I knew....

I have known Nathan was little for his age (especially when I compare him to Logan at the same age), but I didn't realize how much! On Saturday a couple came and picked up a fish tank that we had sold and she had a tiny baby in a car seat. When I asked how old he was, she said 3 weeks old. I was amazed at how tiny he was. When I asked how much he weighed she said at his last dr. appt. he was 11 lbs. 5 oz. Yeah, Nathan just hit 11 lbs. 4 oz. That's o.k. I'll take having a tiny baby this time! He'll be a chunk in no time I'm sure!

Thumb Sucker

Upset with himself for pulling his thumb out...silly boy!

My Boys

Silly Boy

Logan decided to crawl up on the table while I was making dinner and play with his train. It was so sweet, but he decided into turning it into a photo session when I took a picture!

Juice Please

Logan calls everything that he drinks out of the fridge, juice. Don't know why, but he does. He came downstairs while I was feeding Nathan and said Juice Please and handed me his cup. I told him he needed to wait and I would get it in a minute. Here is what happened a few minutes later.....

He comes walking down the stairs and hands me the milk! After I filled his cup, he walked back upstairs and put it away!

Dora Memory

Logan loves to play memory, even if it just him he could sit there for the longest time!

This is Boots the Monkey, Nathan is going to be him for Halloween! "Oh Man" This is Swiper the Fox, Logan's Halloween Costume!

Baby Scrunch

I love how babies scrunch themselves up into a little ball!

Fat Man's Squeeze

When I was little my Dad and I would always take walks to the back of our property. There was a specific tree that would always be the joke that my Dad wouldn't be able to fit through it and would pretend to get stuck and I would have to push him through it. This tree became known as Fat Man's Squeeze, because he would have to squeeze through it.

Well, the tradition continues on. These pictures are old, but I just got them on my computer from my mom. Dad took Logie back there and the tradition has started all over again, Nathan will have to be next. These brought back awesome memories that I am glad my boys will be able to take part in!

2 month pics - 9/5/08

It amazes me how fast this little boy is growing! It is hard to believe as I am working on Nate's scrapbook how far he has come in two short months. 2 days after he turned 2 months we had a doctor's visit. He was 11 lbs. 4 oz and 21 1/2 inches long! Even though he is considered small for his age we are amazed at how big he is already!

Adorable.....

I love this picture....

Wilson Family Visit - 9/6/08

Tim's family came down a few weeks ago to visit for a wedding we had. This was their first chance to see Nathan.

Aunt Beth - We are so excited her and Sean are moving back in a few weeks!

It is hard to get Logan to look for more than 1 second when he says Cheese!

Well Said....

Paul Harvey and Prayer Paul Harvey says:

I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not going to sue somebody for singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in December. I don't agree with Darwin, but I didn't go out and hire a lawyer when my high school teacher taught his Theory of Evolution. Life, liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be endangered because someone says a 30-second prayer before a football game.

So what's the big deal? It's not like somebody is up there reading the entire Book of Acts. They're just talking to a God they believe in and asking him to grant safety to the players on the field and the fans going home from the game.

But it's a Christian prayer, some will argue. Yes, and this is the United States of America, a country founded on Christian principles. According to our very own phone book, C hristian churches outnumber all others better than 200-to-1. So what would you expect -- somebody chanting? If I went to a football game in Jerusalem, I woul d expect to hear a Jewish prayer. If I went to a soccer game in Baghdad, I would expect to hear a Muslim prayer. If I went to a ping pong match in China, I would expect to hear someone pray to Buddha. &n bsp; And I wouldn't be off ended. It wouldn't bother me one bit.

But what about the atheists? Is another argument. What about them? Nobody is asking them to be baptized. We're not going to pass the collection plate. Just humor us for 30 seconds. If that's asking too much, bring a Walkman or a pair of ear plugs. Go to the bathroom. Visit the concession stand. Call your lawyer! Unfortunately, one or two will make that call. One or two will tell thousands what they can and cannot do.

I don't think a short prayer at a football game is going to shake the world's foundations. Christians are just sick and tired of turning the other cheek while our courts strip us of all our rights. Our parents and grandparents taught us to pray before eating, to pray before we go to sleep.

Our Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. Now a handful of people and their lawyers are telling us to cease praying. God, help us. And if that last sentence offends you, well, just sue me. The silent majority has been silent too long. It's time we tell that one or two who scream loud enough to be heard that the vast majority doesn't care what they want.

It is time that the majority rules! It's time we tell them, You don' t have to pray; you don't have to say the Pledge of Allegiance; you don't have to believe in God or attend services that honor Him. That is your right, and we will honor your right; but by golly, you are no longer going to take our rights away. We are fighting back, and we WILL WIN!

God bless us one and all ... especially those who denounce Him , God bless America, despite all her faults. She is still the greatest nation of all. God bless our service men who are fighting to protect our right to pray and worship God.

Labor Day Parade

It was so hot on Monday! Even still Logan had a great time at the parade!

We made a new parking spot

Such a cool float! The little cranes dropped candy off to the kids! These boys were so nice helping Logan get candy and sharing with him.
Yummy...sucker!

Labor Day Fun

Sunday night we went to the park with Troy, Mindy, Brayden, and Tyler. The boys had a wonderful time, and the adults had a pretty good time as well!

This slide was the coolest! It had bars that would spin and your bootie got a good shakin as you went down! Even the adults had their fair share of turns on it.

In one side, and out the other...

Tyler was fascinated behind bars....these were actually bars that when you moved them back and forth they were like a musical instrument.

Mommy and Logan coming down the slide.

After the park we went to Dairy Queen! Can you see how dirty Logan's face is? Nathan had the comfiest seat in the house.
Yummy....Logie finished all of his ice cream!
