My First Post!!!! Summer Time!


Summer is here and we are enjoying the last week! Copeland has grown so much and is into everything. Here is a quick recap of this summers events thus far!

  • Went to New Smyrna Beach June 7-14! Had a blast, but realized Copeland is not a travel baby. Drove during nap and bedtime so it made it much easier on everyone. Copeland we now know loves to eat and play with sand, and only likes water if it's the amount of his bathtub.

  • Two haircuts have come and gone for our little man. His hair grows so fast!!! He loves the little place we got to because it has a car he can sit in while he watches a movie and eats animal crackers! Whoever thought of that was a genious!



  • Copeland almost has three teeth all the way in. The two bottom ones have been in for a while but the top is getting there.

  • We have been pacifier free for most of the summer. Of course I waited until after the vacation to start that one.

  • We do not have anymore bottles! Sad for momma, but I'm glad it was an easy transition!

  • Copeland had his baby dedication at church on Father's Day. Both grandparents, aunts, uncle, and cousin were able to make it for this special occasion.

  • We have had fun at a new park not too far from the house. A few weeks ago with our friend Annabelle and her mommy were able to join us for some playtime and lunch.

  • Copeland attended his first vacation bible school while mommy volunteered with the pre-k kids. He had a blast and was able to spend the week with 5 other boys his age, and his teacher was the same from his Sunday School Class. We have a picture collage and a certificate to show what a fun week he had!

  • Copeland has taken his first steps. I'm so happy this happened before I have to go back to work!!! He is now showing off all his new skills!!!

  • He can now feed himself with a spoon.

  • Copeland has been able to spend time playing with all his little friends born days and weeks from his birthday as well as meet a few new friends that were born in the past few months.
(Copeland, Annabelle, Payton, and Jackson in the middle!)



  • We've had fun at Mamaw and Papaw's house a good bit this summer as well! Copeland loves to see how much stuff he can get into over there!!!
