"We want to ride the train!"

That is what Anna Beth and Wyatt beg for everytime they go the mall.

This time they wanted Papa to ride with them instead of Shaun!

They would have it no other way. Those kiddos love trains!

Wyatt and Tyler....cute cousins!

Here, Daddy...Here!

That is what Anna Beth says when she wants to give you something!

Just insert your name where Daddy is. :) This is Anna Beth giving

Daddy a special cookie that she made him for Valentine's day.

Valentine Cookie Decorating!

I recently joined the MOPS program which is "Mother's of Preschoolers". I get to meet with other local moms twice a month for breakfast while the kids play in a seperate area. It is a nice treat! This was a playdate that we had to decorate Valentine Cookies! Anna Beth loved it. Our cousins Sharon and Callie were there too.

She wanted to make a silly cookie for Daddy,

a Minnie Mouse cookie for herself, and

a special one for Noni! It was achieved with a

little help from Mommy of course.

This is her praying before lunch!




And trying out her tasty treat!

Sweet girls working hard!

Ice, Shopryland, Opryland Hotel

This is a collection of pictures & videos from "Shopryland". Noni & Poppa took the grandkids to see the "Ice" exhibit (along with riding the train & merry go-round in Opry Mills & seeing Opryland hotel). It was a great time.

Merry Go Round w/ Poppa & Noni

Train Pictures/Videos:

Anna B with her "Princess Parade" wave:

TICKETS Please!

They were talking to all their "friends" in the mall...Anna B thought it was a parade:

The ICE Exhibit:

Tyler was there too (under thermal blankets)!
This pretty much sums up her disposition the entire time through "ICE"...wonderment.
Waiting (patiently) for the slide! Finally, AB goes down the slide...
Then Wyatt

"It's SNOWING!"

Anna beth starting to zone out...There was a round room...with a round ice exhibit in the middle...Anna Beth (and I) ran around, and around, and around...
Still going...there were many more pictures like these...but you get it.
Anna B sliding on the exhibit.

"The End"

Tyler Warren Adams ("Mr Night Owl")

These next few pictures really sum up our little Mr. Tyler. He is a night owl. If it were up to him, he'd never sleep...Toward the end of the night, Wyatt & Anna B were getting tired...but not Tyler! He was wide awake and HAPPY!...These were taken around 9-9:30. His "normal" bedtime is 7-8.

Toy Boxes From Grandad & Grandma

My (Shaun) parents wanted to give Anna B & Tyler toy boxes for Xmas...but they knew it would be too much to take back with us (from FL), even in boxes...so they had them shipped here...with the promise that we would take pictures/video of the kids getting them. Well, here you go! Thank you so much!

(p.s. Sorry about the red-eye...my kids have huge pupils and I don't have the program to fix that on my computer)

Anna Beth gets her toy box.

Tyler gets his toy box...and Anna Beth is still excited over hers.

Thank you attempt.

Taking pictures w/ Baby Goliath (ask us about that story...it's hilarious) part 1 - Anna Beth decided that since she had to pose for pictures...Baby Goliath had to pose for pictures too...

Taking pictures with Baby Goliath part 2

The toy boxes allowed Tyler a little window to play BY HIMSELF!!! Anna Beth loves to play with Tyler...and they play great together, but he rarely gets the opportunity to explore things w/o Anna Beth "showing him" how to play...
