Go ahead! Be jealous!

I got to watch Philip the other night! What a great kid! I'm tellin' ya, those big brown eyes and that happy personality just make a perfect combination of a really sweet boy. Oh my goodness, from playing baseball (IN the house...don't worry, though, it was a small play set), to watching tv while sitting on my shoulders, to rocking him to sleep...this was an evening that really was enjoyable for me. I'm here to say, if I ever have a kid who's big eyes look as pitiful and sad as Philip's did when I put him down in his crib and they cry big ol' tears for me to come back in and pick them back up and rock them to the music on their cd player like me and Philip did, I'll probably wimp out and do it most every time. Hey!...Who in their right mind would even think twice about turning around and going back to try and console a baby like Philip?!

We were playing with some toy that had music and colorful, spinny things, here.

In the meantime...

Aunt De, myself, and my grandma attended a wedding on Saturday. Rach went, too, but she's the one that took this picture.

...and this picture below just makes me laugh because of how well I know my family. Here we are at the gas station after church...all of us in the van. Emilee is not being serious, but is really telling Drew, my brother, how she feels about the words to the song that was just playing on the radio. I think they were disagreeing about how the song went. The look on Drew's face? Oh that one's easy. This is my brothers signature look that says without words, "I'm thinking of something funny to say to you as soon as you finish yelling".

And look! Bryon made me this bracelet...the blue and yellow one in the picture. It's my favorite piece of jewelry for the time being!

Bryon, I <3 you.
