Jr. Golf Banquet


Last night was Jason's Jr. Golf Banquet and J.P. and I attended. This was the first time I really got to get J.P. all dressed up. He looked so grown up and adorable. He really looks like his daddy. The banquet was really nice and the food was awesome. Jason did a wonderful job. This was his first year that he was in charge of the Junior program, what a great season they had. I love the kids.


Well, the big game is tomorrow night. Let's Goooo Mountaineers!!!

John Patrick- 7 months


I cannot believe it has been 7 months, before we know it we will be Christmas shopping. We have been enjoying the cooler temperatures, it is starting to feel like fall. This is the best season ever. Football, cool weather and the trees.


Jason enjoyed a wonderful day of golf yesterday. He played for the March of Dimes in honor of John Patrick and all premature babies. I believe they raised a lot of money. Plus the weather was perfect a high of 75 with no clouds.


Grandma Judi is coming up Friday and Saturday to visit while Jason goes on a little golf trip to Pine Valley. Grandma Judi wants to go to the zoo again. So I am sure we will take a trip there and maybe go fall shopping. We are going to decorate our home for fall and Halloween. This will be J.P.'s first Halloween. How much fun!!!!

Stomach Flu

The day after John Patrick's doctors visit, he got a bug. This was the first time Jason and I had ever seen him puke. He puked so much that I was ready to rush him to the ER, but the doctor said just to try and keep him hydrated. Thank goodness it only lasted 24 hours. The next evening I started puking and ran a fever for 24 hours and then it was Jason's turn. Our dog Stolie even puked once. I am so glad this is all over and hope nobody ever gets this nasty bug.

We then headed down to Morgantown for Labor Day weekend and for the home opener for the Mountaineers. It was John Patrick's first Mountaineer football game. I am waiting for some pics to be emailed to me so I can share. Hint: Aunt Shelly.

6 month check-up

Yesterday, was John Patrick's 6 month check-up. He weighed 15.7 lbs. and was 25.5 inches long. Dr. Lagnese was really impressed with his growth and his milestones. He is almost sitting on his own, the doctor said that it would not be too long before he is crawling. He is solid as a rock and is very active. Everyday there is something new that he does. Then at the end of the appointment comes the shots. The part that I do not enjoy very much, but he is such a little trooper. I watch him like a hawk the whole day looking for any reactions.
Today, is the first morning in five mornings that I have woke up to sunshine and not rain. YEAH!! It is so much easier waking up when it is beautiful outside. They say it might even reach the 90's. Maybe we will head up to the pool. Make it a great one!!!

Morgantown and then company

What a crazy past week. We first started off the week in Morgantown, visiting family. John Patrick got to meet his great uncles Mike and Jim and his great aunt Kylene. We had a wonderful time seeing everyone. Then on Monday John Patrick and I headed over to Country Lane Photography for a photo session. This was interesting, trying to get a six month old to do whatever you want them to do is impossible. However, the pics turned out better than I thought they would. We returned back to Pittsburgh on Tuesday. I had a friend from Florida Nicole that came to visit Wednesday afternoon, it was great getting to see her and catch up. Then on Thursday Risa and her two children Gaven and Sydney came in from Charlotte. They were on there way to Buffalo, NY and stopped here for two nights. Sydney is only one month older than John Patrick so it was fun to see them together. Gaven is eight and he has grown so much. They left on Saturday morning heading to Buffalo. Needless to say, I was wore out. Now I am playing catch up to laundry and housework. We celebrated Stolie Brooke's (dog) 7th birthday on Sunday, August 19th. It is funny because she still acts like she is 2. Happy Birthday Stolie, I hope we have seven more great years.
