BABY CARSON HAS ARRIVED

HE IS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CARSON WAYNE MADE HIS ENTRANCE INTO THE WORLD ON 11-01-07 AT 8:37PM. HE WAS 7 POUNDS 7 OUNCES AND 20 INCHES LONG. I AM SURE MOMMY HOOK WILL POST ALL THE DETAILS BUT I AM A PROUD MAMMY!

DAWSON TOUCHED HIM AND BROUGHT HIS MOM THE BOTTLE WITHOUT BEING ASKED BUT HE JUST WANTED TO PLAY WITH HIS TRUCK.

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE HAS ARRIVED. WILL LET MOMMY TELL ALL THE DETAILS.

No tricks just treats

We had about 40 trick or treaters last night. The special one was Dawson. Don't have the pictures downloaded yet but will soon!!!!!!!
Work was crazy yesterday, our lab tech was sick and Amber went to her daughter's Halloween party yesterday afternoon. So, that left me by myself. I can and did do it.
Gma came to the Dr. yesterday. She had lost 18 pounds and it was all fluid from her legs. She is going up the stairs so much better now since the legs aren't weighted down. Now, if she would just get out and drive, Gpa and I wouldn't have to do so much for her. That will be a RED LETTER DAY!!!!!
We could have baby Carson anytime now. Doesn't seem possible that the time has flown by. I know that Sarah probably doesn't think so.
Amy called and they will probably be going to Ft. Campbell and Des may be deployed. We all need to keep them in our prayers.
Megan is fine and it is Bank Teller appreciation week at her work. She said each day they have got something. That is good.
Buffy is okay. Saw her on Tues at her job cutting fruit at the super market. Now she has to do veggies. She is hanging in there just tired. Aren't we all?????
Lon has agreed to go to Georgia. That is great. Mr. Homebody going somewhere. His friend just got his 32nd degree Mason. That made him happy.
Well the clock says get ready. Yesterday I overslept. Made it on time but it sure made me angry yesterday morning.
Love to all that read this. Times seem rough, but we all just keep on going and look to the good instead of the focus on the bad.

BUSY BUSY WEEKEND

Presenting Dawson the Snowman

Megan and Jason's House The LONG driveway

Jack the Lab

Many many miles I traveled this weekend, but sure am glad I did. I had a GREAT time at Megan and Jason's home. Let me tell you that they live in the country away from everyone. It is really beautiful out there and peaceful except for the train that goes through across the dirt road and all the animal sounds. Their drive way is long. This morning there was a great deal of frost on the windshield. That was sure different. We didn't get up to Meg's unniversity since it was homecoming week and knew that it would be crowded. I am already to go back up there and explore some more. I left about 7 this morning and stopped 3 times to get coffee and 2 of those to let the coffee out. Wanted to leave before they got up since it would really be hard to say good-bye. As a Mom I just had to see for myself that my girl was okay. And she is. You know Jason is her first true love and that holds a special place in her heart. So, family you are going to have to travel to visit her. She has plenty of room and it is not a bad drive at all. We visited the little towns around and she is about 5 miles from a big town where they have all the fast food places, a little WalMart and a Dollar Store. I feel better now knowing that everything is really okay. I wondered but learned alot and talked with both of them last night. They shared some insight into what they learned from growing up in dysfunctional families and how they can make it better for themselves. As for all of us every day life is a struggle, but when you love someone and make up your mind to do something, and a lot of prayers, in the end everything works out. Ziggy is such a cutie and Jack the lab is really sweet.

Then I came home and read the sunday paper and took Dawson's snowman costume down to try on him. Talk about praying that it fit. Well it did. Just have to work on the carrot and how it will fit on his nose. Took the face paint down too, so his face will be white. Not sure that he will wear mittens. The picture isn't too good, but you will get the idea. He wasn't scared about putting it over his head. His daddy is taking off Wed. to take him trick or treating.

It was really good also to get home. Maggi was glad to see me and Lon was too. He was so happy that it really tired him out and he had to take a nap. LOL So, he is asleep on the couch and I am adding to my blog. Need to finish up and complete this and get something to eat. Only had coffee since last night and my belly is telling me "I'M EMPTY"!

The thought for me today is: When in doubt, check it out. Keep the good times close, and to those you must toast. Bad thoughts just clog the mind and burden the soul with clutter,

take this from ole' mammy the mutter! LOL Think I might need a nap????????????
