Garner family Christmas photo

For those of you that don't get a Christmas card from Corey's parents I wanted to share with you their family Christmas card photo (for those of you that do I appologize in advance if I ruin it!). See - the Garners are all big football fans - and to add to that they are all fans of rival teams! Mr. Garner is a GA Tech fan - Bailey is UGA... Mrs. Garner and Addie are Auburn - and Corey, Harrison and I are all Alabama.... SO this year we did a house divided picture! I think it turned out pretty cute... it's just really hard to get a 15 month old to cooperate!! :)

The winner:

A couple other "cute" ones....

We don't need no stinkin' "baby" bag!

YEAH - Harrison has offically upgraded from the "baby" diaper bag - to a cool big boy bag!! It's Thomas the Train (of course) - and it's a bookbag - so when I get tired of carrying it around we can put Harrison to work and make him carry his own bag!! Yeah yeah - there are child labor laws - I got it!! :)

Here's to you Daddy....

I don’t normally do this – but today I want to give my “baby daddy” a shout out!!
I think that sometimes I get so overwhelmed with my thankless mom duties and tasks that I forget what a great dad Corey is! He may not get home as early as I’d like him to or clean as much as I want him to but he’s a really great daddy (and he can change diapers with the best of them)!!! Hehe! We love you Corey!! Here’s to you….

For those of you that are interested - I made this mosaic on Big Huge Labs - go check it out!!

YEE HAW for the RODEO!

So my sister, Laura, has a good friend, John, who is a bull rider - and whenever John is riding in town or at least near by we like to try and go watch him.  So - Saturday night we went to a rodeo out near my parent's house in Monroe, GA.  Unfortunately - it was REALLY cold and windy and John didn't have a qualifying ride.. but it was still fun... right?!?!

Nana and Harrison

Papa and Harrison

Sorry - it's kinda dark - but here's one of the riders on his bull....

John and Harrison - can you tell Harrison was tired and ready to go home?!?!
Usually he loves John - I swear!

We didn't even get him changed before he was half asleep!!!

Thanksgiving #1

Over the weekend we went to our first (of three) Thanksgiving dinner - and let me tell you it was REALLY good!!!  We had just about all the traditional Thanksgiving foods - plus they made a fried turkey!!!  YUM!!  There was football - food - and friends - what more could you ask for?!? Harrison's friend Beckham was also there - and Missy (Beckham's mom) was even smart enough to bring toys for the boys - so they too had a great time!!  

Daddy trying to be funny - don't worry he's not hurting him....

Harrison enjoying some turkey!

Missy watching the boys!!

Harrison and Beckham playing together!

Harrison - would you please sit still?!?!

Justin and Gina with Harrison - don't they look cute!!!

Mom's favorite topic... FOOD!! :)

I know the doctors tell you - you're not really suppose to give kids peanut butter until their a year and a half - but because neither side of our family has any problems with peanut allergies we decided to take a chance and give Harrison his first PB&J sandwich the other day! He LOVE it!! We don't give them to him all the time.. but it's nice to add a little variety to lunch time!! :)



ALSO - last Monday was Pappasitos anniversary celebration - fajitas dinner for 2 - for the price of 1!! YUM!! Pappasitos is probably one of my FAVORITE restaurants - and I love them even more now because they have a GREAT kids menu!!! Harrison had a really good chicken quesadilla - and I'm pretty sure he enjoyed every second of it!!

Enjoying a little crayon snack while Uncle Bailey colors!

Maybe a righty?!?!

Chicken quesadilla - YUM!

RANDOM...

Since our home computer has been messed up for about 2 weeks now I'm really behind on posting new pictures!  Instead of making a bunch of individual post I was thinking that I would just do one big random post (plus a couple more)!!  So here goes...

We brought a bunch of apples back from North Georgia... and well Harrison found one on the table (first of all 1 year olds shouldn't be able to reach the middle of the dining room table - but that's a whole different story) and before I could get to him he had already taken a big bite out of it... so I decided to just let him have it - and see what he would do with it.... 

And - here's what he did with it!!!  Pretty impressive huh!?!

Next - here are a couple cute pictures of play time with dad... and what happens when Harrison gets ahold of one of my hair bands!

Now - here are a couple pictures of Harrison and his friend Palmer at church. First Palmer didn't want to participate - then Harrison wasn't having any of it... then finally we got a cute one!!


And to finish up the random blog - here are a couple pictures of Harrison and the mess he can make with mashed potatoes...
