I missed my DADDY!

When Clint got home, Hampton could not keep his hands off him! He missed him so much. It was great to see him so excited to see his Daddy!

AL Vacation II - Hanging with the Fam

This is my cousin Griffin. I loved reading books with him!

"Whussup?" I was wearing Griffin's Bama hat. I'm not so sure I like it...

Mommy calls this my GQ look. I'm not sure what that means.

I think this is my GQ look! I can't wait to swim in these goggles...

Me and Unka Jerl. He's my buddy!

AL Vacation I - Boys State

We had a great trip to Alabama recently. We flew in as a family, but Clint spent the week in Tuscaloosa at Boys' State. We drove over on Sunday evening to hear him speak. It was GREAT! This was Hampton's first Boys' State (well, he went 2 years ago when he was still in my belly!). He listened very intently as his Daddy spoke and was very still. He even got to pose on stage with Daddy for a "bowtie" picture in front of the big flag! Hampton's cousins Justin, Griffin, and Graysen came with their mom Jennifer Usher (Aunt Nenny). Also, Hampton's grandparents PawPaw and MawMaw and Uncle Gerald (Unka Jerl) came. Daddy wasn't smiling in any of the pictures because he was a little nervous before his speech (but he's not too much of a smiler in pictures anyway!). We had a great day together!

Catching up...

It's been a WHILE since I've posted, so I'm catching up. I am posting 3 new entries today, so check all of them out. We've been busy this month. Clint's been working long hours, and we have had a lot going on. All good stuff, thankfully! Clint is taking this Friday off so we can go to the beach together as a family, so stay tuned for pictures from that day. Also, at the end of this month, we're going to Alabama, then we will have friends visiting in early June. We can't wait for all that is to come!! This is a cute video that I thought you would enjoy - it proves that we are a little crazy in our house sometimes...nah, we just have FUN!

Trip to Montgomery

We went to Montgomery a couple of weeks ago to visit with MawMaw, who was in the hospital. She's getting much better now, and we are SO thankful for that! Even though we were busy going back and forth to the hospital, it was a good trip. Hampton enjoyed reading with MawMaw, walking with PawPaw (holding on to his jean loop), and just hanging out! Here are some pictures from our journeys...

Beach trip

Even though these pictures are a few weeks old, I wanted to post them. Hampton had such a great time the day we went to Deerfield Beach with our friends Tami and Anna. He loved playing in the sand, letting the waves crash into him, and riding Anna's boogie board! Here are some pictures of our day...

Two Great Videos-Hampton TALKS!

(PAUSE the music on the playlist on the left before viewing videos)

I have a couple of videos to share with you that are just cute. The first one was last Sunday, and Hampton was sticking his tongue out and doing weird things with it. You also get to hear him say "all done," which he says after meals (usually only when prompted).

I captured another great video of Hampton this morning. He's learning to nod his head YES, and as you will see he does it with great enthusiasm! He almost has to hold on to something so he doesn't fall over! He also says a few "real" words here too - "YEAH" and "BYE". I almost cut it off too soon at the end, but you'll hear it! Unfortunately, you get to hear his nasty cough that he's had for a few days too.

Enjoy!
