Mothers are Wonderful People

Curtis and I are very lucky to have two wonderful mothers. I want to thank Granann for coming to the house the other day to babysit. Curtis had to study so she loaded up Granny and came over. When I got home from work, the dishes were washed and laundry was done. What a wonderful surprise. Thank you so very much Ann.

I don't have recent picture of mom on my new computer, but you all know what she looks like. She is always willing to watch Livvy for a couple of hours so we can catch a nap or run to the store. She picked Livvy up the other night on her way home. Curtis and I ate dinner alone. It was a little strange. So very quiet. We only talked about Livvy a little. Thanks mom for all that you do.


I know the title says mothers, but grandmothers are wonderful also. A few weeks ago, Mom, Livvy, and I went to El Paso. Livvy got a cold while we were there and couldn't sleep laying down because she would get stopped up. Mamaw sat up with her all night rocking and singing to her so mom and I could sleep. Thanks Mamaw for being a great grandmother.

This is the last one for the day.

Merry Christmas

I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas. We have had a wonderful one and it's not over yet. We are very thankful that we have such great family and friends and a precious daughter. Thank you all.

Mr. Bear

Taylor gave Livvy this bear. It is very cute and soft. This morning she was sitting in her high chair and grabed the bear and growled at it. Then she started chewing on its nose. She growled at it several times. I think it's the funniest thing she has done yet.

Santa Claus

Santa Claus came to our house this morning. Livvy got a bunch of hair bows, a rattle, a teether, and some one slipped in some lottery tickets.
She has had a good time opening presents this past week. By next year she'll be a pro.

Crockett and I are getting a new sister!!!

Taylor and Summer are getting MARRIED!!! The wedding is June 9th. Welcome to the family Summer.

Davies Christmas

We had Christmas Eve at Mamia's/Bill's house. Everyone had a great time.


Kellyn played the organ for us and it was wonderful. She is a very talented young lady. After presents were opened she tried on probably five different perfumes. Then she was a very smelly young lady.

Blaze got roller skates with knee pads. He was zooming around the house.

My Christmas Present

I just had to show off my Chirstmas present from Curtis and Olivia. Curtis couldn't wait and I got to open it already. It is very sweet and thoughtful of him.

Cousins Christmas

We had lunch with Curtis' family today. The kids got to open presents. This is a picture of Livvy and her cousins. Gabby, John, Alex, Livvy, & Christopher.


The silly face picture. Some were escaping.

Christmas with the Gossetts

The Gossett Family came over the other night for Christmas. The kids had a great time.
Maddie and Livvy above. Ryan is in the next picture and then Dylan. The boys got guns that shoot those foam discs. They had everyone surrendering.

Livvy can read.

The other morning I put Livvy in her crib with a book so I could get ready for work. She was very quiet and when I went to check on her this is what I found.

Taylor is a College Graduate

Last weekend Taylor graduated from West Texas A&M. Yeeaaa!!!!
Mom and Dad had a little get together before graduation. We got to meet some of Taylor's Canyon and Miami friends.
We are all very proud of Taylor and I know mom and dad are happy no one is currently in college.

I'm still blogging

I know I haven't posted anything in a while. We are having computer issues at home. Just wanted to let everyone know. I have some really good pictures to post, but have to wait till I get a new computer. Check back in about a week.

Snow Day

I love the snow and wanted to share it with Olivia. So I took the Bumbo Chair outside and took her picture. She seemed to love it as much as I do. Notice the boots in the picture below. Aunt Crockett got them for her. They are lined with fur. Cozy warm.

All bundled up this morning and ready to go to the babysitter. We want to especially thank Aunt Misti for this nifty car seat blanket. Warm and cuddly, Livvy was this morning in the cold wind. It didn't seem to bother her though.

My favorite snow picture. She has discovered she can stick out her tongue and does it all the time.

Now onto another subject. Averi, can you tell me why blogger won't put my pictures up in the order that I pick them.

With the Davies Family

Posing for pictures with Aunt Crockett and Uncle Taylor. Dad and Livvy checking something out. Probably her feet. She is fascinated with her feet.

What a good picture of Kathy and Livvy. Playing with Summer. We love Summer.
Hanging out at the Sparkman's for games and dessert.

MaMia had a really good night. I think she really enjoys all the kids being around.
Olivia with her cousin Tucker. The two new baby cousins together. Thatcher and Olivia
Sloan loves babies. She is so much fun. Livvy with Noel and Kenda.
We had a great Thanksgiving. Thanks everyone. We loved seeing you guys.

Thanksgiving In Brownfield

We had lunch in Brownfield with the Heathcoat's. It was wonderful to see everyone. Livvy being held by her cousin Alex. We got to meet her new cousin Jaycee. She is about a month and a half older and just full of energy. What a fun time we all had.

The Bumbo Chair

Curtis' mom got Livvy a Bumbo Chair. This is the best baby thing ever. She can sit up in it all by herself. There are no straps or things to keep her in and it weighs almost nothing. She loves this thing. She has been more interested in sitting up than rolling over, so this is a wonderful thing. I didn't think it really worked but it does. Thanks Ann.

Johnny Jumper

Kathy and Mister brought Livvy a Johhny Jumper last week. After dad and I finally got it together, Livvy had a good time licking it. Ther was no jumping going on. All she did was gnaw and drool all over it. We think she is in the early teething stages.



She really likes to sit in it and sometimes she will swing.

Livvy and Baby Food

Tonight Livvy ate peas for the first time. It was a big mess but she had a good time. I stripped her clothes off because I didn't want to try and get peas out clothes.

This was rice cereal from the other day. More peas.

These aren't in order. I haven't gotten very good at posting yet. The doctor told us she could start baby food. So we've been experimenting. She wasn't much on peas, but she really likes juice. Go figure.
