Because...

it is NEVER to early to instill the pride!

Go State!

Caroline, don't even joke about going to that school to the north!
(for you non Mississippi residents, that would be Ole Miss)

Worth doing his best, "it was a long night on fraternity row" impression.

And Caroline, looking fired up and ready to be a bulldog one day!

I also had to include this picture. Eugene snapped it the other day. My three children!

Clearly, Caroline is a little more awake these days than her brother. He is still sleepy and snuggly!

The Soph

My brother sent me this picture today of Sophie. (It's a little blurry because it was taken with his phone.) Has Sophie gotten big or what??!! She is SOOO cute. I can't wait to actually get to spend some time with this little beauty. I feel like I don't have quite the bond with her like I did with Ava. I know that is because I was pregnant and couldn't travel. Little Soph, we have lots to catch up on!!

Since we are talking about nieces... please look at stinking GORGEOUS Ava is! This is her school picture. Oh I love this little angel!!

Nursery Pictures

I just realized that in all the crazieness that was the end of my pregnancy I never posted any pictures of the nursery. So... for your enjoyment

Smiles and Snuggles

We are still alive over here in "twinville." Worth and Caroline have been doing well and have actually started sleeping a LITTLE bit more at night. I have been following Baby Wise (a book that helps me develop a schedule for both day and night). So, that and a lot of great advice from friends have helped the babies stretch their night time feedings out! Instead of feeding them at 12am, 3am, and 6am we are feeding at 2am and 6am! Woo Hoo!!!

Eugene and I have a system that helps us each get some sleep. I have been taking the 2am feeding and he takes the 6am feeding. It's amazing what 4 hours of straight sleep can do for your mental state.

I love this picture. They were both napping on a pillow in my lap. I looked down to see them holding hands... too sweet! And... please look at Worth's smile. I could eat him up!

Daddy and Worth snugglin'

Daddy's girl already

All smiles

Look at my big ol' boy! I could kiss those chubby cheeks all day!

Flood Waters

I mentioned in my post the other day that we got some terrible weather here over the weekend. Well, not only was it severe it was torrential. Dyersburg (about 15 minutes from Halls) sustained some serious flooding. The Forked Deer River is at its highest level since 1937. Please pray for the families that lost their homes and also those that lost their businesses.

The flooding is mostly located in south Dyersburg. Here are some pictures that a friend of mine took while flying over the devastation. (Click on the pictures to make them bigger)

The Budweiser plant off of Hwy 51

Hwy 412 between Halls and Jackson. (Good thing this happened after I had babies. I would hate to try to get to the hospital through this mess!)

Dairy Queen on old Hwy 51 with water almost up to the roof

Ariel view of "south town" coming from Hwy 51 S

Too cute

I know that many of my facebook friends saw this picture when I posted it, but I had to share it here too. They look like they are just having a party... I'm thinking Worth's doing the sprinkler and Caroline is Raisin' the Roof!

Bad Weather but Good Times

Although west Tennessee was slammed with terrible weather and floods this weekend, my mom and Aunt Gayle came to visit. They were the silver lining to the storm clouds for sure! Eugene went to a bachelor party in St. Louis, so it was a girls weekend... well plus Worth.

We did spend a little time in the basement Friday and Saturday night with the tornado sirens blaring. Thank goodness nothing came of those storms. It was pretty scary thinking about a tornado and infant twins in the same scenario.

Gayle and Caroline having some snuggle time

Sweet Worth just chillin'
