Happy Fall!

This week we had 2 of our nieces stay with us while Freddy and Candy went on vacation! Today we went to Gross Farms for photo ops and some good fall fun like a corn maze, hot cider, and a hay ride. Note to self: Don't wait until the day before Halloween to go to the pumpkin patch. Another note to self: All those things I thought were free growing up, I'm now learning parents actually pay for that stuff! So with 4 of us not "kid price" the only fun to be had was walking around the very picked through pumpkins, then taking pictures at the entrance. Good thing we have a baby who didn't know any better and 2 very understanding nieces!




Then it was off to Kmart to buy nice looking pumpkins for some more photo ops at home.

"Talking"

bouncy chair + rings = ♥

Fall weather = Sweaters!

My mommy LOVES sweaters! This is my first sweater!

M.C. Escher-esque

Growing up I really liked artwork by M.C. Escher so when I saw this outfit, I had to get it just because it reminded me of that style.


Rockin' my new outfit on my rockin' moose! Thanks Auntie Jessica and GrandMar!!

My Little Pumpkin

Thank you Michelle for this warm, cuddly, and snuggly outfit!!!!

3 1/2 months

All pretty girls need pretty pants and a pretty pink bow!


I can't decide if I like the rings or my thumb better!


I'm a big girl! Doing push ups!

Bumbo...what a funny word

For MY birthday, Kaylee got a Bumbo seat! Funny how shopping for myself has gone out the window! This last week Kaylee has been doing sit ups when she is laying on her playmat or in my lap. She prefers to sit and is pretty good at holding her head up. So last night we bought a Bumbo at the kid's consignment shop in Apex. It also works really well when we Skype with Grandpa!

Happy Birthday Kate!

John treated me to a Chili's dinner for my birthday tonight! I had a coupon for a free dessert so we got the Paradise Pie...highly recommended! :) Kaylee was awake all dinner but was content to sit in her car seat and watch us eat.

A love-hate relationship

Who knew I'd ever be so excited about being successful at sucking snot from my child's nose. Kaylee is conflicted about it's use though. She hates to see it coming at her, does not like it being stuck in her nose, but then smiles when the booger is no longer in her nose. I'm sure it's a plight that most mothers experience...feeling guilty for forcing an object up your baby's nose, frustration with those super stuck boogers, and wishing you had smaller fingers to remove said boogers. But all in all, we're fortunate to not have to use the aspirator all that often.
