Tim's aunt and her 3 girls stopped to see us during their vacation! It was the first time for them to see Sterling! It was a crazy and fun weekend! They did the D.C. thing all day Saturday and we had a picnic after church on Sunday!

Aunt Paula and Sterling

Breakfast on the terrace! Tim made biscuits and eggs!

Tim introduced the girls to honeysuckle after church!




It was a HOT day for a picnic!!! I think the temp was around mid 90's and the humidity around 93 which made for a heat index of about 118!!! Needless to say - we were a bit wilty by the end of the day!!!

Joni & Rick's Wedding!

I was privileged to get my hands into the flowers and help out making some of the arrangements for the wedding!

My little man was such a trooper! He was great company - and a great distraction : ) !!

I'm always amazed and blessed by how well Sterling does at events like these!!

The Nationals!! - June 6th

What a blast this day was!!!
My brother Logan, his friend Dan, and Sterling and I went over to D.C. on Friday to meet up with Tim. I took dinner so that we could eat at Tim's office before we went to the game. It was a perfect evening!!!

Waiting in the metro with Uncle Logan!

Such serious faces!

The boys!

Coming up out of the metro! We were lucky to get on the first train and were crammed in like sardines!!!




Check out this double chin!!!






Sterling was so good all night!! He took a nap on Tim's lap for part of the game.
Headed home

Ty's Birthday - June 2

A fun celebration of Ty's life. We had a lovely dinner at his and Jenna's house!

The birthday boy!

Auntie Jenna and the Boy!


Goofy boys!!

He is so ticklish!!! And his cute little laugh is so irresistible!!!

I love him so much!!!

I don't recall how much I've kept up with sharing Sterling's developments so here's a quick rundown...
May 11th (Mother's Day) - he rolled from his front to back for the first time
May - sometime around the middle of May he went from cooing to talking! Very funny!!!
June 1st - he got his first tooth
June 11th - he's now rolling over from back to front
June 13th - his second tooth is through the gum
June 13th - this morning was the first time that I've seen him want something that's out of his reach and be determined to get to it - and he did!!! He's not getting up on his hands and knees yet but it's clear that that's right around the corner!!!
It's mind boggling how fast they grow and develop at this age!!!
I just love these of him!! I actually just took them yesterday! I'm almost caught up to date so I'm letting myself slide again : )
