BABY UPDATE!!!!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that at my last Dr. appointment, she went ahead and scheduled me to be induced!!! Looks like Baby Denning will be here Friday, January 23rd unless he has plans to come sooner that is:) I guess I was spoiled with Walker's pregnancy because this one has been completely the opposite...very hard on me physically! No complications luckily, I'm just ready for him to be out!!! It would not surprise us if he does have plans to come sooner, so we will keep everyone updated as best we can!!

When I first told DJ about the date, he responded, "That's good...there's no football on that weekend!" So, let's hope that if Baby Denning does decide to come earlier that it will not be on a playoff day...please for my husband's sake and so that I can have a fully attentive husband at the hospital!!! LOL!

Stay Tuned!

Christmas 2008

We have much to share about our Christmas this year so I thought I would just combine it all and tell you what all the pictures are. The pictures begin a few weeks before Christmas and then you will see our Christmas morning! We had a blessed Christmas...we truly do have so much to be thankful for! We hope all of our friends and family had a wonderful holiday season as well!!!










December 14...we had Christmas Brunch at Old Hickory Country Club and got to see Santa! That's all we did too...was look at Santa. Walker did not really want to have anything to do with Santa. We knew he probably wouldn't want to meet him, eventhough this year he really was excited about Santa coming. When the moment came to actually meet him, Walker wasn't quite ready!! Maybe next year:)

December 19...we went to the Grinch on ICE! at Opryland with my parents, Nanny and Papa. I walked through with them for a little while, but then had to go find a seat somewhere and get off my feetand out of the COLD!! They had a good time, despite the frigid temps!! Afterward we had lunch at the Aquarium Restaurant and went to the Conservatory...it was a good day.















Christmas morning...Walker playing with his new SmartCycle that his Godfather, Ronnie, got for him.















Christmas morning playing with his workbench goggles!! Too funny!!

Sesame Street Live!!

Last night we went to Sesame Street Live. This was our 2nd year going and he loves it! Even though Walker doesn't watch Sesame Street as much as he used to, he still had a great time. The highlight of his night was when Elmo came down our aisle and shook Walker's hand...he was so excited! His eyes lit up and he was so proud that he got to meet Elmo! Bert, Telly and the Count almost came to our seats, but Walker still got a great close up of them too. The next day at school the first thing Walker told his teacher was that he went to Sesame Street!!



This is the Big Bird we got at last year's show that he wanted to bring again.

Watching contently with Grammy Denning!

Titans Thanksgiving!

We had a very untraditional Thanksgiving this year since the Titans played at 11:30! We all hung out at DJ's parents and watched the game and played football. We feasted on lasagna so that we wouldn't have to worry about cooking and could enjoy the game! This of course was Walker's perfect day since he got to watch and play football and see all of his family! We ended the day with a Titan's victory so everyone was happy and ready to eat...



Our Titan's Pilgrim...he made the hat at his Mother's Day Out



All the "boys" watching the game...notice Walker bugging Uncle Dustin! He loves him so much!! In this picture, he wanted to get a pillow and blanket so that he could lay on the floor beside Dustin.
Cuddling with Uncle Dustin some more!
Towards the end of the game...we had a worn out 3 year old!!
