Tatum...

I was very excited to take some infant photos of my newest nephew Tatum. He was not very interested in sleeping at first, which is what I had in mind, but after a little coaxing from his mommy, he finally crashed for a bit. What a cute little guy!

I was greatful for the practice, and hope to keep getting better and maybe someday make money doing senior, baby, family, etc. pictures.

We finally started getting our laminate flooring in today! It is far from finished...but we are making progress, so that makes me happy.

With all the chaos in our house we are waiting to get our tree and decorations up, and Marlee keeps asking when it will be. I wish I knew, but I have enjoyed looking at all the pictures people have been posting of theirs. It makes it seem a little more real!

Our neighbors have a big inflatable Grinch decoration, and Marlee asked today why there was a giant frog outside their house. We told her it was the Grinch, and then later she was pretty sure it was a pinata and was hoping for some candy. Needless to say, she's pretty disappointed with everything about it. To top it off she told me to hurry inside tonight so it wouldn't get me.

Oh, and Owen has some food stuck in his tooth in this picture... but I liked it anyway.

Dewey...

The last time I saw Dewey I just couldn't help myself. I had to take some pictures of him. He is five months old already and the time is just flying by! He has the most handsome big, blue eyes, and such a cute little smile! Makes you just want to kiss him!! Anyway, I coudn't help putting my favorite pictures of him on here!

I'm getting so excited for Thanksgiving! It is a blessing to be in such an amazing family and to get to see so many of them this week! Have a very HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone!

Here comes the Broom

Marlee was really wanting to play wedding, and she kept asking Owen to be the "broom". He wasn't really into it (hmm...I wonder why) so I bribed him with candy and he finally walked down the hallway with her.
The beautiful bride! She ended up being pretty excited about the candy too! She told me she wants to hurry and get married so she can have babies. When I told her some people don't get married or have babies, she was pretty shocked. "Yeah, but they need babies." she said. She's right I guess...we don't know what we'd do without the two of them!

Rob and I painted yesterday evening, and this was the first time we used a sprayer. What a difference from rolling! We were both so surprised how fast it went, and were so thankful that his grandpa let us borrow it!

These geese are kind of hard to see, but I was so impressed by how many there were that after I dropped Marlee off for school, I drove back by this field and tried to get a picture of them. I couldn't even get all of them in the picture because they were everywhere!

Remodeling...

What we have been doing this weekend is ripping out our floors and putting in new ones. Satisfying yes, but also messy and hard to have any kind of routine when all our furniture is piled in the dining room. But the end product will be well worth it! Yay new floors!

Today is starting off pretty awful. The kids are getting sick again, it's grey outside, my house is a mess, and I just don't feel like doing anything. But I like these pictures. That's about it.
