A new little lovie for Gracie


Gracie took her nap today and put herself to sleep while snuggling with her new little silkie from Ms. Kirsten. Hopefully this will become one of her new favorite lovies to help her sleep a little bit better at night! Here she is sleeping with "silky." Isn't she sweet?

An Ice Cream Birthday Party


On Sunday we also got to go to our good friend Aurelia's birthday party. There was a fun playground and we got to have some delicious Amy's ice cream and cake! Here is a picture of us with Aurelia (wearing one of her birthday presents) and her cousin McKenna. Happy Birthday Aurelia!

A Bowling Birthday Party



On Sunday, we went to my good friend Rocco's birthday party. It was great to see him again because now that we are both in kindergarten at different schools, we really don't see each other much at all. Adam was very happy to see Corrina too! It was a lot of fun bowling at the party. Happy Birthday Rocco!

Pumpkin Carving




Once we got our pumpkins home, we all pitched in and carved them. Mommy cleaned out all the seeds, Adam and I helped to draw designs on the pumpkins and then Daddy carved them. Then when they were all finished, we lit a candle in each one so it would glow. We can't wait for Halloween to be here!

Happy Fall Y'all!



Today we went to the pumpkin patch. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed selecting our very own pumpkins. We even picked out some little ones for Gracie.

Bringing some Halloween cheer!


Today, I got to go to a local nursing home in my Halloween costume. Mommy couldn't go because she had to stay home with Alex but I was able to go with Miss Andrea and my good friend Adrienne. Here is a picture of me with a few of my buddies at the party. The folks sure did enjoy seeing all of us in our costumes. We were a bit shy around them but they didn't seem to mind. They even gave us a few candy treats! Yummy! In case you were wondering, I am dressed up as Woody from Toy Story.

It's a Hoedown!




Every year at my school they have a big carnival called the "Hoedown." We kids get to go and have a great time playing games, riding ponies, jumping in moonwalks, riding trains and dunking our teachers in the dunk tank. All of the proceeds go to our school. Adam and I were very good and won lots of prizes. Mommy was working the cotton candy booth at the end of the day and we had to leave early because we were being overwhelmed by bees! They could not stay away from all the sweet stuff. It was a super fun day and we can't wait for it to come again next year!

Crowe's Nest Farm






We got to go to Crowe's Nest Farm with some friends from our MOMS club. It was so much fun and I really enjoyed seeing all the animals - especially the pigs. They were HUGE! There was a demonstration of milking a cow, some turtles to watch and even a pumpkin patch to walk through. There were all kinds of birds, animals and even snakes and lizards. There was a fun hay ride that I enjoyed. Unfortunately, Gracie cried and was very frightened by the whole hay ride experience. She enjoyed the rest of the day though!

A visit from the Tooth Fairy


Last night I lost my very first tooth! I was able to wiggle it out all by myself. Daddy couldn't even do it but I could! I was very excited about losing my tooth. I left it under my pillow and the Tooth Fairy brought me a one dollar bill. Thank you Tooth Fairy. Here is a picture of me after my tooth came out. You can see the new tooth already poking through the gum.

Just swingin'



We went to the park last week and Grace had her first ride in the swing. She really enjoyed it.

Big Brother, Little Sister


Now that Grace is getting a little bit bigger, it is easier for me to hold her. I am so glad!
