They have something special... it's brotherly love :)

They share the same last name and the same color eyes... but the fight like tigers over one old red PHONE... or at least Will does! Poor Carter... Will wanted a red play cell phone and apparently thought Carter wanted to wrestle for it!

They actually are becoming sweet little friends... here are some bath time shots! Will is showing Carter the ropes... he is now out of his baby tub! TEAR... growing up fast!

Carter looks at Will like he loves him so much :)! I hope they are best friends!

Eddie whistled and this is their expression...

My big boy... we are still trying to lose the pacifier. I am finding that he wants to chew on everything he comes in contact with, including fingers!

My Carter man made his very first basketball shot tonight... future baller!

Eddie said, "Make it rain", and....

He did :)!

Love my sweet kiddos :)!!!

Don't Blink

Another month has come and gone WAY TOO FAST! I seriously can't believe my Will is 21 months old... I have already been thinking about his 2nd birthday party that will be here before we know it!

Eddie went out of town a couple of weeks ago and one night after I put him to bed, I came in my bedroom and turned on his monitor to hear him singing Jesus Loves Me :); it was a moment that I will treasure always. He is starting to be very independent and curious lately. He has also made a major effort with his little brother lately, which makes Eddie and I so proud; I will post some pictures of the sweet brothers later!

He got a hair cut, or should I say head peel, yesterday. He is really cute, but I am ready for it to grow out again :).
My friend, Ashley, took this picture of Will on NYE at the Gapen's! We had such a blast hanging out with everyone; thanks so much for having us, Chris and Erin! We had a blast.

Will and daddy... they are big buddies!

Before church one day... we are working on losing the pacifier. He USUALLY only takes it at nap time and bedtime right now. I really want to lose it before his 2nd birthday. Tips are GREATLY APPRECIATED!

I love this picture!

Hotty Toddy... Cotton Bowl Champs!

My wonderful friend, Jess, got the boys these buckets for Christmas; Aren't they ADORABLE! Will likes to be dragged around the house in his and he also likes to put toys in it and carry it around! Thanks so much, Jess!!!

So, a couple of weeks ago I had a baby and now he suddenly Carter wants to grow up. He is almost pulling up, somewhat trying to crawl and loves to sit up and play with toys and his brother. He is such a little babbler and I really think he is close to saying MOMMA... Eddie thinks no, but I don't think it will be long before he will be yelling for me all the time :)! He is a joy to be around... my little angel!!!

Here is Carter in his bucket... Thanks Jess; it is too cute!

CUTE little rebel... I could just kiss his cheeks all day long!

Sweet baby boy!

Play time in his crib

Those baby blues get me every time!!!

I am so blessed to have this playful, precious boy!

I LOVE my little boys :)!

YAY, Santa!

We had such a wonderful Christmas day!!! Our boys were so much fun; Carter just kind of took everything in and Will was a sight this year. When he saw all of the presents, he started clapping and saying "YAY" :)! It has been quite a challenge capturing every moment on camera this year since we have two.

I told Will that he and Carter must have been good boys this year and he said "YEAH!". It was a lot of fun watching them.

Here is what Santa left for my sweet little guys!

Will was really excited to see Handy Manny and his tools; he loves Handy Manny.

Again!

Carter got a monkey that is his size :)... he snuggled with him for a while

Will was excited about Carter's monkey also...

I was taking Carter for a little spin on the turtle and Will gave me a sweet hug... he was one excited and precious little boy!

He was ready to open Handy Manny and puts him and his tools in his backpack, along with his flashlight Flicker.

Carter said enough of these presents... I need some applesauce and cereal :). My baby Carter's first Christmas was great. He is an angel and I look forward to many more!

Will made lots of loops around our house...

Daddy and Carter were ready for a nap!

After the boys took a nap, we went back to Booneville to eat at my parents with the Anglins and the Horns. We had a lot of fun.

Carter and his mamaw :)

Will was into everything and had a ball playing with the big kids and Cash.

My parents with my boys before bed... we had to bring Flicker so that Will would get in the picture!

Daddy and Carter

The next morning, Cash and Amy came over for chocolate and biscuits and Cash got to feed Baby Carter a bottle; he was so excited. He told him momma that he was going to feed his baby brother biscuits and bottles when he is born :). We shall see...

Yesterday afternoon, we finally made our way home for good. Eddie and I enjoyed being at home with the boys and probably had more fun with their toys than they did.

My mom got Carter a new highchair... he is a cutie!

They are playing with Carter's new Laugh and Learn farm... this was a hit for both of them. Will has really enjoyed playing with Carter's toys, as well as his.

Twins.. I think Carter looks just like Eddie!

I love this picture.. Peek A Boo!

Eddie and I played basketball with Will; we had a lot of fun!

We finally got Manny's Repair Shop up... Will didn't really know what to think of it at first, but loved when we moved it into his room. I think it will be a lot of fun outside when it warms up!

Carter got in on the action!

We had an awesome Christmas all the way around... we are thankful that Will got a new toybox because we NEED IT! We are so blessed to have our precious boys and can't wait to have lots more fun with the new toys!

I hope everyone has a Happy New Year next week!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was a busy, blessed day for the Chittom Family. We had the Downs Family Christmas at Eddie's parents house at 2:00 that day. All of Eddie's cousins have kids, as well, and it was fun watching them interact. Neither of my boys had a very good nap that day, so we were a little ill at points, to say the least, but they managed to have a great time.



Here are some pictures:



This is Eddie's Uncle Robert and Reba; they love our boys!

Carter was meeting his sweet cousin Camie. It looks like he is yawning, but he was really talking to her. They had fun with one another!

Carter with his cousin Perry Katherine

Will and Papaw Chittom; he got a guitar from Papaw and Nana! He was SO excited and entertained the crowd for a while; we might have a future musician on our hands!

Carter LOVED opening presents... I really didn't expect him care about much this year, but he was too sweet.

Our family; we wish that we could have taken more than one, but when you are on the go all day, you take what you can get :). I LOVE LOVE LOVE my boys!

The picture below reminds me of Eddie... entertaining the crowd! My handsome little boy!

Eddie's mom really wanted a picture of all of her grandbabies; we did the best we could :)! See below!

From the time I was born, or at least as long as I can remember, the Stennett family has gathered at my grandfather's house, RC Stennett. I consider myself to be so blessed to member a of the Stennett family. As one of six grandchildren, I can remember how anxious we always were for our mom and aunts to clean the dishes after we finished supper so that we could open presents, but more than that, it has always been so wonderful to spend time with people that you love. This tradition got passed down to great-grandchildren, as well, and I am happy to say that Will got to experience it two years and Carter one.

He went on to be with the Lord in February. We celebrated at his house one last time and we tried to make it the best ever. It was hard to leave his house for the last time. I treasure the precious memories and look forward to making more with our family. Pa will live on in our hearts forever and I know he had a wonderful Christmas with the good Lord!

Here is a picture of him from Christmas 2008.

We did not get a repeat picture this year, but here is a picture of my mamaw and all of the great-grandchildren from Christmas 2008.

Sweet family!

My aunt Wanda and Corbin. He told me Santa was going to bring him so "BIG" toys :).

My precious nephew, Cash

We went to my parents house later on and opened presents. Will got a "Flicker" flashlight from the cartoon Handy Manny... let's just say it was a hit!

Carter had a rough night; he is normally in bed by 8:15 or so and was over it by this point; babies are such little creatures of habit and mine get so messed up when their routines are off!

Before the presents were opened, he loved playing with his big cousin, Brandon

My mom opening a present
We got home a little after 11:00 that night and put out all of their toys; all I can say is what some blessed little boys to have so many people that love them. Thank you EVERYONE for all of our presents; we love them!
We had a GREAT Christmas Eve! Christmas Day pictures will follow soon!!!
