Keeping Them Rotten.

Since the last post, Tillman has attended her first gymnastics class and we have gotten some super-fun company in town. This post will take you through the first phase of the visit. I hope to take a few more pictures tomorrow before our guests leave. (Uncle Dan, Grandpa, Big Dep, & Little Dep) It has been an awesome time with some awesome family!

Heather came over to watch Carter while I took Tillman to gymnastics. 
I think Carter likes her... a lot. Look at that smile. 
Josh was at Coastal Carolina with McKinley for her freshman orientation. 

Tillman waiting patiently to start her first gymnastics class at Foothills. She did great, but boy did it exhaust the both of us. It was much more intense than I had anticipated. It was action-packed, which left me no opportunities to take pictures during the lesson. She had a great time though and we will be going back again this week for more.

Tillman showing off her "I Love Gymnastics" stamp she got on her hand at the end of the lesson. 

Friday mid-morning, Tillman and I enjoying a snack on the back porch while we waited for Big Dep & Little Dep to get into town. 

Little Dep loving on Carter. 

My girls. So proud. 

Dad and I went to REI Friday afternoon so Dad could get some trail/hiking shoes to take to Pigeon Forge & Montreat. They have this faux boulder set up so you can test the shoes on an incline. How fun & creative. 

These are some pictures Mom took while she hung out with Carter, Tillman took a nap, and Dad and I were at REI. She's doing well with her head/neck strength. Making progress.

Such a big girl so fast.

Dad breaking in his new shoes. (Shoes, not boots, as I was informed tonight.)

Playtime with Carter & Big Dep

Meet three males Tillman has wrapped tightly around her little finger. These three played outside with her for over an hour. They were everywhere and doing everything she requested. This is them at the sandbox. 

Tillman going down the slide.

Dan going down the slide.

Tillman & Dan going down the slide together. Check out Dan's face. Haha :) 

As per Tillman's request, a picnic snack break at the picnic table. We enjoyed cookies in the shade. Here Tillman is passing out cookies to everyone.

She loved it.

Tillman helping Daddy (Josh) wash the van.

She really got into this and ended up soaking wet by the end of it.

Great-Grandpa getting his hands on Carter.

He even fed her a bottle! :) 

My heart is full.

Tillman did have on a new bathing suit, but I didn't like how it fit. (We will be returning it.) So, we went back to gym shorts to play in the water and sprinkler bucket. 

Little Dep with her Littlest Love.

She's adorable.

I mean, look at this. So precious!

Who's in charge? Tillman, of course. She got them both up on her park all at the same time. They'd do anything that child requested. 

Big Dep gets his turn going down the slide. 

Carter spending some time in the Mamaroo.

Checking out the mobile. 

More tummy time

She's hanging out with her friends, Frog and Elephant.

More cuddle time with Great-Grandpa.

Great Uncle Dan's turn to feed Carter a bottle. Look at that excitement on his face.

Playing with Big Dep. He's funny. 

Tillman's new pirate beach towel from Big Dep & Little Dep. 
It's super-cute, complete with an eye patch and hook.

Ahoy, matey!

In reference to the orange scribble, Tillman said, "Mom, I drew a diamond." 
Good enough for me! I was impressed.

Tillman in her new Coastal Carolina shirt from Daddy. He got this for her on his trip. She'll be sleeping in it for a while before using it as an actual shirt. 

This weekend has been great so far! I hope to add more memories to it tomorrow morning. 
Good night, all.
