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!

Halloween 2009!

Halloween this year was much more fun for Ford! He liked dressing up as a pumpkin and seeing all the other kids come and trick or treat. We did not take him out since it was so cold. We had chili at Nan Nan and B-daddy's along with alot of family and friends. It was a great night!

Mommy brunch

So, last year Courtney started us a tradition and hosted a new mommies brunch. We thought it would be fun to do each year with the same group who had babies within months apart. So we had the 2nd annual brunch last wednesday at my house. We had yummy food while the babies all played together! It was fun to sit around with all the other moms and share stories and just watch the babies play! I look forward to next year:)

Trunk or Treat!

Last saturday night, we had Trunk or Treat at church. It was our first year to go. Ford dressed up as a pumpkin. It was alot of fun. We also got to have Bonner and Hayden go with us. They had a great time too. Ford was more interested in throwing his candy out of his bag than anything. All in all it was a great night, and all the children looked so cute in their costumes!

Walden Farm

Last Tuesday, Ford, Gabe, and I went to Walden farm. The Guthries where there with there boys, and Laura and Ella Tate, and Hannah! We had a wonderful time. It was my first time to go the the farm, and I had no idea how huge it was and how much there is to do. We looked at all the animals, did the corn maze, a hay ride, and took lots and lots of pictures! Here are some for you to enjoy. It was a beautiful day, and we are especially glad daddy got to come with us!my two boyssporting his outfit mommy madesweet nolenhitting the goat!three amigoscute little Ella Tate
