My Dad's 50th Party!!!

Last weekend we got to spend time celebrating my dad turning 50! It was so much fun and everything went perfect. Friday we went down after Jordan got off and started off a fun filled event to honor my dad. He had so much fun and it was so special to make this man the center of attention for an evening. He has lived his whole life being selfless and making others feel loved that it was wonderful to have family and friends show that back to him. I'm so proud of my dad and love watching him be a grandpa-it's so cute and he has so much fun too! here are just some photos from his party! 

Joe Joe taking Cooper swimming at the club-he loves a golf cart ride!

 all the guys golfing wore tall socks, because my dad will come home from work and put on shorts with his work socks everyday

 he's a big kid at heart-so we did mickey mouse, we are already planning our 1st trip to disney :)

 guest of honor! 

 little baby brooks got to meet his nana pat and bobo, we love these people so much! 

 this child was slightly confused that the party was not for him, haha. he had just as much fun as anyone

 i love these men so much! 

 so thankful for this sweet friend and that I got to meet her little one! 

 breakfast with Joe Joe on his birthday- sweet photo. He had just told Joe Joe he wasn't hungry, then consumes his whole egg and toast! 

This weekend was spent with our Wright family and did my boys have fun! Cooper was spoiled with all kinds of activities and I'm sure Brooks had more love than he could ask for. I was able to slip away and go celebrate my bestie Jill at her bachlorette party. She is such a dear friend and it was so fun being with life long friends-I couldn't have asked for a better weekend! 

some 3 month favorites :)

too busy looking at my feet to smile 

 lots and lots of kisses from brother these days, he's getting better with "gentle" 

 cooking brother a burger

 and cooper's attempt to make brooks wave and say "cheese" for the camera 

I love seeing Brooks light up when he watches Cooper. Our new favorite activity is all 3 setting down and reading a book. Cooper actually listens to the whole book and Brooks just "talks" through the whole thing-its so sweet!

Baby Brooks is 3 months!!

My sweet little one is 3 months and it has all gone way to fast. My heart explodes with love for this little guy. He is 14lbs and just a big, long guy. He wears size 2 diapers, 3-6 month clothes, eats every 3-4 hours during the day and at night "typically" goes 8-5.

He has increased his "talking" and watching his big brother-which is the cutest thing ever!!!

I have had some concerns about this little guy and am prayerfully taken them to The Lord to protect his development and help us know how to help Brooks.

Brooks loves to read, dance and sing with us. Our home is always a party! He doesn't take a passy, he doesn't mind his car seat, and he is the most chill baby ever.

We have a fun, busy August ahead and are so happy to be doing it with these little guys too!

PS-do all second children get the "baby" in their names. I really think cooper thinks that's his name :)

Brooks' Baby Dedication

Proverbs 3:3-4

3Let love and faithfulness never leave you;

    bind them around your neck,

    write them on the tablet of your heart.

4Then you will win favor and a good name

    in the sight of God and man.

Today was a sweet day for our family as we dedicated Brooks to the Lord and promised to our Father to do all we can through prayer, love, teaching and faith to show him Christ. Fun day with family and our dear community group to pray for this little boy-that means so much to me. 

sweet cookies from Holly :)

 His little outfit

 family photos! 

 our dear Ferrin joined us for lunch. She loves our boys so much and I'm so thankful for her in their lives. 

 We enjoyed lunch at Dixie Cafe

 Our afternoon was spent with Nana and Joe Joe before they headed home. Then as a family of 4 we went to the "bolf" course or GOLF course :) such a fun evening!
