walking....

Alexis is almost walking. Of course she wanted to do it on her own and not you "trying" to get her to.
On Saturday she was sitting in this booster seat in the living room that Lori brought over and she just stood up and took 4 steps right there.
She now is trying so hard to walk, the PT was so amazed that in less than a week what she has accomplished.

She also has said "mama" on last Thursday. She will also snap her fingers while dancing!! so cute!

She also started clicking her tongue which is so good for her speech!

I am so excited at all the progress she is making!

I hope she is fully walking by Christmas!

Oh and I never knew how much of a thumb sucker she is until watching her at school today she kept going for her thumb in between activities and such. now i see her do it all the time!

fall Photos










Here are some unedited pics from our fall photos

I will post more later

Dear Santa...

Austin told me that he is going to tell Santa he wants: Skateboard, trains, Cars, and skates.

Madison says she wants a baby doll and stroller.

When things come on TV or in an ad they want all of it!!

The funny things and cute things kids say!

Lately we have had some funny conversations and funny comments made around here. I feel like i need a tape recorder with me all the time.

Sunday madison is in the car on the way home from Church on her Princess Cell phone. she is calling Nana.
here is her conversation from what I can remember...
"Nana, how are you..mmm huh oh no why is your dog not eating..oh I am good I had a sucker today...oh mmmmhuh Come see me..oh really aww that is good...

She kept going and going...too funny!

Today after school in the car Madison says "Mommy can I say a prayer?" I said sure honey say it.
"Dear Jesus, thank you for my sucker, thank you for bubby's Gum and thank you for Ali, and Nana to get better Amen"

It was so sweet!!

Yesterday they were making food in the Play kitchen and Madison said here mommy I made you some sushi and here is the sauce you dip it in...LOL It was so CUTE!

Austin told me today that corn makes Popcorn. I just love how they just come up with stuff and figure things out on their own.

I have never laughed so much so hard...

At church today we had a guest speaker there. I have never laughed so hard, even crying laughing so hard and so much in my entire life. I have seen many comedians who have never made me laugh like that before.
This man, Joe McGee taught a parenting seminar on Friday and Sat that I could not attend so when i heard he was speaking at service I was so excited! He spoke a little from what he says in a parenting seminar and a lot about marriage.
He quoted so many verses that relate that i never even thought about. Me and Adam were nudging each other all morning because he spoke about so much that was true!
Every church should have him come talk every one should do a parenting seminar or marriage one.

I bought his CD set (that he taught at the seminar) on "8 things that no kid should leave home without"I bought the book "God knows how to raise your kids even when you don't"

I have heard his finance books are great! He is from TN he has 6 kids. He now lives in OK.

here is a marriage clip from him:
Many have been deceived by a common myth about marriage thinking, “if I marry the right person, I’ll live happily ever after,” only to wake up to a different reality.

Some couples spend their lives building each other up, but unfortunately, some spend their lives tearing each other down.

But God wants you to have the kind of marriage that makes other people jealous. You don’t just happen to find a great marriage. You build one. It’s a life-long process.

Marriage is the most intimate relationship possible—two people choosing to be together for the rest of their lives. But in order to build a strong, lasting and fulfilling relationship, you need the right tools—skills most of us got married without. But as the old saying goes, “It’s never too late to learn.”

Marriage Building 101 is for any age couple who has tied the knot or who is tied up in knots.


You can download a couple of audio files of him on his website.

President of the United States is....


OBAMA!!!
I have to say I am so excited to be a part of American History. I am excited for the change for the better. I am happy to get away from the last 8 years we have been through.

I am glad to see the outstanding numbers of people who voted!



Now lets all get together no matter who you voted for or what party you are for and lets work together to change America for the better and UNDO some of the Damage the last 8 years has brought us!

VOTE

Get out and Vote! I went this morning and it took 10 min! I missed the morning rush crowd!

You can not complain for 4 years unless you vote!

oh my luck!

Last night we went to Zaxby's to eat dinner and I was walking back to the table with the cups to get ready to fill up, as i was walking to the table I slipped on some water on the floor, I landed on my Left elbow and left knee. I also slightly twisted my right ankle. I blacked out for a moment not know what had just happened there for a few seconds. It was so not FUN! I am in so much pain!

I have to wait for the zaxby's ins co to call me so I can see a dr unless I want to payout of my own pocket (which I don't have because who knows how much that will be). I know I did not break a bone but who knows about the other stuff in my elbow or knee.

here are some Halloween pics




We had a fun time trick or treating. We did the Square first then came home took pics and waited for Daddy, Matt,Alicia, Nana and Pawpaw to go trick or treating. Boy we got a lot of candy. We ate Mexican afterwards!
Tinkerbell, Wendy and Peterpan were wore out!
