First time to the movies!!

By far the best first movie for a first time to the movie theatre! Well this week I learned why I never want to be a single mother, and also how much I love and appreciate my wonderful husband!! I have to admit I thought I did everything!! Now that I have to do it by myself I know my husband is the best and he helps me out in more ways than I will ever know!! He went to Dallas to work with his brother selling roofs to make a little extra money!! We have FINALLY found a house we would love to buy and thought we would be in a better situation to buy it if he went!! Well in the mean time I have been practicing my momma skills, and WOW it is extremely hard to juggle: work, 2 kiddos, 18hrs of school, and attempting to keep a house together (and i am not doing the house thing very well)!! The great thing is that I have wonderful friends and family around to lighten my load! Addalyn and Aiden stay with Jill, Crystal, Cissy, Brooke, and Nola during the week while I do the lessons. THANK GOODNESS!!

Thursday I had a doctors appointment early in the morning and had lessons later on that evening so the three of us went to the movies!! It was a great idea and it is so fun!! It was Addalyn's first time in a theatre and she was glued to the screen!! The movie was so cute! It was a great movie for younger kids!! The story line was really easy for Addalyn to follow and even Aiden stayed awake and "watched" it too! He was so sweet!! He loves to be held so it was right down his alley!! So those of you that have little ones need to go!!

Zwolle Tamale Fiesta

Braylen, Addalyn, and Tylen

It is Zwolle Tamale Fiesta Time!! We went to Adam's old stompin grounds this last Saturday to get some famous Zwolle Tamales and also to watch the Mud Races! They call it "Mud Doggin" and EVERYONE in the town and the surrounding towns come out to watch these jacked up trucks drive as fast as they can through a field of MUD!! haha!! It sounds so funny, but is was actually really fun!! The picture is one of the trucks that we watched, they had to have a ladder to get up into it!! Here is the funniest story!! We told Addalyn we were going to watch the mud "DOGgin" races, so we get there and she watched really intently for about 15min until she finally turned around with a confused face and asked, "MOM, WHERE ARE THE DOGS??" She is so funny!! She was very dissappointed the were actually trucks not dogs!!

Sorry! For those of you that dont know, Tylen and Braylen are our nephew's, Luke and Crystals kiddos!! Luke is Adam's older brother and Crystal is our sister-in-law!! We are just so close I feel like everyone already knows them!! Crystal is 21 weeks pregnant with their 3rd and we are keeping our fingers crossed for a girl!! They were living in Lubbock and just moved to Louisiana! Thank goodnes cause we love spending time with them! Crystal and I are really close and our kids love being together!! Brandon, Adam's oldest brother is also moving to LA at the end of Novemeber so Adam will have plenty of company golfing and hunting this year and years to come!! Jill is so lucky to have all of her boys and grandchildren so close!!

Addalyn and Aiden's brother and sister????

This is our second family! Kelvin, Cissy, Caroline, and Colby Matthews!! Kelvin is "Uncle Kelvin" and Addalyn is "Addalyn Hope Burch Matthews"! Caroline is one of our Grandma pitchers!! I have given her pitching lessons since Addalyn was in my belly!! She is an AWESOME pitcher and we hope she will step up as a pitcher and leader for our High School team this year! Cissy is wonderful, she helps me out so much and watches the kiddos while Adam and I do lessons! We have made Mondays our day to hang out and eat Cissy's amazing cooking!! Addalyn takes her night time bath with Caroline and I am sure here in a few months Aiden will be in there with Colby!! Adam and Kelvin are workin buddies down at the softball field, Cissy is my example of the mother I would love to be, she tries really hard to help me be more organized (and if you know me that is hard work), Addalyn and Caroline are connected at the hip anytime possible(she would go to school with her if she could), and Colby already has plans to help potty train Aiden and teach him to play baseball and basketball!! I am so thankful to have such great kids for Addalyn and Aiden to learn from. We love this family and we love the time we are able to spend with them!

The McCleary's

Brooke

Beth aka: "Beff" (as Addalyn calls her)

Bailey Mac

Lisa

This is an amazing family that we have fell in love with! Brooke is so wonderful and she helps out with Addalyn during softball season (we will be adding Aiden to her work load this year)!! Adam and I have coached Bailey for 3 years now and she is amazing!! We started her on the Varsity High School softball team as a 5th grader, she is our shortstop and one of our pitchers, she did a wonderful job! I have never seen someone read a ball off of the bat so quickly!! Lisa is my softball loving buddy, we can stay on the phone for hours just talking softball! Lisa also keeps our score book and when Adam and I make it big in the college softball level and recruit Bailey we are going to hire Lisa as our life long bookkeeper!! Addalyn has named Beth "Beff" and she has the kindest heart the sweetest personality! She has played softball for us on and off and she is the hardest worker I have ever coached!! We love them and they are a huge part of our lives!! They came to the hospital the day I delivered Aiden, they are practically family!! It is so great to be surrounded with so many wonderful people!!

Now this is how you get two kids to sleep!! haha!

Momma's Boy!!

Here is our little CHUNK! He weighs 10lbs now!! He is still so sweet!! He loves to cuddle with MOM!! And Mom loves to cuddle with him!!

New hair cut!! Sassy hair for a sassy girl!!

Okay! So I have been told that if you cut their hair while they are young their hair will grow out thicker!! Well I sure hope it helps cause this is too short for me!!

Addalyn got her hair cut on Tuesday September 29th! When the lady got finished and turned her around Addalyn said "I look like a boy"!! The hair dresser was mortified!! haha!! Either way Addalyn likes it okay, she loves that I dont put it up, I just blow dry and go!! She hates that she cant "flip it over"! She looks so cute though, it is so sassy!!
