The Greatest Man in History

The Greatest Man in History, Jesus
Had no servants, yet they called Him Master
Had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher
Had no medicines, yet that called Him Healer
He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won.
No military battles, yet He conquered the world.
He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him.
He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.

Colton's List of Favorite Things

Beach Trip

We just got back from the beach a few days ago and we had such a great time!! Colton loved swimming and relaxing in the pool. Almost every time that we put him in the water he fell sound asleep. It was precious!! Even though the hurricane was suppose to come through Orange Beach, we actually had perfect weather the whole time. It sprinkled a few days but only for a few hours.
While down there, the whole family went shopping and we ate a ton of seafood!!! It was such a wonderful trip and it was so nice just to be together.

Colton just turned 4 months old and is growing so fast! He has started sitting up with support and now he wants to sit up all the time. We think he is also getting some teeth in because he is drooling all the time!! He also is starting to grab toys and most of the time they tend to go straight in his mouth. This little boy is just the cutest little thing and I can't imagine my life without him. I really am such a lucky woman to have such a wonderful baby boy and wonderful husband!!

Pictures will be posted soon of Colton's first beach trip!!

Squealing Boy!!

Last night I was in the kitchen making some chicken salad while Colton was watching some cartoons in the living room. After a few minutes I heard him just a squealing at the TV. I went in to check on him and he was just laughing and smiling at the TV. It was so cute!!

Colton and Daddy

I was lucky enough yesterday to get to go to the movies with mom, Aunt Janice, Aunt Donna and Aunt Melinda while Chris watched Colton in the afternoon. The movie was over around 4pm and I couldn't wait to get home to my two favorite boys! As I opened the door, both Chris and Colton were sound asleep on the floor watching cartoons. It was the sweetest thing!!

Colton's Special Day!!

We dedicated Colton to the Lord on August 3rd at church. By doing this, Chris and I made a promise to the Lord that we would raise Colton up in a loving Christian family and that we would show him the love of Christ each and everyday. This was a very special day and after the service we celebrated with lunch at Nana and Big Daddy's house with the whole family. Poor Colton though was exhausted from the day's celebration and he quickly fell sound asleep on Big Daddy's lap that afternoon.

Crazy Colton!

This picture was taken about a month ago but I just think it's the funniest picture.

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!

Diaper Duty for Chris

Chris was able to keep Colton today because he got off from work at 10am this morning. I was secretly hoping that Colton would have a dirty diaper because Chris hasn't attempted another one since his first changing at the hospital! Surprise Surprise!!! I got a call from Chris around 4pm saying that Colton had a dirty diaper. Haha!! Poor Chris said that as he was changing him he used the bathroom all over the changing pad because he wasn't quite through yet. I'm anxious to see if he will attempt any more in the future or if this ruined him!
