My Audrey

This child has the most fantastic imagination. She is bright and cheerful, just the biggest pleasure.

The thing on her head is a rhinestone that she is supposed to dress her pony's head with, not her own.

I love this kid! She is the best thing that happen to me. She saved me! Thank you God.

What would we do without eachother?!

I have the sweetest children on earth. Every morning Travis wakes up and says I love you sissy. Or he will tell her she is the greatest sissy ever.

One Friday morning I told Audrey she wasn't going to ballet that day. Travis was still asleep, and she woke him and said "Bubby did you hear that! I'm not going to ballet today. Isn't that great, we get to spend the whole day together."

Sleepy Bubby told her "That is the best thing sissy, I ub you."

How wonderful are they!? I have it made because of them. They are so perfect.

This is really how they sleep! I love it. It is the greatest thing to wake up to every morning.

Apartment Baseball

After a long day at the pool, the kids and I were waiting for Daddy to come over and watch a movie.

Travis likes to stand at the window and wait for Derik. While doing so, he noticed a baseball game going on at the playground.

I suggested we sit on the patio and watch the game.

The kids loved it.

Here comes Daddy. He was such a good sport considering how sick he was.

They were cheering for both sides. It was so cute!


Getting a little nervous....... not sure what is going to happen.

HOME RUN! (I really don't know if it was, but you would think so.)

The moment I first saw Travis, I said to Derik that he was going to be a baseball star. The kid can hit a ball.

Derik had them at Joey's and he hit it over the fence.

We were at my parents' and Travis hit it across the street and up someone's drive way.

Audrey has many talents. But I think Travis will have one- and he is damn good at. Just like his mommy said he would be! Gotta love my perfect little boy.

What a day!

I babysat for Mrs. Holly yesterday (Trav's teacher), and BOY was it crazy.

I realized 2 things:

1. Travis needs to play with more boys.

2. I need to help out more of my friends that have more than 2 kids.

Oh my gosh! I thought that if I have more children, I wanted another boy. It is so loud. Travis is loud, then add 2 more little boys- my house is not big enough.

I had fun, because little boys are more lovable with woman- Will was really sweet, especially after he hit his head.

Aud, Trav, Will and Ben

I took the Christmas tree down and let the kids play in all the needles.

For once Travis wasn't the only boy.

The only trouble I had was keeping Audrey from trying to smooch with Ben.

Don't worry Holly- it was Audrey not Ben. They did agree that they loved eachother.

Mrs. Wendee is the best

Mrs. Wendee gives the best gifts.

Trav got a Shrek watch and a really cool place mat for when we go out to eat.

This is the Pony shirt Haley got for Aud. She was really excited. The bracelet Aud has on says BEST FRIENDS. Haley bought it at the school store for Christmas.

You can barely see to the left the REALLY awesome outfit Mrs. Wendee made for Audrey.

She will be wearing it to church on Sunday, so I will take a picture.

And here's the best friends hugging. Yes they are both in their PJ's. Haley had pajama day at school and Aud and I were just lazy!

You should hear Travis say pajamas. It is the cutest.

Cowgirl Elf

Ever seen a Cowgirl Elf?

Well here's one!

Here are a few pics of my girl just being adorable.

Bubby has been asleep for hours, so she has had so much fun.

Giving Little Man a bath????

After Daddy's party the kids gave little man a bath. This is the best picture I got. You can only imagine the how hard it is to bathe that little rascal.

Dress up the Scarecrow?

Sissy was playing dress up and I decided that she looked so pretty I had to take her picture. Travis got so excited and wanted to join in- grabbing the closest thing to him- sissy fairy wings. This does not mean he will grow up and be a fairy- Daddy!

Anyways, showing his boyness, he grabbed his friend the scarecrow to join. Somehow the scarecrow has ended up inside (instead of at his original home- the front porch), and has taken up in our living room. Travis insist- pick your battles- right??

Not sure what this look is from Trav?

They decided that Mr. Scarecrow needed something to dress up in!

Ice Princess

Ok, I know a lot of you watched the Disney Ice Princess movie that was on like 5000 times.

This is probably the 4998 time we watched it- but each time Audrey was adorable.

Here she has on the Ballet outfit Aunt Steph bought and her ballet shoes, and we all know how ballet shoes can magically become the worlds fastest ice skates in about 2 seconds.

Audrey is obsessed with ice skating- her cousin Skylar is an ice skater so she has gotten to see Sky do her magic. And what little girl hasn't dreamed of being an Olympic ice skater?

Looking at the pictures makes we realize how little she still is, and I love every moment of it!

Rare Sight!

Well that time of year has approached us- ASTHMA season! Thank God he has grown out of the RSV age! 2 years in a row was been really tough.

Anyways, Trav has been pretty miserable lately. After a long day of hunting hogs (not really just army crawling on the living room floor and hiding under the coffee table), Trav was wearing down. We can always tell when Trav's asthma is the worse- because he wears down early in the evening.

Mama was trying to hurry and make dinner for her sweet little boy.

Hurry mom- I'm getting tired.

I just did not quite make it Mama. I'm sure it was good!

Audrey in her cute new hunting hat. Derik got really lucky- his girl loves to be with him- even if it is dirty boy stuff.

Zero

These pics will give you a little taste of what our Zero is like!

He is such a mess.

I think he was still hungry!

It's cold in here!

I was getting the kids ready for bed, and had few little chores to do in the mean time.

I cam out of my room and this is how Audrey was set up on the couch. I asked her what was going on and she told me "It's so cold in here."

Poor baby!

I had already gotten on to them about dragging all the blankets out for a "tent " (thanks Mam Maw!), that she didn't want to get in any more trouble.

Zero came to keep her company.

For those of you that do not know our Gilley ran away. We are devastated! (Especially me, Derik gave me that dog on my 21st birthday, after the death of my Tinky.) We all miss him so much. I miss his little yap when he wanted my attention. I miss getting onto him. I miss seeing his poor little face when Audrey would stuff him in a stroller and drag him around. Our guy friends say that they wouldn't want to live here either if they were stuffed in strollers and dog beds all day.

So RoRo has been consoling all of us. Unfortunately RoRo thinks he is the size of Gilley!

We just pray that he is bringing joy to an old lady. The thought of some other kids enjoying him really gets me. Gilley would be perfect for some old lady. I am almost certain that someone took him. When I go walking a can hear him barking. No one has responded to our posters.

Day with Brittany

The kids spent the day with Britt so we could work on the Walk stuff. Daddy worked his booty off with Mr. Mike (Trav loves to say "where's Mike?- too cute to here him).

They had a blast, of course- it is Britt!

Travis was in a loving mood, and was telling Britt kissy kissy.

Mom you are are not the only one that has had Trav, and him get damaged.

Poor Britt, but I know Travis- it is not possible to keep the kids out of trouble.

She said he didn't even cry- Travis always cries on the stuff that doesn't leave bad marks.

(I know Julie is having flash backs).

Travis was riding that darn scooter. He goes so fast on it, and I guess his brakes were broke- he ran into the kitchen table. Scared the heck out of Brittany.

Travis putting the moves on Britt. Watch out guys- he can get any girl he wants!

I did not ask questions, but I guess he wanted to be one of the girls.

Joe Cool! Notice the shirt- classic! Perfect for today- "I do my own stunts" Too true for Travis!

My movie star! Her hair is like that because Britt braided it for her, and Aud took it down.

Britt said Trav would not stop kissing her.

When Derik and I walked in Travis was sitting just like this. I asked him if he was in time out. He crossed his arms and said no. Brittany got onto him about something, and he was so upset with himself. He never wants Brittany mad at him! It was too cute.

The kids taking pics of themselves with Britt's camera. Derik told her she must really hate her camera, to let Travis touch it.
