"Nashville" anthem

Tommy can now sing the entire Star Spangled banner, with a few word mistakes, but that makes it even cuter I think! He calls it the "Nashville" anthem instead of the national anthem, and makes me sing it outside every time we play baseball. It is always a highlight for him at a sporting event.

Happy Halloween!

Halloween may also be known as the best night of Tommy's life. He was on fire last night, running from house to house shouting Happy Halloween at anyone he passed. He can finally keep up with his older cousins, and had an absolute blast being right in the mix with them. There are certain moments as a parent that truly warm your heart and last night was one of mine. Watching the pure unabated joy of his Halloween experience is something I will not soon forget. As you can see, Callie was unimpressed by Halloween, and slept through all the trick or treating. But that actually ended up working out well, so we could truly appreciate Tommy's enthusiasm and hilarity!

Callie & Caroline

Our good friends have a little girl 2 days apart from Callie, and we got together this weekend. We captured some adorable pics of the girls together. I wish we could have some audio of their conversations...I swear they were really communicating with each other through their grunts and raspberry noises! It will be so fun to watch them grow up together.

Tommy's first Titans game

Tommy still LOVES football, whether it is "2 hand touch" or tackle with daddy in the yard. So it was a big day 2 weeks ago when he got to go to a real Titans game! Here are a few pics to document the day. He still walks around the house shouting "first down" and "boo Matt Schaub".

Tommy & Callie

Callie loves to smile and laugh, but no one can bring it out like her big brother Tommy. We tried to capture a few pics of how she reacts to him, and I think this pretty much shows it. They love each other so much, and it is so fun to watch their relationship grow!

First cereal

Here are some pics of Callie eating cereal for the first time, along with some other random pictures I have taken of her lately. She is getting so big, I can hardly believe it, and has already started crawling! She has her brother's sweet disposition, and unfortunately, is about as good of a sleeper as he is, too. She is still waking up at least once at night, but hopefully that won't last too much longer. But she is such a happy baby, so it is worth it!
