A boy and his dog

Greer absolutely loves Webster! He watches his every move and when close enough he always tries to touch him. Here are a few of Greer's recent attempts and successes I might add in playing with Webster. (plus take note of Greer's "voice", classic)


Greer is getting so big and has now started to sit up on his own! I tried to capture it on camera and everytime he would bust. Here are a few of my attempts, I hope you enjoy my cinematography. The last one he sits for what felt like a really long time...probably only about 10 secs in reality. I'm just so proud of him!

high chair moments


Greer loves his new high chair!


I'm not sure why he looks so scared but as you can see he loves his pears.


it is really hard to take a picture while trying to feed, i think Greer was confused.


some pictures from the park...Greer loves to swing


about 30 secs after this picture Greer decided he wasn't so fond of tummy time and started screaming, at least he is sweet in this picture


the last picture of the teeth was sorta blurry...he is a better picture of my man's very sharp bottom teeth!

Orange and White

Football season has begun and in true Tennessee tradition the team has brought us from cloud 9 after the incredible 63-7 victory over W. Kentucky to barely able to lift our heads after the painful 4 turnovers and the dreadful loss to UCLA. Geoff, Greer, and I watched the game with Woodalls and no matter how many times we played Rocky Top the team could not get it together. Even Greer cried. Well, maybe he was hungry but I think deep down he knew...this is going to be a long season. Other than mourning the loss of the hope for a decent season we have been relaxing and hanging with new friends in Jackson. Although it has only been a little longer than 2 months here, we are really feeling at home. Our house is still a wreck but I have been getting involved and feeling settled. MOMS biblestudy started last week and I am so excited about the study but also just fellowship with other women in similar situations. I definitely miss my group back in Memphis but am glad to find an outlet in Jackson.

Greer is growing up rapidly. He is now eating baby food twice a day. We bought a high chair this weekend and he is loving it. I am also loving it because he can't turn around and avoid me like he could in his bumbo. We started with fruits and although Greer wasn't too sure about it at first, he seems to be enjoying them now. We started with bananas and are on to pears now. We also got him this mesh feeder thing that is so neat. I will have to post some pictures of it later so you can understand it. But he loves it. We put some frozen peaches in it and he went to town. I think he really likes the feeling of it on his gums, teething and all. He has rolled over about 4 times now. He hates his stomach so he doesn't do it often. He is trying to sit up constantly and now can manage for about 10 seconds before toppling over.


Greer eats pretty much anything you put in reach...including vol sneakers. I think he was just working out his anger after the poor showing on Saturday.


still obsessed with his feet

Holt Wedding Weekend

Our good friends, David and Julie got married this past weekend. It was a beautiful wedding and a wonderful reunion with all our med school pals. Congrats to the Holts! We loved being apart of your special day!

Greer also got to rendezvous with his girlfriend, Lily! There are only 5 days apart in age and were so cute together! I think we might have an arranged marriage on our hands.
