Bye Bye Big "P"

As some of you know, I had a giant letter "P" above my potty which stood for Pettus, not what you do in the potty. Well, the "P" is gone due to my bathroom makeover. I was sad for a brief moment, but excited about my new bathroom. Fairwell letter "P". As I painted over it, I could hear Taps playing in the background! Here are some pictures of my new bathroom.

Cute pictures of Tate at the Neurologist

Tate had an appointment with his Neurologist, Dr. McGrath on Wednesday. It was a good appointment. He is now on asprin therapy and we have a few mild lifestyle changes for him, but other than that all is well! Oh, by the way...he finally weighs 20lbs!

Tate's Last Shot

Here is a picture of Tate's very last shot of blood thinner. That was a good day for mom and Tate!

Snow day...well half a day!

Well we finally had a snow day in Tuscaloosa a couple of weeks ago. I say day, but really mean half a day. Around noon, the storm had passed, the sun was shining, and everything melted. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted!

Compose Yourself

Mayce was recently in her first play at the Sprayberry Center. The play was "Compose Yourself", a story about a group of student doing a research project on different composers from different time periods. Mayce was student #8 and she had a few speaking parts. It was a really cute play and everybody did a great job.

Mayce's Artwork

Here is some of Mayce's artwork from school at the Sprayberry Center. The first picture is a flower she painted and the second is her self portrait. There was another picture she did of a modern day Mona Lisa that was too cute, she had a purse and cell phone! Not bad for 1st grade.

Mercedes Marathon

Today Mayce and I participated in part of the Mercedes Marathon. I did the BE 5K and Mayce did the kids marathon. It was a lot of fun. Mayce's race was not timed, so I do not know how fast she did the mile, but mine was. I did the 5K in 26.01 minutes. For females, I was 40th out of 557! I was so excited. I know you cannot see my name on the results pic, but it is on the first sheet!

Happy Valentines Day

Just a few pictures from Mayce's Valentine's Day Party at school. She had lots of fun, sweets, and valentines!

Mayce and McKay at gymnastics

Mayce and McKay are both taking gymnastics at Tumbling Tides in Tuscaloosa. They happen to also be in the same class, which is fun for me to watch. Here are a few pictures of them doing some of their skills. Mayce is in the orange suit and McKay is in the blue gym suit. Also, Mayce climbed the rope to the top for the very first time! She was so excited, but got a horrible rope burn on her foot that is still bothering her.
