Neighborhood Party

Trunks all decorated for "trunk or treating"
My sweet Minnie Mouse
My best attempt at a Mickey/ Minnie Shot. Notice the cookie and cupcake in both pictures! Caleb ate so much I thought he was going to throw up! Every time I saw him he had at least 2 suckers and a new cookie/ cupcake!
Yep still eating





Pre Halloween Festivities

Pumpkin Patch day at school. I did pretty well on the outfit if it withstood this!
No its not floodin' its just the way he's standing!
Costume day at Little Gym! We thought we'd rest Mickey since we've been unsuccessful in getting him to wear it so far and we still have 3 more things to wear it to. So he decided to dress as Dada for Little Gym.
Instead of Pumpkin rolling, Caleb kicked it like a ball.
Here's a little preview for Halloween

Future Tiger cheerleader

We were watching the LSU game and Kennedy was laying there with her head turned all the way to the side and squealing like crazy at the TV! Caleb thought it was so crazy that he could see Sissy on the camera and was helping me film. I think she's going to be like her Momma and be a big Tiger fan! (She really doesn't have much of a choice) We start em young around here :)

Children's Museum with Lewis Family

The Lewis family was passing through Memphis to go visit Beck in Nashville and stopped in to play. So we took them to the Children's Museum to run around and hopefully wear Bennett out for the rest of their drive. We were so glad to get to see them. Bennett is 2 days younger than Caleb and they are finally old enough to play together! Caleb had so much fun with "Dennett"! I think these two will be double trouble one day
Caleb was checking out the cute little girls too.
I've been trying to steer Caleb awaf from this thing because I'm afraid he's going to get stuck half way up but thank goodness he can only get up 2 so far. It won't be long before he's going all the way up and then back down!
Caleb is big into "shireshucks" right now!
"Sissy pants" just along for the ride like usual
Bennett dressed up for "feetball"
Caleb loves hula hooping and really gets after it sometimes!
Lindsey took this picture of Tyler and I and I thought it was cute. We don't really have many like this these days (just ignore the dirty diaper!)
We were so glad to get to see and visit with them! One of these days we'll be back and get to hang out more!

A typical day in my life...

Since I spend most of my days by myself with the kids, I take lots of pictures and send them out as texts with stories to share with my mom, sister, Tyler and whoever else. This happens at least once a day. I'm waiting for the thanks but no thanks talk when they get tired of all my texts. So here are a couple of the ones I've sent out this past week.

So we are back to fighting to go to bed. I was trying to get him down for a nap and after awhile, I ignored the screaming because I was trying to finish his pumpkin outfit. All of a sudden I hear the babygate at his door crash down and he comes running around the corner like this!
Well naturally I grab my phone to take a pic and send it to Tyler. As I'm sending the text I hear "sssss" He pee'd on the rug! Here was the battle scene. His shirt, shorts, diaper, shoes and baby monitor all thrown over the crashed gate!
He tooted in the tub and thought it was hilarious! This is him pushing with all his might to squeeze out another one! Thank Goodness he didn't squeeze out something else!
Another bedtime fight. All of a sudden I hear pitter patter in the kitchen and look to see him peaking around the corner.
A child after my own heart! He did all but pick the cheese bowl up and lick it!
eating his "No nuts" on the way to the pumpkin patch!
Loving the jumpy jump at church
His toes are even pointed
Daddy's at work so we decided to go get a treat after dinner.
Going...
Going...
Gone!!
I hear "hat hat" and come out to see Caleb running around with a bra he got out of my drawer on his head!
Just swinging in Sissy's swing with her paci
Here he was getting pissed at his cup because the straw wouldn't reach the juice at the bottom and he couldn't get it out. His teacher told me today when I picked him up that at lunch he handed her the cup mad and said what's this? She thought he didn't like the juice, but he was really just mad at the cup.
He's discovered the doggy door again but now knows how to take the cover off.
Here's his outfit I worked forever on! Next time I know to just follow the directions I'd printed off. Oh well. This is the best picture I've gotten so far. Kennedy is like "oh dear God please don't let him jump this way!!"
No two days are ever alike and never has a day gone by that our house is not filled with laughter! This kid is to blame for the laugh lines on my face! And I will never fill them with botox because so many great memories created them!!
I ask him daily why are you so cute! And tell him constantly I love you so much followed by kisses, tickles and hugs! If kissing your babies too much gives them a complex later in life then watch out because my kids are going to have issues! I'm totally addicted to kissing them to death, hugs, smiles and most of all hearing them laugh!
Caleb and Kennedy: Always know that your Mommy loves you very much and that you are what makes my day so bright each and every day!
