All Suited Up!


We bought Will a helmet, elbow pads, and knee pads so he could go on bike rides with us and he loves them!! We let him pick out what he wanted, so he picked Tigger. He also enjoys riding on the back of the bike with either Mommy or Daddy! Will loves his new stuff so much that he wants to wear it all the time...he even tried to wear it to bed last night!! We have always said he needs a helmet on at all times...I guess we got our wish! He is such a funny boy!

Enjoying the Weather!!

Haley, Emory Anne, Will and I took advantage of this great weather by spending some time at the zoo yesterday! We had so much fun and are so glad they could join us. Here are some cute pictures from our trip! (The "leash" was not a big hit, but it worked for a little while. I gave in and just let him run free!)

Am I Terrible?....


Ok, so I broke down and bought a "leash!" Pre-toddler, I swore I would never degrade my child or myself and use one of these contraptions. I would talk bad about people that used them and feel so sorry for the child. Well, now that I have a toddler, I take it all back. Will no longer wants to ride in the stroller or the wagon...he only wants to walk. The bad thing about that is he doesn't want to hold my hand or listen to me telling him to stay out of the road or other harms way. He just turns back at me and gives me the look..you know the one...and laughs. So, I had to do it for his safety and my sanity. I am taking him to the zoo tomorrow, so that will be the trial run. That is if I can swallow my pride enough to actually use it in public!! Right now, Will thinks it is pretty cool because he says it's like Aiken's harness that we put on him when we take him for walks....we will see how long that lasts!
On a different note, we are so glad that everything went well this morning with Durham's ears. He had tubes put in this morning and Ariail says he is doing good. We hope that this helps with all his ear troubles! Hugs and kisses to sweet Durham!

I was going through baby pictures last night and came across this one of Will on his first Valentine's Day! He was 7 months old then....I can't believe he will be 3 years old in July!! I could just eat him up!
Hope everyone has a fabulous day!! Hugs and Kisses to all!!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!




Just wanted to send out a huge "Thank you" to Gamma for coming to the rescue this past week!! With my recovery being worse than I thought, your help was life saving!! Will loved getting to spend five whole days with you and show you all his new tricks!! Thank you also to Gampa for letting Gamma come help us for the week. I know you missed her and are glad she is home! I feel so blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life to help me in times like this!

Not only did Gamma help with Will and Daddy, but she also tackled some projects for me. She sewed a beautiful window seat cover and pillow for one of the guest bedrooms. I absolutely love them both and appreciate you doing that for me!! Pat also thanks you for patching some holes in several of his favorite old jeans!


I have to add the Pat turned into "Super Dad" through this whole experience and really stepped up to the plate!! He has been wonderful and Will has loved getting to spend so much time with him, too!! Thank you, for letting me heal so I can be your wife and Will's mommy again!
Throughout this whole surgery and recovery, I have had so much help. Nina has been wonderful too!! Not only did she help a lot with Will, but she also carted me around to doctors appointment and to run errands before I could drive myself. Thanks for all the hugs, kisses and love!!
Hugs and Kisses to all of you!!.......I'm Back!!!!

Durham making himself at home!




Please look at how adorable Durham is all kicked back in the rocking chair! Chris, Ariail and Durham came over for dinner Wednesday night and we all enjoyed their company. Will and Durham had so much fun chasing after eachother. I had the cutest picture of both of them riding on a tractor that wasn't made for riding. Somehow, they both fit themselves on a push tractor that Gamma and Gampa gave Will for Valentine's Day. It was so cute, but silly mommy accidentally erased it before she stored it on the computer. Anyway, I will get it next time! Durham and Will are going to have so much fun growing up together!!

Finally Making Progress...

I would not wish the pain I have been feeling on my worst enemy! Wisdom teeth..no problem! Tonsils...torture!!!! Of all the pain I have felt in my 29 years of life, nothing compares to the pain the removal of my tonsils has brought me. Excruciating would be an understatement! The good news is that I think I am finally making progress. Today, I can actually swallow without crying. It still is very painful, but I can do it. Eating has not been an option..not even ice cream! I can barely drink liquids, so food has been out of the question. Anyway, I am hoping to be getting back to normal in the next few days! I can't even imagine what I would do without my wonderful husband, mother, and mother in law!! They have all gone above and beyond there duties to help me through this time!! I honestly can't wait to get back to my duties...this staying in bed for a week is not for me!!! Thanks again to all my wonderful family and friends for helping me and checking on me!!

Patient Update..

Well, all I can say is "OUCH!!!" I went into this thinking that I was pretty tough and could handle the pain, I mean I did have a baby!! But, this has been a pretty rough recovery. Actually, every day of recovery seems to be more painful than the last. I am still taking pain pills, but they don't last very long. Pat, Nina, Pop Pop and Lori have been so helpful in nursing me and taking care of Will. Also, thank you to Casey, Elisa and Kiki for bringing food for Pat and Will! That was such a big help since I am obviously in no condition to cook! Barbara is coming today to stay for several days, so we are looking forward to her visit. Will can't wait to see his Gamma and play with her for a couple of days! She will be ready for a vacation after all the nursing she has been doing with Gampa and now me! Thanks to everyone for all the calls and all the help!! I will keep you updated on my recovery..it is time to get back in bed!
