FALL...all in one!

Ok..so here is my entire fall wrapped up in one post...ready, set, go!

These are my pink boots and my favorite shoes for the fall/winter. Mom and Dad bought them over the summer and had to hide them from me until it was cold enough to wear them.







We went to pick out a pumpkin to carve and Mom helped me clean out the (gross) insides then Dad did the carving. I loved my pumpkin, whom we named "Jack" and was very upset when I found out we had to leave him outside. We had to check on him over the next several days and I said "Hi" to him whenever I walked past.



Daddy thought it would be a good creative outlet to paint some mini pumpkins while at Grandma's house. It was tons of fun and the best part was that the paint washed off and we could start all over again.



I enjoyed jumping in the bouncy house at the church Fall Festival. It was the first time I really enjoyed the bouncy house because it wasn't consumed with big kids! I had a great time! Note my Minnie Mouse doll given to me by Grandma Linda (mom's mom). I LOVE Mickie Mouse Clubhouse and since she gave me this doll it has not left my side. Therefore, my Halloween outfit was a no brainer...



Don't I make a cute Minnie Mouse?






We had a good time trick or treating even though it rained a little on us. We went to a neighborhood down the road where there were lots of other little boys and girls running around and I had a blast getting candy from every house...except I was too shy to say "Trick or Treat" while we were walking up to the houses and tended to say it when we were walking away.

Here are some random pics throughout the season...







Bubble baths are fun..but don't taste too good!



I can wear pigtails now!



This is me with my daddy, his 2 sisters, and his cousins.



This is my daddy's side of the family. My Nana wanted a picture for her Christmas cards.

My first Braves Game!

At the end of the season, Mom and Dad decided that it was time for me to experience my first Braves game! It was so much fun! I was fascinated by all of the excitement and music and bright lights! I would have stayed the whole game, but Mom and Dad made me leave early to get to bed.

Not bad seats for my first time...Mom and Dad made sure to point out to me that they didn't have such good seats at their first Braves game. I was so mesmerized I couldn't even look at the camera to take a picture.




They had some really big baseballs so I decided to pretend it was running over me. :)

My 2nd Birthday! (Finally, Mom!)

Yes, I turned 2 back in August and Mom is just getting around to updating my blog so enjoy some of my birthday pictures!

My Aunt Melinda made my cake to match my party outfit and it tasted as good as it looked!

Me with Mom and Dad and then sitting at the table with my cousin Tori.




This was one of my birthday presents...only one we got a picture of! A pretty red tricycle! Thanks Aunt Denise, Wende, Uncle Brian and Maggie!

My first "Big Girl" Haircut

Mommy and Daddy took me to "Pigtails & Crewcuts" to get my first big girl haircut. My Nana had given me a trim a couple of times, but this was my first experience in a salon!

Mommy thought the building was SO cute! :)

This is how I looked BEFORE she brought out the scissors....

...and this is how I looked the whole time she was cutting! Mommy had to stand right next to me and hold me up so that the lady could cut my hair! Thankfully it was over quickly!

Tada! All done and I am happy to ring the bell of my firetruck and pose for pictures!

She even put a pretty "bow" in my hair as I liked to call it..even the next day when I wanted to put it back in my hair.

After we were all done, I got to choose a prize from the treasure trunk! I only took one even though my face is saying "I wonder if I can get away with a handful?!"

Grandpa's Little Helper

Grandpa thinks I am a good little helper! I handed his his tools while he fixed our sink!

Screwdriver...check!
Wrench....check!
Pacifier...check!

Summer Adventures

We have had a busy summer! Here are a few pictures from some of our fun summer adventures! Enjoy!

We went to the Watermelon Festival in Cordele, GA
(mommy and daddy's hometown)
We watched a parade and then went to the arts and crafts festival!

Me in my cute watermelon dress! Had to be festive! :)

Our next adventure was to the Flint river with Grandpa and Meme. It was a fun,
relaxing week staying in a cabin on the river and doing a lot of new things!

This is me in my life jacket before we went canoeing!

Learning to play a new instrument...mommy and daddy said that we wouldn't pursue this, but maybe we'll try some other instruments when I get a little older!

We went to Callaway Gardens...I enjoyed feeding all of the fish!

Giving my cousin Tori some love!

We love our Grandpa!

Mommy and Daddy took me to the Varsity..it wasn't my first trip,
but they thought I looked cute in the hat!

We went to Pine Mountain with my Nana (daddy's mommy) and Aunt Kristen, Uncle Clint, and Aunt Laura. We had a great time at the Wild Animal Safari! We saw all kinds of cool animals up CLOSE and personal!

Zebra

Deer...there were a ton of deer and we got to feed them through the van windows...I didn't want to feed them for myself, but mommy enjoyed it!

We tried to feed the giraffe, but he didn't pay us any attention! He was very TALL!

This is the van ahead of us being bombarded by the animals wanting some food! Yes, our van looked like this one...it was recommended to us not to take our own vehicles for this reason!

Like I said..up CLOSE and personal! I didn't like it when the animals got so close at first, but I got used to it by the end. I still didn't want to feed them, though. I left that up to mommy!
