These are all the latest pictures that I have taken lately... As you can see he is a little turkey. He has lots of toys and needs nothing. Lilli Kathryn and Jessica came by for a visit on Friday and she is growing like a weed too... Braedon was sitting up playing in his room when they got here... Lilli Kathryn just watched him while she sat in my lap... I wish Braedon would sit in my lap still like she did for just 5 minutes a day but he is just to busy. His new favorite thing is his cup. He loves his juice. He is also giving sweet kisses when you hold him up and ask him for "sugar". His granny started this trick. Anyway he is growing growing as you can see. He weighed almost 20 pounds at the dr Friday, was 26 inches long, and did great during his shots. The doctor came in after it was all over with and asked what was wrong cause Braedon was screaming... well I had to tell Dr. Watson that I was not abusing him I was just getting him dressed... he laughed and said just to let him go naked!!!! Never seen a child that hates clothes as much as he does. Anyhow have a great week everyone... Can't wait to see the little ones from the Class of 2000 Easter weekend... Hope everyone can make it.

6 months Old

Well it's hard to believe my baby is 6 months old today. It seems like yesterday he was just so tiny now he is sitting up by himself, pulling himself across the floor, rolling everywhere, and attempting to get up on his hands and knees. The best thing he is doing is reaching for you when he wants you. Of course his mama is his favorite thing in the world and wants me whenever he sees me. I guess I just spoil him but hey what do I have better to do than spoil my 1st child.??? They are only little so long. WE had a great week home with Johnathan this past week and I turned 27 years old. I am getting old I guess. John and I had supper with Christy Carol and Dusty Wednesday night and it was super good especially after walking all the way to see Jenn Jenn just to find out she was at church. Thursday night we all rode to the river to see Grandma and Gerald and John and I took the boat out fishing. The boat was great I even drove it but it was cold I mean cold on that water... I will not be going back out until maybe June. Friday night Granny baby sat and John and I went to J Brousard's in Columbus to eat and it was delicious... I mean good the best!!!! We left there and went to Zachary's to meet Michael, Micah, Ellen, Brandon, Matt, and Beth to get my present from Michael. They all surprised me by having the waitress bring out cheesecake with a burning match for me to blow out (Micah said she didn't have no candles so a match had to work). It was super super sweet and I love them all for it. I guess Michael can be a wonderful brother. We all left there and went to the river walk for the Cook off they were having but John and I didn't stay long... IT WAS COLD. Saturday we went to town to by a printer with Granny and came home with a Toyota Sequoia... Boy was John shocked. I drove it all weekend and loved it but I decided not to get it. It was gorgeous and just what I wanted but I am not ready to go from 34 MPG to about 18 MPG especially with the summer coming up. We all ate supper at Michael's house while he worked on his truck and Sunday was just a lazy Sunday. After church, we went to Macon to eat lunch then we came home and Braedon and I were just lazy. I cleaned out his room and I am currently working on getting the rest done. WE had a family event we went to Monday at lunch. It was the first time I met some of Mrs. Pat's family in Scooba. We had fun visiting with them but it was a short visit cause I had to get back to work. John left Monday night and its just been us since. WE go get shots and check up Friday morning. I will update everyone on his Stats!!!! Maybe I will have pictures by then too. Have a great week!!!!!

John's week home

Well our little family has had a pretty laid back week... John came home last Tuesday and we basically just took it easy all week. John is really missing Braedon when he is gone but he sure catches up quickly when he is home and Braedon just watches him with awe... Although he will not let me to far out of his site but this is with everyone... I guess he loves me A LOT and feelings are mutual. I am not sure what John and I did before he was born but it couldn't be as much fun as we are having now. John and I did go to Charity Ball last Saturday night and it was wonderful but boy was is cold. I couldn't believe it was that cold when we headed to the car at midnight. It was weird though coming home to an empty house. We even contemplated going to get him from Mama's house but I quickly decided that I wanted to sleep. It was great but the next morning I was ready to go get him... SNOW AND ALL. It was snowing on our way home from Circle M but I never imagined we would wake up to a blanket of snow covering everything. I am a terrible mom though cause I didn't take Braedon's picture in his first snow. The wind was just terrible. We went to Mawmaw's to eat then came home and Braedon and I went to bed. John took his boat out for a spin on the lake... BOY WAS HE COLD. I then woke up sick... touch of the stomach virus from day care I am guessing.... thank goodness it did not last very long. Monday was a difficult day because John always goes back on Monday nights but this one was different. He decided last minute he wasn't going which was great but then it made it even harder when he left last night. BUT he left while we were in the bed so it was not as bad as it usually is. I took Braedon to have his picture made today... JUST FOR NICHOLE!!!! I have heard several complaints that I have not had them done since he was 2 months old and I do feel back but I just don't know what my excuse is. I didn't take too many though cause I am planning on doing some closer to April if he is sitting up completely on his own. Anyway have a great week... We also want to say CONGRATS to Ashia... We are excited!!!!!
