MawMaws and PawPaws House

Jaydens favorite place to go play is at MawMaw and PawPaws house. He LOVES their backyard because he can run and play. His favorite is to throw things into the fish pond (I know how much MawMaw loves this too)ha ha!

This past trip to MawMaws backyard was interesting....I was standing there taking picture after picture of Jayden, then (as I always do) I was flipping threw them on the camera to see how they turned out and I noticed something in the bottom of the screen.... it looked like a rat! So I ran over to the pond and sure enough there was a big dead rat right next to Jaydens foot. I tried not to freak out since Jayden had not noticed yet. I grabbed Jayden (who by the way was not happy about me interrupting his play time) and I began yelling for PawPaw to come get it! About that time little miss PERFECT MawMaw yells, "throw it in the neighbors yard Ken". I was appalled that came out of my sweet little grandmaws mouth! I think she might have some issues with her next door neighbor!

Don't be fooled by the sweet looking little old lady holding Jayden she throws dead animals in the neighbors yard!

Notice the bottom of the picture next to the stone...a big dead rat!

Family Photo Shoot

Ra-Paw has been telling Jayden about his Aunt Jaclyn coming to visit him for months now. To the point that Jayden will, "God Bless" her in his prayers every night even though he had not met her yet!

So when Jayden and I went to the airport to pick up Aunt Jaclyn, Jayden was very excited! And while Aunt Jaclyn and Mr. Chris were here Jayden was in heaven he LOVED both of them (to the point where they might be 2nd guessing having kids)haha!
Since they have been gone Jayden has asked, "wheres Aunt Jaclyn and Chris" several DOZEN times!

While we had all 4 kids plus Jayden in the same city, state, and country at the same time (Which has not happened in at least 13 years)we decided to take family pictures. I (Kristin) desided for some dumb reason to take on the task of coordinating date, time and outfits for 9 people to take pictures. I know that does not sound hard but believe me it was, it really really was! But I have to say it might have had the easy part that poor poor photographer. I will tell you compaired to Uncle Stephen, Jayden was easy to photograph!!!!

See the results of a very LONG hour.....



Ra-Paw, Mom, and Jayden (Mom is holding onto Jayden for dear life, but at least 2 out of 3 are smiling)



Jayden was soooo over taking pictures by the time we got to this one! He has on his best "trouble" look.


The 4 kids plus Jayden (As long as Jayden could be next to Aunt Jaclyn he was ok)



Please don't eighter one of you smile!



This is the whole reason for the photo shoot and it was sooooo difficult to get this picture taken. Due to Stephen being .....well himself. So this is the winning picture! I like to call it Turtle pooking his head out! And yes Jaclyn is laying ontop of Stephen....long story!


If this picture does not capture Jayden's personality nothing does!



The whole family!!! This was an act of God to get everyone looking at the camera at the same time!
