Santa made a surprise visit to Great Grandma's house a few days before Christmas. I thought that Parker's eyes were going to pop out when the special visitor walked in. He got to ring Santa's bells and sit on his lap for a story. He then told Santa that he wanted a Mickey Mouse game and that Addison wanted a doll.


This is Addison on her blessing day. She was given the name Addison Chandler (yes, no middle name) by her daddy on Nov. 23rd. My mom made the dress and blanket for her and she looked beautiful.

Everytime Parker holds his "lil' sis" he needs me to take a picture. We have lots of pictures of him holding her and laying by her and anything else that he does with her.
From the day Addison was born Parker has wanted to be where she is. And since she spends most of her play time on her back on the floor that is where Parker is too. I am still waiting for the fascination to wear off.
This is me and Addison in the hospital the day after she was born. She entered this world weighing 6 lbs. 14 oz. and 19 inches long. She has changed our world for the better.
This is Parker Trick or Treating. Even though I was 8 1/2 months pregnant, taking him around was very fun. He would tell the people thank you and Happy Halloween, then he would look at me and say "next house". He loved it. We decided to have him be a toad for Halloween because my dad calls him a toad all the time. When people would ask Parker what his name was he would say that he was Papa's Toad. He loves his Grandpa.







This is our happy little girl. She spends most of her time sleeping and eating but when she is not doing those things she is really happy and we love her smile.


My two boys were enjoying the winter weather riding my old four wheeler. Jamey was sick of the snow hitting his eyes so he decided to put his snowboarding goggles on. Parker then needed his "way cool" Mickey Mouse sunglasses. Father like son. No better way to spend a winter afternoon.

We are here!

I have been being harrassed for months to create a blog. I have now decided that it is time. I have two sweet kids and lots of friends and family that do not get to see them very often. This is the best way I could thing of that everyone can get to know Parker and Addison and see all the cute things that they do. I hope that you enjoy and will keep us updated on your lives as well.
