Can you believe my baby boy is already 5 months old!

I am amazed at how fast he is growing. I adore watching him thrive and become more alert each day. He talks like crazy (as you can tell from the previous videos), eats a wee bit (as you know from the previous carrot video), grasps his little toys and brings them to his mouth, rolls to his side, sleeps 10-12 hours at night and naps very little during the day, loves his new daycare, still has reflux and spits up quite a bit, loves to laugh out loud, loves the bath, and Henry still has to be swaddled to sleep at night. He is precious. I told Randall the other day that when I wake up in the morning I smile because it means God gave me another day to be Henry's Mama. I know that might sound cheesy, but I really mean it. I love hearing his little voice in the morning and seeing him smile at me when I lift him out of his bed. I stay tired and frazzled most of the time from juggling motherhood, marriage, home and work, yet I would not trade this life for anything. I love the joy and simplicity Henry provides Randall and me. Happy 5 months, sweet boy!

P.S. Randall asks for a redo on the 1 month but I told him it was a little too late. Poor baby, he looked drunk!

Henry is so precious! He is really growing when you compare the pictures. I love it! I am sorry you have to deal with the reflux. Mary-Kate had that too. I had to prop her up to eat and sleep. When she started pulling up and standing, the reflux got better. I know that sounds weird, but that is what happened.

What a fine looking little guy !
I need a copy of the photo where he's sitting in high chair with a bowl of mush in front of him and he's looking at you like, "Hey, I ain't eatin' this !" Get me a shot of that one. Love ya,

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 p...

I live in Arkansas and always have but have only lived in Lincoln county for three years. 3. My wonderful hubby is the Pastor of our church. How about that for a lofty title! 4. I have already answered this question in #2, but we have been at this church for three years (well, three years and 15 days!) 5. Yes, I have children.

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...
