Magic Kingdom Day 1

We went to Disney a few weeks ago and had a blast! Clint had the Homebuilder's convention, so we all decided it would be fun to tag along :) My Mom went with us and we were SO THANKFUL she did. We couldn't have done it without her and are so grateful for all she always does for us. Thanks Nana for loving on all of us!! Hannah Grace had the best time and sweet Knox did really well. I am going to do several posts, since I have so many pics. Please excuse the picture quality. I forgot my camera in the car at the airport :(, so I had to use my i-phone.

First Flight with Nana and loved it :)

Knox did great on the flight, except on the decent. We didn't know it at the time, but he had an ear infection, so he screamed the entire 20 minutes of the decent into Orlando. It was not fun, but we made it :)

At the Magic Kingdom entrance and so excited :)

Dancing with Daddy to the fun music

Loved riding on Daddy's shoulders in the park

An exhausted little boy!

Favorite Ride was the teacups. Nana and Hannah Grace rode it about 5 times in a row!

Upset to leave the teacups :)

Fascinated with "It's a Small World"

Silly boy having a blast with the laundry basket :)

Knox is already 8 months, but I wanted to remember some of the things he experienced and firsts during this month. First, I just have to say what a complete Joy this boy is! His smile is so contagious and just melts me, every time I see it. He is so much fun and has the sweetest little laugh! He is still into everything and always wants what his sister is playing with :) Well, this causes a problem and makes me feel like I play referee all day long. Hannah Grace is slowly getting better about sharing her things, but this is still a huge work in progress. Knox is aggressive! It is so interesting the difference between girls and boys this young. I can already tell such a difference between Hannah Grace and Knox. He will bang on things and pull and wrestle with Hannah Grace. She never did this and still doesn't like it. It is funny to watch her whine and get upset over Knox messing with her! Knox still is eating really well, but he is definitely developing preferences. His favorites are yogurt, green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, spaghetti, oatmeal, puffs, cheerios and really anything he can pick up. I think we are about to give up on baby food. He just doesn't seem interested anymore and prefers to pick up his food and do it all on his own. He is babbling a lot more these days and said "mama"! He is very active and a few weeks ago started pushing around his little push toy like a champ! We have had a long month in the Johnston family with sickness. We all have had the stomach bug, colds and multiple ear infections. Poor Knox has had 3 in a month 1/2, so we go to get tubes for him soon and we will get Hannah Grace's 2nd set too. I guess my kids are just prone to getting ear infections :( I think that is about all for this month. 9 month post coming after we go to the doctor and a Disney Post from our recent trip to Disney World!

Roll Tide

We watched the National Championship game with friends and had gotten a sitter for the kids. When we got back from Celebrating, Knox decided he wanted to be up and celebrate too :) We took a celebratory pick since he was up and noticed later that he was doing the exact same thing as Daddy! So cute holding up their #1's together!
