Jimmy is 20!!

 Wow, Jimmy is no longer a teenager. He's 20. How in the world did that happen?! Once again, we were not able to be with him on his birthday and in typical "adult" birthday style, his birthday was sort of a non event. There wasnt anything he really wanted (other than sleep) . He was able to sleep in a bit (no football on his birthday) and hang out with his friends. Tracy ordered VMI cookies for all august birthdays on the team and they had their SoCon ring ceremony the day before so. ...I do think it was a good day afterall. Some of our favorite photos of this driven, smart, curious, committed, hard working, honest, extroverted, passionate, talented, funny, intentional, loyal and wholey unique kid.  We love you to bits!! XOXOXO Mom and Dad (we wish your birth and foster families could know you, we know they love you and would be so impressed with who you are, what you believe in and how hard you work)

His selfies are the best

SUCH a happy baby 

His 1st uniform, he was so stoked 

The boys, Jimmy, Joey and Hayden 

They switched babies on us! 

The cookies Tracy ordered, a bit hit 

XOXOXO

He's sweet on Maui.

Jim Fellows had bowling shirts made for all of us, needless to say, Jimmy's didnt fit for very long 

SoCon Rings!! 

Thumbs up is another signature look 

He "won" the costume contest that year and quickly agreed that Tracy should have actually won for how much work she put into it
