Summer Update Part 1!

I can't believe how fast this summer is going by! We have had a wonderful summer! So many new things to report and share! I honestly don't even know where to begin! I also have tons of pictures to post, so hopefully I can narrow them down!
I've decided to do this post in parts! This is part 1 and will encompass our first night in Tennessee! Somehow I am noticing a trend -- Davis literally has 100's of clothes that fit - not exagerating either! But somehow all of my pictures and posts lately he has this outfit on! I am going to make sure he wears other attire for the camera for a while! :)

Davis crusing in his car and Mimi and Pops' house! I have no idea why he is driving with his snack plate on his car! Go figure! This picture is just too cute I had to throw it in!




Updates:

1. Tim started a new job, and here is the best news! NO MORE TRAVELING! So excited!

2. Davis is using the "Potty, Potty, Now-ow!"

3. Marleigh is growing like a weed and rolling and moving ALL over the place!

4. Mommy has agreed to a new job next year - She will be teaching ESOL part-time at her current school! :)

5. Oh and did I mention that Daddy turned 30!!! Mommy doesn't know what to do being married to an OLD MAN!



We had an AWESOME trip to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg! The cabin we stayed in was INCREDIBLE! We could SO live there!!! It's forsale - but I don't think we could spring the $650,000 they are asking for it!!! The kids were GREAT!!! The loved Dollywood and we discovered that D is a daredevil!!! He will ride anything and the faster/higher the better!!! :)

We made a stop in Cherokee, but Davis was to preoccupied with the fact that Mimi had just told him we were going to visit the Aquarium in Gatlinburg to care for indians!

He did enjoy riding this horsey!


And he even let sissy in on the fun!


On the way to our cabin - he spotted a kiddie amusement park or more specifically this train! Guess where we ended up later that evening?

Of course, Pops had to go with him first!




Then he let daddy go for a ride!



Davis suprised us as he wanted to ride anything and everything - even by himself! Mommy was so excited! She knew he would love Dollywood!

Next it was super high up in the air by himself, Davis the pilot! Mommy was a nervous wreck waiting on D to try to skydive out, but he LOVED it!!! He just waved and waved!


Next, it was on the Ferris Wheel where we were shocked that he didn't want out after his cage mate had a nervous breakdown! They stop to let the boy out and Davis said he was ok and wanted to keep going! Good for you, my big boy!



Next, the scrambler! We were worried about this one as it makes daddy VERY sick! Davis LOVED it -- The operator couldn't spin him fast enough. He kept screaming more more faster faster! I just knew we'd see dinner again! However, he was a pro until he let go and started spinning with the cart! The operator saved the day and got him back under control. Davis just laughed. He would have stayed on it all night!


Sissy slept most of the time at the Kiddie Park in her stroller, but Mommy got Sleephead up for some lovin' and a quick photo!

Wow, it looks like you have had a great summer. And let me just be the first to say that I am really glad that you got some great pictures of Mr Davis, finally. He probably didn't know you were taking any pictures....he was obviously having too much fun! Miss Marleigh even looks like she got in on some of the action.

Those are 2 cute kiddos you got Amanda!!!

What fun! We went to Cherokee just last weekend and the kids had a blast!! Well, all except for the part where we tried to get the Indian Chief to hold Wyatt and pose with Allie foe a picture. Al loved it but Wyatt...not so much!! All in all a fun day though. I'll have to post some pics for you. Anyway, glad you had fun!!The kids are just adorable and I can't believe how big Miss Marleigh is!!
