Over the Last Few Months

Ok, so a dear friend has been begging me to update the blog so here goes. I am going to start with Halloween since it is a BIG holiday in Bill's family!
As usual we spent Halloween in Birmingham and as usual there were a lot of trick-or-treaters! Al was dressed as a Monkey and let me just say, that was the cutest monkey ever! He did not last long in his costume because he is the most hot natured baby ever!
Thanksgiving was really big this year too! My family all went to Destin for the week. My dad’s brother has a beach house there and my parents rented a two story house next door to my Uncle’s. At our house there were twelve people and four next door. Since my Uncle and his family are all Alabama fans we had a house divided for the Iron Bowl! War Eagle!!! We took some time to walk over to the beach and took some awesome family photos.
Al’s first Christmas was spent in Birmingham with Bill’s family. I think between the Christmas’ with my family and Bill’s we had a total of six Christmas’ in one week. It was wonderful but exhausting. Al got lots of fun things for Christmas! He had just started sitting up so he loved his big activity center from Kaky and Papa T (Bill’s parents) and his walker from Nana and Doc (my parents)! The New Year was great. My mom was so nice and babysat Al so Bill and I could enjoy ringing in the New Year with Jenn and Eron. Michael Meall was in town and we got to spend some good quality time with him before he drove back to Maryland! Happy 2011. On the last big note Al turned four months old this Friday! We are supposed to be going to the Doctor for our check up on Tuesday, weather permitting since our road is probably going to be covered in Ice for the next three days!


WAR EAGLE!!!
