Last Months in Memphis

We have 1 week left in Memphis... I can hardly believe it. Brett finished his last day of residency on Friday and takes his boards 1 week from today. Then, he is driving the Penske truck all the way up to Burlington with my dad. It's going to be a crazy 2 weeks!

I have hardly blogged this spring because we've been so busy with everything. I wanted to post the pictures from our last few months in Memphis!

In March, Taylor learned to ride her big girl bike... she has loved it! She can now ride all the way around the block by herself. I am getting some exercise pushing Will in the stroller behind her! She can go pretty fast... :)

Brett and Will spent some last days in his garage... Will loves his "da da." He says da da constantly!

We've been playing as much as possible on the swingset...



Here we are at our church's Easter egg hunt.

Gram had the Easter bunny come by and visit at her house... Will loved it!

We had some pictures taken at our church by one of my good friend's cousin, Christi. She did a great job working with our crazy family.






Taylor loves to give and receive haircuts... fortunately for her, Will has lots of good hair to work with. Poor Will!

On Mother's Day with my sweet ones...


Will is crawling now! He can get around fast... just in time for packing up the house! He's *very* helpful.


Brett's 31st birthday at Chickasaw... they really go all out on their candles!

First time in a swimming pool for Will...


Tay with LG... they are going to miss each other!

Tay's last day of Sunday school...

On Father's Day...


Here are the pictures from Brett's OB/GYN Awards reception. Brett got the REI award!

With his fellow residents...

As a joke, the 3rd year residents gave out "golden speculum" awards... love that OB/GYN humor!

Our sweet friends had a wonderful going away party (Bye Bye BBQ) for us... we had the BEST time. We are going to miss everyone so much!!

Facebook... finally

I have finally given in to facebook... only because we are moving to Burlington! As many of you have politely suggested, this will help us stay connected to our friends here.

I hope Betty White's wrong, and it's not a huge waste of time!! :)

Happy Easter!

Sesame Street Live

We went with the Adair family to Sesame Street Live last week. Honestly, it was worth every single penny... Taylor had the best time. It was hilarious to watch. Lilley Grace screamed like a teenage girl at a Justin Bieber concert.... and Taylor wouldn't stop dancing and watching intensely.

I made the girls matching Elmo dresses... they were so cute together!

Sandestin Spring Break

We went back to Sandestin this year for spring break with Mimi and Grandaddy. The weather was beautiful... warm enough and sunny. We left Will in Memphis with Brett's mom (Grammy), and I think Taylor enjoyed all of the attention! She had a blast...

She loved the ocean, even though it was still freezing.
She did great in the pool too... for the first time, she swam around by herself with the swimmies. She made laps around the little island in the pool.
We had a lot of fun at the Bayside area... we ate a bunch of oysters for appetizers, let Taylor ride the merry-go-round, then ate crab legs.

Thanks again Grandaddy and Mimi!!

Will's Half Birthday

Will is 6 months old now!

He is still such a sweetie... but he wants to be involved in everything! He is also becoming more vocal, which he is learning gets him more attention! Will loves to watch and "play" with Taylor... it's adorable.

So proud he can sit up!

And he loves to swing outside... we are enjoying the early spring weather right now.

At his 6 month check-up...


Played too hard and ate too much!

Here are some more pics I took on his 6 month birthday.



We love you, Will, and are so thankful for you!

Will's Baptism

Here are some pics from Will's baptism a couple weeks ago... what a special time for our little family! I'm already getting sentimental about leaving our church here in Memphis... we love it so dearly.




I decided to make Will's gown at the last minute... I made it in about a week amongst getting our house on the market, Brett working nights, and potty training. It was a little crazy, but I'm glad I did it now!

We had a lunch at our house after the service for family.
