...and were OFF

Or I guess you could say Briggs is. He is crawling and pulling up on everything, even the wall. He is growing up way too fast. He is almost 10 months now and I can't believe it. We bought him a swimming pool but he has only got to play in it once due to the weather, but he seemed to enjoy it. Our house is going really well and it is going to be beautiful when we get done. Sorry it has been a while since the last blog. I have been a bit busy. Here are some pictures of my sweet angel and a couple from Mother's Day at my parents house. Enjoy!

Loves to crawl on the tile

His new Froggy Pool

Eating his favorite breakfast, MUFFINS

Had to throw in this pic of my lil' sister, She's the greatest Aunt EVER!!!

Papa, he's pretty proud of his new ride

My son

I know it is Mother's Day but we never would have this holiday if it weren't for our children, right?? So I am going to pay a tribute to my little guy, Briggs Cowan Satterfield. Let me start by saying I am the proudest and luckiest person on the face of the earth to have him as my son. He is the sweetest most caring person and he can't even talk yet! It is true that you don't know what love is until you have children. My heart hurts because I love him so much. His eyes sparkle and his big grin melts your heart. I could stare at him 24 hours a day and be mezmorized every second of it. I can't thank God enough for giving him to us. He truly is an angel and we love him so so much. Thank you Briggs for being my son and making my first Mother's Day perfect! Love always,

Momma

Demolition Derby

It has begun!!!! We closed yesterday at 8:30 a.m. and we started working on it at about 11:00 a.m. We got a lot accomplished already!! This house has sooo much potential and I am really excited to see the finished product. Here are some pictures of the demolition!

We will update pictures as we continue to work through the house!

Mile High City

We just go back from our trip to Denver. We had a lot of fun but we were really glad to get home. The weather was absolutely beautiful and we got to do a bunch of fun things. Briggs did so good on the plane, he LOVED sitting in his own seat like a big boy.

We went to the zoo, which is HUGE and Briggs really enjoyed the bears the best.

The next day we did some shopping at the outlet mall in Castle Rock and ate at Outdoor World, which was ridiculous to find. Our last day there we went to the Cubs and Rockies game at Coors Stadium, this was really our whole reason for the trip (Cody is a huge Cubs fan), Briggs didn't like it so much we forget that he is only 9 months old and shouldn't like sitting outside for 5 hours, yes I said 5 hours, Cody thought we should get there EARLY. At least we got to enjoy our HUGE Rocky Dogs and got to watch batting practice. Anyways, we really did have a good time but we are certainly glad to be home. Now it is time start working hard on our new house, we are really excited and Lowes has become our favorite place to shop!

Puppy Love

I forgot to mention that we added a new addition to the Satterfield clan. Rev Satterfield joined us as a family on April 8th. He is a Silver Lab and Cinnamon has taken to him pretty well. He is very playful and is adjusting to our house. Me and Cinnamon are outnumbered 3:2 in boys to girls ratio. Here are some pictures of our new puppy.

Bigger and Better

We bought a new house!!! With Briggs growing ever so fast, we need a bigger house. Our walls are closing in. If you aren't tripping over Briggs you are falling over one of his many toys. By the way I just have to say thanks to Briggs' grandparents for all of those wonderful toys! This house is bigger than the one we live in now and we are going to update it. It is in really good condition just needs to be updated. Here are some pictures of it.

Perfectly Imperfect

Well....We took a trip to Lubbock so that Briggs could see a Pediatric Neurosurgeon due to his flat head. We were there for 2 minutes!!! The doctor said "You guys made a long trip for me to tell you his head is o.k." That was really good news and I would have driven to the other end of the world to hear that about my baby. We all knew his head would be fine, but it did scare us a little that he might have to wear a helmet. When someone tells you that you baby is not perfect it kind of makes you upset. So we just tell him that his head is perfectly imperfect. These are some of the photos taken from our trip.
