Random facts about the kids


Abby isn't home yet, so that means one more day of my kids.

And then I will let Abby have you guys for a while! I know, I know!


...I don't know if David and Daniel are identical or fraternal. The doctor didn't do the test, so I don't know. But I wish I did. It always makes me sound so strange when people ask me and I tell them that I don't know.


...All of our children's middle names are family names. Samuel's is from Stephens dad, my dad, and my grandfather. David's is from my dad, Daniel's is from Stephen, and Anna's is mine, my mothers and my great grandmothers.


...I went in to have 2 babies on a Tuesday about 3:00pm and was discharged Thursday before noon.

I went in to have Anna at 6:00AM on a Tuesday and was discharged after noon on Friday. Why I had to stay an additional day and a half when I just had one baby I'll never know.


...I never got the steak dinner the hospital bragged about when I had any of the boys. Abby, your hospital owes me some food!


...My steak dinner when I had Anna turned out to be coconut shrimp. Can I just tell you how much I dislike coconut shrimp?


...Daniel sleeps on the top bunk and has for over 2 years now. No one knows why.


...None of my children use a top sheet. Their spouses are going to hate me for that.

... Two of my children suck their thumbs. The other two never did.

... Adrian Rogers spoke a blessing over the twins when they were just 7 weeks old. It was very special and quite a memory.


Well thats enough I think. Now, you should be able to take a quiz on my kids lives and make an A+.

Thanks for reading my ramblings. I don't know why you do, but I am so thankful that you do. I think there were too many do's in that sentence!

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good party has to have go

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu

He's home!

I know you didn't know my dear husband was out of town. I decided not to post such information. I get scared enough as it is, I sure didn't want to advertise the information. Yes, you read correctly, I get scared. Before we had children, and well, even after Samuel was born, I would stay with a friend of mine when Stephen was gone overnight. When we moved from that town I didn't have anyone to stay with, so I would just sit up and watch tv all night. Fear kept me awake. Isn't that silly? Well, it didn't seem so at the time, but when I look back on it now it seems silly. That is until I have to be without a manly-man in the house. I'm telling you what, I hear every noise, sound, creak, croak. It's awful. Sunday night (the first night) while I was lying AWAKE in my bed I was praying and telling God that I knew He didn't want me to be fearful and that I knew there were many verses in the Bible that told of His being with me at nighttime . I just couldn'
