Hair Cut

So Savannah was in dire need of a hair cut and I took her in thinking we were just going to get a little trim.  However, she saw a picture of a woman on the wall with a short pixie hair style and REALLY wanted it.  We had to compromise…..she got shoulder length hair instead.

Hanging on by a Thread

Savannah has had her blanket ever since she was a tiny infant.  When she was very little, not even able to roll over yet, I was looking for a blanket to cover her at night that was 100% cotton.  "They" say that 100% cotton is best for infants because in case she wraps it around her head it's "breathable".  So I found a little blanket and covered her up one night with it.  The next morning when she woke and I was pulling her out of her crib she threw a fit because the blanket was left behind.  I gave her the blanket and she was instantly happy.  The rest I can say is history.  This poor blanket, it's nothing to look at anymore but she will not go to sleep at night without.  True love.

This blanket has been ripped and resown multiple times.  But now we're at the point that we can't even sew it because it's so thin.  We only allow her to sleep with it at night now because we're afraid the thing will just disintegrate into thin air at some point, it's like an antique so no playing with it during the day.  Out of all the trips we've been on and overnight stays I can't BELIEVE we haven't lost it yet.  

Pumpkin Patch

It seems like we've been to a ton of pumpkin patches these past few weeks and unfortunately I've only taken pictures at one of them.  The kids love this time of year…..so do I!   The cooler weather, the decorations….oh boy…..Christmas is just 49 days away!  :)

Good times with Emily and Christopher

Homeschool Group

We've joined a new homeschool meetup group and Benjamin and Savannah have been loving it!  I've been a bit concerned because he only has one boy in his class at school and his other friend goes to school full time (public school) so we don't get to see him as much since school has started.  So, we've branched out to make more friends!  I'm so glad we did....I even like the moms in the group.  :)

This is some of the group at the Heard Museum from a few days ago.  The weather has been beautiful and it turned out to be a really nice visit.

A Picture Says a Thousand Words

We've been spending a lot of time at the travel trailer down at Lake Whitney.  The kids have a blast and David and I actually get some down time.  This picture below is from our last day there.  Perfect!
