Lately ...

Here are a few of the things we've been up to lately (minus the stomach bug mom had this past Sunday-thank you, Lord for being at Bebe and pop's)! You are a life saver, Bebe!

FBC Fall Fest

Here We GO!!!

I just had to post this real quick before Truett decides to take off! This is his first real time with full reign on the floor in the den. Not only are we finally getting our FIRST TWO TEETH on the bottom, but we've decided to scoot over to the exersaucer and teeth on it! Ready or not, here we go!!

Mid-Term Time

I never really thought I would ever go back to school, but I've enjoyed A&P doing ok for a stay-at-home mom with a temporary part time job. (little side note: I am officially the part-time interim youth director for our church. CRAZY but so EXCITING!!!) I had my mid-term last Wednesday morning in Kosciusko. So, my sweet husband got his mom to come stay with us Tuesday night to keep Truett while I was gone. What a blessing it was to have here and not have to worry about coordinating someone to keep him on top of everything else!
Thanks so much, Bebe for all your help!! Truett absolutely loved having her here!
Of course, my Carson girls came to the rescue too! Kayla came and got Tru Monday afternoon so I could have almost a whole day of studying! Thanks, sweet girls!

Truett and his Kayla ... can you tell he loves her!?

Just In Time

We are finally about to get one of our biggest projects started and hopefully over with! THE BACK PORCH!!! Just in time for this cool weather, we'll be able to sit out and enjoy in a few weeks! Ryan demoed the addition in about 2 hours last weekend while Truett and I watched ... Truett enjoying his new swing from Pops!
It's amazing how something such as a room can come down so easily. BUT when it looks like junk, it kind of makes sense! After getting down to the frame, boy are we glad we're doing this even more! Talk about gross! The wood ants have had a hay day out there!

don't you love the barn in the back yard ... lovely

thank you, Lord for a happy little man!

NOT a passy man but loves chewing on the thing and it's just too cute

Hello wood ants and waterlogged wood

We love our Cousins

Last week was a fun week of seeing cousins! Since we are going to be a little busier over the next few months, we wanted to make a few quick trips to visit! Sydney was cheering in Winona on Tuesday afternoon. So, Truett and I went to check it out. Despite the poor rain that never stopped for two weeks, we only got to stay for 30 minutes before the bottom fell out. We did see Landon too but he was too busy playing with friends to get a picture. Sydney is so grown up! I can't believe she's a cheerleader!! She loves it!
Thursday was Madelynn's actually birthday party. So, Truett and I went to celebrate and spend the night with the Sassers! Madelynn was so excited to have baby Tru at her party and to take over her room for the night. Thanks, Madelynn!!

We love our Burnham cousins!!!

Welcome to the world Baby Gage!

Born September 28, 2009

4:34 p.m.

6 lbs. 5 oz.

19 3/4 in.

This morning Truett and I made a quick trip to Jackson to meet Baby Gage! It was so fun and I was so excited. He's tiny ... so sweet! I even got to change his diaper. I didn't even change Truett's diaper in the hospital. Angie was doing great and her same ole self ... dying to get her IV out. I sure hope they finally granted that wish after I left.

What a blessing that Baby Gage is here and mom and baby are doing great!
