Go Tigers!

The school where I teach has had a great football season and they are moving on to the semifinals after a big win over our major rival, MBA, last night. We have taken Tommy to 3 football games this season and he loves to go see all the big football players. His favorite is a student of mine, Antonio, who is the #1 recruit out of the state of Tennessee. He is easily the biggest person Tommy has ever met, at 6'6", 310 pounds. Literally, if we want Tommy finish his food or milk, or do anything for that matter, all we have to say is that Antonio does it, and he does it! Sadly, Antonio transferred to a different high school to finish out his senior year a few weeks ago, but it meant that we got to see him at the game last night and get a picture with him. We all have our fingers crossed that he will accept the offer to Tennessee, but he isn't saying anything yet!

The video is Tommy performing the "Tiger Rumble" which is one of the main cheers that the kids do at games. Go Tigers!!!

Happy Veteran's Day

We learned the other day that thanks to school, Tommy knows most of the Pledge of Allegiance. Wish we could take some credit for this patriotism, but we really can't. But it is adorable to listen to and we caught it on tape on Veteran's Day.

Halloween

This year, Tommy was really pumped up for Halloween and was like a wild man running through the streets of Brentwood shouting trick or treat. I don't think he even cared that much about having the candy, but just truly loved the process of the entire evening. We all got together at Dan and Jessie's and had a blast. All the boys were superheroes....Tommy was spiderman, Drew was Robin and Carter was batman. I guess now that we have been a superhero, there is no going back to cute pumpkin costumes anymore!

Fun in the fall

Here are some pictures from our morning outing to Gentry's farm in Franklin, where Tommy go to go on hayrides and play on all sorts of cool things in anticipation of Halloween.

Another post at last!

Wow, 3 months since my last post. I am really falling down on the job. Well I have a pretty good excuse! Check out the video and pictures below:






Yes, Tommy is going to be a big brother and is very excited! Well, he is excited about having a baby sister, not so much a baby brother so this should be interesting if it turns out to be a boy. I am 17 weeks now and due April 17th with baby B! We found out right around the time of my last post, and the first trimester combined with first quarter of school made for a difficult time there for a while. But we are all doing great and excited about the new addition!
