Its a Papa!

Sawyer's babysitter had a newspaper one day with my dad's picture on the back page and she showed it to Sawyer. He got so excited and just kept saying, "its a papa!" It was so cute! We ended up taking the paper home and he "read" it the whole way home continuously saying, "Mama, its a papa!" Hilarious! :)

My daddy is the coolest!

Sawyer was pretty amazed at his daddy the other night when he made him a huge fort over the living room floor. He thought it was the coolest thing ever, especially when we let him play with the flashlight in the dark fort. It is still up 2 days later and he played in it again last night. Such fun memories! Chris is such a great daddy!

The cutest Penguin Ever!

Here are some pictures of Sawyer at Halloween in his Penguin costume! He was so cute and had so much fun at Grandma and GPa's church! Then we headed to Nanny and Papa's for a halloween party outside, weenie roast and all! It was a great night!

Proud to be a Pirate!

The Branson Pirates had a great season! They lost in the first game of state playoffs to Webb City, a team that hasn't lost a game in 6 years! But the best part is that they fought a great fight and were ahead in the 3rd quarter! They just couldn't pull out the win. Maybe next year! We are all very proud of my dad and the team!

Here is a little video of Sawyer cheering on his Papa's team. He really loves football games!

Chris Look a Like

Everyone has always said that Sawyer looks so much like his daddy. I have always thought they looked a little a like, but never really saw what everyone else saw...until this picture! Everything about this picture reminds me of Chris (even down to the food in the corner of his mouth, ha ha!). His facial expression is almost identical to one that Chris gives me every day. Wow, I think we have a little mini me on our hands. :)

Fall Fun

Sawyer has been having a ton of fun this fall between football games, playing outside, and this past weekend at the Bryant family fall gathering! Here are a few fun pictures of his recent adventures.

Sawyer LOVES football games!

Crazy kid
The only time of the day that Sawyer is clean :)

Painting his first pumpkin at Kaylor's birthday party

Playing football at Kaylor's birthday party. He wanted to wear her new pink Barbie bike helmet!

Sawyer is growing so much and getting funnier every day. He is such a hoot! Everywhere we go he keeps everyone entertained. Every morning and afternoon he sings along to the Veggie Tales cd in the car. He loves the "hairbrush song" and sings at the top of his lungs, even though it doesn't always sound like the words on the song. He also sings to the slower songs with a sweet quiet voice. It is the highlight of my day. He loves to dance and his newest favorite thing is to hide in the pantry and scream when you open the door and "find" him. He is sneaky and ornery, but so darn cute that you can't even be mad at him for a second! I just love him with all my heart! :)

Our little mess maker

I have always been a little compulsive about keeping my house clean and picked up. I think God was thinking about that when he made Sawyer. He is the messiest little boy ever! I have definitely had to learn to loosen up a bit when it comes to cleanliness! Here are a couple of pictures of his latest messes. He loves to empty drawers and cabinets. Just in the past week he emptied all the kitchen towel drawers and pulled almost every book from his cabinet. What a stinker! :)
