Labor Day Weekend 2011

This post is a little out of "chronological" order... but we had a great Labor Day weekend!  Kenny's family from Jackson, Tennessee came down to Gab and Pop's house.  Gab rented an 18 foot water slide... and Oh, what fun it was!.. and I do mean Daddy went down the slide, but ONLY ONE TIME.  He just about threw his back out and he hit the end of the slide full force... pretty much like hitting a brick wall!  Too too funny! Here are some pics from the great weekend....

This is the slide!  It was so much fun watching everyone! I was 3 weeks postpartum so obviously I decided to spare everyone's appetite by NOT putting on a bathing suit.  I am sure everyone was thinking "thank you!".

Jackson and Thomas

Gab and Dewey

Gab usually does the grilling... she likes to be in control of the grill at all times!  I really do love my mother-in-law...She is great, Christian lady!

Holley Farms October 8, 2011

This year we went to Holley Farms for our pumpkin patch visit.  It was AWESOME! We usually go to Blue Mountain, but this year we wanted to do something different. I am so glad we did.  There was tons of stuff for the kids to do. We could have easily stayed all day long.  The corn maze was the best one I have ever seen.  Lots of things for the kids to play on... cool slides... and a fun tractor ride!  Lyla Claire and Thomas had so much fun... Paxton was just along for the ride.

Good ole fashioned tire swing

They had lots of these little cars and trucks for the kids to play in.

We were on the tractor ride... these two were amazed at the haybales that were decorated like a cat, a pig, and a witch. Plus, this is a priceless shot of LC's curls! 

Paxton slept most of the time!  I thank the Lord a million times a day for his easy going temperment.

I love their expressions as they went down the underground slide. Lyla Claire kept saying, "I going Mommy. Yes I am!"

Bound and determined to swing across the hay stacks!  And after a million tries, HE DID IT!

Such a good Daddy!

Deer Camp with Daddy

Kenny took Thomas to deer camp to help him check the deer camera, refill the corn feeders, and put up a double tree stand.  Thomas was beyond ECSTATIC!  They had a wonderful day together. 

I am definitely in favor of the Nerf gun versus the real bebe gun.

Paxton 1 Month Old

I love this smile!  Absolutely adorable... even if I am partial.

Paxton, You are such a good little sleeper!!!! 

Paxton turned one month old on September 12th.. which is also Cissy's birthday! :)
He is growing so, so much.  He literally changes every week. We are totally in love with our newest family member!

• Size 1 diapers
• Size 0-3 months clothes
• Sleeping from 8:30 p.m. until 2 a.m., then takes 4 ounces of formula, and then sleeps until 6:30 a.m.
• Taking 4 ounces of Similac Sensitive formula every 3 to 4 hours

Thomas is truly proud of his little brother.  He tells Paxton he is going to teach him how to play soccer, shoot a bebe gun, and run really fast.  My heart continues to melt!

I love my 3 little kiddos. God has truly blessed me beyond what I ever deserve.

Little Mama!

We are all completely smitten with Paxton. He is a very pleasant baby.... and he loves when Thomas and Lyla Claire "talk" to him.
