Back in October

This post is random and all over the place...these pictures are from the beginning of October.

In case you haven't heard, Kensley loves babies (or "bees" as Kensley says...hey, that's better than what she used to call babies..."butts").  I am lucky enough to watch this little cutie once a month while her mom volunteers at big sister's school...and she kindly returns the favor and keeps Kens for me so I can pester Addyson at school.
 Elefun...this game is cute, but why the lack of "butterflies"?  Hasbro, we need more butterflies!

"Owsigh".  A word that I hear a thousand times a day.  This little bug would stay outside 24/7 if I could accommodate her.




 I can't remember if I posted this picture on the blog, but I couldn't resist.   It cracks me up every time that I see it.  Come on, a baby with a mustache!  It's funny.  She drew one side herself and I couldn't stand not filling in the other.

We spent the holiday enjoying family in Alabama.  What a blessing to have all of our family to spend time with and watch my kiddos run around and play as they watch as their great grandparents watch.  Sometimes going home is difficult.  It's always difficult coming back to Georgia and reminding myself of how far away we live from the people that I love.  I wish that we could spend more time there...spur of the moment, middle of the day visits to check in on family.  How nice that would be.  I am thankful for each of you.

Tracy,
We had a wonderful time too & miss y'all very much! I do wish you & your family lived closer but at least you are in driving distance. I so enjoyed playing with the girls & watching them open their Christmas gifts.
Hope y'all have a wonderful week.
Love & miss you bunches!
Mom

Love all the pictures :) It was so great to see you and your family. I know it's hard living away from here but we are glad you were able to make it for Thanksgiving!

We are SO thankful for y'all too, and also wish y'all lived closer! My friend Wynelle's son lives in Sweden...so at least we can drive and see y'all in 3 and 1/2 hours, so I must be thankful for that. It made Thanksgiving so special for y'all to come and visit us.
Love y'all!
