First Kiss

Claire's birthday was last weekend and Anthony and Claire were sitting side by side eating cheese puffs and cake. I told Anthony to lean over and give Claire a kiss on the cheek and tell her Happy Birthday - this is the picture that resulted from that! So glad Claire's grandmother was there with the camera ready!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Clarie!

Anthony and Claire

Driving the Gator again.

We are so blessed that Mary Kathryn and Claire stumbled onto our house about a month ago because Anthony loves Claire and is always asking for her or wanting to know what Claire is doing and can she come over. When Anthony says Claire is really sounds like Care - "Where's Care" I really have to watch him because at the same time that he wants to love on her and play he pushes her down or something else - so rough! Claire takes it so well and most of the time keeps on playing.

Love this video - just taking a break and drinking apple juice! They are so cute together.

Valentines Day

Here is Anthony and his new friend Claire on Valentines Day. Too cute - Anthony was riding her around on his new Gator.

Anthony got this new puppy dog from his Gamma KK and Pappy

This was the weekend of Valentines - still had snow on the ground and we went to the post office and pick up our valentines present from KK and Pappy and had to carry it in the Vet School with his book (which was really the card but keeps calling it his new book).

If you listen you can hear him talking about how Pappy gave him the puppy and KK gave him the book. Got to love it - I'm sure my Dad didn't even see the puppy until she was putting it in the mail. But Anthony is sure that his Pappy bought that for him.

April's Dream of Dixie

January 1, 1996 - February 13, 2011

Let it Snow!

Anthony loved the snow...again. We got more this time than last so he was rolling in it

Running and falling down

Jumping

Riding the 4-wheeler with Tony

This is Anthony's friend Belle she is 4 and she has a tractor like Anthony's so they rode around in the snow - too cute.

Belle getting Tony with a snowball.

Well Anthony would not stay out of the snow and it kept building up on his tires so we would have to stop him and try to knock some off.

I think we need a little push

Videos

Here are some videos from the past couple of weeks. We had a few days of really nice weather and went to the park but now more cold and wet weather!!

One weekend Tony and I took Anthony to this place that is full of Bounce Houses. He had a great time. It took a while for him to work his way up to the top of this one - but once he figured it out it was on!!

This bouncy slide had palm trees in the middle and he always ducked his head to run under them. I think because they were moving and he really didn't understand why.

I remember how hard it was to learn how to ride - we worked on this last week when it was warmer outside. He was ok as long as I got him going if he stopped then I had to help start him up again. This was his first time to pedal on him own.

Playing in his sandbox's and wanted to dig with his back hoe!!

Dixie's having a hard time getting up and around even more now just trying to keep her as comfortable as possible please pray for us as we deal with a decision we are going to have to make. For those that understand how close you get to your pets it's so hard and we don't want her to be in pain. Tony gave Dixie to me as a Valentine's gift in 1996 so we have been blessed to have her in our life as long as we have!
