The Birthday Boy is 3!
Jayden turned 3 on Friday (June 11). We had his party a few weeks ago when our families were here for graduation. It's hard to believe he's been in our lives for three years. We are incredibly grateful to share life with him. The kid is the same (personality/quirks) as ever...always keeps us humble:)
Thomas Party!
The coolest present ever from our new friends the Dugdales! Mommy loves this tent because it fold up completely flat and take up no space at all when it's not being played with...
Daddy and the birthday boy at the Splash Pad.
Enjoying some yummy cake our friend Katie made especially for Jayden.
Family picture...gotta take what you can get (even if it involves swimsuits). Too bad I wasn't turned to the side so you could see my torpedo tummy.
Two of my favorite people...love you!
Auntie's boy.
"Miss Luan" with Joci, Gabbie (our first ever friends), Jayden and Journey. This is typical you see because when these four are together they all want to be in the same 2x2 space:) We are really going to miss our twin friends (who happened to only be 8lbs a piece when we moved in together).
The coolest Thomas cake ever....
My good friend Melonie and her pearl-wearing beauty queen, Selah Daisy.
My high school friend Alisa with her way-to-old-looking, beautiful daughter Tori. I can't BELIEVE how much a kid can change in a few short years....sad.
"happy birthday to you..."
The Family.

Pillowcase Dress
This is my first sewing project that I've done alone. I bought this vintage pillowcase at goodwill for $.99!
I just wanted to include this picture because I thought it was cute.
I paid $2.67 for a roll of ribbon and in 3 short hours my girl had a new (recycled) dress!
A trip to the dentist.
Post dentist meal. She was a little traumatized. She was afraid of the masked dentist. Thankfully daddy was there to hold her while they cleaned her teeth. But, he was traumatized because he said she was literally shaking because she was so scared. Randomly, when we got home she wanted to put all these bows in her hair and she quietly ate her lunch without talking to anyone:(
Showing off his pearly whites...he was a little nervous but told the dentist "I'm being brave." That he was! I was so proud of him.
Using the Computer Mouse as a Telephone
"Journey's desk, may I help you. Oh, you want to go on a date with me....um you'll have to talk to my big brother first."
"Here he comes, I have a feeling what he's going to say though."

HE GRADUATED!!!!
These pictures are really out of order but it's late and I'm just gonna go with it. Love this one!
My mom and sister were there to celebrate Demetrius' great accomplishment. We could not have done this whole seminary thing without the sacrifice of so many people. To say we are grateful would be a huge understatement.
Journey LOVED her Uncle Brian. And he was amazing with both the kids...he is a Daddy himself to the cutest little guy Tristen.
The future graduate.
Wow, these guys make Demetrius look tiny. Two great counseling professors and one happy graduate!
Demetrius and his sweet Mom.
Angie and Michelle came up from Miami (or "Mommy's ami" as Jayden calls it) to celebrate with us. Angie made Demetrius the best ever carrot cake...YUM!
A family picture. It was about 9:30pm when this one was taken...can you say tired parents and deliriously happy kids?
So proud of Demetrius!
Journey girl a little unsure about the weird hat.
Blake and Lindsay...great friends who have stood by us starting with our wedding day. Thanks sweet friends for your love and support along this journey.
Three generations of Summerville men.
The glorious moment!
I'm so happy for Demetrius. He has grown and changed so much. We have had an amazing experience over the past two years together. I have lots more to write about it (and I will eventually) but for now suffice it to say that it has been challenging at times but overall we have grown closer together, closer to the Lord and closer to our friends. It has been a truly memorable time for which we will cherish forever. FOREVER.
A few others from graduation week.
I'm so glad my mom got this picture of the "Oviedo Chickens." Don't be fooled, we live in a small town outside of Orlando (and they say Alabama is country). Downtown Oviedo has so many chickens just roaming around. There are even bumper stickers that say "I BRAKE FOR OVIEDO CHICKENS." Not lying. Here's proof!
Demetrius' sweet family. I LOVE them and couldn't imagine my life without them. My mom and I were talking a few days ago about how we all really feel like the same family. This is my mom, my brother and my sister. I am blessed.
Our friend Josiah and Demetrius playing a few songs at the RTS senior banquet.
Demetrius was the president of student cabinet this past year. He really loved it and I'm sure did a fabulous job as the first Black president (at RTS that is:)
Undies
We are really coming along in the potty training area. I don't know when you can say they are officially potty training but either way I think we are pretty darn close...other than the occasional accident. So proud of this kid. And he just looks cute in his Cars and Thomas undies.
Of course she has to copy brother and wear her undies too (Princess Tiana). She has actually used the potty on several occasions (which earned her some new Dora panties from Gram)! She's at the stage where she gets mad if I put a diaper on her but she's ok with a pull-up. Maybe I won't have two babies in diapers forever!!!!
24 weeks (taken 2 weeks ago)
Thank you Anne Taylor for this dress that I have managed to wear during my pregnancies and post pregnancies for the past few years. Thank you face down bunny rabbit for joining in on the picture as a reminder that I have many years left of toys being scattered around the house:)
