Jumping

Alden loves jumping lately, and keeps finding higher and higher things to jump off of. Lately it has been the piano bench and his table, hopefully he will stop there... He is quite the little monkey.

Sitting and eating popsicles

This is one of our favorite things to do in the summer time.

Drive In

Last night I went to my first Drive-In movie theater. We went and saw Cars II.
Alden was so excited the whole drive to the theater, every time we told him we were going to see a movie he would start clapping his hands and smiling.
When we got there, he loved running around the parking lot, jumping on and off things in the car, and dancing to the music while we waited for the movie to start.
The movie started after the sun set, which was about 8:45. Alden lasted until about 10, which is way past his bed time, but he was happy and good for the whole thing.
The movie ended at 10:30 and you could stay for the second movie, which in this case was KungFu Panda II, Michael was all for it and probably would have lasted, I would have probably just fallen asleep part way through, but we were being eaten by bugs and Alden was sleeping in a funny way in his car seat, so we thought it was best to head home.

YMCA

Every Friday Alden and I have been going to the YMCA swim pool. This is Alden's favorite part, he goes down this slide over and over again.

Gender Quiz

Last night I decided to take one of those gender quizzes online to see what they thought I would have based on my size, cravings, ext... Based on there calculations I have a 50% chance of having a boy! I guess this baby really wants to surprise us and I think he/she might just accomplish it. :)
We are excited about maybe having a surprise though, either way we are glad we have a healthy baby.

Summer!

These are pictures from our trip to the Smoky mountains and when we visited Shilo back in the beginning of May. (I haven't taken many pictures this month otherwise I would put up some more resent ones, I definitely do not need my coat this month .)

Summer is officially here in Mississippi, it has been nice and warm/hot for the last few weeks. Alden and I have been enjoying going swimming just about every day. We also spend most of the morning playing outside (the park, feeding the ducks, and playing in the sand volleyball court) then we spend the afternoons keeping cool inside.

We still have a couple of boys come over in the mornings to play, which we love. Alden loves having someone to play with, and it keeps me busy and on my toes.

As far as the pregnancy is going, it is going really well, no complaints. It is going so well that we haven't needed an ultrasound... which means we still don't know if it is a boy or girl. We are hoping that we find out before the baby comes, but as my doctor has assured me, we will find out one way or the other when the baby comes. I am now 30 weeks and the time is flying by.

Pictures

This is one of Alden's many piles that he has made lately!

Alden's first ice cream cone!

Graceland, we finally decided to make the trip to see Elvis's old home. It was neat to learn about him and to have a fun date together.
