Poole Party

Boy meets girl through prayer team for Campus Crusade for Christ. Daniel always wanted to sit beside Jess because "she smelled good." After being "friendly" for two years, we started dating in April 2006, married in October 2007, and had our first baby girl, Piper, in October 2010. Here's hoping more will join our party soon.

Piper loves Uncle David






Piper loves Uncle David! They came in for Thanksgiving, and it made Piper oh-so-happy!

Legwarmers are good for Thanksgiving



Jerica's Costume Shower


My friend, Jerica, had a super fun costume-wedding-shower. It was the first thing I did without Piper. My BFF and her mom went as flappers and a pimp (Emily already had the costumes!) I think the only reason I went is because Jerica is such a great friend, AND the venue was less than a mile from my house! So I was only away from Pipe for an hour or so. It is so refreshing to get out with friends, no matter how much you love your children! Every mom needs to do it!

Baby's First Halloween


Piper was still in newborn clothes on Halloween. So her Halloween costume didn't fit, and looked silly. I took it back, and we settled on a "Baby's First Halloween" shirt instead. That's ok, right?
We didn't even do anything. Let's be honest, Piper wasn't a month old, I was still freaking out when she was around too many people, and so I didn't really care to take her anywhere! So we just went to my mom's. And these are the only pictures I got... Oops.

Baby Dedication Day


My home church, Antioch Missionary Baptist, has a "baby dedication day" once a year. This so happened to be when Piper was three weeks old (the day after my grandfather's funeral). So it was her first time to church! We just stayed for the dedication part, so we snapped a few pictures when we got home.


After church, we went on a walk at Barboursville Park (our favorite place to walk.) Piper was SO little!
Then, of course, Malakai came over that evening and put the moves on Piper. Even though her baby acne was in full swing! :)
