Memorial Weekend

Below are a few pictures from our family's first trip to the Lake. The last time we were there, it was 4th of July '08 and I had been released from the hospital from being soooo sick with my little bundle of joy pictured below! Needless to say, this trip was a much better one! Although the sun was not shining, it was nice to spend time with SugaPop and SugaMama. We basically ate, slept and fellowshipped! What more could you ask for? (well, maybe a little sun)


Harrison loves his chair that SugaMama bought him for Easter!

Although the sun only peeked out for a minute, Harrison was ready with his big boy hat and bathing suit.

It you look closely you can see that SugaPop and Harrison's shirts are matching with their names on them. They were adorable! They sported their shirts to the seafood restaurant.


Daddy loves that baby's sugar!

Somebody is very sleepy!

Wordless Wednesday

Catching up!

Well, after two weeks without a computer we are finally back in business! We have been quite busy!

Saturday we met Josh, Christen and the boys at Sonny's for dinner. Harrison was just a smiling at Camdyn and Cayde. Camdyn let Harrison borrow his Gator hat and he loved it! It was adorable watching them interact.

I woke up and caught Rudy in Harrison's play station on his boppy! One more thing for me to wash and clean. :)


On Wednesdays I participate in Westminster's Ladies Bible Study. Reed is Harrison's good buddy. They are 10 days apart. Angela and I had the same due date.

Mother's Day was so special! It was the happiest Mother's Day ever! I'm so thankful for my little man!





After Harrison's 4 month check up...shots! Oh, I hate when he has to get shots!

Aunt Sashy stopping by the office for her weekly visit!

Aunt Jade and Uncle Tina came over for dinner and to spend some time with Harrison. He loves his Aunt Jade!

For Dad's birthday in November I ordered these shirts that have his name and Harrison's name printed beside the baseball. They are really adorable.

He's one cool dude!

Harrison is always smiling and laughing! He is such a joy!

Fun in the Sun

Jesse preached at Ruhamah again on Sunday, so Dad came to hear him and then invited us over for steaks and swimming. This was Harrison's first time in his bathing suit that was too big for him. :) He of course had to sport his shades like Daddy and Papa.

Last Wednesday we stopped by West Nassau for a meeting with Mr. Booker and to see Mimi. Ms. Mae was my custodian all 4 years at WN. Every day we would talk about our struggle to get pregnant and she would pray for us. She was so excited to see the fruit of her prayers. She affectionately calls herself Grandmama Mae.

Fairwell to Ephesus

Yesterday was our last Sunday at Ephesus Baptist Church. As most of you know Jesse is a candidate at Ruhamah Baptist Church in Kingsland, GA. He preached there 3 weeks ago. One of the deacons called last night and said that they have narrowed it down to Jesse and one other preacher. So, Jesse is preaching there again this coming Sunday. Meanwhile we had already decided to go back to Westminster in Jax. until we hear something from Ruhamah. Pastor Jennings and Jesse have been discussing the possibility of a pastoral internship for Jesse at Westminster. So, needless to say we are praying for God's direction for our family. Please pray with us that the will of the Lord will be clear. We would love either position, so we just want the Lord to show us which one He would have us take. Anyways, I took some pictures with Harrison's Suga Mama and Suga Pop and Granny Pickett at Ephesus last night. Also, we had dinner with Josh and Christen Friday night. We always enjoy spending time with the Hinson's. Whom Harrison calls Uncle Josh and Aunt Higg. In high school, Valerie Libby, Kristen Jordan, Christen Higginbotham and myself had to call each other different names since there were 3 Kristin's -all spelled differently- so we call Kristen J., Sissy, Christen H., Higg, and they call me Bozie. :) Which is much better than what Jason Johns came up with "Bozo"!

Two weeks worth of pictures!

I haven't blogged in two weeks! We have been so busy! Harrison is growing and becoming sweeter by the day. Jesse made the comment last Sunday that he loves him more each day and I would have to agree! I think he is over the colic because he has been a different baby the past two weeks. He smiles constantly and I can actually put him down to cook and clean. Wow, what a difference that has made. :) He loves for us to talk to him. I'm beginning to see signs of laughter. I can't wait to hear his little laugh. Saturday, my Dad and Steven stopped by on the boat and took Harrison on his first boat ride. It was windy and they were having father/son time so we just rode for a few minutes, but he loved it! He enjoys going outside for a walk to the river every afternoon to watch Daddy row across the river. I've added some of those pictures too. It's hilarious! The boats name is "stinkbate." We didn't name it, but it sure fits. Uncle Mark and Aunt Darlene came over last weekend for dinner. We really enjoyed spending time with them. It was their first time meeting little Harrison (or should I say little Jesse, since he looks nothing like me!). Harrison also got his picture taken with Aunt Monica and Brandyn. That was before he threw up on her twice! Also, cousin Hannah celebrated her first birthday last Wednesday. I cannot believe she is already a year old! Time just goes by too fast! She is sweet and beautiful. She loves to pat Harrison on the head. Oh, and Harrison got his first taste of ice cream Friday night. When I wasn't looking Jesse and Dad thought it would be funny to give him a taste of Dairy Queen ice cream. Needless to say he loved it! Well, I think I covered it all...so much takes place over two weeks with a 3 month old! May the Lord give you and your family an abundance of grace this week!

Marvelling in God's grace,

Kristin
