This is Tony and Jerick on Aleenas birthday. Jerick was only one month old. Sorry there are two pictures, I am still learning how to post pictures.
I got picture tagged by my daughter-in-law Amanda. I couldn't do fourth folder, fourth picture because it was of Tiffany in hard labor with Jerick. She would have hated me to post that picture. So here is fifth folder, fourth picture. This was from January 2006. Trevor had just had his tonsils and adnoids taken out and was resting and playing video games.
Can you believe my baby is 11 years old. On November 21, 1997 we were blessed with a beautiful baby boy! We thought we were done having kids and was very surprised when we found out I was pregnant. Of course the kids were thrilled because they had been begging for a baby. It happened that we announced it to the kids on April Fools Day. Not on purpose. The kids thought we were so mean when we told them. They thought it was an April fools joke. It took a while to convince them that we really were having a baby. Tyson and Tony were thrilled when we found out it was a boy. Tony always told me he thought there was a boy that needed to come to our family. I was stubborn and told him it would have to be with his next wife because I was done having kids. I am so glad that someone else knew what was best for our family and sent Trevor to us. I have always called him our bonus baby because he has brought so much joy to our lives. We all love him so much.
On Thursday we went to our last cub scout pack meeting. Trevor has worked very hard and earned alot of awards including his religious knot and his Arrow of Light. A guy dressed up as an indian did a special presentation and Trevor was presented to the New Scouts. I know it will only be a few years until he earns his eagle scout award. He is very good at setting and reaching his goals. We are so proud of him!
