Happy Birthday Cannon Ty

First,
I love you to pieces my sweet little man!!!
Second,
I thank the sweet Lord everyday for allowing me to be your mommy!
And, blessing Daddy and I with such an amazingly fun guy!!!

When I went in to be induced with You I would have never dreamed that over 32 hours later we would FINALLY meet our sweetness. I remember the day I found out I was pregnant with you... Early morning during Labor Day weekend... Isn't that fitting! We had just moved to Rector and I was not having the greatest time adjusting to a tiny town with everyone knowing when you walked out our front door! Little to say you really helped me during a difficult time. The pregnancy was great and you were such a handsome little guy weighing at 6 lbs 7 oz!

Over the three years we have been blessed with you I can tell you how happy you make me and how much you make me laugh! Your sweet little leg with the 2 fat rolls hanging in there and your little man love handles that hang over your big boy underwear... Gosh I just want to squeeze you!

Since starting preschool you have become so independent and you talk so well! You know how to turn my " your in trouble face," into a belly laugh and you know I am a sucker when you say, " I hold you momma!" yes, it melts my heart!

I want to freeze this time with you and hold onto it forever because nothing will ever compare to these times! I cherish our little outings alone without brother and sister because I constantly worry about you being the middle child. It breaks my heart sometimes... Seriously! I love how you love church, preschool and praying. Again, I feel so undeserving of you sweet boy!

Right now.... At age 3.... You are loving...
Your sissy
iPad
iPhone
Your bubba
Tam-Tam (Tammy your preschool teacher)
Sonic Happy Hour
Rabbits
The Black Eyed Peas... Boom Boom Pow
Soccer
Cutting with scissors
Helping me cook
Watering the ferns
Blaming everything on KK

You are such a happy child with pure joy that shines through your eyes and I only hope that continues with you throughout life! Mommy loves you Bbbbbiiiigggggggg much and Daddy does too! You know you are daddy's best friend forever and you better not forget that! Love you first CanCan Ty!!

Slow as a Snail

I am secretly hoping this week goes by very slowly ... my Cannon Ty turns 3 on Friday!

I am having a difficult time with this birthday and that it is my baby boy growing up.. I do not like it!

He cracks me up EVERYDAY!!!!

Last week we had quite a few Cannonisms Happenings...

-I was talking to him and literally turned around and put a load of clothes in the washer. Closed the washer and turned around to this






Thankfully I ran over to little Miss and she was Sharpie free!! Not sure if you are supposed to use Magic Erasers on children but I did!

-One afternoon he was determined to have a Diet Coke and I would not let him... Next thing my iPhone is drowning in a lake of DC!!

-Secong part to that is he informed me to put my phone "in wice momma!" yes, my 2 year old told me to place my dripping iPhone in a bag of rice!!!

-He tells me daily... " momma Desus (Jesus) tells CanCan to kick kk in the balls so I do it!" oh my!

-Today while driving in the car he said, " momma, girls fart and day (they) fart loud and stinky!" glad he figured that one out!

He makes me smile and he always makes me laugh!!! I love this child whole hearted and I could not have been blessed with a better little boy! Each morning I can't wait for him to wake up because he is so fun!

Update:
Momma is working... Yes this momma is working two days a week in my dream job! Hold on to your seats ladies... I am teaching preschool two days a week in a faith based education environment! I love it so much! I am so happy and the babies (CE and Cannon Ty) are at the same church! I can not explain how thankful I am that God has opened this door for me and blessed me with this opportunity.

I will leave you with a picture of little Miss that was taken last week after church!

Sweet Home Alabama

Yes, the title is a little over used to me but it really is home to me!
I have never been a resident of the great state of Alabama but I would LOVE to become a resident! Ha!

During Spring Break Chief went to Florida for a tournament the high school boys played in-Florida National Invitation which they won!! Go Hornets! Nationally Ranked in the top 30 high school teams!!

So... Since Chief was going to be gone Saturday through the next Sunday I decided to pack up the kids and drive to Chief's mom house in Alabama!!! We left on Friday around lunch and stayed the entire week which was beyond wonderful!!! The weather was great and our time with Momma K was amazing! We hung out each day with our Leigh Leigh (chiefs cousin and my bff) and her daughter sweet Addie (Cannon Ty's bff)!


KK got to experience Alabama sports and baseball all week and he had the best time ever! I am so happy and beyond words that he shares the same love that Chief and I do for Bama sports!!! Check out KK and Coach Paul Bear Bryant!!'





I guess Chief felt extremely bad for my Spring Break experience mainly because I drove 7 hours one way with 3 kiddos by myself and then returned 7 hours by myself with them (including a teething 7 month old). When I returned home I was surprised by this...



This is a horrible picture but he got me an iPad!!!!!!! I almost fell out... but don't worry you ladies that know I don't like to spend money... He got this for a steal because of a child (baseball player) bought it at the apple store in Orlando and then realized before getting it out of the box he wanted the ipad2 instead! He didn't want to swallow his pride and exchange it so he bought a BRAND new ipad2 30 minutes later and sold this one to Chief for a steal and i mean a steal!!! Hey I am not complaining I love it and so do the kids-they use it more than me!

Tomorrow .... Sweetness turns 8 months old!!!

Gosh, what I get myself into!

Well I am hoping the weather warms up this weekend so I can get my new ferns up and find patio chairs!! Here are my sweets working on their tans at Garden Ridge!!!

Roll Tide!!! Bama plays the Hogs this weekend and I am SO hoping the Tide sweeps the Hogs!! Got my cups ready and flag out... Oh yah!!! Gosh, I strongly dislike UofArkansas athletics!

As
