Mommy's Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday, we first celebrated it on Sunday by going out to eat at Iron Moto, and Derek didn't like it at all. He was scared from the flames on the table while the chef was cooking. The morning of my birthday, Derek gave me my birthday gift, which was the Canon camera I've been waiting from. Baby Derek gave me a Willow Tree, mother and son figurine.

Then Derek and I went to dinner at Outback and afterwards we came home and had birthday cake. Which you know Lil' Derek love birthday cake!!!

Here are some other pictures I took with my birthday gift.

Thanksgiving

Posting Thanksgiving a little late, but Derek had work the night before and got done at 7 that morning. When he came home he slept until 12 and I recorded the parade for him. We then went to my moms at 3 for dinner and then left there and went to the Rambo's at 5. After we got done visiting both families, the three of us went back home, so Derek can take a nap before work.

Rough Day...

The little man had a stomach bug today and unfortunately had two birthday parties to attend to. So Derek and I had to fly solo, while Lil' Derek stayed home so he could get better. He was first with Grams and Poppy for a little bit, and then Uncle Dan relieved them for about a half hour. We came home, he looked so sad and sick, but happy to see us. It's tough now that he is transitioning from a baby to a little boy in the ways of him being sick. It is hard to see him feel so sick and not be able to tell us. He went to bed around 8 tonight, so hopefully he will be feeling better for the big EAGLES game tomorrow, because his daddy says that's his "favorite team."

We will keep you updated on how he is feeling. HOPEFULLY, he will be doing much better tomorrow.

The Fam!!!

On Tuesday, we went and had our pictures done at Picture People. Derek wasn't too happy, but was a trooper and got through them. Buster was good, but tough to keep awake for the pictures, and Zipperman was like usually, scared of the camera. We will be going back to get some Christmas pictures done, but these pictures will be up all year.

Well, we finally joined the "blog" bandwagon!
