BABY TEETH

Soooo Aaron has been driving me crazy. He wakes up about twice a night. Not just moving around awake, like crying awake. I go and try to comfort him. He falls back asleep in my arms and then I put him in his crib and BAM! He starts crying again. So what does a tired mom do. I put him in bed with me and he falls fast asleep. CRAZY! I really don't want a baby in bed with me. I never sleep and I don't want it to continue. What do I do???

Oh and Aaron is 8 months and he hasn't shown any signs of teeth. I decided to feel his gums. Yep. His first tooth is coming up. Could this be the reason for the clingy baby? Any suggestion on what to do?

I can't belive he is 8 months old. Some things he has been doing lately.

- he crawls on all fours
- pulls up on EVERYTHING
- says "dada" and "mama"
- blows raspberries
- gets shy and hides his face
- laughs at animals and other babies
- makes sound like an indian "AWAWAWAW" when you put your hand over his mouth

Christmas Pics

















Like every year we went to Liberty, Ms for Christmas day. Everything was like normal. We ate, had Pirates gift exchange, talked. What was different was the ride home. My brother Kyle calls it "A Christmas Miracle" (if you watch the office you will get that). My dad was driving us all home. Everything was going great, then BAMMMM. What the heck?!?! A turkey flew into our van! yes flew right into the side of the van. It was so freaky. I thought we hit a huge truck. that is how loud it was. Well we couldn't just keep going. we had to turn around and see the turkey. Then of course we had to take pictures. While we were taking pictures some guys in a truck with a trailer hooked on the back with four wheelers. (it looked like they had just been hunting)Pull over and were admiring our turkey. Then the man asked, "can we take that turkey off your hands?" His son was holding the turkey, wide-eyed and mouth open. The turkey was huge!!!! Of course we gave it to them. It was "A Christmas Miracle". Fun times in Mississippi



Disney World

Aaron is such a ham for the camera
Daddy and son watching the parade

We stood in line for an hour to get this picture...and my eyes are closed!!!


Aaron loved the characters. He was grabbing their noses and laughing at them. He was sooo cute.

So I just went to Disney World for the first time!! I was so excited to go. Thanks to my inlaws for giving us such a great christmas present. I had tons of fun. I can't wait to take Aaron there when he gets older. It was a little hard with a nursing baby, but I made it work. I had a lot of help with me.
