiC!

Today was very exciting... and we got it all on camera:) Preston invited Daddy to a picnic today during his lunch break. While Mommy was getting the lunch together, Daddy showed Preston the pool and his slide.On a side note... notice Preston's Phillie jersey...courtesy of Breezy:)
Daddy and Preston sitting down to lunch (That is a chip sticking out of Preston's mouth... silly kid)The lil stinker kept eating Daddy's chips instead of his sandwichFinally Preston got what he really wanted... Watermelon... yum (He absolutely loves it)

Sorry... I guess I didn't get it all on camera... because we didn't get any of the pool. But hey... 2 out of 3 ain't bad:)

The Fine Art of BODY SLAMMING!

That's right... Daddy has been teaching Preston to body slam. This has been going on for a while now, but Mommy finally got pictures of the boys in action the other day.

Daddy decided to teach Preston to body slam his poor puppy... boys....

Preston decided to follow in his Daddy's footsteps and body slam the unsuspecting animal....

You gotta watch out for Daddy though... because he turned around and body slammed both of them

Kinda a fuzzy picture...but still cute:)

Family Vacation in New Jersey

Here are some pictures of our first little family trip to New Jersey to visit Breezy and Jon.
Preston tried helping me pack by getting into the suitcase himself

He loved getting to walk around the aquarium

A cool pic of the shark tank

Sittin' back and enjoying a soft pretzel

This was outside the aquarium... a good view of the Philadelphia skyline

On Saturday we were able to go down to their Jersey shorehouse to spend the night. Preston was able to see the ocean for the first time. This is a shot of the house as we were walking in.

This is Daddy and Preston in their kitchen when we first arrived.

Outside the house getting ready to see the beach

Daddy showing Preston the ocean.

This is a picture from the beach view of their shorehouse.

So... the question most asked is "What did Preston think of the beach?"... ummm... let's just say this is as close to the sand he would get. He wasn't a big fan... but it was his first time playing with sand.... so I'm sure eventually he'll love it... just not that day:)

He was more than happy to stay on the towels and play though

This is a picture of their pool off one of the balconies. I thought the picture turned out really cool so I wanted to post it.

Here is Daddy and Preston Sunday morning on the second story porch overlooking the beach.

We had such a great time on our trip. We just wanted to thank Breezy and Jon once again for having us out there and keeping us busy with lots of fun stuff. My only regret is that I didn't take pictures at Breezy and Jon's house, so I didn't have pictures to put on here. They have a beautiful home though, and Breezy is awesome at interior design so she has it decorated so neat... I just wish that I could have shown that. Thank you again Breezy and Jon! We already miss you!
