Decorating with Daddy

This little girl loves her penguins!!

Hello little friend!!! 

And she loves her 7 foot tall santa too!

  

Fun with a flashlight and a hat...

And just a random one...I love how Quinn looks all flustered but keeps on giving kisses...

 

Ainsley kisses to make Daddy laugh

This just cracks both of us up.  Little girl loves big ol' sloppy kisses!!

I haven't taken a ton of pictures lately...

so my options are limited.  But I did get some cute ones of Quinn and Ainsley. 

She still reads to herself all the time and I know you've seen a picture like this before but she is just so funny when she does it so here's another one.

Oh, and this one is just too cute...

 

And now little girl looks something like this....minus the pillows and she is actually in her crib...

and I am on my way to bed too.  Night night!!
 

There was a birthday gremlin at Michael's party...

So we went to the Inn for Michael's surprise 40th birthday party and we ran into a little birthday gremlin.

There she is lying in wait to jump out at the next passerby.

Really, those were taken Halloween morning which was the morning after the big party but Nick put the hat on her head and she didn't even know it was there.  Here are some pics of her in her little party dress.  She loves her Grammy.

And her Daddy.

Ok...I've got some different pics to put up.  The first bunch are part of the great Beefaroni battle.  Hey, there is a serving of vegetables in there you know.  Actually, this was a "spoon" lesson.  I didn't help her one bit with this dinner and I think she's figuring it out.  HA!

She looks like she's got great form...

Oh.  Wait.  I think I see the problem now...

And here's our little outdoor baby.  She just loves to be outside.

And our little artist.

And story teller.

She's a pumpkin gutter too.

But one thing she is not....she is NOT going to have her picture taken in a pumpkin.

 

Happy Halloween!

Told you I was going to have monkeys...

 

Random camera dump

Reading after bathtime.  She likes to do it herself now but she'll still crawl up on our laps and let us read to her from time to time.  Or actually, just hold the book while she turns the pages.

Our lovely fall foliage...oh, yes.  That is SNOW!!!  So exciting!!

So it was time to pull out the new winter hat.

Then the wild woman who was all sugared up at daycare today finally simmered down long enough to take a bath and she just loves bathtime.

Blowing bubbles...

She's been watching Quinn eat...

And now I think I am going to head to bed because this little girls has been up about 5 times a night for the last 5 nights and I am beat.  Night nights!

AppleJacks Orchard

Here are some pics for you Mama.  Things went better this time around but it was sooooo cold!!

All bundled up and ready to go!

First, the hay maze.

Then it was time to feed the goats.

And have my picture taken with Uncle Timmy and Becky.

Then it was time for our very own personal hay wagon ride to the pumpkin patch!!  Yay!!

"THAT'S IT!!!"

Can't wait to show Daddy my pumpkin!

Hayride back...so pleased with herself.

And finally, her very first sugar cookie from Becky.

 

And now she is passed out and snoring.  Thanks for the fun Uncle Timmy and Becky!!  I loved it!  xoxo

Here's the story....of a little girl....who really didn't like the pumpkin patch

and yes, I was singing the theme song to the Brady Bunch as I wrote the title.  Try it.  It's catchy.  Anywho, short version of a long story.  We went to Canada a last weekend to go to the pumpkin patch.  Who would have guessed that in Canada, apple orchards are really ONLY apple orchards and there are no pumpkins in sight?  Not I.  So almost two and a half hours later we arrive at Bankers.  Guess what?   They don't have a pumpkin patch either.  But they did have a pile of pumpkins.  I thought....it's better than nothing.  Well, Ainsley wanted nothing to do with the petting zoo or the pumpkins.  When Michael tried to hand her a little pumpkin you would have thought it was a porcupine.  Anyway, I did get some pictures so I will put some up.  And tomorrow, keep your fingers crossed, that she likes the new real pumpkin patch Uncle Timmy and Becky want to bring her to.

In that picture she looks like all is well.  But the next two show her true feelings of the outing.

Then she finally picked a pumpkin but wouldn't hold it when Michael gave it to her.

Cheese.

And totally on a different subject because I just found these pittiful pictures...the first time Ainsley rode facing forward in her car seat.  For the record...not a fan.

Daddy buckling her in.

Not so sure...

Ummm....Daddy!!!  Where are you going?   Don't you know I am facing the wrong way?  Don't panic. Don't panic.  Don't panic...

Ok....maybe I should panic because we are starting to move!!!

I want to go home!!!!

She's gotten much better, I promise!!  Poor kiddo!
