Lots To Talk About...

Well, June and July has been a busy month. I bought a new vehicle, Chevy Traverse, my Honda was dying...and I can't argue, I really needed extra space. We went to Charleston for my cousin Corey's wedding, and it was absolutely beautiful. John Wesley got to go on a horse and buggy tour of Charleston and loved it, he enjoyed petting the horses, and never cried the whole time on the tour! We also took John Wesley swimming for the first time in a big pool. He was not the least bit afraid, and loved the water. Getting him out was a problem, he cried so hard not wanting to leave. I felt so bad, but I am glad that he is not afraid of the water...now to just teach him to swim one day. John Wesley is also learning "No!" he is definetly trying to see what he can get away with lately. He climbs everything, and will smile and run back to reclimb it again just to see if you will correct him. When you go to him he runs away laughing, he thinks it is a big game...therefore, we have enforced his Bumbo to a timeout seat! We are hoping this will eventually work. John Wesley this month has learned to point and say "Ears, Eyes, Nose, Tongue, Bellybutton, and Chicken." He loves to talk and about 50% of the time we don't know what he says but we somehow understand what he is telling us....
John Wesley also had his first haircut this past month. He was such a big boy and so independent. He wanted to sit in the chair all by himself and kept laughing looking in the mirror. He looks so much a like a big boy now, but he still has curls!
This week John Wesley had his friend, Carson, over to play. They were so sweet together and enjoyed playing with the ball and blocks. He is certainly so much fun, I love this stage...such personality...and he is looking more and more like his daddy...but I can't complain! Hope everyone is doing well, we love you!
