Pictures since we've been in Destin, FL


Gerald's first Pompano, and we ate it.. pretty good except for the thought of it at this moment haha.

So clear

Fishing at the Boardwalk

11 weeks old

Aj's.. our first place to eat seafood and it was sooo good. We didn't eat any in Mobile either.




His eyes look brown here because of instagram but they are bright blue. I love this sweet smile :)

Sweet little girls!

This was his smile after I asked, "Cole why did you pee pee on the bed?" haha it's almost like he knew although I know that is impossible ;)

My favorite place in Destin.. Crab Island. There is always blow up slides and people everywhere on the huge sand bar.

Abby's little friend took this haha.


Thats it for now, but I need to get a updated picture of the kids today and post it soon!!


Crazy Life

Cole is now three months old, and a little over. I am super late on updating and don't have any pictures right now, but I will post some tomorrow. We have the craziest life right now and are hanging on by a prayer. Everyone is super helpful where we have moved and have welcomed us like family. About three weeks ago we relocated to Destin, FL because Gerald took a job here. It is beautiful here.. we love going to the beach and have taken up fishing at the boardwalk as often as possible. Abby has even met some regular friends there that she plays with when we go! We have always loved Destin, but not how we love it now that we've met so much of the community. They are just really sweet, helpful, welcoming people. Abby and Cole will be starting daycare on June 18th, and it's actually across from Destin Elementary where Abs will go next year. It's hard to believe she starts VPK this August, and next she will be in kindergarden! When did this happen!? She is so excited though and I'm excited for her. I have been working at the Harvest House some too, it is a non profit food pantry also with a thrift store that is SUPER cheap and free for people in need. I think the ladies there are amazing at what they are doing here, and they have treated us like family!

Like I said though, Cole is over THREE months old now! He is the SWEETEST little blue eyed boy ever (I'm in love with his pretty eyes haha). He is actually sitting in my lap watching me write this :). Sooo some things I should say and brag a little on him haha.. Cole sleeps through the night from usually 8:30/9 pm to around 6:00 am, with usually just one bottle in between. Sometimes he won't even wake up for that. He has started on a little bit of cereal in his bottles, and is getting to be a little chunk, but still much smaller than Abby was. He constantly smiles and grins SO big when he sees one of us (Abby, Me, or Gerald). It takes him a second to study new faces, but after a second he will smile at anyone else too.. not quite like he does to us though ;) It'shard not to catch this boy happy and smiling. He loves for us to hold his stuffed animals  for him to look at, and loves watching the hanging stars above his crib. Cole goos and blows bubble all the time now, he is a slobber monster. And, he is always kicking his legs as FAST as he can.. me and gerald just laugh. Oh, and we also laugh at how much this little boy passes gas. (I know TMI?) But, it is crazy how loud and often he does it! I get embarrassed sometimes out in public because it sounds like its coming from an adult not a tiny baby. Hahaha.. I love him soooo much though. Abby loves her brother so much, and I can tell by the way he watches her and smiles at her that Cole loves her just as much. She is such a big help to her Mama! We are so lucky to have two great kids! And although we miss our family pretty bad. we're also lucky to be here in such a beautiful place.

I will post some photos asap =)
