Happy 4th of July and Greenbeans!!

Well we had a very fun weekend. Friday we celebrated the 4th at Gran and DoDa's house. We also celebrated DoDa's birthday. Jack got to go swimming for a little bit, but we had to cut it short due to thunder. Kiki came home and spent the night with us. She got to witness Jack in his best state...tired and ready to go to bed. He managed to fall and bust his mouth on his cup, which was a very pleasant experience. After much blood and Jon and I inspecting him in the kitchen with a flashlight...he was fine. Have you ever tried to get a 1.5 year old to open their mouth and stick their tongue out? It takes a lot of funny faces on the part of Mom and Dad. After the boys FINALLY went to bed we watched Star Wars...not sure which episode they have all started running together since Jon watched them all last week. I think that Jon gave Kiki every bit of Star Wars knowledge that he had to share. I guess "The Force" will now be with her!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DODA!! Jack was preoccupied with giving the dogs blueberries!

Ben was not bothered by the events of the day...

Saturday morning Jon and I had to go to a wedding for a friend of mine from work. It was very nice. Gigi and Kiki had the pleasure of keeping the boys. I think they were both glad that Jack and Ben both took naps! After nap time and some yummy Marble Slab we went to "Uncle" Brennen's for a cookout and more swimming. We had a very good time. We got to see Matt, Garnett and Claire who were up from Augusta. We also got to see Bryan, Meredith and Anna. Their newest addition will be arriving on Friday...GOOD LUCK!! Jack had fun swimming in the pool and making new friends. Ben basically just sat there and took it all in before taking a nap.

Sunday was a lazy day. Jack went with Gran and Doda to Hartsville to visit the Howle's. Jon, Ben and I stayed home and had a pretty lazy day. We watched a movie and I actually stayed awake for almost all of it!!

This sums up our day on Sunday.

Tonight Ben had his very first vegetables...greenbeans! He seemed to do pretty well with it. A little better luck with greenbeans than we have had with rice cereal, but really who could blame the kid for not liking rice cereal?? I know that he is waiting for the day that he can have a Rush's cheeseburger with Jack!

Yes, that would be greenbeans in my nose...
