Baby Peyton will be here soon!

Many of you know my friends Mindy and Becky. We all taught 5th grade together at Paris Elementary. I was so blessed to have such great co-workers...and now best friends! We never get to go out, so this week while Becky was on spring break we did dinner at the new Shoguns restaurant in Murray! It was so yummy!!! One of the best Japanese restaurants I've been to! After we ate we showered Mindy with a few gifts for her and Peyton. I can't wait to meet her new precious boy!!

A weekend in the "Camper Truck"

My mom and dad came down for the weekend, and of course brought their RV. So, we spent the weekend camping at the statepark at the Lake! It was a great visit and this was the first time in years that I was with my parents on my birthday! Jack LOVES the RV and calls it the "camper truck". For some reason I didn't have a million pics from the weekend, so I'll share the few that I have. Here is Jack thinking about breaking out of the camper truck!
Hunting bugs with Daddy!

He found a HUGE beetle and thought it was big stuff! Here he is posing for his pick with his new beetle friend.

Nana and Papa showed up with a few presents, and Jack was VERY excited!

Here is his new bug catching net to keep in the camper...he LOVED this one! He is all boy!

Fun on a Friday Night!

Friday night we got together with some GREAT friends! We NEVER get to see the Raders anymore, so we loved visiting with them as usual! Nicole and precious Emma came over too, along with the Jacksons...that includes Lucy Beth. Jack plays hard to get with Lucy, but I caught him last night in church patting her leg...so cute!This is how we ended our night...a little keyboard action!

Nicole, me, Connie, and Molly

You should have seen us trying to get this picture...hilarious!!! What a precious pics of some precious kids!

They pulled out this awesome roller coaster, and Jack rode it ALL night!!! He liked going backwards best :)

Here is little Blake. I promise he is the smartest kid I know! He quoted the story of David and Goliath without missing a word! UNBELIEVEABLE!! We really miss seeing him now that he lives in Nashville.

While Mommy's away, Uncle Chad and SheShe will play!

I had an Usborne booth at Baby Fest in Jackson a few weekends ago, and Jack got to stay with his Aunt SheShe and Uncle Chad while mommy worked! He LOVED it and so did they. Here is Jack at the Park.
They put a twin mattress by their bed and Jack slept in their room...can you say spoiled!

This was everything Jack picked out at Wal-mart for SheShe and Chad to buy him...of course he didn't get all that! He settled for a matchbox Bronco and some bath toys!

This is one of my FANTASTIC recruits in Jackson!!

Here was our "Beach Baby" booth...it was so much fun!!!

A trip to Cindy's "famous" Catfish House

Last Saturday we made one of our runs to Dover to eat at Cindy's...this is a good midway point between us and Auntie Jill and Uncle Joe. It is a little hard on the stomach, but the friends and laughs make the trip fun! This makes me laugh...You can tell Jack thinks his mom is a little crazy!
The Costellos

Jack buttering some crackers...healthy, I know! It kept him busy for a little while though!

One big happy (crazy) family!

There's a first for everything!

I think Jack finally realized today that there are toys in his room and it is okay to play in there! I was so amazed at this moment we were having that I had to take a picture! I'm not kidding when I say he NEVER plays in his room especially if I'm not in there! You should see my house today...kitchen clean, living room clean, bathroom clean, and lots of laundry folded and put away. I even got out the iron! It is amazing what can be done when he entertains himself! HUGE milestone for the Butler house!

Campbell turns the big 4!

We partied it up at Campbell's party on Sunday afternoon! Yummy food, gifts, and cake! It was a lot of fun! The party table!
The Ariel doll we gave Campbell...she was always my favorite character!

okay, how cute is she!?

The Birthday girl! Doesn't she look big!
Jack taking his turn on Campbells cool, new scooter!

Jack is at it again....

So anyone that knows Jack knows that he is into EVERYTHING!!!! The new obsession is the refrigerator! This is what I walked around the corner and found the other day...that's right, that is an egg in my floor...that was a LONG day!
