Sunday Funday

We spent another beautiful Sunday afternoon at the lake.

Good times with good friends.

Kirby went wake boarding for the first time of the year and decided he LOVES it!!! He's already ready to try it on his own.

His little fanclub waiting to hear about the ride.
Amy came too!

Kirby and his girls.

We have had a busy couple of weeks since Roe's birthday. At his 1 year check-up we were shocked to hear that our "big" baby is not quite as big as we thought, in fact, he's in the bottom 5% for his age. He has only gained 1 oz since his 9mo. appt. We have been stumped for the past 3 months or so. He seems to have some sort of allergies, which we suspect may be to Dairy. Not really a lactose intolerance but more sinus issues whenever we try to give him anything containing dairy. He has had an ear infection the last week due to the fluids in his head, a result of these allergies, and has just been pathetic. At 1 year the Dr's suggest that you move your baby from breastmilk or formula to whole milk............so we have to go back in June to see if he is gaining weight and discuss seeing an allergist and nutritionist.

Prayers Welcome :)

A fun visit

This week we had a wonderful visit from Sierra. She had some time off and stayed with us for two nights! We had a great time catching up and hearing all the details of her upcoming wedding, and her new place in ATL. We all hated to see her go. Ted, Seirra and I had LOTS of fun times together in Gainesville. Whenever she comes to visit it's the 3 Amigos reunited.

Man's Best Friend

Yesterday was a tough day. Anyone who reads this blog and knows our family knows just how much Gator means, and has meant to Ted over the years.

They have been through a lot together. From the pound in Lynchburg Va, Gator has been by Ted's side for the last 15 years.

Multiple homes, roomates, girlfriends, vacations, children, through victories (3 national champoinships) and sadness.

Birthday Boy

I can't believe Roe is already 1!

We had a fun family bbq in the back yard to celebrate the big day. Baby Margaret stole the show!

Happy Birthday big boy!

St Marks Fun Run

Thursday St Marks did a fun-run type of fundraiser. Kirby and I called all our family members and asked if they would sponsor Kirby for $1 or $2 a lap. I assured everyone that although Kirby is FULL of ENERGY he will not complete the 35 laps that St Marks had hoped for all the runners.... Probably more like 4.

" Mrs Haines Hurricanes"

Baby Roe cheering on the hurricanes

Ready, Set Go

Then along came Lucas..... this sweet boy pushed Kirby around the track 21 times, congratulations Kirby on the big victory.
