The Dog Days of Summer

July's been a great month. From hanging out with Dad on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and eating Stage 3 foods, to crawling around and snooping around the apartment, Mayes has hit a significant growth spurt and we love it!






This is what happens...

Hangin With My Peeps

Over the last few weeks, Mayes had established a core group of homies, and while some live far away (Pic # 1 and Mayes future Cabin 1 bunkmate David), others are nearby (Pic 2 Ben, Pic 3 Ellison). In fact, with the recent flux of female infants within our church community, Mayes has it made for Prom 2026.

Nap Time

Video set up: Over the last few days, Mayes inevitably starts his nap time by scaling his crib and crying when his pacifier drops to the floor. Here's a sneek-peek to what we typically encounter five minutes into nap time.

Saving Face

Our attempt at eating with a happy kid...

4th of July Weekend

Over the long weekend, the Johns Family headed out to the northern neck of Virginia, spent some quality time with friends and family, and discovered ways of smearing mashed sweet potatoes all over our faces (ok, that was just Mayes...and Maggie).
