ONE BLESSED MI MI!!

THIS IS MI MI WITH ALL 6 OF HER HANDSOME GRANDSON'S!!

HANDSOME BOYS!

WILD LITTLE BOYS THAT LOVE THEIR MI MI!

ONE BATH WAS NOT ENOUGH!!!

THIS LITTLE TURKEY GOT HIS JAMMIE ON AND ESCAPED BACK TO THE TUB FOR MORE FUN WITH HIS BROTHER'S BEFORE WE COULD CATCH HIM!!! AS YOU CAN SEE HE THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY AND I COULDN'T HELP BUT LAUGH AND TAKE PICTURES, OF COURSE:)!

DON'T WORRY.......

JAX WAS NOT IN THE STROLLER WHEN THIS HAPPENED,BUT SOMEHOW I MANAGED TO RUN THIS POOR THING OVER:)! I PUT JAX IN HIS CAR SEAT AFTER OUR LOVELY STROLL AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE THE BOYS GO TO SCHOOL AND THEN COMPLETELY FORGOT TO PUT THE STROLLER UP. I BACKED UP AND THOUGHT I HAD HIT A CAR OR SOMETHING, THEN IT DAWNED ON ME I HAD HIT THE STROLLER. GOOD THING IT WAS ONE OF THE CHEAP ONES! SO, TO ALL YOU OTHER MOMS OUT THERE THAT DO STUFF LIKE THIS DON'T WORRY IT IS NORMAL.......OR AM I THE ONLY ONE:)??????

MT. LAUREL FESTIVAL

THE BOYS AND WESTON WERE SUCH GOOD HELPERS LAST WEEKEND AT THE FALL FESTIVAL HELPING US PROMOTE OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD. MI MI, DADDY, AND JAX HELPED TOO. THEY ALSO GOT TO JUMP IN THE BOUNCERS, GOT TO SEE THE GHOST BUSTERS, AND GOT SOME GOODIES FROM MI MI, OF COURSE. THEY WERE SO CUTE HANDING OUT ALL THE OCC STUFF AND IT JUST MAKES MY HEART SMILE TO SEE THEM WORKING FOR JESUS:)!

A LITTLE BASEBALL WITH A LOT OF ENTERTAINMENT!

THE BOYS HAVE BEEN DOING SO GOOD, BUT MOST OF ALL HAVING FUN AND ENTERTAINING US. AUSTIN GOT IS FIRST REAL HIT OFF THE PITCHER YESTERDAY AND AIDEN GOT TWO. AIDEN PLAYED SECOND BASE AND STOPPED THE BALLS THAT CAME TO HIM. AUSTIN DID SOME ENTERTAINING IN THE OUTFIELD:)!

THIS HAPPENED LAST WEEK ON A MAKE UP GAME: WHEN THEY FINISHED THEY SHOOK THE OTHER PLAYER'S HANDS AND WENT ON TO THEIR SEPARATE TEAM HUDDLES. WELL, I LOOKED UP TO SEE AIDEN IN THE OTHER TEAMS HUDDLE AND COULD TELL HE WAS RUNNING HIS MOUTH. THEN ONE OF THE OTHER LITTLE BOYS STOOD UP AND OFF WENT AUSTIN TO CHECK IT OUT AND HAD HIS BROTHER'S BACK. FINALLY I GOT RJ'S ATTENTION TO GO GET THEM AND WE ASKED AIDEN WHAT HE WAS SAYING. WELL, HE WAS TELLING THEM ALL THAT THEY LOST AND THEY WERE LOSERS. OH MY, I CAN ONLY SAY I HOPE THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO FOR THE NEXT HOWEVER MANY YEARS. I HAVE A FEELING IT IS AND IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE. NEEDLESS TO SAY WE HAD A CHAT AND EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT WAS NOT NICE AND EVERYBODY WINS. HE HAS NOT DONE IT SINCE, SO MAYBE HE GOT THE POINT. I HAVE TO SAY IT WAS PRETTY FUNNY. GUESS HE TAKES AFTER MOMMY AND IS VERY COMPETITIVE AND IS NOT SCARED TO LET IT SHOW:)!

HAVING FUN!!

YES, I KNOW HE NEEDED A HAIR CUT!

HE GOT ONE TOO AND DID GOOD FOR PAW PAW. I USUALLY HAVE TO HOLD HIM DOWN AND WHEN PAW PAW CAME TO TAKE THE BOYS FOR THEIR HAIR CUT HE SAID HE WAS TAKING JAX TOO. I TRIED TALKING HIM OUT OF IT BECAUSE I JUST KNEW HE WOULD BE PITCHING A FIT,BUT HE DID GOOD. HE NOW LOOK LIKE A BIG BOY WITHOUT HIS SHAGGY HEAD:)! I WILL POST PICTURES SOON!

HAVING FUN AT THE LAKE!

THESE WERE FROM LAST WEEKEND AT THE LAKE! IT WAS BEAUTIFUL AND THEY WERE SWIMMING IN OCTOBER!! THEY DID NOT SWIM LONG, BUT I COULD NOT BELIEVE THEY GOT IN THERE. THEY HAD FUN PLAYING WITH GRIFFIN AND MADISON AND JUST BEING SILLY LITTLE BOYS!

WHAT A DAY......

THESE WERE FROM OUR VERY LONG DAY AT THE ALLERGY/ASTHMA DOCTOR. WE WENT IN TO DO AUSTIN'S ALLERGY TESTING FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AND FOOD ALLERGIES TO SEE IF THAT WAS CAUSING HIS EOSINPHILIC ESOPHAGITIS DISEASE, BUT THEY WERE ALL NEGATIVE. HE DID SO GOOD AND ONLY TEARED UP WITH THE LAST TWO SCRAPES. IF YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS DONE, BE THANKFUL. IT IS PITIFUL TO WATCH, BUT HE DID AWESOME. WE CHANGED UP HIS MEDICINE AND HE WILL HAVE TO BE RE-SCOPED IN A FEW MONTHS TO SEE IF THIS NEW MEDICINE IS HELPING ANY. I HATE THIS FOR HIM,BUT IT DOES NOT EVEN PHASE HIM. HE IS SUCH A STRONG LITTLE BOY AND SO USED TO DOCTORS AND NURSES POKING ON HIM ALL THE TIME.

WHILE WE WERE THERE WE MENTIONED AIDEN AND HIS BREATHING ISSUES. HE HAS NEVER TECHNICALLY BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH ASTHMA, BUT WE END UP IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM OR DOCTOR'S OFFICE A LOT FOR BREATHING TREATMENTS AND STEROIDS. HE WAS HAVING A FLARE UP THAT DAY AND DR. LAROUSA WAS SO KIND AND ASKED US TO BRING HIM IN THAT DAY. HE WAS AT RJ'S OFFICE, SO WE GOT AUSTIN SETTLED AND SWAPPED KIDS AND BACK TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE WE GO. THANK GOD BECAUSE WHEN I GOT TO AIDEN HE HAD GOTTEN WORSE AND AS SOON AS THE NURSE SAW HIM SHE GRABBED THE DOCTOR AND BEGAN BREATHING TREATMENTS AND STEROIDS. WE ENDED UP GOING HOME WITH A NEBULIZER TO DO THE BREATHING TREATMENTS AT HOME AND HE HAS HAD TO DO THEM A LOT LATELY WITH ALL THIS WEATHER CHANGING. SO AFTER ALL OF THIS WE MADE IT TO WAL-MART TO GET SOME PRIZES:)!

EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE SOME HEALTH ISSUES I STILL CONSIDER THEM SOME HEALTHY BOYS AND THANK GOD FOR THEM EVERY DAY, EVEN ON CRAZY DAYS LIKE THAT ONE! I AM BLESSED AND LOVE THEM ALL TO PIECES. JAX MISSED OUT ON ALL THE ACTION THAT DAY, BUT HE CAME HOME WITH A PRIZE TOO:)!

ONE PROUD MOMMY:)!

THIS IS AN ARTICLE THAT THE SHELBY COUNTY REPORTER DID ON OUR CHURCH'S HOMELESS MINISTRY. THIS IS SOMETHING I NEVER DREAMED MY FAMILY WOULD BE APART OF,BUT NOW CANNOT IMAGINE NOT BEING A PART OF THIS SPECIAL MINISTRY. I LOVE THE FIRST SUNDAY OF EVERY MONTH AND I PRAY ALL MY BOYS LEARN FROM THIS AND ALWAYS GIVE TO OTHERS IN NEED.

OLD, BUT CUTE!

THESE WERE FROM THE AUBURN VS CLEMSON GAME,BUT I JUST GOT THEM OFF MY LITTLE CAMERA THAT I TOOK INSIDE THE GAME. THEY WERE SO GOOD FOR THE FIRST HALF. OF COURSE, THE POPCORN, LEMONADE, AND DIET COKES HELPED:)! OH, AND THE COLORS AND PAPER MOMMY BROUGHT IN TOO!
