Annual Family Picture 2010

Here is our family! Chris, Joey, Michelle, Anna, Ricky, Kenny & Jessie

Long time no post!

Well, I have not posted in over a year! Since being on facebook, it is faster to put pictures on there. But, here is a photo from Christmas 2010. The littlelest addition to our family is Anna Michelle born 9/11/2010.

Happy days

Joey is very popular on our road. He is so loved! He actually has his own harem. They come over almost every day and walk him, feed him, change him and take him out to play.

Can you say spoiled??? Yeah!!!!!!

Its a Girl

I have awesome news - its a girl!!!

A sweet little foot
This is a 3D image of the two little feet from the side.

Here is her sweet little face.

I can't wait to hold her, she has been kicking and moving alot lately.

I am 21 weeks pregnant right now. She is around 12 inches long.

She is due September 13th.

Joey crying

Okay, I have a few people thinking Joey is always smiling. MOST of the time he is, but here is a picture to prove that once in a while he does cry :)

Joey getting around

Also this past week Joey learned how to get up on all fours and rock. He is so cute :)



But, whenever he wants to get around he does the "Marine Man" crawl...... You know the one they show on tv when they are on their bellies going full speed with their elbows and toes under a barbed wire fence? Joey can go at full speed just like them!

And when it comes to the bottom of his high chair he would rather go over the bars than take the time to go around :)

Joey standing

Joey is growing so fast, this past week he stood up for the first time all by himself right in front of Chris and I. And I managed to catch him on camera :)

Chris missed so many milestones like this while he was working two jobs when Jessie and Kenny were small. It is such a blessing we have a few more little ones to enjoy together !!!

Joey spends a lot of time enjoying his jumpy. It wears him out too - and makes his little legs stronger. I wish they made these for adults - just think how much more fun it would be exercising in one of these!

Joey is starting to get around really good now. He even helps me with the dishes :)

Baby on the way

Seeing Double?? Yes! That is two cribs :) We are expecting blessing number five in September :)

Joey's First Tooth

Today Joey got his first tooth!! It is on the bottom in the very front :) He is such a happy boy.

Joey cute pics

These pictures were from January. They were so cute I just had to post them :)

See what I mean about his cute smiles - he makes any little problem I have just melt away :)

Snow Storm

Little Joey loves Ricky!

This is the road entering our little estate. It was nice and slippery.

I thought of my dad when I saw this. It is our little country store, can you see the man plowing it with the antique tractor? The funny thing is you see this type of thing all the time here in Crossville. You see farmers on their tractors parked at the store almost as much as the pick up trucks!

This is what it looked like when I took the kids to the doctor before they sent out the plows.

Snow Storm

These pictures are for my southern relatives - The kids did a good job shoveling our front walk. Jessie did the front porch.

The snow was very pretty. However the 15 snow days home from school were enough for me!

Then we had an ice storm. They are always so pretty, however, it takes about an hour to get into your ice sealed car!

Joey

I love cute little baby toes! They are so precious!

Jessie plays this little game with Joey on the kitchen floor. She puts him in the
donut and spins him around - he really likes it!

Joey smiling

Hey Grandma - thanks for the recliner!

You know, everyone always asks me how I can manage 4 children. How can you have a bad day when someone is always smiling at you? The "best" things in life aren't "things" at all, they are the ones you hold close to your heart - family. :)

Joey

Lately little Joey is getting to moving around more and more. He loves to play with his toes :)

Joey after the remote

Joey loves the remote - here he is coming after it.

Joey on the move

I shot this video this morning of Joey. He is so cute! We were working on our valentine's and Joey watched us the whole time. So, I put a pixy stick on the floor from the valentine's to see what Joey would do.

Grandma & Joey

This Christmas our family (well Chris had to work) drove down to stay with my mom in Florida. The kids had a great time visiting the family and going to see Disney! Here is my sister Mary loving up on Joey.

Isn't this picture great! We had Thanksgiving dinner at Chris' mom & dads house yesterday. Yum Yum Yum :)

I found my thumb!

Good Morning!

Can you tell he did something new and exciting! He rolled over all by himself and looks pretty happy about it too :)

He is so sweet! He enjoys a cuddle listening to mommy's heartbeat after breakfast.

Kenny loves being a big brother! He especially likes to cuddle with Joey.

Joey likes to bat the pooh animals on his little mobile. He is starting to roll over too.
