Everett's aquarium adventure


Mimi and Pop









those hippos are crazy


best seat in the house


like father

like son



I'm pretty sure there's no cooler place for a three year old... or a 29 year old for that matter. It was a perfect birthday present and an awesome day together as a family. I love watching him discover stuff and ask questions and I especially love going on adventures with him!

happy half birthday

It's hard to believe that it's been six months already, but the proof is in the pudding. You are definitely growing and changing. I love it, but feel like it's going so fast this time around.



If I could sum you up in one word it would be happy. All the time with the smiles. You've got this adorable little dimple and just this month your first little tooth. Every time anyone even looks at you, you flash this sweet smile. It is so darn cute. I wish I could bottle up these days and your sweetness.








The other word to describe you is laid back. You are so calm and relaxed. You just seem to go with the flow. Nothing seems to bother you (unless it involves me not feeding you). You put up with all kinds of love from your brother and still think he's the most hilarious person of all time. 





The past six months have been an absolute gift. I am so smitten with you. 
happy half birthday my littlest love.

three whole years

Everett-
I am so thankful to be your mama. You teach me how to love better, see the little stuff, laugh a lot, pause for a good back scratch, sing Jesus loves me 87 times a day, have dance parties, use my imagination, practice my patience, and how to find favorite things every day. This year has brought new adventures and your "baby brother Graham buddy" to join us in those adventures. You are wild and crazy and smart and just so full of life. I wouldn't have it any other way. Being your mama is such an unbelievable, incredible gift.


Words can't express how much I love you little boy and just how very proud of you I am.
Happy (third) birthday.

xoxo- Mama
