Fall Tradition

Some of you may remember my love for caramel apples from last year's post on my cinnamon-sugar, caramel apple. This year, I headed back to Kopper Kettle Candies and picked up another fabulous apple. I went for a chocolate drizzle, pecan-covered, caramel apple and it did not let me down. I still have some left for later. Edy Rose liked it, too. Moments after taking the first bite of that sour and sweet treat, she started doing flips in my belly.

AG liked it, too.

What a great tradition!

Red River Rivalry

Graham tells me we are in the middle of a BIG game between Texas and Oklahoma! We will see if all of the cheering helps!

Gabbies

Since it is getting cold, we decided to break out the warm pajamas. AG has always worn the footed p.j.'s in the winter, but this is the first year that she has realized how "cool" they are! She kept saying, "They have shoes, Bobby!"

Also, I haven't posted about AG's language development. She has really been talking a lot since she has been in "school". I love to hear her talk in complete sentences so clearly. It feels like we are really able to communicate. There are some funny quirks in her speech, too. For instance, ALL of her m's are pronounced as b's. So, I am still Bobby! In fact, we say to her: "Say, mmmmm Mommy." And she says, "bbbbbb Bobby." Her friends Mylea and Macy are Bylea and Bacy. Mickey Mouse--Bickey Bouse! You get the picture. Lately, we have noticed that she pronounces j's as hard g's. Today, when we told her that she was going to wear some new jammies, she screamed out, "GABBIES!" At least she is consistent!

Making Memories

My Gran and Papaw were traveling home from Branson and decided to stop in and visit with us. What a treat! We don't get to see them enough and I was so excited for them to spend some time with AG. She has grown so much since the last time they saw her.

AG insisted on taking a picture with Ariel and Snow White.

We thought that she looked like Little Bo Peep holding Papaw's cane.

We love you so much Gran and Papaw!

Monday, Monday

Ava Grace had a case of  "The Mondays"

I know it has something to do with being a two year old, but it can be so tiring for me. I just want to come home and love on my girl...I really don't want to be a disciplinarian. That's just part of being a mom.

I thought this was a funny picture because it sums up our afternoon. Such a cute little girl, but so many tears!

And then...happy again.

Adorable pic of the people I love

We were so excited to go eat chili at our neighbors...we needed to get out of the house!

Headed home on a brisk Fall night.

Time for bed!
Am I ready for Tuesday?
