It's only getting better...

Sometimes I miss Brody being that little tiny baby that I lugged everywhere on my hip. It was just him for 2 1/2 years. And he and I did everything together. He truly was my little buddy.

Brody ~ 6 months old 

Things have gotten busier around our house. We've added new little buddies. He is much more independent now. But, as I helped him get ready for his first game of the season last night, as I shared in his excitement as we slipped on his Braves jersey and pulled his red socks up high, it hit me once again that nothing has really changed. He will always be my little friend. Our time together may look a little different now, but I have to admit. Watching him give it all he's got when it's his turn to bat, or cheering him on when catches the ball and tags a runner out...it's just as exciting as watching him take those first steps. Makes my heart swell just as much as it did the first time he smiled at us. Do I sometimes miss him being a baby? Of course. But this season in his life is awesome too. Now I get to watch him put everything he's got into the game. A game I love. And I get to be his biggest cheerleader. And he has two little brothers, sitting in the stands yelling for him, who think he is the best baseball player in the world. It's only getting better...

So, all of that to say, here are pictures from Brody's first game of the year! Go Braves!

This little guy has many years of sitting in ballparks ahead of him. I hope he thinks it's as fun as we do!

You can't really tell in this picture, but he was yelling and clapping as loud as he could!

Beckett kept us all cooled down with a misting fan. This was my view about 75% of the game.

Everytime he would get up to bat, he would point and tell his Daddy where he was going to hit it. Love it.

Score!

Great game Braves!!! Can't wait until next week!!!

Beckett Webb ~ 2 years old (A Video)

I love the interviews so much that I do with Brody, so I wanted to start them with Beckett at age 2. I decided it would be fun to do a video for his first one, because I knew his little answers would be short, and this would show his personality. He was a little preoccupied, but we managed to get it done. Here is Beckett Webb at 2 years old!

Lately {Part 2}

Just trying to finish loading all of my phone pics to the blog!

I sure enjoy when Miss Eden joins us for the day. It's always fun to have another girl around!

Uncle Tony and Aunt Carrie gave this little glo worm to Levi when we were in Fayetteville last weekend. But it looks like someone else has taking a liking to the little guy!

Jessica, my friend from church, and I took the kids to Monroe to eat and do a little shopping. She has three boys also, and they are very close in age to my boys. It's so nice having someone to call who is in the exact stage of life as me, who always understands what I am going through. She even quit her job to stay home with her kids when her 3rd was born, so we really are right there together in everything! So thankful for her!

Brody and Jonah were in school, so we just had the youngest 4 with us. We ate lunch at Chick-Fil-A. Seriously the best place to eat with little kids. John Tyler and Levi hung out in their high chairs while Beckett and Jaxon explored the play area.

Then we hit the mall!

Beckett and I joined Amie and Luke on the day Luke was having his 18 mo pics made. We were hoping to be able to help get a few smiles out of him. Jana snapped this picture of Luke and Beckett...isn't it precious?! It's so funny to us that Luke and Levi will actually be in the same class in school rather than Luke and Beckett. Luke's birthday is in late August, so he barely misses the cut off, which puts him in Levi's class. I know that the difference won't seem so huge once Levi is a little older, but for now it just seems funny.

Brooke's 2nd grade GT class took a trip to Memphis this week, so I made arrangements for Brody and Beckett here at home, and Levi and I tagged along! I'm always up for a trip! Mom and Brooke rode the tour bus with the other students, and we followed behind them in my car. Levi must have gotten the memo that his behavior on the trip up to Fayetteville was not cool, because he was AWESOME all the way to Memphis. I honestly don't think he fussed once. He just slept and played.

Brooke, Megan, and I waiting to go into the IMAX theater at the Pink Palace.

Levi's first movie at the theater...and an IMAX at that!

Shopping at Wolfchase Galleria...

On Wednesday, we hit the Memphis Zoo!

Found me a new man while I was there ;)

The day ended up being pretty hot, and this dude was tired by the time we finished looking at everything! He was such a trooper though!

Goodbye Memphis! Until next time!

Lately {Part 1}

Here are a few iPhone pictures to catch up on what we've been up to!

Levi loves bathtime. He kicks and splashes and pours water on his head and enjoys every minute of it. I cannot wait to get him in the pool this summer. And I love bathtime because there is nothing sweeter than a freshly bathed, lotioned, jammied baby.

Luke came over to play with us one day last week, and Beckett was so happy to have a buddy for the day!

We have also kept Eden a couple times. It's so fun to watch these cousins play together. I am so glad they will always have each other. I love when my living room is full of babies!

Dude loves pancakes...what can I say.

We spent last weekend in Fayetteville visiting Uncle Tony and Aunt Carrie. Levi was not so nice on the way up. He thought it would be funny to shriek at the top of his lungs about 3/4 of the drive. It wasn't funny, Levi. Just letting you know. But I did catch a smile somewhere in there!

Levi got to go to his very first baseball game! Go HOGS!

When we made it back home on Sunday (and Levi totally redeemed himself...he rode fabulously), I had two very tired boys. Brody was still raring to go, but these two were zonked.

One day last week, I found Beckett in the bathroom, with scissors in his hand, and this on the counter. Oops.

That little incident resulted in this super short cut. It made me sad at first because I loved his long hair, but I really think he looks so cute. We will keep it short for summer and then I can grow it back out this fall.

And lastly, my baby boy got his graduations pictures in last week. This makes me so proud, yet want to cry, all at the same time. My boy is going to Kindergarten. It's absolutely true that when you have little ones, the days may seem long but the years pass so quickly. I am so proud of the little boy he is becoming.

We have been in Memphis the last couple days, so hopefully I will get those pictures up next! Happy Friday!
