He Sure Knows When I Need A "Pick Me Up"!!
This is a flower that my Dawson picked for me about 2 weeks ago over at Aunt Paula's house!! It was so pretty, and stayed that way for over a week!! He was so proud of himself, and I was proud of him too!!
I'd been having a bad day, but that just made me appreciate life and love to know that he cared how I was feeling!! It's amazing the things that kids know, without you having to tell them!!
I'm so proud of the sweet man that Dawson is!! I love him so much!! He's a little under the weather right now with his very first ear infection, so please keep him in your prayers!!
And this is a picture taken last weekend at Sarah's baby shower!! GOSH, at the pregnant people!!!!!!! I'll get those pictures to you soon Sarah!!
Hope you are all having a wonderful week!!

Dawson went to daycare last week everyday except for Wednesday!! He really done well!! Of course Mommy and Daddy helped by bragging on him and telling him what a big boy he was becoming!! He says "I think I'm just about big enough to drive that tractor now!!" And when we tell him that we are proud of him he says "you is? Thank you momma!!" He's so sweet!! He cried everyday that I left, but I would call and check and they said that as soon as I left he stopped crying!! And on Thursday and Friday they were asking, "who is this kid and what did they do with Dawson"?? I think he finally realized that I was going to come back and pick him up!!
This is his "tower" that he built... And they even left it up until I got there so that he could show me!! I just love that daycare!! They are wonderful!!
He did really good with his nap too which really surprised me!! With him never being away from me or home at naptime, this had to be an adjustment!! I picked him up right after lunch and just before nap time each He day, to try and make it easier for him... And me!!
I think that this is just pretend food, but it's a start... Everyday that he went they would tell me that they couldn't get him to eat or drink anything, not even cookies... But as soon as he got in the car, he was starving... Except for Friday.. I asked him what he had for lunch and he told me "tacos".. I said "oh tacos are your favorite were they good??" he said "uh huh, but I think I still want you to go get me a Wacky Pack too!!" Sly little devil!!
Here is Dawson with his friend Fisher playing in the balls!! And if your wondering, no I didn't stay and take all of these pictures... The owner took them and had them printed for me on the last day I picked him up, which I thought was very nice!!

Paw Paw's "Fred Sanford & Elmo Bodine"
I want to say HELLO to my sweet little brother and my Daddy!! They are both in Wyoming right now, (which is entirely too far from home)... They both seem to be doing well, lots better than me, I'm missing them like CRAZY!!!! I think Tabor is taking wonderful care of Daddy by cleaning and cooking, all of the good things!!Here is a picture taken about 2 months ago of Dawson and Tabor.. Seems like he's grown a foot in a few months!!
Y'all take care and I'll see you both real soon!! I love you bunches!!
I can't believe that Tabor is fixing to have another birthday next week!! Gah, it seems like yesterday when he was born!!

New Pictures!!
Thought I'd share some beautiful pictures of my "babies"!! Tiffany isn't my real baby, but she might as well be... This is David's 1st cousin.. And when we started dating she was only about 7 or 8, and I can hardly believe that she is going to be graduating this year!!!These are some pictures that we are going to use as ads for the farm... I thought that they turned out great!!
They fight like they are brother and sister too by the way!! But while taking these pictures they got along wonderfully!!
Dawson has been to daycare this week!! He has done really good, to never be away from me!! It's really given me a break, and I think it's been a good break for him too... When he gets home, we have fun!! I'm not near as stressed as I usually am!! It's amazing what 2 or 3 hours alone will do for ya!!
We've really encouraged him about being such a big boy and going to "school"... He says that he's not going to school, but he's almost big enough to drive a tractor!! We'll have to see!!
Hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I have!! Have a great weekend!!

Excuses Why I Haven't Posted in Over A Month...
This time it's been a really long time since I've posted anything... The only excuse that I have is that I've been really sick and lazy!! But the sickness is getting better, I can't say the same for the laziness...So today I'm going to catch you up with a butt load of pictures!! This is what has been going on for the past month... And a half!! We've been busy!!
So as you can tell to the left, Dawson is still a workaholic... Yes, that's my baby decked out in his lucky drawers and funky black rubber boots (with no socks might I add), raking the yard!! He's gonna make someone a good husband one day, just like his daddy!!;)
Here my sweet boo is again helping my daddy do a lot of hard work... He just loves to help his PawPaw with whatever!! Again in drawers... That's all my child likes to wear, okay!?! I was lucky to get a shirt on him!!
They were moving my deck from where the trailer was to the house.. It's so nice!! Thank you Daddy!!
My dad has gone to work in Wyoming for a couple of months.. We are missing him big time!!
Dawson has also gotten a new bed, which he is very proud of!! It's John Deere of course... David has got to build him some steps to get up on it, it's so tall..
We finally got our furniture in... We are so proud of it! We got a big entertainment center, a reclining sofa, rocking love seat, massaging recliner, and my favorite.... A NEW MATTRESS!!
Now we have to get the baby bed cleaned up and moved into the baby's room!! We'll find out what we are having on the 18th of September!! We are so excited!!
I had bunko here, back in July, and here is a picture of all the girls!! We had a blast, as usual... Always lots of good food, fun, and laughter!! It's great to have a women's night out with out the kids and husbands!! And those silly girls surprised me with a housewarming!! I got lots of nice gifts!! Thanks again girls!!
I have a funny story about our furniture being delivered... David was here, thankfully, and I was in the recliner just uh, supervising the whole time... They got all of out stuff delivered and set up, except for my barstools which were the wrong ones.. On Monday morning I got a phone call from this man who said that he'd had a truck stolen from him over the weekend, and he'd found a receipt from the dealer where we'd gotten our furniture with our name and address and he was wanting me to describe the guys that brought it.... So I did.... Y'all, these people stole this man's truck...Drove all over the state of Arkansas, and delivered furniture.... Then took the truck back to the man.... Is that not the craziest thing that you've ever heard.... I'm still in shock... If they would steal a truck to bring our stuff, they would steal from us!! I can't even really believe that they brought our stuff... But then again, I don't guess that it was actually stolen... Maybe just borrowed for a little while!
On a better note, Dawson is getting excited about the baby... He asks me everyday, "momma is that baby still growing?" He's such a sweetie... Here he told me that he was going to give that baby some love!! And I'm not sure if you've heard yet, but he doesn't want a girl or a boy, he wants a camouflage baby.... So anyone with a plan to make that happen, let me know!!
Okay, Jenny Butthole, if this is not good enough for you, you just can't be satisfied....
We are still here... Just very busy, and getting busier!!! I love you all, and hope you are all well!!
Have a great week!!
