Pictures

For Father's Day I had the idea of doing a "Dad" frame for Drew. I was so excited!! The only problem, is I couldn't find anybody to take pictures of Bellamy for me. Finally Leslie agreed so Meris and I headed over to Hosford for pictures!

All that weekend I kept stalking my email! I could hardly wait for them to come to me! Once I got'em, I was soooo excited!


























She is growing up way too fast! I just love her I pieces!!

Sunday Best

Some Sundays are easier then others to get a pretty good picture of Bellamy. Today was a tough day...


Spin tried posing with her...


I at least got a smile!

Painting

For Father's Day I got Drew a book about playing with daddy and I wanted Bellamy to out her handprints in it, but it didn't work out. Since I already had the paint out, I just let her have at it. Check out my little artist...





I love how she looks so methodical! She sure does love to paint!

After we got finished painting, we went blackberry pickin' again!


She was purple from head-to-toe! She was the cutest little blackberry I've ever seen!

Pop's Pics

Here is Bellamy playing Candy Land at Nana and Pop's...


All by herself next to a VERY expensive candelabra! Be careful Bellamy!

Flautist

This girl has got some rhythm!!

Not only does she play the flute but the harmonica, the piano, drums, guitar...pretty much anything!

Blackberry Pickin'

This year we have had the best blackberries right in our front yard! They are wild and delicious!! About two or three times a week we'd head out and get us a bag. We'd usually pick at least a quart everytime, but our little sweetie usually ended up about half of them!





She sure does love her blackberries!

Our Little Fish

Bellamy has absolutely ZERO fear of the water. Here's proof...


This is a shot from Olivia's birthday party! She and Brittyn were taking turns jumping off the side to me and apparently Brittyn wasn't getting out of the water fast enough! So Bellamy just jumped right on in!

On one hand I love that she loves the water, but on the other hand it scares me to DEATH!! Still love her though!

Sunday Best

It's another week and another Sunday! Here's Bellamy posing for daddy!


And now dressed and ready for church!





She just had to have her tiger in the picture! Trust me, it wasn't pretty trying to take it away! Pick your battles, Mama, pick your battles!

Saturday...

In the park! After we laid out one Saturday and Bellamy got up, I decided to take her to the park and let her run off some that never ending energy!

The only thing I dislike about the park is that it's hot and that all Bellamy wants todo is swing. Not that that's a bad thing, but when I take Bellamy to the park I want her to run! But no, she wants to relax in the swing while I do the work!





But looking at that face, how can I say no?! After we left the park, it was time to head back home. Bellamy didn't want to leave, so I bribed her with getting in the pool. Luckily she was good with that!

Once we got home, we got undressed and back outside we went...tomatoes an the pool, what a great combination!








She was in heaven...and I was in the shade! So we were pretty much both in heaven!

I Know It's Hot...




But this hot?! I've never seen this before! But what do you expect when you're outside in the Florida heat for an HOUR?!?!

Memorial Day Weekend

Over the Memorial Day weekend, Uncle Johnny and Aunt Diane came in for a visit, so we headed over to Bristol for church and a visit.

After a good morning at church and a wonderful afternoon lunch, we sat down or a visit. As we were sitting there catching up, we decided to have the kids make a movie for Chickie, Terah and Duncan...

On the way home, Bellamy was pooped! She passed out about 10 minutes after we left Bristol!


After we got home, she got a little pep in her step! She decided she wanted to build blocks, so we brought them out and got to work! She loves building towers, so that's exactly what we did!





We had a blast visiting! We love and miss Uncle Johnny and Aunt Diane!

Big Splash!

Here's Bellamy splashing in her pool.

She sure does love the water!

Sunday Best

Britain style...!











My little stinker! What a sweetheart!

Thank You...

Terah and Duncan for my surprises!!

YouTube Video

I love you so much! Can't wait to see you again!

Happy Mother's Day!

So the next day was Mother's Day and what a sweet day it was!! We decided to wear our coordinating outfits to church so we could finally get a family picture! Ad since we were going to church in Tallahassee, we were determined to get somebody to take it for us!

We will first start with Bellamy, who looks über cute in her getup!





Once we finally got up to Tallahassee we attended church and then rushed outside to take a picture! By this point Bellamy was done, so here are a few out takes of our family pictures!


This is about as good as we could get...


Yeah, not the best, but it got the job done! Next we headed over to Nana and Pop's for nap and then dinner! We had fun playing with all of our cousins and celebrating Nana! She loved Bellamy's flower pot, which we were sooooo happy about!

Here is one last shot of my little princess looking super cute!


I sure do love this little girl! Being a mommy to her has been the best gift I could ever ask for! She is sweet, loving, happy, and my little side kick! Hopefully it will always be this way! I love you my sweet girl!

Crafty

For Mothers's Day this year me and Meris decided to be crafty for our mother-in-laws. So we found an idea and got to work! We got all the supplies we needed for our butterfly footprint flower pots and got to work!

We met at Meris' and got everything ready. When it was time to call the kids down, we decided it would be better to being them down one-by-one. We started with Ryan (we didn't get any pictures of her...except her foot!)...


Then we moved to Brittyn...


Next up was Bellamy...





She had a ball! And lastly we painted up little Hunt...


They were all good sports and participated really well!

Once it was all said and done, I think they turned out super cute!


Hopefully they will love them!!

Tomatoes

At the beginning of the growing season, Aunt Becky have us quite a few tomato plants. We would go out everyday and check to see if we had any tomatoes and they never seemed to be ready.

Finally we went out there and Bellamy spotted her a juicy red tomato and picked it before we could tell her not to!


She was so excited!! Thanks Aunt Becky for all the yummy tomatoes!!
