The Nursery

Kevin took these pictures of our nursery to share with his mom. I thought others might enjoy seeing them as well.


This bedding is called "Leap Froggy". I loved that it was gender neutral and that we can use it for our future children as well.





This blanket was given to Andrew by my dad (Papa) when he was at a conference in Mexico. Andrew loves how soft it is and sleeps on it in his crib.



My mom and I found this cross at a local artists store in Knoxville. We bought it many months before we had a clue we would ever receive Andrew and the verse has meant a lot to me during the adoption process.




Our friends Cortney and Andrew gave us this tile at Andrew's baby shower. I had never seen one before and I loved it! This is the same rocking chair that my mom rocked me in when I was an infant. Kevin and I have spent many hours in this rocker with Andrew :)











Four Months

It has been awhile since I've blogged due to our crazy schedules lately :) Since my last post, Andrew turned four months old. He had his four month check-up which was great. He now weighs 17 pounds and is 26 inches long. He is eating solid foods, which I'll save for a later post :) He is in the 90th % for weight and the 95th % for height. We love how big our little guy is and even though he still wakes up to eat every night, I'm thankful that we don't have feeding issues with him like so many of our friends and family have with their sweet ones.

Our First Trip to the Zoo

I know that when I decided to buy a zoo pass it was really more for my benefit as Andrew is a little young to enjoy the animals, but since he loves being outside and I love getting out of the house, I figured it was a good idea :) Andrew did great during his first trip, he even sat in his stroller for the first time without his carseat! It wasn't just Andrew's first trip to the zoo, it was his friend Blaire's as well.

One of the black bears. He really wasn't this close, we just have a pretty good camera :)
The penguin exhibit.
The butterfly exhibit was amazing!!

Our First Visit!

We had a great time with everyone on Tuesday :) We are looking forward to having another visit in July. We received an email from church stating that they need to delay Andrew's dedication since they accidently booked another dedication that day. We will let you know as soon as we have another date set. We hope you enjoy the pictures :)
