Another post....finally!

I love my dad's toothbrush!

Veda, Banks and McCrae when the Driggers came to visit!

Hope, Graham, Banks, and me in Montreat

I know it has been forever since I've posted! We've been very busy over the last four weeks. Banks and I traveled to Montreat for four days the last week of June to visit Mom and EJ. Banks loved following EJ around and messing up his train! Hope, a college roommate, and Graham came up for a visit on our last day there, and we had lunch at "The Huck"...... brings back lots of Montreat memories for me! We spent July 4th in Clarksville visiting Gran and Grandad. Banks enjoyed swinging on their new swingset we gave them for Christmas!

Brent, Banks, and I traveled to Greenville, SC for the weekend of July 11th to see my college roommates, their hubbies and kiddos. It was so fun to hang out for a day with everyone and walk around dowtown Greenville. We only wish Rivers had been born a couple of days earlier so we could have gotten to meet him in person! Congrats Laurie and Shay! We pulled through Rock Hill to spend Sunday afternoon before heading back to Nashville Monday morning. Banks has put in some major miles in the car. He really is a great traveler, though.

Banks was nine months on July 16th! He is pulling up on everything, climbing up the steps and crawling into our walk-in shower. His new love is a TOOTHBRUSH! It will occupy him for a good fifteen minutes! At his nine month check, he was 21lbs 11oz (73%), 28.5 in long (70%), and 18.5cm in head circumference (75%). He also has three new teeth on top that have barely broken through.

My friend Michelle from college came through Nashville last week with her kids to visit her sister-in-law. We went to the zoo and had them over for pizza the next night. It was SO FUN to meet her kids and to catch up and laugh about old times. Brent and I got a new camera the day before we went to the zoo, so it was fun for me to test it out.

I'm still getting the hang of this, so the pictures I post are not always in the right order. We're off to Myrtle Beach for a week with the Emersons and Penningtons on Tuesday!
