Almost a walker

Blakely we bought you some Mooshu trainers and you absolutely love them. They are somewhat annoying, but they are helping you gain confidence with your walking. When we were at US Pizza you would let go of my hand and start walking around the restaurant all by yourself. I'm sure it helped that you had a big audience. We are so proud that our little squeaker is gaining confidence to be an independent walker.

Lights of the Ozarks

We went to the Fayetteville lighting of the square and parade on Saturday night with the Nutt family. You were amazed by the floats, the fun cars that came by and of course Santa. You keep looking down the street to see what was next. The batteries on my camera died so I didn't get any pictures of you with the Christmas lights, only a few of you waiting for the parade to start.

Am I a Dog?

Blakely you have been hiding out in our dogs kennel. You think it is so fun to hang out and close the door. I finally decided to close the cage so you can't get in anymore. Hopefully you will find another hiding place in the house. Funny girl!!!

Fun in the leaves-Family Pics

We had a friend take our pictures today. I have to say it is kind of hard trying to get a 14 month old to sit still to take a family picture. Other than that Blakely had a fun time playing and trying to eat the leaves.

Trick or Treat

Blakely you had such a fun Halloween. Your friend Caroline had a party with all of your little friends. You had such a fun time playing and trick or treating. I have to say you were such a cute little flower. Your friends that were there were: Caroline, a little chick; Oliva Grace, Butterfly; Anna Kate, Leopard; Thomas, super Thomas; Sam, Lion. It was such a fun time. Thanks Keri and Jeff for hosting the party!I also included a picture of our front yard. It has been such a beautiful fall!!

14 Months Old

Blakey you are absolutely so much fun! We are still working on the walking thing. You will walk from me to daddy, but you just won't let go of anything else. I know you can do it! You love to talk-maybe you get that from your mommy. We understand most of the words that you do say. Dada and Dog are your favorite. You think that every male is Dada. You even were calling Bellas Barbie Ken doll Dada! You have pointed to your nose, mouth and eyes and say the words. You are all over the place and are starting to get very curious about what is in the cabinets and drawers. As you can see in one of the pictures, Blakey is attached to her blankee. Most of the pictures that I did take have her blanket in her mouth. We already have purchased two of them in case of emergency. We might need to get another one if the attachment to the blankee continues. We love you pea potters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Spinach!

Last week Blakely we gave you some cooked spinach. You couldn't get enough of that green stuff. You are such a good little eater.

Carving Pumpkin Party

We all went to the Greshams Pumpkin Carving Party this weekend. They are family members of Debbie and Mark. You had such a fun time. You wore your costume for a little while and weren't quite sure what to think of the petals around your head. You didn't take your eyes away as you watched all the big kids play games. Maybe next year you will be able to play some big kid games. It was very chilly so we stayed by the fire most of the time to keep you warm. We can't wait until Halloween next week so you can dress up with all your little friends.

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Pumpkin Patch on Saturday Blakely and you had the best time! We went with the Nutt family. You loved watching little miss Bella. The both of you had such a fun time riding in the wagon. I think you could have stayed out at the patch all day long. We got some great little pumpkins to decorate with. I am so glad you had a wonderful time and hope that you will learn to love fall as much as your mommy does. We love you little pumpkin!!!
