Henry was tickled to get behind the wheel of his new Power Wheels truck. We purchased it at a seasonal resale a few weeks ago in Memphis. Randall did an overhaul on it (tricked it out…for those of you who know the lingo!) and finally let him drive it. It was more of an attemptContinue reading “Little Big Fun”

School days
School Days, School Days… The kids went to school today. Not “real” school, as we call public school, but a homeschool academy that meets on Tuesdays. Everyone was excited, and everyone was a bit apprehensive about going this morning. They all looked so cute. I wish I had taken a picture. I just don’t evenContinue reading “School days”
Smart Little Gobble Gobble
My little turkey can say “gobble gobble” and “give thanks”. It makes my Mama heart so proud. He is a sponge and I love it! This week I am making a thankful tree for us to have on the table at dinner time. It has made me think of all the little bitty things weContinue reading “Smart Little Gobble Gobble”
A Big Buck
Daniel scored the first big buck of the family. We are so proud…but not near as proud as he is. Look at that smile!
My Funny Little Fella
I am loving this boy. I know you already know this, yet I just can’t express it enough. I am just loving this stage. Every stage has its perks. This one makes me laugh…and we all know how I love to laugh. It also makes me tired in a whole new tired way. It isContinue reading “My Funny Little Fella”
Beach Bums
Henry took his first trip to the beach this past week. We visited Orange Beach, on the Alabama Gulf Coast. It was great fun for all 3 of us….yet Henry had the most fun, I think! It was such a joy to watch him get hit by his first wave. I love that I actuallyContinue reading “Beach Bums”
B-I-B-L-E School on Main Street
This past week Henry went to B-I-B-L-E school at our church. Henry loves the “B-I-B-L-E” song that we play in the Tahoe over and over and over and over again, so when I would say “Bible School” he would say “B-I-E ” (That is how he spells it and he drags the E out forContinue reading “B-I-B-L-E School on Main Street”
Zoo Fun
We took this little curly headed cutie to the Memphis Zoo the other day. He loved the farm animals a lot. I think because most of his animal toys make farm animal sounds, so he was familiar with them. He called the donkey “mama”, but he called the gorilla “daddy”, so that made it allContinue reading “Zoo Fun”
Trike-A-Thon
Henry participated in his first trike-a-thon this week at his little school. It was a fundraiser for St. Jude, which is near and dear to my heart. I was an intern there for 2 summers and then worked in the leukemia clinic for a while after college. So, I am always up for helping continueContinue reading “Trike-A-Thon”
Snow Baby
Something about snow makes me want to belt out the song from White Christmas,”Snow, Snow, Snow…” in my best opera voice. Good thing there is no voice record option on here, huh?! Henry finally got to play in the snow for the first time. Last year he saw snow from the window, but he wasContinue reading “Snow Baby”
