OMG!! TJ is 13... yikes!
Well folks, TJ made it to 13!! He is such a great kid... a true blessing to the family! I really feel that TJ exudes Christ's teachings in that he is the sweetest child and truly genuine in spirit. We celebrated his 13th birthday at momma's house with hot and sticky wings and shrimp with lemon-garlic cream sauce. Dessert: Cupcakes!
*
There were 2 very special guests of honor at the party
And of course there was some swimmin'
"Happy Birthday, sweet TJ.....
... Happy Birthday to you!"
And of course there were ample presents including a set of golf clubs, a new swim suit, an underwater surf board, a round of golf with Brian, a new ROMO jersey, some money, a new lego star wars set, and a trip to Silver Dollar City! Can we say SPOILED?!?!?!
He truly is a great kid! We love you buddy!!!
Bathing Beauty
She has 3 other swim suits as well... she is just too big for this one so we had to get the shots now! More to come!!!

Major Update and Many Apologies!
Ok... who can blame me??? I went back to work for 2 weeks and when i got home I certainly did not want to get on the computer! So I apologize and here are some pictures in no particular order to catch you up!
Precious!
I love her so much!
To say the least...
Grandma and Gracelee
Thank you Ms. Christie for my adorable sunflower outfit! I love it!!!
Thank you Auntie (a.k.a. Robyn) for my flower outfit... I love it, and I love you!
Annabelle and Gracelee Hugs!
Full bloomers!
Get used to it girls! Mom and Auntie had to do it to, and it is precious memories!
Lovely ladies!

What kind of candle is that?
On our way to the pool!

My first beach towel... Thanks Grandma!
Doctor visit...
Our little girl is not so little! 12.3 pounds, 24 inches long and still growing (95 % for both!)!!! She is perfect in every way and I am so excited to spend every day with her this summer!
*
BTW... SHE LAUGHED OUT LOUD IN THE STORE YESTERDAY (JUNE 9TH)... I couldn't believe my ears! I laughed out loud at her and it made her do it again! I was so excited I left my phone at the store... all is good, I found it! The people at the store were super friendly and excited with me!
*
Until next time... which will be sooner, I promise! Love and God Bless!

***WARNING*** We just want her to go to college!
Justin and I have no affiliation with colleges...
*
If you want to send Gracelee a jersey from your school of choice, she will gladly represent it (except a Sooners jersey... as a Texas Girl, that is against our religion!)!
*
We happen to have family that has attended this great university, and are smart and successful individuals! We like the conservative morals that the student body possesses... although there are still jokes that go around about this school that we laugh at...
*
At any rate, as long as she goes to a college, we are happy...
*
And with that lead... here are her A&M pictures, jersey courtesy of Ms. Collins... thank you so much!!!!!!

The Cheerleader
I know I am a smart cookie... I have a shirt that says so, but my attitude is everything!
I am so proud of her even now!
Big Girl Bath!!
Gracelee will be 8 weeks on Monday... Time really does fly! She is growing into such a beautiful baby and she is an angel on earth!! She is gaining more and more head control as the days go by, so we thought we would try a "REAL" bath in her bathroom... it worked beautifully! She loved being submerged in the warm water, and even had a good time with her new pal, Rubber Duckie! I love her so much! She is truly amazing and the coolest thing that God has ever given me!

Family Time!
Such is a wonderful thing when family comes in town for a visit!!! My Uncle Tommy, Aunt Clarice, and cousin, Ashlee, came for a visit to meet Ms. Gracelee on Saturday after Trey's graduation!
*
That is right! You heard correctly! Thomas William Dunaway the third named Trey (which is exactly how he would say his name... word for word... when he was little) graduated from A&M on saturday! Where does the time go?!?! It seems like yesterday he was wearing his Ghostbusters pack and carrying his Ninja Turtle Sai!!!
*
Trey and Ashlee are amazing kids! They are smart and sweet and devout Christians! They exude confidence and self esteem ( in a good way) and they love with their WHOLE heart and soul! As brother and sister, I have never heard them argue and they seem like really good friends!
*
Our visits never seem long enough, and I wish like crazy we lived closer to family! at least it is still in Texas...
*
Thank you for coming! We love you and cannot wait until the next visit!

The search for a house continues for Brian and Keila.
We hope like crazy that they find something that is perfect for them AND it is close by!!!
The reason:
*
Look how she loves them!!!
*
She cannot help nuzzling Uncle B... He is so muscle-y... and she feels so safe!!
And sweet Aunt KeKe!! I know she is dreaming and thinking about the fun shopping trips!!
It was a great weekend!!! Not long enough, but when are they??
*
I sit here holding my sleeping baby thinking of the fun this weekend entailed... knowing how sleepy she is... not wanting to let go.... not wanting to put her down... loving every minute of my wonderful, God given life!
