I'm almost 8 months old and my Mimi is sooo late!

2011-03-04T10:23:00.000-06:00

I'm as long as my pillow now!

Wanna see me crawl like the soldiers?

Me? No I didn't do it!

Nom nom nom...these puffs are good!

"When is she going to stop?"

Peek-a-BOO!

**I have been terrible about the month pictures lately. I plan on doing better....plan being the operative word here.**

Drex is getting so big yet most people talk about how small he is...He comes from family on both sides of small people.

He's not crawling yet but gets where he wants to go by rolling and soldier crawling. (I'm not sure of the correct term but you know how soldiers crawl on their belly? OK you get it. :))

He LOVES to eat but then again he is his mamas boy. He eats most everything we have given him but doesn't seem to fond of potatoes...that's kinda odd. Maybe he wants ketchup on them???

He loves his daddy and I'm not downing daddys but all of them are not the best...Drex got a wonderful daddy and as he gets older he looks more and more like him.

I love the way his face lights up when someone he knows and loves (Like me and Nana...hehe) gets in his view.

He is a happy baby and is always smiling and talking.

He gets real impatient when he wants a bottle...you have to be lightening fast for him. (again...his mamas child)

I've had people tell me that he is so lucky to have so many family members that love him near ...I think we are the lucky ones.

He is truly a gift from God.

Once again thank you to all who entered. Maybe CSN will contact me to host another one on here! *fingers crossed*

**of course I had to post a couple pics of our lil man... Today he was volunteering sugar left and right and in the last week he has decided to be shy. If a stranger talks to him he will put his head down and look up through his lashes and put his thumb and 2 fingers on his chin. Its adorable of course....

Spending the weekend with Mimi and Pop

2011-02-02T09:36:00.000-06:00

Drex spent the whole weekend with me and Pop! His mama and daddy and nana were moving. This is the first time Nikki has moved that I haven't helped and I felt bad but I did get to keep the baby!!

We chewed on our toes.....

Learned how to get out of our swing and felt good about it!

I went from the living room to kitchen then RIGHT BACK to the living room and this is how I found him. He was very proud.

Saturday it was in the 70s and we hung out on the swing on the back porch. Oh the conversations we had! He's such happy and funny little boy.

This was taken today (Feb 1) He was looking out mamas window at the tree over my head. He kept giving me sugar...ok sometimes he was frustrated and tried to bite. Lord help us.

Another memory in the making..........little shoe

2011-01-21T20:24:00.000-06:00

I just put Drex on the couch, he's smelling all babyish and sleeping. As I was walking back to my chair I noticed his little shoe beside my old raggedy house shoes. I know one day more than likely his feet will be bigger than mine. I know that day will be here before I know it..... So I will cherish his little shoe beside my raggedy old house shoe before it turns into a big shoe.

Sunday school class

2011-01-16T18:58:00.000-06:00

Drex usually stays in my class during Sunday school. My cousin Sam loves him up. This is Drex and Sam's youngest son CJ. They are 3rd cousins and pretty good buddies.
In the one pic where CJ is grinning real big Drex was trying to get my phone, you can see him reaching for it. He likes to hold it and call strangers and TRY to eat it. I tell him noooo and he moves it away from his mouth....for about 10 seconds then it goes right back.

He's not crawling yet but he can get around really good by rolling every where. I found him half way under my couch eating the fuzz off the bottom of the couch. He also was very angry at the entertainment center when he rolled against it and it wouldn't get out of his way.

He's a super sweet baby that hardly ever cries except when he wants to eat and he melts my heart when I walk in the room and he smiles and raises his little arms for me to pick him up.

Our baby is sick. :(

2010-12-13T20:35:00.000-06:00

Drex was all snotty this weekend and then this morning he was feverish so his mama got him an appt to see the dr. He has a sinus infection and bless his heart he is still smiling and laughing but you can just tell he's not acting himself. He got meds so hopefully he will feel much better soon.
The pic where he's sleeping in the crook of his mamas legs was after church yesterday. He really loves his mama. He just lights up when he sees her after being away from her all day.
The other 2 pics are today right before we left for his appt. His little eyes are looking weak to me. Please say a prayer that he gets all better fast.

Hello Mr Scarecrow!

Peek-a-boo!

Oh these women drive me nuts!

Look a tree!

Nikki, Nana, Kelly and Drex came out to the house last Saturday and we took pics in the woods. I think most of them came out great. This is just a few of them.

Drex now weighs 15 lbs and 8 oz. and is 24 in long.

SO I am so far behind on posting Drex's 3 month pictures. Bad MIMI!! They are super bad because I didn't have my camera but at least I got them and posted before he turns 4 months on the 12th.

An hour with the grammas....

2010-11-02T20:00:00.000-05:00

When I first put it on he was more interested in his parents huge tv.

This morning I went to spend a little time with Drex and Evette AKA Nana before work. I onlyhad an hour but I've learned to make the most of it. I finished Drex's square top hat with the 2 pompoms and we had a little photo shoot.....a poor photo shoot, it was cloudy and icky out and I only had my phone camera...piknik.com helped a little though.The hat is dark blue and black stripes....looks black only in these pics. The good thing is I have 2 orders for this type!

Looks like he's fussing but he was just talking. He really gets into his conversations.

Actually he wears us out....we just let him sleep.

Drex's dedication

2010-09-29T18:32:00.000-05:00

I'm so behind...Drex was dedicated at church a few Sunday's ago and I'm just now getting around to posting the pics. I'm behind in everything!

KK, Mimi, Mama, Daddy and Drex and Nana

Not sure what happen to this pic

Drex and his parents

Several people have ask me what we mean when we dedicate our babies and I found this Here...It explains what we do.
small piece from link above-

Christian parents who dedicate a child are making a promise to the Lord to do everything within their power to raise the child in a godly way, prayerfully until he or she can make a decision on his or her own to follow God. Parents who make this vow of commitment are instructed to raise the child in the ways of God, and not according to their own ways. Some of the responsibilities include teaching and training the child in God's Word, demonstrating an example of godliness, disciplining according to God's ways, and praying earnestly for the child.

2010-09-11T14:20:00.000-05:00

I get picture mail almost every day from Nikki. I am sure going to miss these little surprises in my phone when she goes back to work. This is the one I got today.

Thursday we took Drex to get his shots. I think I shed more tears than he did but boy did he scream! I hated seeing those tiny pinpricks of blood. His nana will be here tomorrow when we get out of church so he will be getting some extra loving for the next 9 or 10 days. I hope he one day realizes how loved he is.....

Sundays with Drex

2010-09-06T20:43:00.000-05:00

Drex decided Saturday night he wanted to play and keep mama awake all night so I picked him up for church and she stayed home with a headache from lack of sleep. I also had nursery this Sunday so I got to stay in there with him...never complain about that. I wondered if he'd fit in the Bumbo chair. He did! He's holding his head up so good and he sat there like a big boy smiling at me as I acted like he was driving...of course I didn't get a picture of a smile but that's ok.

"I'm sitting all by myself!"

"Mimi! Look out the window!"

"WHOA!"

"Don't mess with my cheeks!"

"Oook, I'm getting bored entertaining Mimi."

Isn't he the cutest thing ever in his button down and jeans?

An afternoon at Mimi's

2010-09-01T21:41:00.000-05:00

One day last week Nikki and Drex came out for a few hours...I'm gonna miss that when she goes back to work. I took a lot of pics...of course but I'll only post these 3 for now. Drex told me what to say-

"My mimi is a genius,she talks to me and makes me smile real big! This is my NO WAY DUDE! face"

"Mimi wore be out with all her smarts"

" I knew she'd love me up, I'll hang on just in case though"

Hey I can't help it if the kid recognizes my smarts!

A Month Old ALMOST!

2010-08-09T08:26:00.000-05:00

4 more days and Drex will be a month old. He spent his first night with me and his pops and you can bet we enjoyed every second. He slept in the bed with us from 11pm to 4:30am and I'm pretty sure he slept better than both of us but I loved waking up every once in a while and touching him....or watching his Pops touch him when he didn't know I was looking.
He got a bath and loves his baths! He just sits there and lets ya pour the water all over him.

Looks like his cheeks are all puffed out!

I love me some baby feet.

They really do grow up fast...It seems like Drex should still be tiny and some people say he is but to us he's a big boy!

Wide Eyed

2010-08-05T15:08:00.000-05:00

I'm always trying to get a pic of Drex with him wide eyed and alert. I always get them with him scrunching up his eyes or asleep...his daddy took this one. His eyes look super dark but they are actually a lot lighter than they were at birth. They look blue gray to me but almost black in this pic.

2010-07-29T18:32:00.000-05:00

So yesterday Drex had his 2 week appt. His doctor is great! He sat up on the bed and just chit chatted with Nikki and I like we were old friends. Instant great impression!
Drex is now at 9 lbs! That's That's a lb and a half since birth....and his mama thought he wasn't getting enough to eat! Doc says everything looks great and he's one healthy lil booger. (dr words)

Soo on to the reason of the title....

Yesterday at the dr office Drex was farting....I would be nice and say tooting or pooting or passing gas but this boy has no shame and he farts loud and proud! We were waiting on the dr to come in and Drex started his business and it sounded.....wet. So I check and sure enough it's a full diaper. I lay him on the bed and start changing him and he's not finished so I put the diaper up there real quick to catch it. After I put the diaper away I goto clean his butt and he starts in again! ALL. OVER. MY. HAND!
Nikki is no help at this point because she's laughing....at me! I finally get him cleaned up right before the dr walks in the door.

Fast forward to today....I go to Nikki's to see Drex...cause he's special like that. While I'm loving on him he starts up with the farting again...actually he is almost constantly tooting.... I take him to the changing table and take his diaper off..again he is not finished! It gets all over him,the changing pad,his old and clean diaper and his blanket. I really do try to stop it from getting every where but the boy is a fountain! He finally stops and because his changing table is so soiled I take him diaperless into the living room and PLAN on putting the new diaper on him with him across my lap....Can you guess what happen? As soon as I put the diaper under him he starts in again and it gets on another clean diaper so I grab a hand towel and put it under him so his mama can get a diaper....he fills the hand towel with poop and pee and it gets on me...AGAIN!
His mama for some reason finds these little pooping episodes hilarious.....

So 2 days in a row I have been pooped on....why me?

Trying to choose announcement pics!

2010-07-22T22:18:00.000-05:00

I won some custom cards from Brittany and I'm trying to get a good pic of Drex that we would like to use on the front of the cards. I know the cards will be super because Brittany does wonderful work!
These are just a few pics ...some I'm considering and some are posted just because I love looking at his sweet face.

Tooth Fairy Pillow review

2010-07-09T17:25:00.002-05:00

A month or so ago I was at a Toothsoap Party on Twitter and I won a Tooth Fairy Pillow! It's not just any ordinary pillow though. It's personalized! I had Drex's name put on it and a train. Drex's Pops works on trains so it seemed appropriate. I know it will be years before he will be able to use it but it will be at Mimi's waiting for that first tooth to fall out so the Toothfairy can put money in the little pocket on the pillow.

The Toothfairy offers toothfairy pillows and has many different designs and they are adorable! I wish I had one for my girls when they were small. They are the perfect size 6"X8" for little hands and heads.

So when you get ready to purchase one *wink wink* make sure and visit the Toothfairy and choose from 80+ designs and personalization is FREE! She ships in the USA only and she's a Certified Dental Assistant online! That means she knows her stuff!

How about a contest?

2010-07-08T14:24:00.000-05:00

Nikki went to the dr today and they picked a date to induce...if Drex doesn't come on his own.

So Tuesday the 13th I will finally see my 1st grandbaby in the flesh! I am so excited!!!!

I thought it would be fun to have a contest to see who could get to the closes time of birth. If you want to play a long comment what time you think he will make an appearance and the winner with the first correct answer will get one of my handpainted personalized signs. I thought I had more pictures to show of them but I cleaned them all off the computer. :(

This one is my mom and dad's with Drex's behind it.

If your interested just leave a comment with a time. If you think he will be born on any day other than the 13th leave the date too.

I'm posting this on Drex's blog and on my personal blog. I will add the names from this blog to the other.

Her tired and aching feet....

2010-07-04T22:10:00.000-05:00

See...I wasn't kidding about her being miserable. This is 24 hrs a day. No matter what she does they stay like this and her dr doesn't seem worried because her blood pressure is good. She goes back in 3 days and if he isn't here by then they will set a date to induce.

36 Weeks- Short funny story

2010-06-21T18:48:00.000-05:00

Nikki and Jonathan were looking at facebook and shortly after the pic was taken she put his hand on her belly. When Drex kicked Jonathan screamed and jerked his hand back.. It was so funny, I wish I had gotten a pic of the look on his face. He is so excited to meet his little 2nd cousin.

Nikki's Shower,Pics and Devotion

2010-06-07T14:37:00.000-05:00

I don't know why Kelly was looking like that.

34 weeks

marble cake

My preacher's wife

nom nom nom....

Nikki had to hold a baby, talk on the phone and hang clothes up at the same time. She did pretty good and I was the one she was talking to on the phone. I ask her why the baby was in pink and she said"Cause all my clothes are dirty!"

I ask why she was hanging clothes on a line and she said "I don't know! I have a dryer!"

I ask what she was cooking for supper and she said "McDonalds!"

She did pretty good but hung most things long ways.

It was funny.

Kelly, Nikki and my mama,their mam.

opening Oka's blanket. She loved it Oka!

I don't know what was so funny.

Nikki's shower was a huge success! She had 42 people there and then on Sunday she got more gifts from people who were not able to come to the shower.

I did the "devotion" and it went good even if I did cry....hard....very hard at times. Several people even ask if I wanted them to read it but I was determined! My cousin said there wasn't a dry eye in the room...that's a good thing...right? So here is the devotion....

When Mrs. Cripps asked me to say something today I was excited and thought it would be a piece of cake. I never thought it would be a s hard as it has been. I have cried every day, several times a day thinking back over the years.

I wasn't sure of the "correct" way to do this so I'm going to read a few memories through the years to start.

I REMEMBER...

*when I was pregnant with you I would sit and try to imagine what part of your body was making the movement I could see in my belly. You were only 5 lbs so you were an easy baby to carry.

*My newborn baby looking like she had a tan already and a head full of black hair...and a tiny patch of black hair on your cheek. Mama and I rubbed that patch for a good two weeks before it finally fell off.

*You choking when you were 2 weeks old and we were all alone. I suctioned out your face and ran to Aunt Mickey's house. As soon as she opened the door I almost threw you into her arms so I could have my breakdown. I was so scared!

*You riding all over the house on your little tikie, only stopping to watch commercials. Now you flip through commercials so fast you make my head spin.

*You starting school and everything had to be perfect or you would stress out. In 1st grade I woke up late and you were late for school, When I picked you up that afternoon you said we had to go buy you an alarm clock because I made you late. From then on out you woke yourself and Kelly up for school. (I won that one!)

* Kelly giving you a black eye with the swing and you overheard me telling mama I hoped your teacher didn't think I had done it to you. You went to school the next day and made sure your teacher knew that your mama didn't hit you in your eye. I was more scared after that! (Sounded very coached)

*Your first broken heart and how badly I wanted to drop kick that boy from Star City.

*Prom and all those tiny curls I put in your hair.

* Your half day you worked at Sonic and called asking if you could quit because they stressed you out.

*Your first car that I couldn't teach you to drive because YOU stressed ME out.

*When you told me in the church parking lot that you didn't think you were saved and we turned around and went back into the church and you got saved in this very room.

(shower was held in that room)

*when you got baptisted same day as Ms. Shelby and Mrs. Wallace gave me kleenexes because I kept crying.

*How happy you were when you got married.

*when you told me your test came back positive but you still took the test like 3 times in 2 days to be sure....I think it was accurate.

1 COR. 13:13

And now abideth faith, hope, charity these three but the greatest of these is charity.

Charity is love.

The most important thing you can do for Drex is to let him know he is loved. That will also show him the love Jesus has for him.

ECC. 3:1

To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven.

Being a mom is a job! It's a lot of work. But it's also something you should enjoy. Have FUN with Drex. Connect with him but also give him boundaries. Enjoy the short time you will have with him at this age. It's only a short season of your life so make the best of it.

It's your turn to be the mother God made you to be.

Prov. 3:5

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not into thine own understanding.

Don't forget to take time for yourself. There's going to be days it will be hard to even brush your teeth because Drex will be vying for your attention. Take a moment to get with God and pray- Dear God I don't know how I'm going to get through this day!

God will know your heart and honor your plea.

**Remeber that God has given you Drex to be a blessing to you. I know you are going to make a wonderful mama because you already are.
I have 1 regret in raising you and that is not bringing you up in church....don't make the same mistake I did.

I would like to end with reading Col 1:9-11

For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that you might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.

That you might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God.

Streengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, unto all patience and long suffering with joyfulness.

Amen

Nikki's allergies are really bothering her. Yesterday she texted me at
church...I checked between Sunday school and church not during...and said she was miserable so she was not coming to church.

Right as church was starting she sat down beside me. She said " I'm having a baby, I need to stop acting like one. "

I was so glad she came. She pointed to a bump in her belly and said :He's right there."

I could have cried....We are all wanting to feel him so bad. Shouldn't be long now.

Anyway we went to eat with some friends after church and the wind was blowing and it was so cold but i had to get my week picture so here's Nikki all clenched up from freezing!

Your a boy!

Baby G your mama has been throwing boy names at me. I thinking ig yourt a girl baby you will probably be Zoe Grace. She has not chanhpged that at all, be glad.
Soooo if you end up with one of these names just know I love you no matter what your parents name yoi.
The ones I don't like are Thor,Briscoe and Egypt was even mentioned.egypt didn't last lobg at all.
Some of the ones I did like were conner Hendrix, Zane Scott and I even liked Falcon Scott.... That one just seems like a name your mom and dad would use.
She goes to the dr. Feb.3rd, she will be about 16 weeks. They said no test to see if your a boy or a girl until 20 weeks. Were not known for our patience. Tick tock tick tock.

Yesterday 12-10 Nikki had her 1st ultrasound. Of course you couldn't tell anything except that little heart beating a mile a minute. 178 bpm!!

Aunt Margaret said they....(who are they?) say if it beats fast it is a girl.

That makes me think of that commercial where the lady says "Your carrying that baby awful low...it must be a girl" I HATE that commercial...anyway, lets carry on.

The nurse was wiggling the ultrasound wand thingy (like my words?) on your mamas belly and telling you to move...and you did!!!

I said IT MOVED!

...sorry about the "it" part. Most times I call you he or him,not sure why but if your a she then I apologize.

Your mama is 8 weeks and 3 days at this picture.

Kinda blurry but it is a pic of a pic.... I promise to get good ones later.

Your due July 18, 2010.

Just so you know we both cried when we seen you....that's a good thing, you'll learn.

**These post are not in order. Some I post strtaight on here and some I post from what I have written in a notebook**

Today (11-11) your mama said Conner Hendrix (maybe) for a boy.
Your dad likes Hendrix....me too oddly enough. Sounds smart and strong.
She said Zoe Grace if your a girl...not sure if it is Zoe or Zoey but either way it is really pretty.

So right now were CHG or ZGG... lets see how long before it changes.

She goes to the Dr. tomorrow,maybe she'll stop taking those test. She has taken 3 in 3 days! Chick is nuts!!
...I can say that,she's mine.

(11-30) Of course the dr. confirmed and she hasn't taken any more pregnancy test...that I know of. :)

SEE! I told you she was nuts! That's her and your auntie Angie!

Your mama and I were going home from church and I called your Aunt Kelly, this is our conversation.

AK- Do you and Nikki talk about the baby?

Me- Yes!.

AK- Cause I think about it all the time and I already have feelings for it.

She loves you already! It's only been 2 and a half days since we found out you were here-
You are much loved little one....

Your Aunt Kelly...she is going to make you rotten!

I was thinking today that you have so many family members.

(I don't know the ones on your daddy's side so I can only speak for the ones on your mamas side.I'm sure they will love you as soon as they hear about you.)

You have a Pop...that is what were calling him. He is your grandpa that is my husband. He's a sweetie and I'm sure will help spoil you like the rest of us.

You have an Aunt Kelly. Oh boy this one is going to make you rotten! I bet you love her crazy.

You have a Mam and a Pap,they are my parents and they are your great grandparents. I never knew my greats...your lucky!

You have many cousins,aunts and uncles...way to many to count.

I'll make sure your introduced to them. ;)

One day I'll tell you all about your memaw and pepaw Wasson. They would have loved you up! Memaw would have put you on her "pillers" and sang you a ditty. Pepaw would have called you Picklepuss and gave you a hard time.

Your mama on her first Easter.

You have a great big wonderful family and were patiently...ok trying to patiently wait for you to get here!

Darling baby,
Your mama called and told me about you today... I felt numb and shaky,she was shaky too.
I was at your Mams with Pap,Uncle Steven,Uncle Ricky, Aunt Amber and Mam when your mama called.
She said "I gotta tell you something and you can't tell anyone."
(She says that a lot...must think I can keep my mouth shut.)

I told her ok...(and I do keep my mouth shut, just ask my blog friends, I wanted to tell them so bad!.)

She says "I'm a week late and the test came back positive."
I'm not suppose to tell anyone.... I'm in a room with 5 family members and I am not suppose to tell anyone!

After I got over being speechless I mumbled something like this... "You can't do this to me...I'm with all these people and I'm not allowed to show any emotion?"

She says "OK You can tell them BUT tell them DON"T tell anyone!"

All I said was "Nikki's test came back positive."

LOL You should have heard the yelling going on in that room! Everybody was so happy to hear about you.

I figure you'll be here around July and can hardly wait!! I know you will be perfect.

I'm praying for you.....

Your mom and dad the day they got married
