Name::Heather Noel From::Augusta, Georgia, United States
I am 29, almost 30. I have been married to the man of my dreams for almost 3 years. We have a two year old little boy who rocks our world. I started this blog so my friends and family around the U.S. could keep up with our little family and see how big our little man gets every day. View my complete profile
Well I was informed by someone who also reads my other blog that they had never seen this picture before. My fault. I had planned on posting it but I forgot. This was taken the Sunday before his hair cut. The chair he is sitting in actually belonged to his daddy when he was a baby. He still has "Scotty" carved in the bottom. I think its awesome that he has something like that of Scott's. I asked my mother in law if she had a picture of Scott in it so I can put them together. If I get one I will share. He's been a little stinker these past few days. He's learned some new form a giberish. It kinda sounds like bedabedabeda...he goes on and on, and thinks its hilarious when you do it. I've come to realize I have a pretty funny kid. He makes everyone laugh, and making him laugh is great. Because he thinks everything is funny. I shake my hair; he laugh; I take off my glasses; he cracks up; Scott sticks out his tounge; or if we act like we're putting his pacy in our mouth you should hear him. One day I will catch him in one of the laughing fits and record it. Well I'm off for now. Later.

And he did so good. He was excited when he first saw the big bunny. he wiggled out of Scott's arms and ran right up to him. He stood there and looked for a minute and when the bunny put out his arms he went right to him. We had a hard time getting him to look at the camera because he wanted to look at the bunny. LOL. But he did eventually and this is what we got. He also got a book and he's had me read it 3 times already. Well I'm off to cook some dinner and watch American Idol. VOTE FOR CHRIS!!! Later ya'll

Okay, I need some imput from other moms out there. My child is a pickey eater. I would bet money thats why he is anemic. Right now about all he eats is, french toast fingers and bananas in the morning. Yogourt and bagel for lunch with some cheese. And dinner mac and cheese and hot dogs. Now dont think I dont try new foods. Because I do. I've tried vegetables, hamburger...once in awhile he will eat chicken nuggets. But if he doesnt eat I break down and feed him what I know he will eat. Because I worry about him not eating. So do I do the whole you're going to sit there until you eat it routine...(I kinda think he's a little young for that one). Or should I just keep trying new foods and let him eat what he want until he gets tired of it. I hate that he's so pickey. He has to get it from his dad, because I am so not pickey. LOL. Anyways. Any advise or stories are welcomed. And appreciated much.

Well Tanner got invited to a birthday party today...the first time without us. And it looks like he had a good time. The party was at Ft. Discoveryand you can only have so many kids and so many adults so Scott's mama took him. Since she is closer to the family. She said he had a blast watching all the kids. While he was at the party Scott and I took advantage of being alone and went to brunch and the Cracker Barrell. Loved it. Then we went to WalMart to pick up some stuff for the vehicals and the yard. Hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow so we can plant our grass. And as for the the neighbor issue...we're going to call the Health Dept and the humane society on Mon. and see what happens. Hopefully they will come and and assess the situation and make them fix it. HOPEFULLY. Oh well I;m off to do some laundry. The little one is all tuckered out and already asleep, so I need to take advantage of it. Until later ya'll.

So I'm sure you are wondering what you are looking at. This would be what I see every time I look out my back door. I've blogged about the issues we've had with our neighbors so I decided to share. All that dirt is our property and that wooden thing in the corner is home to 2 pitbull puppies. Who never get to come out. They still have no electricity, water or sewage as you see in the picture this is "suppose" to be their septic tank. Well I'v had enough. Scott and I talked today and decided to hire a surveryer to come survey the land. And once we have the paper in hand I guess we will have to call the sheriff's dept. I dont know. I dont know if its the right thing to do or not. I do know they are going into the woods to use the restroom. Scott has seen them more than once at 2 in the morning going out there. Any suggestions? Advice? I really dont want to be the bad neighbor. BUT if they put that septic tank in wrong and it backs up into the fence where we are trying to fix the yard up for Tanner....we want to put up a privacy fence but we cant do that unless they move all those pipes and fill the ground in. Ugh. I just dont know what to do. I wish I knew who to call. I've had people tell me to call DSS (dept of Social Services) because they have kids. But I dont want that on my conscience. Then I'm kind of scared of the reprocutions. I mean if we do this, they still live there. I dont know. Well I'm off. I'm going to try not to think about it....O yeah...pitbulls?! Is just me or are they just scary dogs period. I mean they go nuts on the drop of a dime. What happens when they're bigger and they've been in that box for 4 months? I'll be scared to leave my house.

Well today my little man in 15 months old. Where has the time gone? Since it is monthly milestone we decided to take him and have his hair cut. (Yes Beck we finally did it). He did awesome. He didnt cry or whine. We took him to this place called YAMS (I wish they had a website because I would promote them big time). We saw their add on Tv awhile ago and decided that was where we would take him They only cut kids hair. And they were wonderful. So sit back. I have some pictures to post. ***It wont let me post any pics right now. I will try again later.
This is the one they took before his hair was cut
This is right before she started. This is the finished product!!

So I had a long day at work, when Scott left Tanner crawled up on the couch with me and I was like "COOL" he's going to take a nap so I can take a little one too. Well I must have dosed off because I'm waking up to a soda being spilled on my HEAD!!! Go ahead and laugh. Its one of those I want to beat his butt moments, but if I didnt fall asleep then he wouldnt of done it. So I turned on the mommy voice which made him cry. Not only is my hair sticky he got it all over himself. Talk about the end to a perfect day. Not! Anyway not too much else is going on. I cant wait for tomorrow to be over so I can have the day off with Scott. Since I worked on Sat. Well I just heard the over timer go off. So I'm going to eat. Give Toot a bath and then take one myself. Until later.

Well this weekend our back yard is under major construction. I dont get to help because someone has to keep the little one occupied. When we had both dogs, they really tore up our yard. And we didnt do anything to fix it because we never went back there. But now Tanner is old enough to go outside and so its time to get it into shape. I will post some pictures later but you have to remember it needs much work. This weekend they have tilled the whole yard. So its pretty much just dirt so we can plant some grass. We want to get a little slide and sandbox back there for Tanner. Like I said its still has a long way to go. Scotts dad built the BBQ pit and we have to get a table and chairs. Hopefully by May or June it will look like a real yard. I think next weekend we're going to build the dog a pin because once we get the yard straight we dont want him to mess it up. Well I'm off. I will post some pics later.

Mean Moms- Someday when my children are old enough to understand the logic that motivates a parent, I will tell them, as my Mean Mom told me: I loved you enough . to ask where you were going, with whom, and what time you would be home. ~~~~ loved you enough to be silent and let you discover that your new best friend was a creep. I loved you enough to make you go pay for the bubble gum you had taken and tell the clerk, "I stole this yesterday and want to pay for it." ~~~ I loved you enough to stand over you for two hours while you cleaned your room, a job that should have taken 15 minutes. ~~~~ I loved you enough to let you see anger, disappointment, and tears in my eyes. Children must learn that their parents aren't perfect. ~~~~ I loved you enough to let you assume the responsibility for your actions even when the penalties were so harsh they almost broke my heart. ~~~ But most of all, I loved you enough . . to say NO when I knew you would hate me for it. ~~~~ Those were the most difficult battles of all. I'm glad I won them, because in the end you won, too. And someday when your children are old enough to understand the logic that motivates parents, you will tell them. ~~~ Was your Mom mean? I know mine was. We had the meanest mother in the whole world! While other kids ate candy for breakfast, we had to have cereal, eggs, and toast. When others had a Pepsi and a Twinkie for lunch, we had to eat sandwiches. And you can guess our mother fixed us a dinner that was different from what other kids had, too. Mother insisted on knowing where we were at all times. You'd think we were convicts in a prison. She had to know who our friends were, and what we were doing with them. She insisted that if we said we would be gone for an hour, we would be gone for an hour or less. We were ashamed to admit it, but she had the nerve to break the Child Labor Laws by making us work. We had to wash the dishes, make the beds, learn to cook, vacuum the floor, do laundry, empty the trash and all sorts of cruel jobs. I think she would lie awake at night thinking of more things for us to do. She always insisted on us telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. By the time we were teenagers, she could read our minds and had eyes in the back of her head. Then, life was really tough! Mother wouldn't let our friends just honk the horn when they drove up. They had to come up to the door so she could meet them. While everyone else could date when they were 12 or 13, we had to wait until we were 16. Because of our mother we missed out on lots of things other kids experienced. None of us have ever been caught shoplifting, vandalizing other's property or ever arrested for any crime. It was all her fault. Now that we have left home, we are all educated, honest adults. We are doing our best to be mean parents just like Mom was. I think that is what's wrong with the world today. It just doesn't have enough mean moms!
