Happy late Thanksgiving!!! Sorry for the delayed salutation. I blame it on the leaf pile in Papas backyard. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! The chicken prepared by Nana was off the charts. We watched football, bull riding and Cars (for the 133rd time). All in all it was a great day. Hope you enjoyed your time with friends and family as well.

Psssss Jack, don't move! Stay very very still and whatever you do, don't panic. They can smell fear and it's all over from there. So, here's what we're going to do; on my count we're going to make a bolt for the stairs. Once we get to the stairs we'll have to depend upon our toddler quads and climb like mad! At the top of the stairs make a sharp left then a right, and for the love...keep your head down! We should be in the clear from there. Understand, if we get caught, its nap time. Is that what you want, is nap time?! Me either so go on my count...1-2-3-7-9-10 GO!

Well I know what I'm going to ask for when Christmas comes around. My goal is to put a toddler garage band together...that will sell!

Happy July 4th! However, we didn't enjoy the fireworks as evident by our expressions. I'm not fond of the loud death screaming noises that come from those things. We all decided to stay really close to our parents. Every time I wasn't paying attention one of those crazy things would go off and I would wet myself...good thing for diapers!

It's so fun being 1! I love cake!

Happy Mommy Day! Like daddy always says, "you're the hottest mommy in the world"! I think George Strait says it the best..."Here she comes a walking, talking true love, saying I've been looking for a new love, surprise your new love has arrived out of a blue clear sky"...(great album)! Mom, let's be real...I know I give you a hard time every once in a while, but that's not a reflection on you! What can I say? It's probably best summed up by Josh Tuner, "Lord have mercy on a country boy" (another great album)! Just remember that this country boy is in-love with you!

Oh Mommy, you're the prettiest mommy in the world! Look at me, I'm going to say MAMA!
I've come up with an acronym for MAMA:
M-mommy
A- apple
M- mommy
A- apple

I love you,

Crack, crack is the sound you'll be hearing if you don't get your hands off the little girl!

It's all fun and games until you move into a space that doesn't belong to you. Let's be clear, this space is at least 10 ft in circumference and by the looks of the previous picture you boys are in clear violation. 1-2-3 is the time frame I'll allot to you before your good day turns into a bad one! I just turned two today and I workout on a regular basis. Trust me you don't want to go blows with this toddler! I've been around the block once and I've learned a thing or two. Oh I'm just play-in, but seriously though I filled diapers bigger then you. Every time you think about laying hands on Sissy Jo just remember...my fist your face!
