update one the boys

Okay so after weeks of teasing us Davis finely rolled over yesterday. No1 saw his first time lol. I had him playing on his mat while I was picking up i went in the other room for just a couple mins and came back and me was on his belly. Then last night while we were at his GIGI and POP's house he did it for us. It was so cute he was tryin so hard but could not get his arm outta the way and Robby got down on the floor and said"like this bubba Davis" and started rollin all over. then Davis did.
Davis is steady gettin bigger he is in size 9-12 months and he is barely 4months. He is cooing and razzing and just a talkin up a storm. He loves to bounce in his bouncer, and every day he looks more and more like his daddy.(he even makes lil Russell faces.)

Well Robby is gettin to be such a big boy Potty training is going really well. He will just go all by his self. (and this is one thing Im thankfull for this thanksgiving,half the diapers lol) He has got to be one of the smartest 2 year olds out there. He can count to 14 and tell you all his colors. He will sing Jesus Loves Me all day long and tell anyone who will listen to him that "Jesus is strong, cuz the Bible tell me so" He is picking up so many new words it makes me wanna cry when i sit back and see what a big boy he is now, its like all the baby is gone. :(

Deer Huntin

well in just a few hours Russell and I will be leaving for our 2nd trip outta three to deer camp. Alot of my friends have been asking why I enjoy it so much. So I have decided to tell yall. One reason Its good cheap meat lol, and the best reason is I get to spend so much time in thought and prayer. When your sittin by yourself out in the woods for hours you(or at least ido) spend alot of time looking at yourself and your life. I see all the things I am so thankfull for I see how far I've come, I see what I need to change, and how far I still have to go. Then I more times then not find myself praying without anyone bothering me. I find myself thanking God for what He has done and will do in my life, and I ask him for his help in changing the things I need to change. I always feel I walk outta the woods at least a step closer to where I need to be in my walk. Hope that clears it up a lil. I'll see yall when I get back in town.

I love this time of year. Deer huntin, music, food, friends, family, shopping. It really is fun but this year I'll be missin a few ppl. Clintin is in iraq. Elaine still h8s my guts. Julia will prop still be recovering. But on the other hand I think this will be the best year of all. I have my house that I can go crazy with the decorations in. I have my 2 boys and my amazing hubby. Thinkin back 2 where i was 2 years ago just blows my mind.
