Em, Nicole, and myself

Another girls pic outside my favorite spot for breakfast in ATX. Love the banana pancakes. Yummy! Had them both mornings in Austin!

Jamey and Nicole at Saltlick. About to dig into some yummy BBQ.

Erik and I at Saltlick. At this point, we were starving. Waited an hour smelling the smoke off the BBQ pit. It was delicious!

Every year, Erik and I go to San Antonio to get away for a long weekend. This year we had nothing planned, because of obvious reasons...a new baby. Once we had Knox, everyone seemed to be going on vacation except for us. So, we planned a little getaway to Austin. We stayed at a friends house with Emily, Geoff, Nicole, and Jamey. We had so much fun! It was exactly what we needed. I got 2 full nights of sleep, got to lay out by the pool, go shopping in San Marcus, and eat at some great places. Had a great time! Thank you Mimi and Pops for keeping the boys!

Knox's 1st time to Church

Today, Knox went with us to Church for the first time. He was absolutely perfect and didn't make a peep! He was introduced at the end of the service to our church family. He did great!

The first month!

I can't believe how fast our precious little boy has grown in the last month. He is a strong little guy...always lifting his head. He was absolutely perfect the 1st 2 weeks, then he became fussy. We switched his formula and he seems to be doing a lot better. Big Brother Nolan is adjusting, but starting to want Mommy and Daddy to hold him while holding Knox. He is learning the hard way how to share his Mama and Dada.

Proud to be an American

Nolan, Maci Rust, and Reid Cunningham at the parade!

Nolan did not like the sirens or horns! He kept lifting Eriks hands up over his ears!

My adorable niece, Ally, enjoyed sugar-coated strawberrys!

Nolan enjoying a round of golf in the parking lot of Dada's office awaiting fireworks!

Cousins: Ally, Molly, Knox,and Nolan---July 4, 2010!

Nolan preferred watching fireworks from inside. He didn't like the loud pop!

Knox enjoyed watching fireworks for the first time next to Uncle Geoff!

The Big Waxahachie Fireworks Show!

There is nothing like the 4th of July. I look forward to it every year. I don't know what it is exactly...the flags that line the streets, the proud spirit of being an American, family, friends, parade, cook-outs, fireworks, and Homemade Ice Cream!!! I love it all!
