Say Cheese!!


CiCi has been sending me pics of Caden today, I loved this one of him smiling so good :)

My little man is growing up so much!


My Caden is growing up so fast, I thought he looked so cute in his shorts so I just had to take a quick picture. I actually got some of him smiling at me, I will have to upload those tonight when I get home.

I am so grateful for my family!

Before I was a Mom, I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.I never thought about immunizations. Before I was a Mom, I had never been puked on.Pooped on.Chewed on.Peed on.I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.I slept all night. Before I was a Mom, I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.Or give shots.I never looked into teary eyes and cried. I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep. Before I was a Mom,I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down. I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.I never knew that I could love someone so much. I never knew I would love being a Mom. Before I was a Mom,I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby. I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy. Before I was a Mom, I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.

Sweet Kisses








Aunt Michelle came to visit the other day and seemed to be the only person who could calm Caden. I love this picture of her giving him sweet kisses!!

Baby Caden has arrived!!!



Welcome Caden Allen Mayhan 7 lbs 8 ounces 21 inches long. It was a long wait but we are so glad to have him here...our family is complete!!



































I am so blessed to have such a great friend!! Emily threw me a baby shower at her dads office and it was so nice.....we had a great time!!


I have to put something about our Tigers on here somewhere, they did so great last season. We can't wait for some more great basketball!!!




we had a lot of fun swimming at Emily's house this summer


Before the baby came we had a busy summer with Sydnie's softball, but she had to slide a bit of prissiness in there somewhere. We entered her in a pageant at the Desoto Civic Center and she won most photogenic and Southaven queen. She was so proud!!


Well it has been a long time since I was on here. We have been so busy as you can see in the picture. We have been blessed with another baby boy. He arrived 7-14-08 weighing in at 7 lbs 8 ounces and was 21 inches long. He has been a joy to us all, the kids are still adjusting to another sibling but I think they are finally getting used to the change.
