Thank You God For...

Our new home! We sold our condo this week and will be moving before Christmas!

Christmas trees!...Mommy put ours up before the condo sold so we will have to do it all over again soon! Fun times with mommy! We went to the Fantasy of Trees and I got my face painted. I was very still as long as I had my bells to play with.

Mimi! Thank you for finding my first tooth this week! It sure hurts but I'm glad I finally have one!!

Mellie! I love you even if you took my bells away. It's okay because you were afraid I would choke on them.

Carosel rides!

Yummy food and my wonderful Granddad who always would rather feed and play with me than eat himself!

My uncle Jonathan who came in from Murfreesboro to see me on Thanksgiving Day!

Hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving! We sure did!!

Oh No: Daddy's Hit the Big 3-0!

Last week on Veteran's Day Daddy turned 30. Mommy and I planned a surprise party for him at Trinity Hills the following Saturday. To keep him from suspecting anything, we surprised him at work on his birthday with a card, gift, and cake. I helped mommy sign the card...

Daddy was so glad to see us. I got to play in his office and eat his card. : )



On Saturday, Poppi took Daddy golfing to keep him away while Mommy got everything ready for the party. Mamaw and Papaw Brown came in for the party but they really just wanted an excuse to see me, ha! Papaw took me on a long walk that almost put me to sleep. I loved it!

Everyone waited for Daddy to show up at Trinity after he received a prank emergency call to get him to come there. He was relieved to find out the door was not broken and he could enjoy a birthday party instead.

All our family and friends came. We had so much fun!

This is me with my great-great aunt Betty and uncle "J".

Happy birthday, Daddy!!

Welcome Baby Ella!

Ella Ruth Whitley was born today around 1:30 weighing 8 pounds 8 ounces and was 20.5 inches long. She is precious. Great job Joe and Sara!! I practiced walking with Daddy while waiting to meet Ella.
Got to see Anna before we both had to leave for a nap. She got to wear a really cool mask when she met her baby sister.

Fran brought her a sweet gift.

Looks like a pround mama to me!

Having more fun with Daddy...had to leave for my nap before I could meet Ella though. Maybe I'll see her tomorrow?

Dr. Vick was the first person we talked to when we arrived. It was hard to believe it had been almost 9 months since we were there with him last. Mommy showed me the room I was born in and the nursery where they took care of me.

Maybe the next time I am here I will be a big brother??!!??

Trick or Treat??

TREAT! This is no trick...I really did turn into a pumpkin on Halloween. Met my buddies the day before for some pics at Cracker Barrel. I found out that I can rock myself. The rocking chair was just my size!Paige, Parker, and Faith were bumble bees and a honey pot. Too cute!

Jack and Jake cracked me up in their super cool costumes!

Anna stood by my side the whole time. Guess you could say I have a girlfriend. : ) I just couldn't resist the bow on the chair though. Unfortunately, it got more attention from me than Anna did.

See, I still have it...

I didn't get to stay for breakfast since it was naptime. I was so tired I fell asleep before we even made it home. Being a pumpkin is hard work!
Daddy took me and mommy to Trinity to visit on Saturday.

Mamaw loved my costume!

Then we went to Mellie's...

Me and Cuz Sophia trick-or-trerating at Grama's house.

Have you ever seen a pumpkin fly on a witch's broom? Neither have I but I did like playing with it.

I've already decided what I'm going to be next year (and no, not a witch). Guess you will have to keep in touch to find out...ha!
