The One With September's Friday Photo Dump

Well, I'm a month late.  Better late than never, right?
September & October were hard & busy months (hence the lateness of this post).
Here are our favorite highlights of September.

Picking & canning yummy peaches.

First day of school.

Going to the fair & taking the annual picture by the ferris wheel.

Going to daddy's football games & enjoying the nice weather.

Playing monster cars.

Slobbery, wet baby kisses.  The.Best.Ever.

The One With August's Friday Photo Dump

Sheesh Louise!  Summer time always flies by too fast.  And when it's the end of August that means it's the beginning of something big at our house... football season!

My cute father in law got me this sign... because he loves me... and because he understands... :)

'Nuff said.

Paige & I like to work out to Just Dance videos from YouTube, I laughed pretty good throughout the work out to this song...

We decided to go for a scavenger hunt in the back yard.  We found things like grass, a bird, flower, etc.  Paige didn't want to forget her binoculars.  :)

We also celebrated a friend's birthday...

And we enjoyed some more big bows.  Why not? YOLO! (hahahahaha, I never thought I would ever say yolo.  I totally just did.)

We didn't have cable for a few weeks this month, but we still celebrated shark week.

Something epic happened at our house... we got Paige's hair in pigtail braids!  They weren't perfect, but they were still cute.  Oh and don't mind the dirty mirror.... :\

This is how excited I was about her hair.

We also participated in a back to school donation drive.  It was a lot of fun to do with Paige!  She's such a cutie patootie.

Lindsey tried out a new style.  Who needs bows?  Okay, bows are still a necessity at our house, but we thought we'd start this new trend.  You think it will catch on?

Poor cat.......

Oh you better believe this happened!  LOVE!

And some normal ones so she's not quite as embarrassed when she's older.

And I'm still lovin' on these thunder thighs.  :)  Yes, I said thunder thighs.  

We found these awesome princesses from the dollar store.  Thank you DollarTree.  You made this girls month.

This totally happened, too!  Love.  <3 nbsp="">

Paige donated some of her stuffed animals to the fire department.  I was so proud of her.

She loved the hat that the fireman gave her.

Oh yeah, and we played babies & princesses about a bazillion times this month.  How could I forget?

Last, but not least, Lindsey cut her first tooth!  Good luck taking a picture of that.  It's hard enough getting her to hold still so I can see it sans the camera.  She's been handling teething pretty well so far, let's hope she keeps it up.

Paige starts preschool again next month & she's really excited.  I'm excited for her.  

The One With July' Friday Photo Dump

Life finally started to slow down this month... and by slowing down I mean we actually had a few days where we didn't leave the house.  We had just about 2 straight months of doing something every day, and it was a blast, but relaxing a bit is nice, too.  :)  

We've been going to Horse Therapy still (we only have one more week left... frownie face!).  It's been really great for Paige.  Rick & my parents even got to go watch on the 24th since they didn't have to work.  Paige loved showing off for them.  :)  

Lindsey even got in on the action... well, she was riding on "woody" anyway :)  

(Woody is a modified version of a rocking horse)

Meet Dixie.  This is "Paige's horse" even though she doesn't ride her every time, this is her favorite one.  This is the horse they started her on & Paige talks the most about her.  Dixie does this funny thing with her tongue, and she just lets it hang out.  It's funnier in person, but I finally got a picture of it!
Don't worry, the mask is to protect her from flys and gnats, she can still see through it.

Meet Lindsey's future husband... :)  He's only a few months younger than her & is basically family (not blood, so it's not weird like that!).  I think they make a handsome couple, don't you?
Don't you just loooove her hand on his thigh?!

We went on lots of walks this month, despite the heat, but it sure was fun.

... and of course we watched fireworks lots this year!

Oh yeah, and don't forget our super duper cute photo shoot!  

Well, believe it or not, Rick suggested I start a real mommy blog.  (If you know him, that's a big surprise!)  It wasn't a half bad idea, either.  So... I did... You can check it out here & don't forget to follow me or leave me some comment lovin'.  :)

Lindsey had another pretty big month.  She's a speedy little devil who tries to stand on her own.  Thank heaven she's not ready for that yet!  She's cruising with furniture, though... watch out world!  

We finished off the month by going to Bear Lake... and HALLELUJAH!  No one got sick!!!!!  We had a streak going & I am so relieved it didn't continue.
