Keegan's Circles

Keegan has a new favorite game, and that's playing "helicopter." He just started doing it a couple days ago, and this is the first time I've been able to catch it on camera (the second I leave the room to get the camera, Keegan will stop spinning and follow me). Enjoy!

Rule #164. Be punctual and insist on it in others.

More Summer Days

Well, temperatures here have been reaching between 100˚F and 110˚F (37˚C-43˚C) so, what not a more perfect time to go swimming then now? We still have at least another full month of summer ahead of us (September is sure to be rainy here in good ol' Louisiana) so I'm sure we'll be visiting the pool quite often.

Looks like my little boys eyes are staying blue. Sometimes, they do look kind of green too.
Look at him kneeling down like that. He's so strong :)
Hehe, this is one of my favorites from the day.
Playing in his turtle. Jonas and I are having a debate - should this turtles name be "Troy" or "Bill"?

The men playing with the babies.
This is Kalie's nephew Finley and her daughter Avery.
He doesn't look too happy in these pictures but he did have a good time.
Rule #163. Take and overnight train trip and sleep in a Pullman.

A Spitting Image

Well I was scrolling through the blog and found these two pictures next to each other and immediately thought "There's no doubt who's going to win the new poll."  

Congratulations Brianne!

I've recently found out that my oldest cousin Brianne is pregnant! I am so excited for her and her husband Jeff, who she's been married to for two years now.  What an awesome gift!  I can't wait to see the little one :) Congratulations!

Hot Fun

Yesterday was a nice day outside.  Well, it was really really hot, but in comparison to most days, it was the perfect temperature for a family walk and for the kids to swim.

I know it's been a while since I put the rules up, but I'm going to start again since I've found the book.  Yes, that means we're still in the process of unpacking, but we have to find some furniture before finishing the rest.  I'll get those pics up of the house soon, I promise.  

Rule #162.  Keep your desk and work area neat.

Finally Back Home!

Sorry I haven't written in here much lately; as you know, Keegan and I went back to Georgia for a few weeks.  My laptop decided to stop charging while there so I had to wait until I got back to post anything.  

On July 2nd, we went to a store called Horsetown and bought Keegan a new out

fit, including a camo onesie, Wrangler jeans, and some John Deere boots.  H

ere he is sitting on an alligator skin saddle.  He looks silly because he stuck his tongue out right before the picture was taken, haha.  

That night, we went to the Stone Mountain Park Laser Show with the same group.  It was so awesome, it had been about eight years since my last trek to the show.  Keegan wasn't too interested in the laser portion of the show (which really was spectacular - I recommend everyone see the show at least once in their life), but he LOVED the fireworks.

On July 4th, I went to Abbey's family cookout with Keegan and my good friend Jeramy.  Abbey's friend Kevin met up with us there and joined us for the remainder of the night.  Keegan was the center of attention (of course), and I discovered there that he, like Jonas, loves watermelon.  We then went to my mom's neighborhood cookout, where Keegan met his new best friend, Gracie and Shay.  These little girls (7 and 8 years old) fell in love with Keegan, and so did their mother.  That night, Keegan had his very first sleepover! He stayed with that family all night.  Abbey, Jeramy, Kevin and I then went to fireworks at my old high school, Roswell HS.  The only good picture I have from the night is of Abbey and Kevin.

Keegan had a playdate with my friend Ashley's son Ben.  Ashley brought her friend who has two children, Tamara and Taylor.  Taylor is 3 and Tamara is 11 days younger than Keegan, so almost 10 months.  Ben is 11 months and Ashley is expecting another little boy in November, so congratulations to her!  Getting four children together would've been a 

great photo op, had any of them been interested.  I did the best I could.  :)

I got to see a lot of my high school friends while I was in town.  I also got to eat at my favorite restaurant TWICE, Benihana.  The nearest Benihana to me here is in Dallas, three hours away.  Here are some random pictures taken while there.

He hasn't fallen asleep on me since he was a newborn.
