OH I am thankful!

Thanksgiving was a blast! We traveled to see the grandparents that don't live in the NWA area. First stop poppie and Nana's house,which they just moved into, and we LOVE! They spoiled little Pax with lots of hugs and kisses, plus turkey and some of this chocolate desert that aunt cassie made (it was delicious!). Then they got him a little sussy: a walker so that he could show off those strong legs as he explored the house (more or less the kitchen b/c he can't quite get it to move on carpet yet). Then we were off the grandma's. Aunt LeAnna met us at poppie and Nana's to ride with us. It was a two hour trip but Pax did great. He slept for most of it. When we got there grandma had been cooking, the entire house smelled of sweet yams and Turkey. I do have to say my mom has the best yams ever (but I'm probably a little bias). We stuffed ourselves full of yummy food then got out the Christmas decor. We spent the evening decorating the tree, but not before mom took me to the best store ever!! Oh yes girls, Garden Ridge is any crafters paradise. We only spent an hour and a half there but I could have stayed ALL day! Seriously has everything. The next day we shopped, ate lunch and packed up to head home. Thanksgiving was great! I have pictures, but only from my moms house because I forgot that I had my camera with me. Sorry Nana, Poppie, Aunt Cassie and Uncle Rus!! I will post them soon.

We are so so thankful for you all and love you with all our hearts!

A SPECIAL HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

We want to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR FAVORITE UNCLE!!! Happy 26th uncle Rusty we miss you!

Pax: I wish it were warm outside so that you could take me swimming again in popie's pool! Can't wait for you to take me sleding (if it ever gets cold enough to snow) :) LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU

Milestones!

So today started like anyother day. We woke up 5:30 ish (and when I say we I do mean Paxton and me) and I fed him. He is always such a delight in the mornings. He wakes up with big smiles and silly giggles. Today was a little different because after I fed him he wanted to go back to sleep (which was good for mommy) so we slept in until around 6:45. This time when he woke up it was time to play so naturally he rolled over to daddy and pulled his chest hair :) I secretly love when this happens cause it alerts the big man and then we are all up! While our little guys was laughing and playing I noticed something white and hard looking in his mouth so I put my finger in and couldn't believe what I felt. Pax has his very first tooth!!!!!! YES GRANDPARENTS I SAID YOUR GRANDBABY HAS A TOOTH! It just makes my heart melt because my little boy is growing up WAY WAY to fast. He will be 9 months old this month and that is a shocker! Where does the time go?.?.

It has been such a blessing having Pax in our lives. We praise God for his gifts and his miracles and for trusting us enough to give us the honor of being parents.

HOpe you all have a great night
