Niall's First Trip to the Beach

Gulf Shores, AL - Oct 5, 2008

Sittin' Up!

Niall Loves Doggies

Bath Time!

This is probably Niall's favorite time of the day. He does lots of kicking and splashing to get out any last bit of energy before bedtime.
Mmmm... a tasty, cow-speckled rubber ducky plus one strategically placed bath toy.
Niall is smiling at Grandma Fowler... he loves to put on a show for everyone while he's in the tub.

He's a water baby!

Niall loves playing in the water so much we went out and got him a little swimming pool for the backyard. Here he is splashing, swimming & lounging in his inflatable turtle.

The 3 Amigos!

We recently had a nice visit from the Bradley's and their twin boys - Wyatt and Parker. They were born about 6 weeks after Niall and they all seem to be getting along like peas and carrots so far!

The Jackson Family

Here are some recent pictures of the Jackson Family on their front porch in Atlanta. Grandma Fowler was in town last week and got to pose with Niall & Melissa as well.

Niall likes to pull Mommy's hair!

Some pictures from our trip to Lookout Mountain, GA

We recently spent a weekend at a Bed & Breakfast in Lookout Mountain, Ga to celebrate our 4th anniversary. We actually stayed at right across the street from the site of our wedding. We were able to walk down and "relive" some of the memories of that day. Here's a few pics from the weekend. It was a HOT weekend... so we all enjoyed some time in the pool - including Niall. He was just absolutely fascinated by the water.

Sweet Potatoes - Yummy!

Niall started eating some vegetables today - he seemed to really like the sweet potatoes that Melissa made for him... but apparently most of it ended up on his face and his bib.

Relaxing on the Porch Swing

Dad spent this past weekend installing a porch swing on the front porch (not as easy as it looks!) Niall was very excited to have a new place to relax and swing and play.
He does NOT like having the sun in his eyes - so it was the perfect day to try out his new safari hat.

Change my diaper already!!

Nothing brings a smile to Niall's face like getting naked on the changing table. He is really looking forward to the hot, summer months of Atlanta so he can spend more time with less clothing.

It's not a dress!!!

Here is little 5 month old Niall posing in his Easter gown & bonnet that his Grandma Fowler made for him.
