Happy Birthday Greer!

I know, I know... Where have we been?!?! Well I guess I'll just say, the dust has settled.
Our last post was in early July. Here's an abbreviated version of what we've been up to since then...
July- spending my last days as a "stay-at-home-Mom" and getting our girl ready for Daycare!
August- Greer starts daycare, new school year begins.
September- Football season. (It consumes every weekend!)
October- Halloween parties, Fall fesitvals and football.
 November- Greer's Birthday preparation! (and football.)
And here we are! The dust has settled. (Although, it's picking back up with Christmas fast approaching!)
We had so much fun celebrating Greer's 1st Birthday, that I have too many pictures to just post on facebook!
I wasn't sure that I wanted to do a whole lot for her birthday. But once I decided we would have a party... pinterest struck! And a simple party was out the window. And then we decided it would be easier to celebrate with family on Thanksgiving, seeing that they would already be coming anyway! But we also wanted to celebrate with friends... sOoOoOo, 2 parties it is! Whew! Anyway, here are some of my favorite pics from Greer's celebration(s). Enjoy!

Red, White and Boo!

Alright. I'm finally blogging. (It's from my iPhone but it still counts!)
Bobby is out of town so I've been cleaning, doing laundry, running errands. But I'm a little bored of that. I'm also running out of stuff to watch from my DVR. So while Greer was napping today I decided to try to do some of the things I've been meaning to do... Lol.
So I edited our pictures from the July 3rd festivities at the bandshell on campus! It was such a fun event! We were a little worried about how Greer would react to the fireworks but she surprised us by sitting and watching in awe. Not one little whimper came out of her! Check out the pics from the evening...

Greer starts daycare in less than a month! Woah! There's a whole list of things that we'll have to do before she starts, one thing we need is to bring her own crib sheet. Now if you know me, you know she's not just going to be sleeping on a plain white sheet. I have to fancy it up somehow. So I decided, what would be cuter {and easier} than a notebook paper sheet. So that's what I made! I'm not quite finished though. I'm going to appliqué her name at the top and probably add a few doodles! I'm excited for the final product but here's what I've got so far!

And last but definitely not least, because this is probably my favorite video of all time... We have been playing peek-a-boo with Greer for a couple weeks and today she decided that she wanted to play! Luckily I had my phone in my hand so I could catch this cuteness on camera!

Greer's New Sound

Yikes! Haven't posted in OVER a month!!! Sorry....
Not really posting now.  Although I have lots to share, it's been a super busy summer and I haven't barely had a breath to spare! I just wanted to share this adorable video I got of Greer and me! She is growing so fast and is becoming quite a funny little girl! Check it out!

Greer has something to say.

Tonight during Greer's dinner, she just kept on talking. So I finally decided to let her tell her story... Enjoy!

Butterfly Rainforest

Hello again!
This weekend we had family visiting so we decided to take them to the Butterfly Rainforest at UF.  Little did we know, it would be so much fun for Greer! She was so interested in all the butterflies! She had her eye on all of them! Here are some pictures from our trip. Please excuse the blurriness (sp?).

This butterfly kept flying around Greer's bow!

A butterfly landed on Grammy!

Bobby snapped this pic just  as a butterfly few right up to my nose!

 

This pic was snapped just after a butterfly landed on Greer's toe!

One butterfly finally gave in to Greer's bow!

Our family, keeping drying in the rainy rainforest!

Well... I've been called out for slacking on the blog! I know, I know! The good news is there are only 10 days left of school and Summer is just around the corner. So hopefully, that will bring more blogging!

So anyway, a couple weeks ago my cousin J.T. graduated from Florida! How exciting to reach such a big goal in your life! We are so proud of you T! And we're excited for what's to come as you enter (dun, dun, dun...) the real world!
Here are some pictures from J.T.'s Graduation weekend!

Friday afternoon we surprised J.T. by painting the 34th Street Wall!

Such a cute picture!!!

A {blustery} Day at the Beach

Hello!

I just wanted to do a quick update... Last weekend, we went to St. Augustine for Greer's first adventure at the beach! Unfortunately, the weather was not great :( It was very windy and a little cool so Greer was pretty miserable... We really only stayed out there for about 30-45 minutes. But it was just long enough to get a few pictures! Enjoy!

The difference a year makes!

Baby Cousins

What a difference a year makes! This year, Easter marked the end of my maternity leave (and the beginning of the countdown to summer!) And although that little bitty gray cloud loomed over us, we had a fun time searching for "hard to find" eggs and playing together at the ranch! Check out the pics to see more!

 Good Morning Greer! Happy Easter!

 Time to hunt!

 Madison and her cutie little Cheese Puff Carrots!

Green Beans!

Hello!
We have been laughing and giggling a lot over here at the Wynns' House! Greer has just started eating baby food and boy is it a hoot! The spoon is still pretty foreign to her and she's not quite sure of the flavor of the food... So most of it comes back out faster than it went in! See for yourself in this little movie we made! Hope you get a little giggle out of it as well!

Quick Catch Up

I haven't written a post since the beginning of the month... now it's the end of the month... for that, I apologize. I do have good reasons though! I've been VERY busy with lots of different things! Here is a quick little catch up of all the things we've been up to...

1. We went to a BBQ with some of the Mommies and Babies from the Mommy Luncheon that I used to go to! It was so much fun to get together, for our husbands to meet and to get cute photos of our babies together!

*Those are my feet in the pic, ready to get my screaming baby... :(

2. I created some super cute invitations for my friend who was throwing a surprise birthday party for her Mom. I think these cards might be my new favorite design!

3. We headed down to Winter Haven to see Jacksonville State play (where Bobby played college baseball). I made a pillow case dress for Greer to wear to the game! It turned out very cute and we got some adorable pictures!

4. After the baseball game, we spent the weekend at my Mom's house. While we were visiting, my cousin Miranda and my Aunt Julie came over to do a photo shoot with Greer! Here is a "behind the scenes" shot I took. We can't wait too see the final products!

5. And finally, last weekend we didn't have any plans so I worked on opening my ETSY SHOP!!! AHHH! I can't believe it, but I've finally done it! I'm so excited to share some of my crafts, but I'm very nervous too! You can check out my shop by clicking here .

 This is my shop's banner!

Here are some of the items in my shop:

 Hair Bow Hanger

Chalkboard Labels

Gator Sign

So, that's what we've been up to lately...

I'd like to think I'll get back to blogging more regularly again but.... I'm going back to work in a little over a week! So we'll just have to see what happens.

One more thing...Our little Greer is 4 months old today! Wow!
