Fathers Day

So we had a wonderful day yesterday. Braxton and I left Jonathan sleep in and made him breakfast in bed although he chose to bring it back to the kitchen so he wouldnt get syrup on the bed. (thanks honey) We gave him his presents and his cards and let him have his day. He chose to swim so we went swimming and then got out and came inside and we all took a 4 hr. nap!! We got up ran to his dads and his grandfathers and then had supper with my dad and grandfather. I hope all Daddy's had a wonderful fathers day yesterday. Even though I don't get to spend Father's day with my Daddy anymore I do miss him something terrible every day it just seems alittle more difficult on Fathers day. However I am still lucky enough to still have another dad here with me. He treats me like his own and loves me just as much, and as for me I feel the same about him. So i hope you had a wonderful Father's Day as well even if you had to spend Father's Day in your memory with yours. HAPPY FATHERS DAY to all the WONDEFUL Fathers out there and THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!! Esp. my Hubby and BOTH of my DADS!! LOVE EACH ONE OF YOU!!! Later Taters

If you are reading this YOU ARE TAGGED!!!

OUR 1 AND ONLY

So.. Jonathan and I have know since we started dating that we only wanted one child and have never thought different. We had discussed me just having the surgery when I had Braxton but my doctor wouldn't do it. So as of today, Jonathan, being the VERY BRAVE and wonderful father and husband he is commited the ultimate sacrifice and got "fixed". So far so good he is not in any pain and they told him to lay on the couch today and then he could resume regular activity tomorrow. He is such a wondeful HUBBY!! Now I know many of you are probably thinking we have lost our minds and we are too young to do something like this but we have thought long and hard and weighted all of our options and we are very happy with our decision. We are just going to have 1 little spoiled brat that has all of our love!! So if you could keep Jonathan in your prayers that would be wonderful!! Also Braxton is fighting a virus and MAYBE salmonella, we won't know for sure until Friday if it is or not. Bless his heart since Sunday he has had bad tummy problems and high fever and really horrible tummy cramps.. He is just so sad to watch because she is telling us there is nothing we can do except let it run its course.. It will break your heart i tell you.. I will update when we hear more back from his dr. Until then I will leave you with a picture of my two poor sick men.. Later Taters

VACATION PICTURES

Finally I get a few minutes to post some pictures from our vacation. We went to Destin for a week with my family and had a wonderful time even though I hate the beach and I hate sand. Jonathan loves it so we are going to swap it up each year, that means next year we are going to Tennessee :)!!

Vacation

We are home from vacation and had a wondeful time. I will post some more pictures when I get a chance...

MY BABY IS 1 :(

So this past weekend we had Braxton's first birthday party! It was a blast and sad all at the same time. It just amazes me how fast time flies by. Its just not fair, they are suppose to be little and want to sit on your lap and just look up at you forever!! Not running around, climbing on furniture, pulling stuff out of the cabinets, picking up and eating bugs or much less just plain walking. And its like he is picking up a new word every day, its just crazy how fast it goes. So anyway he had a construction party complete with bulldozer and dump trucks and the whole kit and caboodle. I myself, ran my self ragged trying to make it the best birthday party every created in all to figure out he could have cared less that the cake had trucks on it or his smash cake wasn't a 100 percent a replica of a hard had. But I gave it my all and tried my best and I will say it turned out the best it could have possibly turned out minus the homemade ice cream that for some strange reason decided it just wasn't going to freeze that day (always be prepared with Blue Bell, I wasn't however but the show did go on). Now to the good part. He had ATON of presents and was not at all interested in opening them after he received his ride on toy that he just couldn't wait to get out of the box before trying to ride. So mom ended up opening the presents and while he rode around. But we were very thankful for everything he received and he has played with every toy so far however it will take him several months to wear all the clothes. Now on to the presents he received so much I am probably going to leave out some stuff because it was like Christmas morning all over again. On the list we have(big breath) a toy box, a picnic table, 2 Elmo water play mats, a bubble machine, a Elmo sprinkler, Little People zoo complete with the animals and extras, a phone, some book, some puzzles, Doodle Pro, A TON of CLOTHES, some shoes, sand toys, money, 2 ride on toys, a John Deer Tractor ride on, bubbles, a sprinkler hose, fishing pole, baseball glove and ball, some trucks and cars, new bedroom decor, a sandbox, and last but not least the best present of all- the Overall Bill quilt my granny(the one that keeps him during the day) made completely by hand with alittle help for some of the women in the family(my mom, Andi and myself). IT IS BEAUTIFUL.. The picture does it no such justice what so ever. It is so great I think I will just give it its own individual post when i take individual pictures of each square for now you just get the whole picture. He had a blast didn't really dig into his cake like he did for the photo shoot earlier in the week but all in all he was plum tired and passed out when almost everyone had left. Now I only have a yr(which i have now realized flies by) so I must go start planning the next one!! JK!! Later Taters
