Saturday mornings in the fall....

Starting at 8:00 AM on Saturdays, this is the position that the boys take in the recliner. They watch Game Day on ESPN-U from 8-9, and then Game Day on ESPN from 9-11. Then football games are on ALL DAY LONG! Oh, how we love football around here! Anniston will normally be sitting with the boys, but she was busy doing art this morning! :)

Never a dull moment....

There is never a dull moment with this little boy. Jerry told the kiddos to go get their jammies on. Well, apparently Treyson followed Anniston upstairs and decided to put some of her jammies on. Here's the kicker....he also put some of her panties on. He thought he was HILARIOUS! We might have gotten a kick out of it too ;)For the record, he did not stay in these jammies OR panties! HA!

Trick or Treating at Dadoo's office

We met Dadoo at his office on Friday before Halloween to go trick or treating around the cubicles.We had SCARY SPIDERMAN
and a PRINCESS SPIDER WITCH, who kills mean spiders!

Love this pic!

Twice the fun!

I went over to Bartlesville to love on these two adorable nephews of mine. They were 4 weeks old when I went. They are so precious, and I can't wait to see them next weekend! They're going to stay with us for the next 2 weekends for the Razorback football games.Calvin and Caleb were so sweet while I was there. They slept 5 hours through the night, took their bottles, and slept another 5 hours! It is amazing how they try to find each other when they're not right next to one another. Even when they're swaddled, they wiggle towards each other--so sweet!
Courtney with her sweet boys....doesn't she look amazing? She is such a GREAT MOMMY!
I love you all, and can't wait to see you next week! Uncle Jerry and your cousins Treyson and Anniston are SO EXCITED to meet you too!

Happy Fall Y'all!

We've got all of our pumpkins out, and it's looking and feeling like fall around here! Treyson is quite the little character. He still LOVES anything to do with balls, especially football. He always wants to go outside first thing in the morning to play football....poor thing still hasn't quite grasped the concept of "dew".

He definitely gives his sister a run for her money. A couple of weeks ago, Anniston found a bug inside. She decided to save the little bug and take it outside. Treyson and I watched her pick it up, and we opened the door for her. She put the bug down and said, "Go find all of your friends now" in a sweet little voice. She stood up and stepped back, and Treyson stepped forward and stomped the poor thing. SHE. WAS. HORRIFIED! She put her hands on her hips and said, "Treyson, you have got to be kidding me?!" and stomped off inside.

.....I have a feeling that won't be the last time he purposely ruins her plans!
This sweet girl warms our hearts daily. She is such a sweet, loving, kind hearted little girl. She always wants to please. She has not ever had a "stick pulled" at Pre-K. However, I ask her each Friday if she got any sticks pulled that week. Yesterday, she said, "No sticks pulled again, as always."

Jerry's grandmother is in the hospital. She was in ICU for about 4 days, then into a regular room, and now she's in a rehab facility. Jerry and I went to go visit her, but did not take the kids (don't really want to take the kids into a hospital--unless it's the labor and delivery ward--for fear of Staph infection). So, I told the kids that she was very sick and if they want to make her a card we would take it to her to help cheer her up. Anniston sat there in the car and immediately bowed her head and folded her hands and said, "Dear God, please heal Great Grandma R. Amen. Mommy, did you know that I can pray any time I want? I don't have to wait until we say nighttime prayers."

.....oh how I love her so much!

Preschool Sock Hop

Anniston had her Pre-K sock hop. She was so excited to dress up in her poodle skirt, shirt, and bow!
Dancing with Bubby....I think she was trying to pick him up here!
Having fun with her friends!
What's a dance without a train?
And Ms. Rhonda....she has been a blessing for us and Anniston! Love her!

Our evening routine...

On days that Mommy works, we get home around 5:30 and the kids immediately want to go outside and play. Mommy usually starts dinner, and then goes outside to play football or baseball with the kids. Then after dinner, Dadoo and Mommy play baseball with the kids. We are LOVING this weather, and will be so sad when we can't go outside each evening to play. The kids have gotten really good at hitting the ball, and are figuring out all of the rules.

Here's a short clip of the kids hitting one evening last week!


I think both of the kiddos might enjoy playing baseball and softball!
