New Member of the Family....

We found a sweet little lab puppy and decided that we would suprise Lexi and Jade with it. They have wanted a puppy for a while now, me included. :)

Here he is on his way home...

I dropped Stefan off at home to get him settled in and I went to get the kids...

Here is the face when they walked into our basement

They were SO excited!

So SWEET!! :)

His first picture after he was named....

Tye

Botanical Gardens!

We went by the Botanical Gardens on Sunday... and I forgot my camera.

Here is a couple of pictures from my phone...

The Waterfall

Daddy and his babies

Sweet Boy! :)

Jade's 1st Boots!

(He's got his "Come on Mom" fake smile here.. He learns too quick)

Jade got his 1st pair boots and he LOVES them!

He loves to be like his Papa-Daddy. :)

Being Silly...

What can I say?

My kids are easily amused, and I'm so thankful for that! :)

Wild Game Cookoff

We went to the Wild Game Cookoff Thursday at the Zoo.

We have went for the past several years and like to try the different types of food!

We rode on the carousel!

Tried one animal and then decided to go to the next...

:)

And then we went to the petting zoo...

He LOVED the animals!!

And then Lexi was chose to do the drawing for the prices...

She was the "star" :)

So cute!

23 Months!

Oh my goodness, my baby is going to be 2 in a month. :(

I ordered his birthday theme stuff today and it's so cute!! But made me sad too.

These 23 months have just flown by and have been oh so much fun! The good times definitely outweigh the bad and I love my little Mr. more and more each day.

He weighs about 24-25 pounds

Size 4 Diapers

18-24 month clothes

Size 6 shoe

All teeth are in except for 2nd molars. –Loves to brush his teeth!

He is talking up a storm—Here are some words we hear on a daily basis: candy, Papa, Mama, Daddy, Sissy, MeMe and MawMaw (we have to call them every night for him to talk :)) Rock-Rock (the hamster), Pappy, Milk-Milk and Juice.

He is still not a good eater, but every once in a while he will pig out! :) But LOVES sweets and candy—that’s what he gets from his Daddy.

He loves to dance and “sing.” He sang along when we sang Happy Birthday to MawMaw the other day and MawMaw LOVED it! :)

Some of his favorite toys are: Sissy’s DS, his train, riding toys, his tools, and animals. He can really take anything and play with it and will be just as happy as having a toy!

We are looking forward to many many more months and watching him grow up into a big boy.

Working w/ Daddy!

Jade and Daddy have been working outside taking out all of our bushes today. :( Last Monday, when it rained so hard ALL day, our basement flooded. And they think that our bushes roots had grown towards the house and caused it so we are having to do LOTS of stuff to make sure it does not happen again.

 I'm thinking positive though, because I'm getting all new pretty bushes!! :)

We had to do the bushes on the front of the house, and then we decided we would do the ones in the back too so that they would match!

Were also having to replace some sidewalks and other concrete... (No including what all it messed up downstairs-- My brand new carpet; put in less than 2 months ago. :() 

It's been a mess!

MawMaw's Birthday!

MawMaw turned 73 years young on the 9th! :)

MawMaw's poor little cake, Ha! They didn't write what we wanted so my Mom "tried" to fix it and then we didn't have a 3, so we put a 2+1=3!! She still loved it!

Jade helped her blow out the candles!

Sweet Boy! :)

Roll Tide Roll!!

Football season is here, finally! :)

We had tickets for the game but decided to stay at home and watch with this little one and family.

Jade sitting close watching. :)

He is going to LOVE football as much as we all do!

MawMaw and Jade telling them to GO!

All that cheering on will wear out a little boy! --(Holding his Bama Bear)

ROLL TIDE!!!
