December Activities


Here we are making Rudolph by tracing our hands and foot...poor Andy's Rudolph needs a little help though. HA! He really enjoyed his hands and feet getting traced so we have LOTS of pages with hand and feet prints.


Here we were making our snowman family. Andy glued the cotton balls and then picked what color hat we were to wear.


Here are our reindeer cookies we made with some sweet friends. Thanks Lisa for a fun-filled evening.


Well since the weather has been a little too chilly for Andy (and me) to play outside, we have been doing some fun and creative Christmas activities in doors. These were some little Christmas crafts I used to do with my first graders and Andy really has enjoyed doing them as well...well he likes to paint and glue...what kid doesn't-right?

Pants on the Ground

Showing off his mo hawk.

Playing and not even bothered with the fact that his pants are at his ankles. Needless to say it was about 67 degrees in our house too! One word...CRAZY!

So proud and oh so funny!


Alright I'm not sure where or what inspired Andy to do this, but a couple nights ago he and Billy were playing in the house. All of a sudden Andy decided to pull his pants down and starting dying laughing. It's a little crazy I know...but Andy thought it was absolutely one of the funniest things ever. He even stayed still for me to take his picture. CRAZY! Oh and check out his hair! When he woke up from his nap, he was kicking a mo hawk. Billy swears this is my child all the way, but I just don't know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!


The kiddos playing Memory with Mimi!
Andy and Zander doing some coloring!

The kiddos cheesing it up with the matching jammies Mimi and Poppy got them.

Jaylin and Andy cleaning the sun room after Grandma cut everyone's hair.

The two craziest people I know...need I say more!


Oh don't I have sooooooooooooooo much to be thankful for!
*Thank you Lord for dying on the cross for my sins.
*Thank you for the personal relationship I have with you Lord!
*Thank you for a godly husband that provides and leads our family.
*Thank you for a precious baby boy...Andy! (I guess I need to get used to the idea that he's not a baby anymore...and that he's growing up. Ha!)
*Thank you for my healthy family.
*Thank you for wonderful family and friends.

I could go on and on, but seriously Thanksgiving was such a wonderful time. We were able to spend time with both sides of the family this year. It was great getting to see one another.

Andy turns 2!!!


Happy Birthday to my Andy...this was actually Nov. 17 (check out that long hair!)

Andy found my yoga mat in my closet. He played cars and trucks on the mat for a LONG time. The next pic is the train table Billy and I got him for his birthday.

Here Andy is blowing out his candles, while we were singing to him at home.
Andy's Train birthday party on LSU's campus. (LSU vs. Ole Miss)

I thought this picture was funny. The icing on this cupcake was the only thing Andy ate besides a sausage biscuit he had for breakfast. Mom said he sure made up for it once he got home...he enjoyed several helpings of daddy's yummy cooking!


Checking out the bees with Mrs. Valerie and Aaron. The next pic is the tricycle that PawPaw and MawMaw gave Andy for his birthday.




Well this post is long over due considering Andy's birthday was November 17! HA!!! But here are some pictures of Andy's big day and his big "Toot Toot" birthday party! Andy had a wonderful day and had a blast playing with all his friends and family on LSU's campus for his party. It was so good to get together with everyone and catch up...thank you Lord for awesome weather too!!! Billy made a mean jambalaya and big pot of white beans...oh so good!

LSU beats Bama!!!


Here Andy is playing one of his favorite games...Peek-a-boo!


Billy and Big Momma...almost 18 weeks pregnant.


Playing, playing, playing!!!



What a game!!! Billy and I just couldn't get over the Tiger's big win this past weekend. Saturday's game was by far one of the best games the Tiger's have played this season and we were there to witness the great effort played by the Tigers. We headed to campus bright and early Saturday morning and enjoyed great fellowship with family and friends!

Trick or Treat


Eating one of many suckers at Trunk or Treat!

Here Andy is digging in the sand. He's searching for sea creatures.


Daddy and Super Man at Trunk or Treat.


Enjoying his very first 3 Musketeers once we returned home Saturday night!




This Halloween, Andy dressed up as Super Man! He was by far the cutest little Super Man ever... We had a blast Wednesday night (Oct. 27) at our church's Trunk or Treat. Andy enjoyed playing games, eating 2 hot dogs and chips, and plenty of suckers!!! We then took him to a near-by neighborhood to do some trick or treating Saturday night. He enjoyed the outing, but I think Momma enjoyed the candy a whole lot more then Andy!!! I guess being preggo, I wanted some yummy candy...Poor Andy-his candy bag was quite picked over within just a few days!!!

Pumpkin Time


Painting our pumpkin.

Cleaning out the pumpkin.

Being sweet to the pumpkin...giving Jack a hug.

Now Andy's being silly with Jack and sitting on him! Ouch!

Our toasted pumpkin seeds!

Showing me just how yummy the seeds were!


This year, Andy and I decided to paint our pumpkin, Jack before we carved him up! Andy absolutely loves to paint so getting to paint a big orange pumpkin was oh so much fun! Once the paint dried, we scooped and cleaned out our pumpkin. Daddy was real impressed with Mommy's carving skills when he came home from work and saw our finished product. HA!!! This year, we also toasted some of the pumpkin seeds. Andy was so disappointed when he ate the last one and realized there were no more. He really enjoyed hearing himself "crunch crunch" as he ate the seeds. Andy and Mommy had a great time together!

Pumpkin Patch



Playing in the old truck.




Ok...so I don't think Andy wanted to see how tall he had grown from last year. He was upset because we had just left playing in the corn kernels.


Andy LOVED playing in the corn kernels...he was very disappointed when we had to leave.


Playing in the cotton.

Andy and Daddy!

Two weekends ago, we headed to the Pumpkin Patch. What a great time...well we did once our little guy woke up. Andy had fallen asleep on the way to the pumpkin patch (because we kind of got lost! HA!). It took Andy a little while to "wake up" but once he did, he had a good time. He hated to leave. His favorite things were playing in the cotton, corn kernels, and in this old red truck. We thought he'd love going for a pony ride but he just watched as they rode by...maybe next year!
