My Grumpy Chicken

Sorry but this photo didn't get added in the last post.

Happy Halloween

I was feeling guilty today because I wasn't going to dress the girls up. I thought I only have one chance for the first Halloween photo. I ran out to look for costumes on sale. I found a zebra and a chicken, both costumes were $12.00. Yahoo! I even bought costumes for next year. I won't tell you what they are going to be next year.
Now on to the photos. Presley grabbed Brooke's costume and pulled Brooke down and that ruined the whole mood for Brooke. She was MAD! As you can see in the photos. I only got a few pictures of Brooke and then we had to remove her costume. Presley loved her costume so I got a few of her. I will try tomorrow when Brooke is in a better mood. It was well worth the money to get the photos. A picture is worth a thousand words.I had to post this today because after all it is Halloween. Have a safe and Happy Halloween to all.

My Oh MY

This is Presley's newest trick, she loves to put her head down and crawl as she is pushing her head along the carpet . The things kids will do! Presley is starting to throw a little fit when she doesn't get her way. I need to nip that in the bud right away.
Now for Brooke, she climbs on the rocker and throws the Cd's on the floor. She has done this several times. I got smart and moved the rocker so she can no longer trash the place. The rocker is now put up because she wants to stand in it all the time and yes she has fallen off of the rocker and bumped her little head. She is such a Daredevil. My little babies are growing up. I wish they could stay babies just a little longer. I never thought I would say this but I am going to miss that baby stage.

New Hat and Mittens

I bought the girls a new hat and mittens for our morning walks so they can be toasty warm.
I do have to say so myself they are just the cutest girls. They kept them on long enough for me to get pictures and then they started grabbing at each others hats. ADORABLE!!!

More Pumpkin Patch



Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Pumpkin Patch today and man was it beautiful outside. The perfect day to go.
The girls had a blast. I want to go in the AM because I can get better photos and I also want ot dress them in some color. Now that I have been I have some ideas for pictures. I left my big lens at home and I think I would like to take it and get some photos from a distance. The pumpkins were picked over but we still found two we liked. I will definitely go earlier next year and it will be so much fun because the girls will be older. I have a few more pictures to share with you. I took so many and I need to delete a bunch. I sometimes have a problem deleting them.

Milestones

The girls are eating regular food. They are both great eaters. Presley will gobble her peas up really fast. She does the same thing with other foods. I think she really loves to do it herself. Brooke is also a good eater but she is a slower eater. It takes her a while to get her food in her mouth she drops a lot. But she loves all foods. She is not picky at all.
This morning we went for a walk and I bundled them up. Brooke took off her hat and blanket by the time I could run to get my camera. I found those hats in the dollar bin at Target. Brooke has the pumpkin hat and Presley has the black cat hat. Brooke doesn't like to leave her hat on but Presley doesn't bother with removing her hat. They are both so different but so special in their own little way. Brooke is standing alone a lot. Yesterday she took two little steps towards me. She is so adorable, she will stand alone and I will clap and she will start to laugh the cutest laugh. It melts my heart. Presley loves to dance, she will just start shaking her head from side to side.
The girls are a little better today. They still have runny noses but seem to be better. We went to the dentist I use to work for to visit yesterday. The girls had a ball and it was great to see everyone. I am so lucky to be able to stay at home with my wonderful children. Thank you Gary for allowing me to be with our children. It is such a blessing. The girls are taking a nap so I must go get some things done before they wake up.

New Stroller

We were suppose to do the Juvenile Diabetes walk on Saturday but the girls were sick again. I think it is another virus because I am now sick ugh! and Gary is out of town this week. We bought this new jogger for the walk and for our daily walks in the morning. It is so much easier to walk with this stroller than the other stroller. I can't believe the difference. The girls have to get use to it because they can't set up, they have to lay back. One more month and they will be 1 year old. Time has flown by, I can't believe my little girls will be one. I must go the girls are crying.

Little Faces

Presley was just the cutest thing when she was walking behind the walker. She couldn't stop laughing. Doesn't her face say it all? She will kill me later for posting this picture but I loved the look on her face. She is my little talker, she jabbers all day. I think I am in trouble with her because she is really becoming a Mamas girl. I notice it more when Gary is gone and I am the only one she wants. Brooke is starting to talk a little more but she is my little walker. She walks around everywhere with the walker and when she gets stuck she knows how to walk in front of it and start walking the other way with it. She has been standing alone and balancing for a short while. She is so ready to take off and walk. I better keep my video camera ready. I was thinking today how big they are getting and before too long they will not be babies anymore. Now I know why people want more children because they miss the baby stage. I have been missing my craft room. I have been too busy and tired to do anything lately. I did play with my cricket a little last night and am still lovin it.
I found out last week the LSS (Recollections) is closing. I am so sad, that store was my release sometimes. I loved to go there after I put the girls to bed and just visit with everyone and of course, shop. I am going to miss the whole atmosphere. Doesn't corporate understand what it means to those who are addicted to scrapbooking. I guess they don't or they wouldn't be shutting the doors. :( It will be a sad, sad day when the final day is here.

Birthday Girl


Here is a few photos from the birthday party I went to on Saturday night. My friend Chris turned 40. I wore my Tattoo shirt and it was a hit. As you can see in the photo it looks like you have tattoos all over your arms. Gary bought me this shirt when we went to Grapefest and we knew it would be a fun shirt. Happy 40th Birthday Chris.
You really know how to host a party.
