I've got the spirit! :0)

I am in the Christmas spirit! I would decorate today if I didn't think it would be a little tacky. I always try to wait until the day after Thanksgiving, but I am really in the mood this year! I will wait though.

I got a new camera! YEA! Target had a good sale on one yesterday and I couldn't resist. Gone are the days of having to hold the batteries in to take a picture! That is exciting to me.

Hannah has been a handful lately! :0) She has been into everything. You may have noticed my "I love my toddler tornado" blinkie. I thought it fit perfectly. The other night I got the George Foreman grill out of the cabinet to make hamburgers. Hannah walked over to the cabinet and got in! It was funny. She played in the cabinet the whole time I cooked dinner. I know she is mine, but I think she is too cute!



Poor Bayley! Do you see her face? Hannah wants to be sweet, but she is not that gentle. LOL! They are going to be good friends one day - along with Lila. I find it humorous that Hannah talks to Bayley like we talk to her - in a high pitched voice. She will say "Hey Boo-boo." Tina always says that to Bayley and apparently Hannah picked it up. Now I find myself saying it too.



Hannah loves to sit on the chaise now and watch television. I think she likes the chaise because she can climb up there by herself. She looks like such a big girl!



Look at my little Auburn Tiger! I think she looks just like Clay in the picture. She helped me cheer for Auburn, but we must have not cheered loud enough Saturday! All of you know we got stomped, but maybe that will make us hungry for elephant meat!



There is not much happening around our house. Hunting season starts this week and Josh is excited. Hannah has to go Saturday to get her flu shot and then we are taking Hannah, Addi, Levi, and Lila to have their Christmas picture made. That should be interesting. Getting all of them to smile at the same time will probably be a challenge. It should be fun - as long as it is better than last time! Anyway, I am waiting on Bayley to get here and I need to put a roast in the crock pot. Hope everyone has a good week!

Happy Tuesday!

It is Tuesday and Bayley is here. However, I am still finding time to blog! Bayley is peacefully sleeping and Hannah is eating breakfast. So, I thought I would get on the computer and let all of my girls know that I saw something exciting on television last night! October Road is coming back on!!! It will be on in three weeks on Monday night. I thought it had been canceled but apparently not. Yippee!

Anyway, I did forget to mention several important things in my last post. I just had so much to say that I forgot to say "Happy Late Anniversary" to my husband. We have been married three years on October 23rd. He is the best husband and daddy!

Also, I forgot to tell everyone that my best friend, Brandi is going to have a baby. I had to keep it quiet for a while, but now she is telling everyone. (I hope she doesn't mind me blogging about it) I am so excited for her and Jason. They are going to be GREAT parents! Congratulations!

In "Hannah news"..... The other morning she got up early and I was laying on the couch under my blanket. She was sitting on top of my stomach. I had my eyes closed and I hear "one, two, three." I opened my eyes and sweet little Hannah is smiling and looking at me. So, I am thinking I didn't hear that right. I say "one.." and she finishes "two, three!" She is such a smart baby. I can't believe how much she has changed. She is also learning how to climb on everything! She can get on the chaise now without any help. She also LOVES the caterpillar rocker Michelle and Justin gave her for her birthday. She has learned how to rock on it very well. She gets a little wild sometimes. I see a bruise in the future from it, but she loves it. That bruise will just match all of the other ones she has lately!

I'M BACK!!

Did you miss me?? I am so excited that we have our computer back. Thank you to Daniel and Brian for helping us get back on track! It has been a month since I last posted and a lot has happened. We spent a few days in Gatlinburg for our first official family vacation since Hannah was born. We had a GREAT trip. Unfortunately, I lost the camera and do not have any pictures. :0( I have been having to use the old camera that I have dropped several times. I have to hold the batteries in to take a picture. It is sad but I must take pictures!

Anyway, I have lots of pics to share but I will try to catch everyone up as quickly as possible!

My niece, Lila Victoria was born on the 12th of October. She is SO sweet. Hannah can say Lila very well. She tries to take care of her, but poor baby she ends up in trouble because she is a little too rough. Lila is an angel. See the pictures. The one of her in the green blanket is a more recent picture, but she is already changing! I could just squeeze her and love on her all day! She has joined Hannah & I in Bible Class. She slept the whole time - I guess I am boring! :0)






Hannah is trying her best to learn how to eat with a spoon. These are the pictures of the first time she tried. She ended up holding the spoon in one hand and picking up the food in the other. She also likes to turn the bowl over onto her tray. Oh well, she will learn!





On the 27th, Josh, David, Alex, & I went to the Auburn vs. Ole Miss game. It was a lot of fun! We were in the nose bleeds and I thought I would pass out before we got to our seats but once we were up there it was GREAT! We were two rows from the top of the stadium. Auburn won, so that made it even more exciting. Auburn has ended up having a decent season so far. I was worried after the two loses but we have made a come back and look like a better team! We will see how the Georgia game goes this week!




Bradley, Emily, & Clay came over last week and carved pumpkins for Halloween. Clay didn't understand the pumpkin carving and refused to clean out his pumpkin. So, we let Bradley carve his when he got home from school. Emily did the skeleton face, I did the bat (I went the easy route this year), and Bradley did the haunted house. Bradley's was the best! He is very talented. It had a lot of detail and he did it in no time at all! I was impressed.



These pictures are of Hannah eating a Dum-Dum sucker. She LOVES suckers. I thought these were cute and wanted to share them with everyone. What a sweetie!




Hannah was a lady bug for Halloween! Isn't she cute?!! We had Trunk-or-Treat at church. Hannah had no idea what was going on but she loved running around the parking lot and holding on to pieces of candy. By the time, we got in the truck to come home she was asleep. She wore herself out and me too!




I think I have caught everyone up on the major details of the last month! I am glad to be back in the blogging world again. I missed you guys!
