Guest Bath Before

Guest Bath After

Ok so here is the house. We arrived and closed on Monday the 19, went immediately to the house to get started with what we wanted to change. As you can see in the pictures below the dining room had a paper boarder at the top and the living room was RED. It took three coates of primer to get the red covered but we did it. The guest bath was completely wall paper and we took it all down, textured the wall and painted. Dinning Room Before

Way Behind

Lets start with graduation. It is official Jason is now Dr. Gipson. It seems just like yesterday that we were new in Lubbock and remember thinking that the next four years were goint to go by so slow. Here we are with him about to start residencey and we have a little one. We are so proud of Jason. I know that things have not been easy but he has done so well.

I don't know if I will step foot in this surgeons office. Fun med school friends. Jared, Jo and Matt.

10 Months

I can not believe that in two months I will have a ONE year old. I guess I need to start thinking about a party. Maddison is growing like a weed. She is also going through that stage where no one can hold her but her mom. I was telling Jason tonight that sometimes that can be real annoying but most of the time it is the best feeling in the whole world. Just unexplainable. Here are just a few new pictures, I need to take the official 10 month picture just have been busy with the while packing thing, Thats all for now, have a great day!

Chocolate all over the mouth, hands and bow.

Getting Organized

I have no clue why these pictures are so messed up but this is what Jason and I did all day. The packing process has been going on for quiet a while. Today Jasons mom Betty kept Maddison while we got down to business. We are having a moving company move us but we have to have everything packed and ready to go. We will also not be here when the movers come. Thankgoodnes we have family that will be here. We wanted to make sure that everything gets on the truck so we came up with the color coating and number system. We think we have everything accounted for I guess we will see when they unload the truck in Tyler. Only 9 days left here in Amarillo and 84 boxes later.

Powder

The pictures explain a lot. I guess every child has a powder incident. This is what I found when I walked in the door from running an errand. Jason was just around the corner but... need I say more. "Mom, I was just trying to help. Isn't this the way you usually do it"?
While we were in Abilene, Paw was trying to fix his backdoor. Maddison was trying to tell him to just get a new one, it would be a lot less work.

9 Month Appointment

We went to Maddisons 9 month appointment today and something quite funny happened. As the nurse was taking her highth she went to write it in the chart and turned back to measure again. Our doctor was standing there and here is how the conversation went:

nurse: that can not be right, that is the hight of an average two year old

doctor: o yes, you see mom here is tall, but have you seen dad he is around 6'5

nurse:yes I was correct the first time, (as she turns to look at me) you have a very long baby.

We were sad that this was our last time to see our doctor here in Amarillo. She has been there since the beginning and has really enjoyed watching Maddi grow. We are headed to a-town for our family reunion. I am sure I will have lots of pictures. Take care!

We had a really busy weekend. Our garage sell went great. It was a lot of work and we are very glad that it is over. We made enough money to purchase us a refrigerator, paint for the new house, the movers, and gas to get to Tyler. My parents also came up for the Last time. The next time they come to see us we will be in east Texas. I am sure they were glad to get out of our house because due to all the boxes and packing process our house looks like a tornado came through. We also sold our couch and big chair so there was not much to sit on except the good ol' hard wood floor. We took a little time to take a few pictures. As you can see Maddi is right in the middle of a wave. Have a good one!
