Our weekend

First off, I am so glad fall is here. Oh how we missed you. Do you think maybe you could stay awhile? I would love to drink my hot tea without sweating.

Happy Birthday to our dear friend Lincoln. Little L your party was awesome. Your mommy worked so hard to throw her "chunky monkey" the perfect party. Ava and I had a blast. Thanks for letting us bounce.If you like to talk to tomatoes, If a squash can make you smile.....
My girl loves to do both. Bob and Larry, you are her favorite. She loved getting to see you live. She danced, clapped, and jumped for you. Her favorite song you guys played was the hair brush song. Oh where is my hair brush, oh where is my hair brush.....she is secretly hoping her hair will grow a little faster and she will be actually able to use a hair brush. Thanks for the great night Bob and Larry. She can't wait to see you again.
We were glad Andee and Aubree could go. We think Aubree is going to be a big fan too!The girls can't wait to jam to their new CDs. What is better than Veggie Tales Worship and 80s songs?

Playing along....

Thought I would play along with Debra and take a close-up of my girl this weekend. I love photographing my Little Miss. Hope you enjoyed looking!

Independence

We all long for it and eventually we get it. Then I secretly think we want to give it back! I would love someone to feed and cloth me, but hey I had my time.

Little Miss is longing for independence. I wish she could see that one day she will be so tired and want her mommy's help. It started with eating. She wants to put it on the fork or use her fingers to bring it to her mouth herself. Ok ! Not a problem until your in Olive Garden and she can't seem to grasp how to get the spaghetti on the fork. Thank God she knows how to use those hands even if we did have one big mess.

Yesterday, daddy thought it seemed quite and went to search Little Miss out. She was in her room trying to get her shoes on. She accomplished her goal sort of. Now we need to work on teaching her to get them on the right feet.

Today, this is where I found her.
Yikes, she now wants to dress herself. She loves wearing my shoes around the house, but really I don't think she needs to wear these. At least not until it is her own undies. This funny girl seriously cracks me up. I mean laughing. Laughing hard everyday!(Don't worry, it was a clean basket of clothes!)

Fall is coming!

At least I hope. I am ready for some cooler weather where I can wear my cute new jeans and not sweat. Fall has come at our house. I wish you could smell the spiced cider scent I am burning. Aww, Fall is near. This is where I need your help. I am making an arrangement for my entry and I want to know what you think. Sticky things or no sticky things, that's the big question??Thanks for your help!

Wednesday. Oh Wednesday

Oh how we love you Wednesday. It is our favorite day of the week! (Of course excluding weekends!) It is our favorite for so many reasons. For me it is because I am off work. For Ava it is Little Gym. For our tummies it is supper time. Many of you know our Wednesday night tradition is going to Pappasitos for half price fajita night. I am talking under 20 bucks. Score! We love it. (Mostly me, if I were completely honest!) I am about to give you our big Wednesday secret. Don't you hate the long waits at Pappasitos? What if I told you that you did not have to? Call ahead seating. Yes, they offer that! What could be better than no waits and a cheap meal?

This Wednesday we changed our routine. We went to Pappas instead for all you can eat lobster! Can I get a big amen!
Oh Wednesday....I really love you! Can't wait for you to come again!

I mean really, who wouldn't? Especially when your mom buys you their yummy popcorn and lets you eat the whole bag!
