I finally did it!




Well, I finally had the nerve to cut Eddie's hair. I have been avoiding it for a while now, but I decided I just needed to do it and get it over with! He is my baby and I did NOT want to cut it, but it needed to be done. He looks all grown up now, but he is still my baby!

Henry and Jantzyn


Henry and Jantzyn LOVE playing together!!! They get along so well, not fighting much at all! She is the his best friend, as he has said himself before! I just love having her here for him...he misses her on the weekends and looks forward to going to church (they are in the same Sunday school class). This summer will be tough on him without her here, but hopefully we will keep busy enough that he will not notice too much!

Hats off to my boys!!!



Henry will only wear a hat when the other kids around him are wearing one. Eddie, on the other hand, loves to play with hats! Aren't they just the cutest boys on the block??? Well, I think so!
Eddie was running a pretty high fever yesterday and today. He was acting okay, just a little tired. I hope it will be gone soon. Henry is doing well...he just loves to have Jantzyn and Nolan here to play with everyday. It is getting a little warmer everyday, I just hope it continues to be on the rise.
Hope everyone is having a good week! Take Care!

Eddie's first boo-boo



Well, Eddie had a fall today and is a little beat up. He was running down the driveway and the small slope caught up with him. He went face first into the pavement. He busted open his upper lip and scraped up his chin and his nose (a little). Five minutes later, you would have never known he hurt himself. He was running up and down the sidewalk, playing and having fun with the kids. He is a tough little guy---not too much will phase him!

Oh, Happy Days!


Well, we just got back on Sunday afternoon, after spending the week in Tennessee at Nana's and Papa's. We enjoyed ourselves, had nice weather for part of the week. Derek and Josh were out quite a bit looking at Jeeps. They seemed to be having fun, so much that Derek decided to bring home a reminder of Spring Break '08. He bought a Jeep Wrangler! He looks really good driving it!!! I will post a picture of Derek and his Jeep soon!
The boys had so much fun with Carter and Ella last week. They played so hard, went to bed too late, and were up much too early everyday! But---they had fun!!! And of course, they got to spend time with a Nana and Papa!

I KNOW, I KNOW...


Yes, I know that I am slacking on adding to our blog. I don't mean to push it aside! After a long day with kids all over my house, I have to attend to my normal "wife/mother" duties (cooking dinner, cleaning house, bathing kids and so on). So, I just forget to do the blog page! Honest, I want to keep up on this so that you all know how the boys are.


Did you all have a good Easter? We did! Henry loved hunting for eggs and opening them up to find out what was inside! He was excited to get a new Thomas the Tank Engine movie, Eddie too! We didn't do too much candy, just a few for each of them. We had a good Easter, but it was not the same without Nana and Papa around. But, we are very excited to go to Nana's and Papa's on Sunday!!! Well, Eddie is officially saying his first word (finally!!!). He says "Papa"!!! Yeah Dad, he says Papa---not Mama or Dada---but Papa!!! If we show him a picture of Papa he smiles and says it. It's so cute! So, when we come down he can say it and associate it with the real person!


Well, enjoy the picture of the boys with Georgia. They had so much fun visiting with the girls last week, we all did! Have a great week!

Reading is fundamental!

Aunt Katie was nice enough to read a story to Henry and Eddie. As you can see they both loved it.

Too Busy!

Well, it has been very busy here in the Burgette house! Katie, Celina, Maranda, and Georgia all came on Sunday to stay for the week. So, can you imagine my home during the day...with Katie's three, my two, and the four that I babysit??? One word---LOUD!!! It's only nine kids, right? YEAH!

The boys have had runny noses and grumpy-bugs since Saturday. They are getting a little better...it just needs to be gone before we head to Tennessee at the end of the month. It has been cold then warm, snowing then raining. I'm sure that the weather has not helped the "sick" situation.

I will post a picture soon of all the kids together...if I can get them all together! Take Care!

Eddie's special spot!


Eddie has found a special place he likes to sit! It is under a small table we have in the family room. If there is anything in the way, he pulls it out and puts himself in! He gets in there and will look at books or just watch the other kids playing. He seems to like to crawl under anything...the kitchen table, the baby swing, anything he can get through or under! I guess we are lucky that he is wanting to crawl under things and not on top (yet!!!!).
