All boy!

I've got the camping trip pictures downloaded, just don't have time to do a blog for them yet...it's been really busy at work here lately. Anyways, here are few pics. We were so happy to see the rain last week that I let Mitchell play in the mud. Pops and John were working on the deck, so Mitchell thought he needed to be outside too, so this is what happened!

BEFORE:

All nice and clean

AFTER:

Weeeee, this is so much fun!
Don't worry Uncle Dan & Dave, the shoes came clean! :0)

Dirty boy!I guess he had had enough of the mud, so he decided to head back in.

It's been a while!

I've been slacking on the blogging lately, I know! We have been trying to finish up everything at the house. We are now working on getting the 1,000 sq. foot deck built HAHA It's not really that big, but John made it pretty close! It will be so nice though once its finished! Grandmother and Pawpaw are working on patching the hole where the leak was and the electrical will be getting inspected soon, so things are almost completed!
We went to the doctor today for Mitchell's 15 month check-up ( a couple weeks late) He weighed 28 lbs. 12oz. and was 33 inches long. Both are in the 90th percentile or above! I think we have a center in the near future! He did really well with his shots too. The first one his eyes always get really big because I have to hold him down, then he feels the pain, then he cries through the next three shots, but once we walk out of the room he's fine! Tough like his momma! :0)
I have lots of pictures from our camping trip to Defeated last week, i just haven't downloaded them yet, I hope to get to that soon. I took so many, I'll probably have to put them all on some software like my sister-in-law did. Well we are off to Trousdale County High School tonight for Trunk or Treat!

Fun Fall Saturday!!

Yaaaabbaaadaaabaaadoo!!! Bam-Bam made his first appearance out in public this Saturday. The City of Mt. Juliet had a Fall/Halloween Festival Saturday at the local park. We just so happened to get there right for the costume contest. John thought I knew the schedule or something, but i had no idea. Let me just say, Mitchell is not shy when it comes to being on a stage. He worked the judges over, then didn't want to come off the stage! LOL Afterwards they lined us all up on the ground level so the judges could take one more look and he was heading straight for the steps to go back on the stage! They chose a top 5 and Mitchell won! He got a new toy out of the deal!!
Bam-Bam playing with his club! Thankfully he didn't hit anyone.

Grandma and Mitchell waiting for the contest.

Mitchell playing with his winnings!

Saturday night Pops & Grams church had a hayride/cookout, so we made our way to Hartsville to have a fun night with them. If Mitchell doesn't turn out to be a farmer, I'll be really shocked. He absolutely loves tractors and anytime there is one he has to get on it and take a ride.

Yeeeehaaaawww! Mitchell with some hay in his hand.

Let's go for a ride!

Start it up!

Farmer mommy and Farmer boy!

And this years Halloween outfit will be....

It's a pretty pink butterfly!!!!! HAHAHAHA Only kidding! We were at The Children's Place last weekend and Mitchell's daddy, Uncle Daniel, & David decided to play a joke on Mitchell's mommy! :( I was over shopping for Maddie (Daniel did a really good job of distracting me) then I hear, "Kristin, come here a minute" I go to the other side of the store and I see my son in a pink butterfly costume! I couldn't stop laughing because Mitchell had no clue what was going on, so he was just being his normal self of getting in to everything as you can see in the last picture of him grabbing for some shirts!
Here is the real Halloween costume for this year!
It's BAM-BAM! Reason we chose Bam-Bam is because there have been several people call him this. The first week Trevor came to church, Pastor Andrew made Craig hold Trevor up for everyone to see, then he said, now hold Bam-Bam up next to him and as John held him up, he went after Trevor! So it just sort of stuck. Then this past Saturday at Maddie's party, Uncle Billy called him Bam-Bam too, so we thought it was very fitting. Hopefully it won't be too cold, so he can wear the outfit just like this.

Papaw& Grandma picked the material out for Mitchell at JoAnn's for $3! WOW, what a deal on a Halloween costume! Grandmother made the outfit and also covered his baseball bat with some brown material!

I couldn't keep the sash part around his shoulder because it wasn't tacked down yet.

You better watch out when Bam-Bam is around, because he WILL hit you with his club!

A few more pics from the party!

All the cousins!

Mitchell says, "Diaper check"

Happy Birthday Princess Maddie!

Mitchell wanted me to make sure and tell cousin Maddie, Happy Birthday! Today is her actual birthday, but her party was Saturday at Pop's & Gram's house. She had a blast! She really loved her cake, so much that her mean momma had to take it away from her, because she was afraid she was gonna eat the whole thing! She also got LOTS of pretty clothes. Here are a few pics from the party from Aunt Diana's camera! I'll try and post more from my camera later on.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

OH BOY, here comes the cake!

YUMMY! I thought she was gonna eat the back of her hand off.

Mitchell with cousin Cade. He's such a cute little chunker!

Entertainment for the little ones.
