Fun Times, Celebrations & Dunkin' Donuts

So glad to be able to post that I am feeling much better.  I still have moments when my nose wants to run and all that nasty stuff, but I feel pretty sure that is related to all the pollen in the air.  My nebulizer and albuterol really helped and even now I can use it if I need to.  Now, on to better things. . .

Last weekend my family and I went to St. Augustine.  We went downtown and walked the beautiful streets and the weather was absolutely incredible.  I think my favorite part of the trip was taking the stroller out and seeing all the boats docked.  Some of those boats were real beauties.  After touring around we went to a restaurant called "The Back 40".  It was not really my "cup of tea" but Mommy and Daddy really enjoyed it.  It was a fun weekend and I was just really happy to be feeling one hundred percent again. 

This weekend has been a ton of fun so far.  Last night it was a grand celebration of Grammy's 25th birthday!  Aunt Lisa suprised Grammy and flew in from Delaware to celebrate.  It was a blast, and my favorite part was the mashed potatoes at Outback.  All of the family was there so that is always a good time!  Mom-mom was there too, and it's always good to see her out and about.  It was a good night.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRAMMY!! 

I almost forgot, on special days. . . ok at least once a week, Daddy enjoys a Dunkin Donuts donut in the morning.  I am definately a fan of Dunkin Donuts, and I love it that Daddy now shares his breakfast with me on D&D days!  Thanks Dad, you're the best!

Have a great weekend, and I'll touch base again next week!

Love,
Davis

Breathing Out & Breaking Through

There are a  couple of pretty big events going on in my life.  First and foremost, the long awaited first tooth has finally popped through my top gum.  Daddy, Mommy and I have waited so long for this little booger to pop through, and it has finally.  You can't see it really well, but Daddy and I had a fun time trying to get a picture of it. 
Also, I have been having a little trouble breathing well at night due to congestion and junk all in my throat, nose, and chest.  Mommy took me to the doctor and he gave me a nebulizer and said use it a couple of times a day.  I hate that thing with a purple passion!!  After I calmed down and realized it wouldn't hurt me it was okay, but it is still not a pleasant experience. 
With all of these issues (teething and breathing), I haven't been able to get alot of sleep so, neither have Mommy and Daddy.  Well, Friday morning came and we were all able to catch up on sleep.  I woke up around 6:30 AM and then went to Mommy and Daddy's bed and slept three more hours.  It was awesome being in their big bed. 
Well, that's my week in a nut shell.  Hope you had a great week!  Looking forward to a great weekend ahead!
Good Night,
Davis

Celebrate Easter

Wow, what a whirlwind of a weekend I was able to experience!  This past weekend was very busy for my family and I, as we celebrated Easter along with our Parkview church family.  We were all at church on Saturday night for our normal service and it was great. 
Easter day began for my Daddy at about 4:45 AM. . . yes that was 4:45 AM.  I must say, I am very thankful that was not me!  Daddy was able to see the sunrise at Princess Place Preserve along with approximately 250 other people who came out to the sunrise service. 

Next up was Mommy, she was up at 6:30 AM.  Once again, I'm so glad it wasn't me up that early!  After Mommy was able to do some preparation for the day, I was up at about 7:30 AM.  Yes, 7:30 AM is still too early for this big guy, but I went along with the flow.  After a big breakfast, getting cleaned up and ready for church, and loading all we needed for the day in the car, we were on our way to church.  It was a marathon kind of day at church.  Four services on Sunday is alot, but it was well worth it for Easter. 
After church all the gang went to Barbara Jeans for a nice lunch.  After lunch, my cousin Seth and I had a Easter egg hunt.  It was a blast, although I think he found a few more eggs than I did!!  It was overall a beautiful day to celebrate!  Mommy told me over breakfast the reason for celebrating Easter, and later Daddy and I had a conversation about Jesus and how he rose from the dead!  That's really awesome! 

I hope you had a great Easter and will join me in celebrating Jesus all year long!

Bye for now,
Davis

Showing My Hiney

Well, yesterday was my first day outside working in the yard, this year.  It was a blast, although I have to be careful of the sun and getting burned.  Today, I am so excited because Daddy, Mommy and I are going to plant some flowers and sow some weed & feed in my yard.  It's supposed to be about 80 degrees outside so it will be a great day.

However, prior to my outside work I was  big help inside.  I helped with laundry (with my pants on the ground), and helped clean out my clothes drawers in my bedroom. 

When the day was done I took a little nap and I was so tired I slept in a really weird position, you should try this position (and yes, my hiney was in the air)!!

Hope you have a great weekend!  I look forward to celebrating the resurrection of Jesus this weekend!  I hope that whoever and wherever you are, you will take the opportunity to celebrate as well!!

Happy Good Friday!

Busy, Busy, Busy, There's So Much To Do. . .

Just a couple of things that have been on my agenda lately:

-  I had a great time last Saturday night with the IGNITE Team (future leaders)
from the Overflo Student Ministry! 
They are awesome!


-  I have spent alot of time looking outside and waiting for some warm spring (or summer weather).


-  I have enjoyed getting in the "fridge" and getting me a little H2O!


-  I went to the doctor for my 1 year check-up and he said I weighed 24.5 lbs. and was 33.25 inches long.  He also said I was beautiful, which is a little weird from man to man, but that's okay.

-  During some long, hard, busy days I love nap time, and I love my crib.  IT IS THE BOMB!


That's all for now!

The Aftermath

Twas a very busy week. . . the week after my first birthday.  I knew I had to go the doctor for my check-up and I also knew that my parents needed me to have some pictures made.  So many demands on me, just a small one year old boy.  I was able to accomplish the task of pictures, thanks to mommy.  This coming week I will go to the doctor, just prayin I don't have to get any shots. 

I am lookin forward to the months ahead because I know that it is going to get really warm soon!  I am so ready to enjoy my little swimming pool I got for Christmas, and also some long morning strolls. 

I better run because some of me and my parents friends are coming over this afternoon.  Some of the Overflo students are coming to have a early supper with me! Yay!!  Actually they are coming to do a little bit of leadership training, as they are all seniors in high school.  Better run and clean up my "crib". 


Peace Out,
Davis

Officially 1 Year Old

Well, my day started yesterday with many Happy Birthday wishes from mommy and daddy. . . & grandma too!  I took a bath, and got all cleaned up for my party.  I didn't really know what a 1year old birthday party would include but boy did I love it all. 

The festivities began at about 6:00.  Celebrating with me was Mommy, Daddy, Grandma (from NC), Uncle Greg, Aunt Denise, Seth, Great Aunt Carol (from DE), Grammy, Pop-pop, and my Great Mom-Mom.  We had a blast!!  As a matter of fact, I look forward to doing it all over again next year. 

Not only did I have gifts to open from the people present at my party, but I also had gifts from Aunt Lisa, Uncle Chris, Aunt Lori, Uncle Quentin, Alan, Bryce, Crystal, Darren and my Great Aunt Chris. . . Thank you all soooo much for all the awesome toys and nice clothes! 

I also need to thank Mrs. Heather for the awesome Elmo cake she made.  Not only did everyone have a large Elmo, but I had my own little Elmo cake to dig into.  I think I may eat a little more today!  Thanks to the Overtons! 

I loved my Birthday, and also have loved the first year of my life.  I look forward to spending many, many more wonderful years with all my great friends and family.  I'm also thankful that God has kept me boo-boo free for a year.  I am trying to learn to walk, and it's not always easy to steer clear of boo-boos while learning these new skills. 

Thanks for all the Happy Birthdays!
