Saylor Grace

On Wednesday, Oct. 13, one of my best friends from high school, Heather (Coffman)Williams had her very first baby-a little girl she and her husband Josh have named Saylor Grace. I was so lucky to be able to watch Saylor be born, along with my other close friend and Heather's cousin Sara as we acted as "official" camera and film persons for Saylor's first moments. I loved getting to hold her.



It was such a special day and I am grateful I was able to be part of it. I definitely came home with baby fever, much to Jed's chagrin. Don't hold your breath though, more kids for this couple are still a few years off. We are enjoying our time with Keller right now, and he is way more than enough for us to handle. I can't imagine adding anymore!
Sara and I came up with the great idea to decorate Heather's house for when she came home from the hospital. I was thinking a sign in the yard, some streamers, a few balloons. It all sounded great to Sara, except  for the "few" balloons. She had other ideas on balloons.

Isn't the monkey adorable?
The woman had 5 bouquets of balloons! They took over the whole living room! It was so much fun though laughing and trying to figure out where to put them all. When we were done everything looked so fantastic and Heather is still speaking to me after getting home, so I take that as a good sign too! 
Speaking of signs. Here is one more as Sara prepares the stork to put out in the front yard. We did well!

Terra Verde sings at Rivermont

I say it all the time, but I will say it again--we are SO HAPPY that we have found Terra Verde Discovery School for Keller to attend. This year has been amazing. We have gone from having a child who HATED going to school everyday the last two years to having a little boy who can't wait to get there in the morning.  His teacher, Ms. Lindsay Berryhill, is an amazing woman who has gotten Keller to tune in and love learning.  Among the wonderful things he has done in first grade this year, including learning Mandarin, having a lemonade stand to earn money to build an animal hospital for dramatic play, visiting The Orr Family Farm, having a manners lunch at Charlestons, and many more things, he also had the opportunity to sing Christmas carols with his 89 other school mates at Rivermont Retirement Home.  The seniors at the home were so entered by these children and we were truly impressed with how well they all behaved. The singing was excellent, but what was truly inspiring w...

It's been ENTIRELY too long!

Clearly Keller is distraught that it has been so long since my last posting. It has been almost two weeks since my last blog post. These last two weeks at school have been so busy that when I come home at night the last thing I want to do is get on the computer. Plus, working so much has not left me ample time to get good shots of Keller. When we're playing and he does something funny I never have the camera around. However, as a good change of pace I do have some good video taken from this weekend. My mom keeps Keller 2-3 days a week and for some reason she decided the boy does not have enough toys. As if...(haha, throwback to Clueless). So, she decided Keller needed to work on being the next Tiger Woods (before all the you know). Anyway, this is Keller with his very first set of golf clubs. At first glance, he seems like a natural... Doesn't it look like he hit the ball right into the cup and is now getting the ball out of his hole-in-one? We he did get it in the cup ...
