Dollywood with Mimi! Oct. 18th

Eric's mom, Becky (Mimi), and I took the boys to Dollywood last Saturday! They have a children's section that has rides for Brady's age, and we wanted to go during the fall to see the decorations and eat the food! We had a great time and Brady wore himself out and fell asleep before we even got to the car! It was also game day, so we all had on our UT apparel!

The Great Pumpkin Patch in Hayden, AL!!!

One Sunday afternoon a few weeks ago we went to a pumpkin patch. The Great Pumpkin Patch in Hayden, AL and it was wonderful! We saw animals at the petting zoo, we watched other children jump in the inflateables (because Brady was scared), Brady got his face painted, we rode a wagon to the pumpkin patch AND we finished the day off with an apple pie! =)

Ol' Blue Eyes...

Our sweet Anderson has had gorgeous blue eyes since he was born. Most babies' eyes change color during the first year, but we're hoping that they don't! Eric has green eyes and I have brown, so this would be a first for us!

Yee Haw! Rodeo Time!

So, you think we are here to do sports medicine...Eric doesn't just cover football...he also does the rodeo! Eric and his friend Jeremy cover Univ. of West Alabama football...well, the rodeo was coming to UWA and they had to cover it, so a big group of us decided to go along! What an experience! We were definitely out in the country! We had a great time and saw some interesting things! This is Megan, me, Jennifer, and Emily...and their husbands are below...Eric, Jeremy, Jay and Jeff. The last picture is of one of the bulls that this guy was getting ready to ride and it bucked and went crazy! So fun!

Little UT fan!

Even though we aren't having a winning season this year, we still TRY to support our UT VOLS! Once again though, Anderson just loves his fingers! I wish you could see through the picture what a sweet, easy baby he is! And as evident by the picture below, he is a good sleeper too! =) He sits in his high chair with us when we eat dinner and we looked over and he was gone! So precious!

Veggie Time!!!

We finally started Anderson on veggies! He's probably been wondering what has taken us so long to get to this point, but mommy just wanted to wait! (This is also when our camera died!) I wanted to start him at 5 months, but for those of you that didn't hear about it, we had a stomach bug for 2-3 weeks and Anderson had it when he turned 5 months. So all he was getting at that point was Pedialyte!

We started with squash and he really didn't make much of a face, he just kept on eating like it was just the same as his cereal! He does look so small in the high chair after seeing Brady in it for 2 years!

Homewood Park! 9/23/2008

For those of you who don't know what Homewood is like (our neighborhood), it is like Mayberry. Really. Everyone knows everyone, people are ALWAYS walking/running and kids are playing everywhere! We have a quaint little ice cream shop 1/2 mile from our house that we often walk to with the boys. We also have the most wonderful playground/park 1/2 mile from our house! It is so fun and we have really enjoyed living here. These pictures are from our visit to the playground one weekend. Daddy rarely gets to come with us, so we had to take pictures!
