Visit with Santa

Mason's first visit with Santa and he did great. Of course, he had his big brother Devon there to show him how to do it.

Busy Bug

Mason using his walker to get around. It won't be long until he doesn't need it at all.

Dillon's Baptism

My nephew's baptism at St. Paul's Cathedral.

Devon's Gingerbread House

Devon with the Gingerbread house he built.

Cherie's First Half Marathon

Here's some pictures of Cherie' finishing the Nashville Half Marathon.  13.1 miles!  Her first (and maybe last J). She finished in 2 hours and 19 minutes.   

I’m SO VERY PROUD of her!

Breakfast with Mason

At The Depot

Devon and I had a guys night out at The Depot last night. We both had our usual and had a great time.

Patty Cake

Cherie’ and Mason playing patty-cake.

Halloween 2010

All the boys dressed up in their costumes for Halloween.  Mason the spider, Dillon the ghost, and Devon aka Spider-Man.



Even Cooper dressed up for Halloween.



Mason and Dillon

Mason and Dillon playing before getting ready to go trick or treating this past weekend.

My Lil' Buddy

Mason and I this morning before he went to school.  As you can see, he’s already ready for tomorrow’s game.

Tired Twosome

These two just couldn’t last any longer and needed to nap.  Cooper wanted to lay on the cot with Devon, but Devon wanted it all to himself.

Devon at the Dentist

Looks! No cavities.

School Pictures

Devon and Mason's Fall school pictures. I can't believe how grown up they both look.

Riverwalk Wine Fest

Carrie, Patrick, Cherie' and I at the Riverwalk Wine Fest in Montgomery.  Thanks again for inviting us.  We had a great time.

Cherie' and I wrapping up the wine fest on the riverboat cruise.



Finally, SOCCER!

Well, after TWO days of not getting to, for one reason or another, Devon finally got to have his soccer class.  I think you can tell by the pictures he had a good time.  It also looks like the coach had just as much (if not more) fun then Devon.  Cherie' was actually called by the director of the daycare to tell us that, not only did Devon finally get to have his class, but that he had done very well and that the coach was really impressed by him.

On the Move!

Mason is now on the  move.  He's still a little shaky but getting better everyday.  Devon (and Cooper's) toys are not longer safe.

Bad Boy Devon

Devon playing the role of a bad boy with a new tattoo he got in a McDonald’s happy meal.  He may even be in a gang.  I noticed this morning at school, his good friend Luke had the same tattoo.  

 

Funny thing is, it may really be permanent.  He’s had 3 baths since we put it on and it hasn’t even faded that much.   J 

A Day at the Zoo

Devon and I went to the zoo on Saturday while Cherie' watched Baby Dillon (and Mason) for Auntie and Uncle P.  We both had a great time.  When I asked Devon what his favorite thing was at the zoo, he said the snakes.  The lions and tiger were both second. 
  
As you can see ...

he had fun on the playground ...



... messed around in some bamboo ...

 

 

... feed some parakeets ...

and oh yeah, "LOOK! A snake Dad"



Baby Dillon

This is a picture of my nephew, Baby Dillon, that Carrie sent this morning.  I can’t believe how big he’s getting.  Him and Mason are actually in the same class at daycare now.  It’s great to see them playing with one another and growing up together.

Baby Dillon

Baby Dillon borrowing Mason’s stroller while out shopping with his Mom, his Auntie and Devon (Mason was home with me).  Can’t help but to say, Dillon looks just like his Dad in this picture.

Labor Day Weekend

All of us at Honey’s (Cherie’s Grandmother’s) this past Labor Day weekend.

A House Divided

With a Bama Mom and an Auburn Dad this is a definitely a house divided. 

Devon reading to Mason

Devon "read" some of his book to Mason this morning before leaving for school.  When Mason tried to grab the book, Devon (very politely) said "No, no Mason.  This is not your book.  It's mine."    J  

Woodstock 5K Run

Cherie' and I both ran our first ever 5K.  Out of about 1300 runners we finished in the middle of the pack.  Cherie' ran it in 34:33 and I ran it in 32:44.

DJ in his PJ's

My nephew Dillon.

Stick with me kid, we'll go places

 

Ready for School

Devon this morning right before leaving for school.  He was in a very good mode wearing his Buzz Lightyear shirt and shoes.

One for the road

When we actually make him do it, Mason can hold his own bottle now. However, funny thing is, he’ll try to get you to hold it if possible.

Showing him the ropes

Devon is already teaching his lil’ brother a bunch of different things.  Most of them good.  J
