Andrew's 16th birthday was December 5th. We celebrated by watching Alabama win the SEC Championship game against Florida. I didn't actually watch the game, but Jaime needed us to watch Titus so that gave me something to do. Titus helped Andrew open his presents -- it was so cute! He is so precious! It seems like only yesterday that Andrew was that little. Not to be forgotten (Morgan reminded me that I never posted pictures of her when she was a baby -- next birthday, Morgan), here are some baby pictures of Andrew.

Our first born, Lauren, turned 18 years old on Monday, October 26th. I've been looking through her baby pictures and thinking how fast she has grown up. It seems like only yesterday Jeff and I were bringing her home. Take a short trip down memory lane with me as I can't resist posting some baby pictures of her.
~~~ And now, with those thunder thighs long gone, she has grown into a beautiful, mature young lady. I never could've imagined that God would bless us with such a wonderful daughter, but he did. She truly is a gift from above. Here she is celebrating her day.

Our bouncing baby girl, Lauren Anastasia, was born on a Saturday evening, weighing in at 8 lbs. 13 oz. and 20 1/2 in. long.
The belle of the ball --- everyone was so excited when she came. She was the first grandbaby for both of these adoring grandmothers. Left to Right: Carol, aka Mammie (Jeff's mom); proud Daddy -- Jeff; baby Lauren in my arms; Barbara, aka MawMaw (my mom).
Miss Piggy! She grew fast and was a chunk to carry around. At 10 weeks old she was weighing in at 13 pounds. She was such a good baby, sleeping through the night since she was 6 weeks old.
At 9 months old she was sitting up and taking her first unattended steps. She decided she wanted to walk first and still wasn't crawling. She had to do something to work off those ever growing thighs.
Such a happy girl, sitting in her rocking chair and smiling for the camera at 10 1/2 months old.
Smiling at her daddy on Christmas morning. (13 1/2 months old)
At 16 months old, staying warm inside her Mammie's house during the Blizzard of '93. As you can see, she was still trying to work off those thighs.
Our "monkey girl" with her monkey wrapping paper. We are always calling her a monkey and I was so thrilled to actually find wrapping paper with chimps on it for her.
