PUPPIES and ZEBRA'S and TURKEY'S . . . OH MY!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Turkey Day! I know I did! We all went down to Lindsay and David's and watched movies and ate and slept and ate some more. It was a good day!!!

So, I have an announcement to make!

My dog Baxter is now the proud father of 6 adorable puppies!!!

He has 3 daughters and 3 sons that were born a week ago.

Mother, Sadie, and babies are doing great.

Congrats Baxter!

Okay, so, when we had the baby shower for Lindsay and Ava

Brein bought a zebra outfit because Logan always referred to

the baby as "Baby Zebra". Yesterday we put the outfit on Ava

and here is our adorable little ZEBRA AVA:

Aunt Brein and Baby Zebra Ava

Being the wonderful Mammaw that I am,

I got Ava a Thanksgiving outfit.

So CUTE, right!?!

Here's Logan in his 1st Thanksgiving bib from 3 yrs ago.

Mommy and Ava again.

Kip was playing music.

Logan wanted to hear the "Boom Boom" song.

Here is Kipper and Logan dancing.

Logan was soooo hungry for

Thanksgiving dinner!

After we ate Logan and David had to head

out to celebrate with the Bennett's. Logan

came up and gave me a kiss and said,

"I'll be back soon!"

He is the cutest boy ever!

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!!

LOOK AT ME - I'M 3!!!

On Wednesday, November 18, my little Logan turned 3 years old!!!

I can't believe how fast those 3 years have absolutely flown by.

Logan on his first birthday

2 year old Logan
We are offically celebrating his birthday

together as a family tomorrow but I

just had to see him on his big day so

Brad and I drove down after work and spent

the evening with him.

Ava was wide awake and wearing
an adorable party dress.

We even got to visit with Grandma Dixie.

She has been here helping Lindsay out all

week long. So fun to see her and very

grateful for her help!

Logan was super excited about his cupcakes.

Grandma Dixie let him pick everything out at the

store all by himself. He picked pink frosting with

green sprinkles and white candles! Good job!

Then him and Grandma Dixie made the cupcakes.

I think we sang "Happy Birthday" about 5 times

throughout the night. He was so happy!

Make a wish!!
He got a fun scooter from Mommy and Daddy

and he got a remote control car from us.

Grandma Dixie gave him a fun puzzle book

and Grandpa Arlo gave him a "Cars" coloring book.

He loved all of his gifts.

Sorry the pic is blurry-

I think my camera is wearing out!

playing with Papa

Logan is such a good boy. He is

always happy and loves to play.

Now he is the big brother and such

a good helper and always giving

Ava lots of loves.

Logan, since the day you were born

you have brought so much joy and

happiness into my life.

You are truly a gift from heaven

and I love you more than

you will ever know!

Happy birthday my big 3 year old boy!

Playing catch-up . . .

Hopefully, I will be abe to catch up this weekend on all the blogging that needs to be done. My camera has been VERY busy and I just know that all of Ava's adoring fans are anxiously awaiting more pictures of her!

I spent last weekend with the Bennett's trying to help out a little bit. Mommy and Daddy even got a chance to get out of the house without children for a couple of hours and I was able to have some one on one time with each of the kids.

Happy Ava

Thanks to Brein and a little help from her friends, Ava has almost

a bow for every outfit! A girl can't have too many bows.

When I showed Logan this he got a little upset

and said

"HELP HER!"

What a good big brother.
