The days before Christmas...

Adam and Anna brought over some Christmas gifts for our little family! They got Ford a cute little puffy vest which he loved. And baby no. 2 got a sweet little blanket and soft onesie! They are so sweet and precious to us! Ford also loves them and playing with them.

Last week we went to lunch with Riley, her mom, and her grandma! We went to our usual spot...Puffy Muffin. It of course was so good, but very crowded. We let Ford and Riley play afterward outside. They were so cute together!

Ford exchanged gifts with Nolen and Ella Tate 2 days before Christmas too. We went to eat at Bread and Co for breakfeast. The kids had a blast!

The day before Christmas Eve, Ford got his second haircut. Above is the before picture. We went to Divas and Dudes in Cool Springs. Ford did not like getting his haircut this time. He did so well with his first haircut, but this one was pretty bad. But it turned out to be pretty cute suprisingly!getting off to a rough start

Pictures with Santa

A couple of weeks ago, we went to see Santa at Green Hills Mall! We ate at Pancake Pantry before, which was yummy as alway. The fun story from that is when I asked for a booster seat to sit in the booth, and the lady brought us a sugar box. I in turn said no thanks that won't work....then she stated..." Well we've been using it for 40 years and it has worked!" My bad lady, so we ended up it on the floor so she would give it up! Our friends, the Guthrie's and Alsup's minus the dads, went with us. It was a great time! Ella Tate was the only one who was a little unsure of Santa. But all in all it was a great time!

It's the most wonderful time of the year....

Well, I guess it took me long enough to post pictures from Thanksgiving! We ate at 3 places this year on Thanksgiving Day. Needless to say, it was a very busy day. But we had a wonderful day together!Ford and his cousin SydneyFord, Nan Nan, and B-daddyWith Noni and Papa

He loves his Ellie!

Last Saturday, Dec. 5th, we went to Emily Reeves and Sam Carbine's wedding. It was a pretty day to get married, plus it was a special place, because Gabe and I got married at Whiteman Chapel almost 2 years ago!After the wedding we had some friends over to our house to watch the SEC championship game! We ate some Jet's pizza and have yummy desserts. The children had lots of fun playing together!Here is a group shot from the ornament swap at Courtney's beautiful house! We had a great time eating and stealing ornaments! Thanks for having us over Courtney:)

Life over the past month...

Ford got his first haircut on Halloween day. I forgot to blog about it, but his rat tail is officially gone:( He looks more liek a big boy, and Miss Allison did and wonderful job! He did very well while getting it cut, and especially enjoyed the clippers shaving the little hairs on his neck....I guess the vibration felt good to him!no more rat tail!

Ford also had his 15 month check up this month. He did so well, even after getting 4 shots! Here are his stats:

25 lbs. 13 oz. (70%)

31 3/4" in length (70%)

19 "head circumference (80%)

Here are a few pics of Ford wearing his new Titans jersey and playing in the leaves! He loves being outside:)

Also, Ford had a cousin born on November 16th. His name is Noah Hyten! Congrats to his parents Keylee and Tyler. He is a precious little boy!

One of my besties and her hubby just built a house. Congrats to Sam and David on their first home! They are so excited!
