Stetson wanted a scope for his birthday to go on the 22 cricket rifle he got for Christmas. We found one on Friday and surprised him. He was so excited he could not sleep that night because Ron was taking him shooting on Saturday. He saved his targets to show me and I was impressed he is a good shot. He was pretty proud of his gun and his shooting. Good job babe!
They always have the reflections contests at school and usually we never do them. But this year the boys wanted to so I said ok I think photography would be a good thing to do. So they took the camera and set about taking pictures outside. We then picked their favorite and printed and matted it and they turned it in to school. Yesterday they came home and Tanner had a certificate of excellence and a $5.00 gift card from wal-mart. Stetson told me I could not mention him on here and would not let me take a picture of him. He won 50 cents to spend at the school snake bait shop. I mention it anyways because I am equally proud of them. I think they both did a great job and it takes alot of courage to enter something into contests.
We had a friend party on wed. for stetson. I think he had a good time. He wanted a red velvet cake but he wanted stuff on it like when you buy it at Lin's so I told him I would do my best. Later that night we had stetson's favorite dinner and cake.
Happy 9Th Birthday Stetson. I have not scanned all of my old pictures into the computer so I don't have any of stetson as a baby. But on Feb. 11th 2009 my little boy will be nine years old. That is so crazy to me it seems like just yesterday I was headed to the hospital to have him. I was in labor for about an hour at the hospital before he came into the world and he was beautiful. Times have sure changed with my girls they layed them on me before they were even cleaned up. With stetson I never got to hold him until he was over an hour old. They took him right away to bathe and do vitals and I thought they would never bring him to me. Stetson has been such a joy to us. He is full of stories he never stops telling them and they last for hours some times. I think he is going to write wonderful stories one day. He is so caring and loving . While very demanding he has a very tender heart and cares about everyone. He is always wanting to help anyone on the streets.
