Got Pumpkins???

It is that time of year again.  We made our annuat trek to the pumpkin farm.  This year was extra super fabulous.  You see I had two willing models.  It was super!!!!!  Glory days, Wayne and I weren't sniping at each other trying to stand on our head to get them both looking at the camera at the same time.  We got to the pumpkin farm when it opened, then went on a picnic.  After the picnic, we drove by the pumpkin farm and it was crazy town.  There were people everywhere.  It was like someone kicked an anthill.

 

My future Olympian

I have been going to a boot camp class three nights a week.  On one of those nights I take Ellison with me to stay in the nursery.  Little Mama gets to watch a friends baby while we are in class, so she thinks she is hot stuff.  The other night before class we were waiting for the nursery worker to get there and I took Ellison in the workout room.  Someone asked her if she wanted to hang from the rings and um well, she is Ellison so of course she did.  The thing is she didn't just hang from the rings, she pulled her weight up, head above the circles at least 5 times.  Girl is crazy strong, which I would agree with after the melt down screaming fit she threw on my last week.  I could not contain her.  It was like wrestling a slick pig.  In the end I am calling it a draw, a heavily weighted in her favor kind of draw, but a draw nonetheless.

 

 

Working the camera

Work it girl.  She is becoming quite the poser this one.  Love it.  L.O.V.E.  It was picture day at school and I got an on yeah .  She was loving getting all dolled up and getting her hair done.  "Ellison put your hands on your hips."  Her, "like 'dis?"  Yes baby doll just like that!!!

 

 

CUTE and COMFY and CHEAP

On a recent shopping excursion, I found a new brand for the girls.  It is affordable and all cotton, which equals cheap cute comfort.  A WIN for my wallet and meets at least Hadley's one requirement.  Ellison doesn't have requirements yet, but I'm sure they are coming.  Ellison is going to be my little shopping buddy.  I was recently shopping on-line for her a pair of shoes.  She was on the couch, I didn't think she was paying attention.  I was wrong.  All of a sudden, it was like my hip was a magnetic, she was at my side asking to be picked up and wanting to look.  She picked herself out a pair of fabulous hot pink moccasins.  Of course, I had to oblige and buy them for her.  I can not wait to see the sassy little red head in what she now calls, "her favorite boots ever".

 

Hiking the Mountain

Hadley had a Reach field trip a couple of weeks ago.  I have gone on all her field trips, but I thought I might sit this one out.  It was at Fort Mountain and there was going to be hiking involved.  I casually asked her while she was preoccupied on the computer if she wanted me to go, she did so my plan didn't really work.  So up the mountain we went and hike we did.  Yes we did.  it was a beautiful Fall morning a wee bit chilly, but beautiful nonetheless.  After our hike around the lake, we stopped for a picnic and then the kiddos went back to school.  I  know there will come a day, when she doesn't want me around, so I wasn't really upset my plan didn't work.
