First Birthday present!

Mitchell's birthday is Juyl 19th, but he got an early present on Saturday. We stopped by moms house Sat. morning to get the mower (John was heading to mow Grandmother/Pawpaw's yard) and Grandma gave Mitchell his first birthday present! He has been talking about the "Rocket Bike" for a good month now and he told Grandma that was what he wanted for his birthday! They left to go camping today, so she thought she would give it to him a little early, so he could use it! He LOVED it!

Very excited to see his surprise for the first time!
Woohooo! I FINALLY got it!

He looks like such a big boy on his tricycle with his Lightning Mcqueen helmet and elbow pads on. He wouldn't take them off for the ride to grandmothers!

Nashville Sounds

A week before we headed to the beach we thought we'd try a Nashville Sounds game for the first time with Mitchell. Clay, Lisa, and Michael also joined us. I guess we were feeling really adventurous because it was a double header with fireworks this night. The boys didn't care too much about what was going on in the game but they had a blast. Eating popcorn and playing on the blow up slide. Mitchell was really excited about the fireworks all night, but once they got started he was ready to go after about 5 minutes!

The fireworks hadn't even started-not sure why he's covering his ears! HAHA

Mitchell has really gotten in to taking pictures!


He took this one too!









Michael and Mitch. They took poor Ozzie down before we could get the first picture! HAHA

Happy Birthday to Pops!

We celebrated Pops birthday at our house on May 21st! I know a little late getting the post up but i just now downloaded the pics! We had burgers/hot dogs and the kids had lots of fun! We all went in together and got him an ipod. He mows a lot of yards, so we thought this would help pass the time a little better. Happy Belated Birthday Pop-we love you!

Mitchell and Maddie-you would think they were twins!

Panama City Beach '09

After our vacation getting off to a bumpy start(Mitchell and I both getting sick)we had a great time! Mitchell still wasn't a big fan of the beach, but he did like the sand a lot better this year. I think its the waves that he doesn't really like. We went putt-putting, go-karting, shopping, and lots of eating! We didn't have any probably getting Mitchell down for naps everyday-he was wiped out! The condo (Shores of Panama) that we stayed at was great-very kid-friendly!

Lovin' the zero-entry pool!
He had to be buried everytime we went to the beach!

Feeling better!

It wasn't an hour after i posted last night when John and Mitchell came back in from putt-putting and getting some Mcdonald's when Mitchell throws up all over the living room! He felt just fine afterwards though! He kept asking for french fries and milk. But i didn't think the milk was such a good idea! My mom decided Sunday night that she wanted to come down, so dad called the man who got us our room and she was here by 7 last night, just in time to run to Wal-Mart for us and buy some carpet cleaner and medicine for Mitchell. Mitchell slept great though and hasn't mentioned anything else about his belly hurting anymore-thank goodness. I'm feeling much better too-hungry but afraid to eat too much! I have been drinking plenty of water though. So we are just keeping our fingers crossed that noone else gets it! Luckily it was just a one time vomitting thing for us all, except i had the back door trots along with it too! HAHA I doubt i'll be posting any pics until we get back-forgot my cord to the camera! The weather has been beautiful! We are off to ride go-karts tonight! Have a great night!

Vacation

Well, our vacation isn't off to a very good start. John got sick at his stomach on Friday before we left but was better by that night. We thought we had escaped the glorious stomach bug, but we weren't so lucky. Last night we had a great dinner at Calypso Cafe here in Panama City. We all split a chicken quesadilla which had lots of peppers on it and mile high nachos. My stomach started hurting pretty much as soon as we got back but i just thought it was my acid reflux acting up, since it has been pretty bad this pregnancy. Well i didn't sleep a wink and @ 2:30 it started. I think Miss Shelby knew something wasn't right too, because she was doing a lot of squirming. I think i got less than three hours of sleep. I'm starting to feel a little better now-just hungry and afraid to eat. About an hour ago Mitchell says his tummy was hurting, so we shall see the outcome of that. John went ahead and got some meds for him just in case-they are out playing putt-putt and eating now. I just hope we didn't give it to everyone else thats here with us. I'll keep you updated! Hopefully the rest of the week goes better!

Potty Trained and off to the beach!

Well we have been bribing Mitchell now for a couple months by saying, "If you'll just poo-poo in the potty, we'll take you to Chuck-E-Cheese! He's had the peeing part down now for a couple months and will actually go on his own now. But he finally decided to go #2 a few days ago. He was in the nude and i noticed him squeezing his cheeks together! His underwear was on the table in front of him, so he immediately said, "I need to put these on." I told him no, then John jetted him off to the potty and he went! SUCCESS! He thought it was pretty neat too once he finally did it! He tried going yesterday, then went again this morning! So i'm hoping he has it down now! So he and John took off to Chuck-E-Cheese as promised this morning. I had to work, so I'm missing out on the fun! My goal was for him to be trained before he was 3, so we just made it! But lots of moms had told me that the closer boys get to 3, they just get it! I'm hoping he'll get really good at it and not regress here in a few months once Shelby arrives-then its back to buying diapers! Woohooo! HAHA
We are headed to Panama City early Sat. morning. We are all very excited! I'm still trying to figure out how i'll lay out on my belly though!
Congrats to my cousin Darryl and his wife, Tiffany on the birth of their little girl Makyna Reese this morning! She weighed in at 8lbs. 3oz. And good luck to Kelly tomorrow on her induction!
