Photo Contest

I know its silly...

EVERY mom thinks their baby is the cutest!

I think Aaron is a handsome baby!

So... I put him in a GAP casting call!

I don't care about him becoming famous!

I really don't!

If we get the most fan votes then I will be able to buy my

kids new clothes!

Thanks to my sister, Aaron wont need any for awhile!

But Austin.....

This child grows like a WEED!!!!

I can't keep clothes in his closet!

He does not want his picture made for it!

Even though he is SUPER handsome!!!

I don't think he agrees!

So I used Aaron!

If anyone wants to vote you can go to

www.gapcastingcall.com

Enter 799523 in the contestant ID area!

And click fan vote!!!

Its super easy! And it would help my family out alot!!!

You can vote once a day!

I will not be upset if Aaron does not win!

Its just kinda fun!!!

All-Star Letters

I am so loving my new project!!!

If anyone has kids playing sports, let me put their name on their jearsey!!!

It does not take me long!

I wanted to start something I could do from home, and earn an extra income for my family! And this is just perfect for me!!!

With Austin playing football, basketball and baseball, we are always having this done! And I know parents want it done too!

We are hoping to do good with this so eventually we can start doing screen printing!!

I am so excited about this!

I would love to have your buisness if anyone is interested!!

Just call me!

Its been awhile....

Wow.... I can not believe it has been so long since I have posted anything!
Our life has been so busy with football, school, a 9 year old and a 6 month old!!!
But it has been wonderful! Austin's football season is almost over now, Saturday will be his last game! Maybe he will score Momma a few more touch-downs!! (Yes, my baby is scoreing some touch-downs! With some amazing help from his team!!) We might even be going to play-off's!!! If not its ok, because we are about to start BASKETBALL!!! Wow, it never stops!!!
Aaron just turned 6 months old!! He is now rolling over, pushing up, and trying to push himself around! It blows my mind how fast he is growing up! He got his first ear infection on his 6 month birthday! But did amazing with it! You would never guess that he even had one!!
Josh's business is doing great! Keeping him pretty busy! Thank you Lord!! That is the reason I am able to stay home with our kids!

We just got home Sunday from an amazing family trip to Gatlinburg! It was so nice to get away and just spend some time with my family! I cant wait to go again!!!

This week has kinda been crazy for us!
Last Sunday we got home from church and I noticed Aaron was just not acting right! He normally NEVER cries! But he was really fussy... So I started to worry!
I called my mom (which I always do when I have a question about something!) the next morning (Monday) and told her what was going on, how he had been fussy, and not sleeping the night before, so we decided that I needed to bring him to the dr!! So I did, and she said that he was ok! Just congested and not feeling good! No fever, his ears looked great (which I was worried about)! So.... I was just thinking to much into it! I am good at that! I was totally shcoked when they got his weight! 14 & 1/2 lbs! And he was not even 4 months at the time! Big boy ;o)
So after the dr, we went to Nana and Papa's to see them! Kayla, Michelle and Ashton were there! And then Mags and Bubba came! Kayla fixed my hair for me! Because Aaron and I had some pictures made that night! It was so much fun! Christy did such a great job with him! And she is so talanted! I cant wait to see all of them! And it was nice to get to hang out with her!
Tuesday, Austin and I just hung out at the house! He had football practice! I just love to watch him play! He is such a talanted little guy! So good at all he does!
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were not to eventful! Just normal days around our house!
And here we are Saturday! The weekend! I was so looking forward to spending time with my husband, but he had to work! It always makes me sad when he has to work on Saturday's! But I know that he has to in order to keep our family going ;o)
I am so blessed with such an amazing husband! He is so good to me, better than I deserve! Trust me!!!!!
Tomorrow is the 15th!! Which means my little man is going to be 4 months old! Wow! I can not believe that 4 months ago God blessed me with such a sweet little baby boy! A healthy baby boy! I never thought I could love someone as much as I do him!

Just another day......

Daddy and Aaron watching tv! Something they both enjoy ;o)

Me and Sissy at Nana and Papa's house!

Papa loves my little man! And my little man LOVES Papa!


My sweet boy is starting to enjoy his bath time!

Nothing much has changed around our house! Same old stuff! Josh working, me cleaning and cooking, taking care of my boys, and football practice!

But I love my life! I really do!!!!

A new friend....

Today was a great day!!! Me and the boys got up and got ready to go see Nana and Papa!!! She had us breakfast made and all! Kayla brought some home video's up to watch! They were so funny!!! Matt singing and old half time shows from our band days!! Then Aunt Milford and Gloria came over!! I was so excited to see them!!

Kayla and I went to Sally's to get some color for my hair! We took the blonde out that Beth put in! Josh said he is happy to have his wife back! I guess to make him happy I will just keep it dark! I like it that way, I just want something different sometimes! I guess its a woman thing ;D

After we did my hair, Michelle and Ashton came over! And I got to see Michelle's new hair!!! (Which I love!!!) Austin was so excited to see Ashton! I know he is so ready for Aaron to get that big! Its so hard for him to play with Aaron while he is still so small!!!

We could not stay as long as I wanted to today! I had to come home and clean my house! Josh was able to get off work early! I was so excited!!! He normally gets home at like 9 or 10!!! So seeing him home at 6 was awesome!!!!

While I was cleaning Aaron's room, I put him in his crib! Which I dont do very often! I am not ready for him to stay in it yet! I looked over and he found one of his little blanket/ bear! And he loved it! He started playing with it, and pulling it close to his face! So I asked him if he liked his "snuggie", and he started laughing!!! Out loud! It was SO cute!!!

So, he kept a tight hold on it the rest of the night! And when I rocked him to sleep, he kept it in his hands! So I let him sleep with it! So, the newest member of our family has a new friend! His name is "Snuggie"!!!!

Its FOOTBALL time!!!!!!

Warming up!
Aaron sporting his Falcons shrit!
Getting ready himself!
He was so good during practice!



He just keeps growing!
Trying to figure out if he wants to be QB again!

Perfect father and son time!!!

Aaron was in a great mood when we got home!!!

Today was a good day for me and my boys!

We went and got all of Austin's school supplies!

Last year I waited until last min!

I am so good at that!

But, this year I jumped on board!

With over a month to spare!

At ball practice, I didnt stay to long, just because I had Aaron!

I didnt want him to get too hot!

But he LOVES to be outside!

He wants to know what is going on at all times!

He is like his Daddy!

I cant wait till football season starts!
I love watching Austin play!

He is so good at everything he does!

He makes me so proud to call him...

MY SON!!!!

My baby boy is 3 months old!!!

William Aaron Payne

4-15-10

7 lbs 1 oz

My pride and joy!

I never thought I could love someone as much as I love him!

Even before he was born!

When we brought him home!

My sweet baby boy at 2 months old!

And here he is now!

3 months old!
And so full of life!

He loves his daddy so much!!

He smiles and laughs!

And he is trying so hard to roll over!

His sweet smile melts my heart everytime he looks at me!

I would do anything for him!

And I thank God for the amazing blessing that He has blessed me with!

I love my son more than anything in this world!!!

An afternoon at the pool!

Cannon Ball!!!!!

Floating in the water!

Austin

My little FISH!!!

He would stay in the water all day if I would let him!

He loves to jump in and show me all the tricks he can do!

Its so hard to believe that he is 9 years old!!!

And that he is going into the 4th grade!

I love this kid so much!
