WA is 3 1/2

Its been almost six months since I updated this blog, so here goes...

WA had a great Christmas.  He got lots of cars.
Winter was mild here, no snow except a few sprinkles one morning and it was gone by the sunny afternoon. 

WA was finally baptized at Church of the Messiah, here in our town.  Mom, Dad and his Godparents were present.  We took his Godparents out for lunch a week later to celebrate.



This spring we bought him a John Deere Gator for his half birthday.  I visited my friend Amy last year and her son had one and WA just loved it.  He drives that thing like a professional.

April was a very busy month.  WA had a visit to his Aunt's house (who he refers to as "Aunt Momma"), then home for baptism and Easter.  After Easter we left for Hilton Head Island.

We visited our usual vacation spot in Hilton Head Island, Sea Pines.  WA frolicked on the beach, rode ponies, went for numerous bike rides.  His cousins got to come over for a few days and he really had fun.  We tried some crafts I learned about from my awesome friend Amy, also known as Your Southern Peach.  These sailboats, and they were a hit.


It was chilly for most of the first half of the week, so the beach was cold.  I had this great photo opportunity with my two awesome nephews.


Then it warmed up closer to the end of the week.  I wanted to go to the beach after dinner on our last night to say goodbye to its beauty.  My Kentucky Gentleman got this great picture of WA and I.



We headed back home to start the month of May...


We put in a small garden for WA's nature education.  We have four tomato plants, two red pepper plants, and one each of zuchinni and straightneck yellow squashes.

We have been having a blast this morning on the $4 slip and slide I purchased at Target.  It's hot today.

We plan to visit the YMCA waterpark, Lake Anna Beach and our fabulous new backyard.  We have a kitchen remodel planned and bathrooms to paint.

Cheers!!

Momma

  1. I know WA is loving the gator if he's anything like my boys! I make mine haul bags of potting soil and garden tools for me and they love it!

    Congrats on his baptism too. I know that's a special day for all. Really love those little sail boat jellos and now you've inspired me to finally make them too.

    Glad y'all enjoyed vacay and thanks for linking over to YSP. You're my favorite peach :)
