Blowing kisses and Birmingham trip...

First, an action shot of Fletcher's latest "trick"-

So the 4 of us made a trip to Birmingham for Gina's baby shower and Mama Jo's 85th Birthday party! Gina, I need some of the shower pictures- everyone's been asking about it! I think Luke will be well-outfitted for his arrival, coming in November. We are looking forward to meeting our newest nephew!!

Here is Fletcher pictured with his newest BFF, Isabella. He loved playing with her- so much in fact, that he couldn't sleep that night!

Brian and Fletch are playing with this flashcard app- I love technology sometimes.

On top of that, we got to hang out with Papa, Kathy, and Kylie on our way out of town.

And let's not forget Kelley and Foofie driving out to visit/ walk. What a treat- miss these girls.

Thanks again, Chief and Frannie for having us- it is always a pleasure staying with y'all. (and they need special credit for dealing with a wakeful baby Saturday night- he was too wound up from all of the partying!)

I was complaining to Brian that no one ever takes MY picture, so he obliged me. Fletch likes to give a "hug" by pressing his head on you. He "hugs" me before B puts him to bed at night. I think it's cute.

Giant baby

Apparently Fletcher's teachers are doing a better job at documenting his life, than his very own parents. And we appreciate it! His teacher said today, that he tries to lay down in the "upstairs" of this doll house, and he looks out of the window at her, with one eye. She said she accidentally deleted that particular picture. But I'm glad that she got this one.

PS Happy Birthday Brian yesterday!! Some pics to come of our little celebration.

Thanks, teachers

So this is Fletcher's last week in his classroom; he moves up to the bigger toddlers next week! His teachers have been sending digital pictures lately, which I LOVE. It cracks me up that he's reading so hard! I owe his reading proficiency to them- this is a very advanced prep-school, obviously.

Seriously though, he has been in such a nurturing envioronment at the JCC- I'm very thankful for these teachers who have taken him in and made him feel loved. And a bonus, taught him a lot of Jewish songs, and some dancing skills! Let's just hope he gets his rhythm from me, and not dad. At this point though, outlook not so good.
