A CHRISTMAS TREE & A SICK BABY

CHRISPY & I HAD MOM & DAD OVER FOR DINNER ON TUESDAY NIGHT. I COOKED DINNER, SWISS STEAKS, RICE, GREEN BEANS & SALAD WITH SWEET TEA. THEN WE WENT ON TO PUT UP THE TREE.

CHRISPY THOUGHT IT WAS FUN TO PLAY HIDE & SEEK AND I JOINED IN. BY THE TIME I HAD FLUFFED ALL OF THE BRANCHES AND WE WERE READY TO PUT THE LIGHTS ON WE REALIZED THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY! SO WE HAD TO POSPONE THE TREE DECORATING UNTIL THE NEXT NIGHT AFTER CHURCH.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THE TREE DECORATING WENT MUCH BETTER. I'M SURE NEXT YEAR IT WILL BE A LOT HARDER WITH CALEB WANTING TO HELP. CHRISPY AND I ENJOYED PUTTING IT UP LATE AT NIGHT & THEN HAVING IT LIKE A SURPRISE THE NEXT MORNING. KIND OF LIKE SURPRISE WE HAVE A TREE NOW!

CHRISPY WOULD HAND ME THE DECORATIONS & I WOULD PUT THEM ON THE TREE. NO MISTLETOE BUT A KISS TO CELEBRATE A FUN NIGHT.
OOPS! I ACCIDENTLY PLUGED THIS PICTURE IN THE WRONG PLACE. THIS IS STEVIE POWELL FORM CHURCH. THEY ARE 20 DAYS APART & SHE CAN TURN OVER, SIT UP & STAND UP ON ALL FOURS. VERY TALENTED. WE THOUGHT CALEB SHOULD PUT HIS NAME ON HER DANCE CARD FOR SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE!
BACK TO THE TREE... THE HOLIDAY SEASON IS HERE AND WE ARE ENJOING CELEBRATING FAMILY TOGETHER.

LAST SUNDAY - AUBREY'S SNAGLE TOOTH SMILE CRACKS ME UP. SINCE THEN SHE HAS PULLED ONE MORE. I CAN'T BELIEVE WE ARE GETTING THAT OLD! SWEET GIRL.

LAST SATURDAY - AMY BABYSAT SO CHRISPY & I COULD GO TO THE MOVIES AND SEE 3:10 TO YUMA. AWESOME COWBOY MOVIE. I LIKED IT. RUSSELL CROWE ROCKS!

THIS PICTURE STARTS THE SICK BABY STORY - MY POOR BABY IS SICK. HE STARTED OFF NOT FEELING GOOD & THEN BOOM! HE'S SICK. HERE HE'S TAKING A NAP WITH HIS MAMA. MY SWEET BOY.

WAKING UP FROM A NAP, LOOK AT THE SWEETBOY'S ARMS. "PANTHER POSITION". HE LOOKS SO SWEET IN HIS LITTLE JEANS. HERE'S THAT PICTURE OF LAST SUNDAY: CALEB & STEVIE.
MY LITTLE CHANCHO ENJOYS BEING NAKED. TOUCH THOSE TOES!
DROOLING ON A TOY IS A GREAT PASSTIME AS WELL.
HE ALREADY HAD A GLASED LOOK IN HIS EYES.

THURSDAY - GRANDMOMMY, CALEB & I SPENT THE DAY TOGETHER ON THURSDAY. I, THE MOM, AM GETTING SICK TOO. SO WE SPENT THE DAY LETTING MOM TAKE CARE OF US. YUMM! LOOK AT ME EAT MY CEREAL & PEARS.
GRANDMOMMY DEBBIE SENT CALEB AN ELMOR FUD HAT. IT MATCHES PERFECT WITH HIS ROOM, HIS HEADS JUST A LITTLE TOO BIG FOR THE HAT!
FRIDAY - IS WHEN MY BABY WAS REALLY SICK. GLASSY EYES, PITIFUL COUGH, FEVER. IT BROKE MY HEART. WE HAD TO SLEEP IN THE CHAIR 1/2 NIGHT SO HE COULD BREATHE.
THE NURSE SAID IT'S CROUP AND TO KEEP A HUMIDIFIER GOING & KEEP HIM HIDRATED. MY POOR BABY LOOK AT THAT FACE.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN TELL BUT MAMA WAS JUST AS SICK AT THE BABY. WE WERE KEEPING EACH OTHER COMPANY. BEING MISSERABLE. DADDY HAD TO LEAVE US SATURDAY MORNING TO TAKE A PRACTICE EXCET TEST FOR HIS TEACHING CERTIFICATE. HIS BEAUTIFUL RED VELOURE SUIT KEPT HIM WARM ALL DAY. WE DID NOTHING ALL DAY EXCEPT HANG OUT WITH G'MOMMY VICKY.
SUNDAY AM - TODAY WAS BABY DEDICATION AT CHURCH AND WE MISSED IT. CALEB STILL HAS A FEVER AND A PITIFUL COUGH. SOO.... WE WENT SWIMMING IN BATH TUB.
HE LIKES TO PUT WATER IN THE CUP AND PLAY WITH THE RUBBER DUCKIE.
HE'S VERY ACTIVE IN THE TUB AND KICKS & SPLASHES THE WHOLE TIME.
CALEB SAT IN HIS BOUNCY SEAT WITH DADDY WATCHING HIM. HE'S HAS HIS GOOD MOMENTS BUT YOU CAN TELL HE JUST DOESN'T FEEL GOOD. HE LOVES TO WATCH THE LIGHTS ON THE TREE. NEXT YEAR WE'LL BE FIGHTING OVER TOUCHING THE TREE. THIS YEAR HE JUST SITS & LOOKS.
HE'S GETTING BETTER, BUT STILL RUNNING A LOW FEVER. WHO KNEW THAT IT WOULD BE SO HARD TO HAVE A SICK BABY?
HERE WE ARE SITTING TOGETHER WITH JILLY & CALEB ON SUNDAY DURING THE BABY DEDICATION TIME.
MY LITTLE FAMILY.
JUST A LITTLE GLIMPS INTO CALEB'S BATH TIME.

JUST A LITTLE SHOUT OUT TO MY 3 PREGO SISTERS: CINDY (DUE IN DEC.), CHRISTY (JULY 10TH), & ANNIE (JUNE). I LOVE YOU GUYS AND I PRAY FOR YOU EVERYDAY. I REALLY AM EXCITED TO HAVE MORE FRIENDS FOR CALEB. I PRAY THAT OUR LORD BLANKETS YOU WITH HIS COMFORT, PEACE & LOVE DURING YOUR PREGO MONTHS.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

FYI. MY 7TH GRADE B-BALL TEAM WAS IN A TOURNEY THIS WEEKEND AND WE WON 2 OUT OF 3 GAMES. THEY WERE AWESOME! THE LAST GAME THEY WON IN OVER TIME! HOW COOL IS THAT! I'LL PUT A PICTURE OF THEM UP SOON. IT SURE WAS HARD COACHING WITH OUT A VOICE & WITH WATERY EYES. BUT A GIRL'S GOTTA DO WHAT A GIRL'S GOTTA DO.
