Out & About

Last night we went out to continue the celebration of Daddy's birthday which was on 7/12. We went to the Cheekwood Botanical Gardens family night, with kids entertainment. Shawn enjoyed the music, while Asher mostly enjoyed the exploration of the gardens, ponds, and meeting some new friends...or enemies?


Shawn got close to the entertainer, Conductor Jack. The ground was sloped and he had a little trouble keeping his balance, so this excursion quickly turned into him sitting firmly in my lap.

Here is proof that daddy was there, and that Asher sweats like his momma....


All that sweat deserves a little ice cream. We went to Baskin Robbins where I failed to bring in my camera (dangit!)... but Shawn sat on top of a table, and ate a scoop of chocolate ice cream in a cone, all by himself. I didn't catch him in action, but I did capture the aftermath....after he wiped off his own face...

His shirt says "Born To Be Cute" and I give a roaring loud AMEN to that!

Sounds like a really wonderful after-the-birthday celebration. I'll have to picture Shawn on top of the table eating his ice cream. (Don't you hate not having a camera when you need it? It's about as bad as having dead batteries.)

Thank you for your prayers, Melissa. I've been much more diligent in praying for others since your recent post (Not Numb)
