Jen had her baby!! Noah was very excited to know that he had another girlfriend!! Hayes Paten Carr arrived into the world on Tuesday, December 15th, 2009. Mommy says that she is absolutely beautiful - even if she looks like her Daddy! She has red hair, and according to mommy - has more hair than Noah does! How funny!!
So, baby Hayes - Welcome to the world!! It's a scary place but I know that you are well loved and well protected!!!
Lady and Charlie - I wish you the best of luck with your new pack animal. I hope you welcome her as well as I welcomed Noah! Call me if you need some advice!! And don't be afraid when she tries to touch you - only when she pulls your ears! BUT - one thing that I have learned - always check to see if Mommy is looking before you tell Hayes to stop. I have learned that my Mommy has my back - even if it doesn't look like she does!
This is my Daddy's Christmas ringtone for his phone. I just HAD to share it with you. It is music to my ears! Makes me want to sing with it!!
ps - you will want to scroll down and pause my blog music before you click play to hear this. it is a version of "O Holy Night" that will bring tears to your eyes! At least it does to mine!
I know that life was cut short for you, but I know that you enjoyed your 5 years here with your incredible family. Just know that you will be missed! You are loved very much from your momma, Carlie and Gran. Enjoy running through the fields, dear friend!
...is the only way that Noah will eat his goldfish crackers. And personally - I LOVE it! If Mommy does not give me a cracker when she gives it to him, then he tries to give me his. Then I get into trouble when I try to accept what he is giving me. There are several times that I go ahead and get the cracker that he is giving me because Mommy says that I have gotten too close to it. I knew that this kid would come in handy. I am really starting to like him! Everyone tried telling me this, but I just didn't see it to my advantage. But I do now!!
Noah does try to play with me now too. I am not too sure about this. I am still afraid that I will hurt him. He has watched my Mommy try to trigger a MD and now he does the same thing. Mommy will head butt me to get me going and now he does the same thing. And once my MD starts and I go running all over the place, he just laughs. It really is cute.
I know that you are dying for some updated pictures of our family... and I promise I will get them to you as soon as Daddy finishes with them. Mommy took some adorable fall/Halloween photos and some Alabama Roll Tide pictures. I will post them soon!!
I am praying for my friend, Jones. He is very sick. Jones lives with Carlie and Brindle Swindle. Carlie told Mommy that Jones had to go to the ER last night to have a blood transfusion. He has some kind of immune problem that caused him to not be able to breathe and loose some blood. They have to get him tomorrow morning and take him to his vet. We will wait to see what they say.
Jones, I'm praying for you buddy! I pray that you get better real fast so that you can chase squirrels in the backyard with Brindle Swindle. And I'm praying for your family so that they will be strong for you! (Please pray with me!)
My brother is 100% all boy. And I am not used to this! He is all kinds of rough housing and pulling of my ears. And eating lady bugs. Yes, you heard that right. Mommy has found 4, count them, 1, 2, 3, 4 lady bugs in brothers mouth! Gross, huh? I don't even eat lady bugs!
And he makes all kinds of smells and noises that it is not even funny - but he certainly finds them funny. Example - I was sitting on the couch snuggling with my Mommy and he burped. Mommy looked at him and said "excuse me" and he laughed. He laughed for the next few minutes!
BUT - brother does have some very exciting news!! His FIRST tooth finally came in. It broke through on Wednesday, December 2nd. Mommy was very excited!!
Well - brother is in bed and I'm going to snuggle with my Mommy!
