Wrestling Time WWF style!!

Ethan has been into Wrestling here lately. We don't watch it on TV or anything I think he just picked it up from wrestling with his daddy. The other night Jason took him to Wal-Mart and they came back with a mini wrestling ring set. I think Jason wanted it more than Ethan did. I thought it was way to small I remember when my brother had a huge ring and huge wrestling men. So I called mom to see if she still had all that of my brothers and she did. She got them out and cleaned them up and brought them over for Ethan to play with. Here is a picture of Ethan with his wrestling face on with the ring and the men. The other picture is of all the men can you guess each one of them? Let's test your old school knowledge!!! lol. Uncle Bo you can't guess until everyone else has a chance.

Snow Day!!

We got a little bit of snow today so I let Ethan play in it while the car was warming up. Here are a couple of pictures of him having fun!!

Army Man Ethan

Ok so you all know by now I'm sure that my child is NOT a morning person. We are always running behind in the mornings. Well this morning he actually woke up early and was dressed and ready to walk out the door on time when he decided that he needed to take a toy. Well... this is what he decided to take. Check out his army mean face. While I was rushing him up he told me that everyone would like his army suit and that he was the coolest. He had to ride to daycare with the whole outfit on. I had to walk in the door first while he waited outside to fix his hat just right before he came in. You would have thought he was a model he walked in and showed off his army suit he looked at all the other kids like they were nothing compared to him and his army suit. My child has an imagination that runs wide open!!! I think he is the funnest thing. I think he gets that from me and his Uncle Bo!!

GET WELL CARDS!!

What a better way to make you feel great!! Here are a few photos of my get well cards from Kaylee and Ethan. It totally made my day when I seen them. Aren't they great!!!! Big hugs and kisses to E-man and KK I love you both so very much!!

P.S. Kris and Holli I hope he didn't get marker everywhere I know how marker happy he can get!! lol

Well If you haven't heard yet I have had one crazy weekend!!! To get everyone one the same track last Wednesday I went to see my Dr about my Gallbladder because every since Ethan has been born I have been having pain under my right breast. So I though to myself that i needed to see a Dr and quit putting it off. So little did I know she sent me that day to M'boro to have some ultrasounds done. They called me back the next day and told me I had gallstones and set me up an appointment with a surgeon in M'boro. for Wednesday the 20th. Ok so here comes the crazy part. Saturday night around 9:00 I started hurting really bad on my right side. I mean really bad!! I kept telling myself that it was from where she did the ultrasound and I'm bruised!! WRONG!! I got up Sunday morning and called my mom and she told me to call the Dr. so I did. She called me back in no time and told me to go to the ER in M'boro because it was hard to tell over the phone what it was. She said it could be from my gallbladder or something else. So my mom and my Aunt came to stay with E-man while my other and aunt and Jason went to the ER. We got there about 10:30 and I finally got called back to be seen around 1:30. It was crazy in there, but the staff was really GREAT!! After getting blood taken and having a cat scan. The Dr came in and said that I need my Appendix taken out, so they called the Dr that I WAS suppose to see on the 20th in to do the surgery. Well when he arrived he decided to go ahead and remove my gallbladder too. After about 45 minutes to an 1 hour I was in the OR room having surgery!!! I will have 6 small scares to proof it!! Ethan tells me that I have stickers on my belly! A special thanks to Kris Holli and Kaylee for keeping Ethan. That was his first real night away from home!! I know he had a blast!! They took him to chuckie cheese on Monday I'm sure by that night they were all wore out!! And I know he talked there head's off the whole entire time he was there too!! lol . Thanks everyone for thinking of me and my family during this crazy time!! Also thanks to my WONDERFUL husband!! Thanks for taking care of me and the family while I have been out of it for a while.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

WE HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!!


LOVE,
THE PINKSTON'S

The reason why I love my job so much!!

New Shoes

Awhile back we went shopping and bought Ethan a new pair of New Balance shoes. You can barley see them in the picture below. Well he was all excited when we bought them, but the next day he didn't want to wear them at all. He just couldn't part with his old to little Nikes. So anyway I was really trying to pump him up telling him that they are the coolest shoes ever but he still refused to wear them. After several tries I said FINE I will just give them to some other little boy that would wear them thinking that he would get jealous and decide to wear them. WRONG!!!! He totally agreed with me that we should give them to another boy. He told me that it was a GREAT IDEA MOM!! So after about 2 or 3 weeks we are finally wearing the new shoes and they are the coolest things ever!!!

My Big Boy!!!

Guess who picked out their clothes to wear today? I had already pick him out some clothes to wear today, but he decided that he didn't like what I picked out. I guess because they matched. At first he wanted to wear a Alabama jersey that his Uncle Bo got him that was a 24 months so that's why he has on the red pants. Then after explaining that the Alabama jersey way to little he decided on the UT jersey and the red pants. LOL He thought he was hot stuff because he dressed his self. He talked about it all the way to daycare.

Can you find what's wrong with this picture?

I will post a close up later after everyone has a chance to figure it out!!!

The HOT sign was on!!!!!

Saturday we went to Nashville to eat at Neeley's BBQ with Nanee, Papa, Uncle Bo, Eric, Jennifer, Molly,and Mickey and Jill Reese. It was some slamin BBQ and you for sure got your moneys worth. Ethan has been doing really good using the potty all by his self so we told him that we would take him to Toys R US after we ate. So after we were done we headed to Franklin to get him a toy. Here is a picture of him in his new Army Guy suit ( that's what he calls it ). So we are on the way home and we passed the Krispy Kreme and GUESS WHAT the HOT sign was on!!! For those of you who don't know we are trying to diet around here but who could resist the HOT sign!! Me and mom waited in line at least 20 min. to get fresh HOT doughnuts!! We even got Ethan a cool new hat. Man they were so YUMMY.
