"Role"-y Poley Girl and Hanley Visit

We had a great visit with Karen and John last week (Leah was definitely loving the extra attention...and I appreciated the extra help!).  Poor Eric had a project at work that kept him pretty busy and unable to take leave. 

Aine had two milestones this week: she rolled over from her tummy to her back and then a week later rolled from her back to tummy! Yeah Aine! She's starting to scoot around a little too :)

Here she is scooting out of her car seat ;)


Kisses for Daddy...

She sucks her thumb to fall asleep...it's too cute!
The weather was great, and there was just enough chill in the air to enjoy a fire.

Happy Halloween!!!

Hi all! Happy halloween! We had a great week and went to 2 block parties. Friday night we went to our neighbor's church out in Sandestin. They had all sorts of food and entertainment, but Leah spent most (all) of her time on the bounce castles. Eric and I had some funnel cake...it was good but greasy! Then Saturday afternoon we went to Tracy's church for their party.  Leah LOVED dressing up like a princess and waving her wand around. I made her wand out of foil...let's just say it was one-of-a-kind...but she didn't know any better :) She loved being a princess so much that she insisted on wearing the outfit to church today! 

We're really enjoying the cooler weather and are looking forward to having a fire out back sometime this week. We're also excited that Karen and John are coming for a visit, and I already have my list of projects to get through (since I won't have to entertain a certain 2 yr old). Yippee! We hope everyone had a safe holiday. God bless!

Leah's wand (proof that I am soooo left brained)...
Eric blowing the pine needles off the roof. They provide quite a bit of fuel for our fire...
I had to get a shot of this stroller decked out like a pirate ship...so creative!
An hour of gymnastics is more than enough to exhaust Aine...
For some reason Leah chose to go upstairs, grab her Christmas hat from last year and then make funny faces for me :)

Seriously...this cat is so spoiled.




I love the expression...
She was busy "poofing" with her wand...
