Crawler

It's been a little crazy around our house for the past couple of weeks... We officially have a crawler on our hands! She is into everything and anything and especially loves to play with Buster's food, splash in his water, eat my phone, and chew anything else that is not a baby toy. No, she hasn't eaten his food!

She also already knows how to dial 911. I was a tad embarrassed when they called back and I had to tell them my 8 month old figured out how to call them:)

Halloween

Here they are... our ladybug and cowgirl!

Before Addison went to bed last night, she wanted to wear her tutu and flower clip.

So if you don't have kids and you are wondering what your Friday nights will look like after kids, here you go:

We wouldn't have it any other way!

Pumpkin Town 2010

We went for a quick visit to Pumpkin Town today! Addison was not at all interested in taking a picture, but thankfully Emma cooperated after she got up from her nap!

That is a big pumpkin, Mommy!

Cutie Patootie

Emma's trying to figure out how to start crawling. She gets up and rocks but can't quite figure it out yet. I have to say, being the second child and all... I'm really ok with Emma taking her sweet time!

Already bothering big sis:)

Nana and Poppa's Visit

Well, Nana and Poppa's 10 day trip has come and gone and boy, did it go by quickly! The girls enjoyed every minute and kept Nana and Poppa very busy while they were here!

I LOVE this Elefun game. I got it at JBF for $3 ($20 brand new) and then spent $1 to make butterflies out of tissue paper. I made a ton and Addison had a ball trying to catch them!

This just melts my heart...the special bond between Addison and her Poppa!

Our attempt at a picture with the girls. Emma cooperated.

I got a workout trying to make Addison laugh to get her to smile but nothing worked. And I tried!

I bet Nana is already missing these chubby thighs...
... and sweet smile!

And just to brag that I have the BEST in-laws in the whole world, they even got up with Emma one night at 1am and by the time I heard her make a noise and went in her room, Nana had been up with her for 45 minutes and was putting her back to bed! Thanks for everything, Mom and Dad! We miss you already!

Our Getaway!

We got away for a couple of days this week! It started at this Bed and Breakfast in Eureka Springs, AR. Next, we did a lot of shopping!

And finally, we ended at the new zipline in Branson, MO, the longest in the US!

Ready to go!

You practice way up at the top of the mountain on a baby zipline in the middle of the woods. No big deal. Then, this is the FIRST line you go on-3300 feet long and 350 feet in the air!?!? It was a little windy (which slows you down), so Scott and I didn't make it all the way to the end! The guide came out to help me, but I told him next time I got stuck, I would pull myself to the end:) And it did happen again:)
Looking back up.

That's me!

Scott:

If you are in the Branson area, I would suggest just doing their "Extreme" Zipline. It is only the first, higher/longer zip lines with all of the great views!

Uncle B and Tara's Visit

Uncle B and Tara came this past weekend. Addison enjoyed every minute with them!

Tara giving Addison a tattoo.

Addison took to her immediately!

Playing the guitar with Uncle B!
