Molly's graduation

Nathan loved his trip to Auburn. He was especially excited when we went into the bookstore.

He loved the graduation dinner and danced to the band the whole time.

I wish I had gotten a video but unfortuately I only took these two pictures.

Congratulations Molly!

Jason's Wedding in Charleston

Nathan had a great time at the wedding. He loved running around outside but most of all he loved playing with his Godfather, Shawn.

Luckily, in these pictures you can't tell his body was covered with a mysterious rash.

Children's Museum

This video was taken in the "ball room". The room had many tracks that you could roll golf balls down. Nathan had a hard time understanding that the track would make the ball move. He insisted on making the ball move himself.

Charleston

Nathan in the hotel eating a Krispy Kreme doughnut.

(Yes, they served Krispy Kreme doughnuts at the free breakfast - Yum!)

We went to the Children's Museum in Charleston - it was right across the street from our hotel and Nathan loved it. It was perfect for his age. Here he is painting with water in the "water room".

Here he is driving the ship in the "pirate ship room"

Here we are in "jail" - I guess we were too nice for the pirates.

Zeke gets a bath

Nathan started out helping give Zeke a bath and ended up giving himself and Brad one as well.

Lake Martin

After many failed attempts, we finally made it to Lake Martin this summer.

Nathan ate watermelon for the first time and seemed to really like it.

He will not touch it now.

Nathan loved being on the boat

especially while eating all the differen kinds of chips that were on board.

Claire, Brad and Nathan.

Nathan loved driving the boat!

Nathan is tubing!

Brad's Birthday

As most of you know, Brad was injuried during a softball game on his 30th birthday. He had to wear a lot of bandages and therefore, Nathan had to have one as well. We went out to dinner and Nathan wore his bandage on his arm the whole time.

18 month appt.

Ok so Nathan finally had his 18 month appt - now that he is almost 20 months -Oh well!
Anyways - here are his stats:
Weight - 23lbs. (with clothes & shoes on)- below the 10th percentile - the doctor is not worried and thinks it is great.
Length - 32.75 in - approx. 39th percentile
Head circumference - 18.75 in. - aprrox. 39th percentile
He got his first Hep A shot - he was a little crabby for a day.
And got an overall A+ on his appt. So GREAT news!

The Beach!

talking

This is the best video taken so far of Nathan talking. While I was taping, Brad came home which distracted him - I wish I could have gotten him to say some more words.

Nathan can now say: up, ma, dada, nilk (milk), ju (juice), Auburn, uh-oh, moo, baa, eye, hi, bye, ball, my ball, boo, dog, apple and he tries to say many other words but I think we are the only ones who understand him.
