This weekend went really well!! Alabama won their first game and I got to see baby Curt. HOWEVER, When I got home Saturday night this is what I found!!!
But never fear! Regardless how frustrated I got at Gracie for acting out this little man made it all better!
Isn’t he cute in his new swing all wrapped up!?!
My nephew, Curtis Michael Cashion, made his grand (and fast) arrival on Friday, August 21st. He was 9 pounds and 7 ounces, 22.5 inches long!! He is a big boy for sure. Although he was 2 weeks early he was very, very ready to come out! Around 7:35ish Carrie Beth and Lee went to the hospital. They called to let us know they were on there way there but didn’t want us to head that way until they knew what was going on. Well at 8:13, I got another call from Lee (after they saw the nurse) and he said it is happening NOW! Then at 8:57 pm, little Curt was born!! Carrie Beth had no plans of having a natural childbirth, but Curt had another idea! When they got to the hospital she was already 10 cm! By the time I got there at 9:45, the nurses were filling out her “pre-admin” forms….kinda backwards! LOL! Carrie Beth officially became my hero that night!! I mean, come on, a 9 pound baby NATURALLY!!!
Nevertheless, both mom and baby (and dad) are doing great. They got to go home Monday morning and Curt got to meet his brother “Buddy Fat Pants” on Wednesday. I will be going to Pelham on Saturday and will get more pictures. Until then, here are a few pictures from Curt’s hospital stay.
Me and baby Curt!!
First time grandparents!!!

Friday night my former roomies, Julie, came into town and stayed with me for the evening. I even think she really enjoyed getting to sleep in her old room!! Nevertheless here are some pictures of what can happen when roommates reunite!
This past weekend I went to Connecticut to attend my 3rd cousin Hillary’s wedding! Although my visit was very quick, I had a great time! Here are a few pictures from the trip!
Mom and cousin Lauren (who is showing us her belly), She is way to cute for words but boy can she cut you a stare!!
Me and Mom found a new calling in life! These are the bouquets for the bride and her maids!
This is the “Boathouse” where the reception was held!

I know! I had a theme going of self-taken pictures with my cousins. I didn’t get a picture will all of them but I am sure my mom has some pictures that I can post later!!
Bad Apple Frames to the rescue! Mom (and Dad) made me 5 picture frames and brought them down to Tuscaloosa this weekend! I don’t think these pictures give them enough justice! And Mom has finally got the website up and running for her business. Check out www.badappleframes.com!!

Another frame for the guest room!
This is the frame that Mom made for Lee and Carrie Beth! It is HUGE!!
Steal of the week! I found this at TJ Maxx for $25. It may look small in the picture but it is actually 3 and half feet tall!
Mom once again did a fabulous job making curtains for my guest room! I thought they turned out great and it was just what the room needed!! THANKS MOM!
