Rites of Parenthood



Mackey seems to be looking at Matthew with disdain and curiosity.

We had an interesting day yesterday. Matthew took a tumble - his first and hopefully last - off or our bed in the morning. Scared us all - but he's fine :o)

We had new friends over for dinner last night. We give Matthew his little puffs and "cheerios" (they're not the real deal) to eat. Well, of course since we had company - he got choked on a "cheerio" and threw up - on me, too. He's never done that one before - but I figured it would happen sometime - not just with company here :o)

****We didn't have much in the way of rain or damage from Ike - at least not what I anticipated. We also woke up to low humidity and temps in the high 50's. The high is only supposed to be in the mid 70's today. How many months has that been the case?! What a blessing!

Welcome to parenthood, we have all been there. There will be many bumps and bruises along the way, just not from falling off his parents bed.

Whow, MTE!!!! I can about imagine how you guys felt! Praise the Lord for a soft landing! What a cutie! Love the Mackey picture, too....buddies or just acquaintences??? We've been picking up debris this afternoon - thankfully it wasn't as bad as it has been. The trees certainly were dancing, tho! WHEW. Thankful for His protection - and so many other things! Love to you and yours, Mom

Both boys have tumbled off something! One time...we had John Francis over...and Christopher gagged on spaghetti and threw up all over the dinner table...
Yeah, that was a good time...
Enjoy your weather...
Deer season opened today, so my hubby is a happy man!
