Happy Days In Babyland

This sweet baby is light free! He has also gone through the past 2 nights without a fussy spell. He has gained his birth weight back plus one ounce. He eats like a champ...and he eats really fast. We like to look at him while he eats and say, "you are a little pig aren't you". So cute, he is. He loves his crib. He finally got to sleep in it some yesterday once the light came off. He was so content, still and so sweet lying there in his room. It made Mama and Daddy feel content and still also. He got to put on footed pjs last night. The light caused him to only be able to wear elastic gowns or only a shirt. He was so comfy and cozy looking in his pjs. The feet of his pjs had giraffe faces on them. It was the cutest thing. Wearing those pjs made this Mama smile. It made Daddy smile too because the pjs said, "My Daddy Loves Me". His Nana bought him those, of course. Marmie left yesterday and Nana came. Nana cooked supper and watched Henry while Daddy took Mama on an outing. Besides the various doctors offices, Mama has not been out in the world in a few weeks. We went and saw Santa for Henry. It was so fun and a neat memory for us. Nana and Henry watched House Hunters and talked for a while we were out. Nana then took night shift and let Mama and Daddy sleep all night. We are so thankful for Henry's grandmothers this week. They have made life a lot easier for us as we adjust.


Stay tuned for more pics and updates this week. I will try my best to post a pic or two a day. My social media time has been cut down a lot as I focus on being a mama to my Henry. I am amazed by these women with babies who post blogs real big each day. Kudos to you....I have no idea how you have time! ha.

A Blind Date & Leaving Comments

8 years ago today I met this sweet man in the picture above. We met on a blind date in the Bluff City (aka- Memfrica). He and I were simply going out to shut up his stepmother and my sister, who had decided that we were meant to be together from one simple fridge photo and a dog named Abby. Little did we know they would be able to pat themselves on the back for the rest of their lives . I am so glad we both agreed to go out for that one date on New Years Eve 2001 because I have had him in my life everyday since that crazy night at my cousin Hollye's back door when he arrived to pick me up to find a baby on my hip that he thought was mine. I remember those beautiful blue eyes and how they about popped out of his head as he stood at the door wondering why no one had mentioned my child. That baby on my hip was Claire. She was 1 then and had just gone number 2 in her diaper right before he rang the bell. She had Styrofoam all over her and me from playing in Christmas boxes. Needless t

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
