It's been a pretty tiresome weekend for us. Vanessa has been feeling sick the past few days and so she got a lot of rest this weekend. Gideon has been his usual self, and I've been busy with sports. On Saturday we put up our Christmas Tree and Gideon can't stay away from it. He loves playing with the Superman ornament. I took a few pictures from this weekend. So have a look at them. I have some other photos to post soon, but it will probably be tomorrow before I get them up. Hope everyone has a great day.

Yes, it's true! I am an Olympic Champion. As you can see I have won the silver medal. Okay so I didn't really win an Olympic medal. Monica Abbott, a former Lady Vol and pitcher for the US Olympic Team, stopped by our office for a photo shoot. I was the stand in guy while our photographer took pictures to get the lighting correct. It wasn't long after that Monica put the medal around my neck and then handed me the American flag. It was truly a patriotic moment for me....and for Americans in general. So for ten minutes I was an Olympic Medalist. We took a lot of fun shots, including a shot of me hypnotizing my boss. Just one of the many perks of being in sports. Check out the rest of the pictures.

I took a few pictures last night after Gideon had a bath and thought I would post them this morning. He's been a good boy the past few days. In fact Gideon has gone two nights without his pacifier. Usually at bedtime we give him his pacifier to help him get to sleep. His old pacifier was getting...well...old and worn out and so we had him throw it away because we told him it was "broken." Now when it is bedtime we have to remind him that he threw it away and that it was "broken." It's not been easy, but he's doing better. I hope that this will be the first step in helping him do other things, like using the potty. It's a work in progress, but he'll do well. Anyways, that's all I've got for now. Hope everyone has a great day.

I'm a little early this week with photos and news so I'm proud of myself. I'm disappointed to say that I didn't get any pictures of Gideon in his Halloween outfit. I couldn't find the camera until the next day, so I am pretty aggravated about that. But I do have two pictures of Gideon in one of the new shirts we bought him this weekend. So that should be good for everyone. I actually took them this morning. I think he looks cute. Not much else happened news wise this weekend. This coming weekend, Nan 'T' and Papa Walker are going to come up for Homecoming against Wyoming. Let's home UT comes away with a win before going into the bye-week to prepare for Vandy. Well that's all I've got for now. Hope everyone has a a great week and get out and vote tomorrow. (And when I say vote, I mean for McCain/Palin!) But vote whoever you want.



*UPDATE*
I just got a photo from Aunt Bev of Uncle Charles at the Titans game. Looks like life is good for him. (By the way, the women are Titans' Cheerleaders.)

It's Halloween time here at the Walker House and last night we finally carved our pumpkins. Gideon had fun but wanted to play with the carving knives. Of course we didn't let him. We all had a good time and I now have to give respect to my dad because carving pumpkins is not easy work. I carved the pumpkin that looks like Spongebob Squarepants and Vanessa carved the one that looks like a spider-web. Gideon was excited to see them this morning when we went to school. We're excited for Halloween to get here. For me it's just to eat whatever left over candy we have, and see Gideon in his Halloween costume. Well that's all I've got for now. Oh, and the Kansas shirt is a hand-me-down. Hope everyone has a great week.

Sorry for taking so long in posting photos and news, but I've been very, very, very busy lately. Things have been crazy around work, so I haven't had an opportunity to post anything. So today I'm posting the photos that Uncle Charles sent me, or at least some of the photos. I didn't want to post them all. I'm also posting photos that Nan 'T' took when she came up to stay before going to Jonesborough. Here's an update of Gideon. Some of you know that he was feeling sick this past weekend and even jammed (we think) his big toe. Well he is feeling a lot better now and is back to walking again. For a few days he wouldn't walk because his toe was hurting him so bad. He's running around fine now. Well that's all for the time being. I'll try to post more when I get the opportunities. Hope everyone has a great day.

It's been another fun weekend for the Walker family. This weekend we had Uncle Charles and Aunt Bev along with Nan 'T' and Papa Walker come visit us. Now I can reveal what my big surprise for Uncle Charles was. I took Uncle Charles down on the field to watch the pregame events on Saturday. He was pretty excited and he got to take a lot of photos while he was down there. In fact I took his picture with Tee Martin standing next to him. Tee was really nice about it. Hopefully Uncle Charles will send me all of his photos so I can post them soon. He even had a prime spot to take pictures of the team running through the T. At one point while we were down there, Tennessee's punter kicked the ball near us and Uncle Charles ran over to get it for the manager. So you can see a picture of Uncle Charles trying out for quarterback below. We had a great time on the field and I was able to show him some of the new work they had done on the stadium and near the locker room. I was impressed with Uncle Charles for standing out in the hot sun for a long while. I was getting worn out and he was still trucking along. I must be out of shape! But all in all, we had fun and Aunt Bev got to see her first UT game at Neyland Stadium. Nan 'T' and I took a lot of pictures while they were in. Nan 'T' wanted to play the Wii and show Uncle Charles how to play, so he took a crack at it. He bowled better than Nan 'T' did! They also had a good time with Gideon. He showed out for them and even took a few pictures. So take a look and guess which ones he took. He was really sad when Nan 'T' and Papa Walker had to leave. He didn't want them to go and even cried after them when they drove away. Speaking of Gideon, the little guy isn't feeling so well. Vanessa is planning on picking him up a little early from school today because he has a little cough and some sniffles. I'm sure he'll get to feeling better soon. I put some pants and a jacket on him this morning because it was cold, so take a look at the picture I took of him this morning. Well that's about all I've got for now. Enjoy the pictures and I hope I have more to show later.
