Atlanta Shower

The weekend of June 5-7, Justin and I headed back to Atlanta. This was our last planned trip prior to the baby's arrival.

The visit went as most others do - arriving Thursday night, El Torero Friday night, seeing friends on Saturday, heading back out on Sunday.

El Torero didn't let us down. It's the best order by number Mexican we've found. I personally can't wait to have a margarita in a couple of months!!

On Saturday, Rachel hosted a Shower BBQ for us. The idea was to hold an event that both guys and girls would enjoy. I think Rachel pulled it off! The majority of the day was spent catching up with everyone. We quickly covered through the shower activities inside. Thanks everyone for the great gifts, the interesting baby names, and most importantly coming to celebrate with us!

We had a great time - it was so fun to see everyone. We're looking forward to seeing everyone later this summer once the little one has arrived.

I've posted pictures below.

Spencer Time

A few recent pictures of Spencer. He is growing like crazy and picking up all sorts of new skills like grabbing toys on the playmat, grabbing blankets or clothes and shoving them in his mouth, and his new favorite pastime, putting his feet in his mouth (with or without socks!).     Learning all the tricks on his first flight. We lucked out and got an extra seat for his carseat (ok, I lucked out, but still...)  Sleepy times with Grandma    Enjoying a new toy!   Such a big boy

Called up

This weekend, the t-ball team was short a few players. Spencer was called up from the practice team to fill in. He was one of the smallest on the field, but played well, even teaming up with Jack for an out!

Growing up

Jack and Spence "graduated" from their respective preschool programs in the last couple of weeks. While the road along the way wasn't always the smoothest, the outcome couldn't be better. At Spencer's 2s club event, the kids demonstrated all the new skills they had learned in the gym. Lots of forward rolls, big jumps on the trampoline, and amazing core strength. The kids then enjoyed their favorite book of the year: mean soup. Afterward each child received an award. Spencer followed Jack's footsteps on this part by refusing to go up to accept the award. Regardless, we were so proud of Spence. He loved having his independence, being involved in a class, making new friends, and just having fun. Next year Spence starts preschool at the Y. Jack's tender care graduation was last friday. The event was held in the Little Theater at the Y. Jack was so excited to be on the stage. The class sang several songs ending with what has to be the anthem of kids 3...
