This Morning

"I've done it again.  I'm so silly - I cannot keep my pajamas on at night.  I like to wiggle and squirm and pull at least one arm out of my shirt.  What will I do next?"

SwingKid

New Swing!  You should see this girl go...  You can find her swinging almost every afternoon enjoying the nice Fall weather.  She has fallen asleep several times but I try not to take it personally.  Thanks Nana!

War Eagle!

Addie's first Auburn ballgame - YEAH!  She was able to share her first game with her Nana who also experienced her first Auburn game as well.  This game was in Starkville, MS, against Mississippi State, and Addie had a great time!  We left home around lunch time and met up with some friends there to tailgate.  Addie made friends with everyone at the game and provided some entertainment for the crowd since there was not much to watch during the baseball - I mean, football game.  Auburn won 3-2, and we made it home around 11:15 pm.  Please notice Addie's orange bow - custom made and attached with toothpaste.  I fought this idea but I have to admit it was pretty cute.

VANDALIZED

We were utterly vandalized in every sense of the word.  We are loners as Auburn fans in the great state of Mississippi and that statement is true in our church as well.  Not only did our vehicle get trashed in the church parking lot - the security guard claims he didn't see a thing - our child, our own flesh and blood while minding her own business in the church nursery where we feel she is watched out for and loved on - she was dressed in a ridiculous outfit and persuaded to play with a mindless doll dressed in the same fashion.  This all goes hand-in-hand with the garbage we found waving outside our very own home.  These pictures were delivered to us by true scandals.  As a friend of mine said, "It's always the quiet ones you have to watch out for."  Thanks for the fun Robin and Heidi - we want our AU flag back now. 

New Pajamas

Attention Attention!  Addie's Nana (my mom) came to visit us today, and she brought Addie her first pair of pajamas.  You know they don't make any that we have found yet for her size.  She looks so sweet and comfy, but she hasn't quite figured out what those things on her arms are...  Winter might be tough!

Time with Carla

Let me introduce you to our MS babysitter - CARLA!!  On Saturday, Brad and I were able to go to the MS State game with some good friends, and Carla offered to keep Addie all day long.  We were so grateful to Carla and to the rest of the family for loving on Addie.  During Addie's stay, she was in the floor playing with some toys and all of a sudden stopped playing and crawled over to her basket (I had packed all her belongings in a laundry basket).  Addie turned the basket over, went through everything in it and pulled out a spoon and then a jar of baby food.  Carla laughed and told her it was not time to eat then she glanced at the tentative schedule I had made for her and sure enough it was the exact time to eat.  Some mock the schedule, but Addie and I like it!  

Thank you LARLA!  We love you and the family!  

Weekend Extravaganza

We also had surprise guests for the Labor Day weekend!  The LeRoy's came on Saturday and spent some time with us in MS.  We had a great time!  Addie loved seeing family and having constant hugs and kisses and entertainment.  Thanks for coming - we had a great time and miss you already!

This weekend began with Addie's first high school football game 

at Pillow Academy, the private school here in Greenwood.

  She was a good sport even though it was very hot that night.  "Miss" Amy and "Miss" Dawn held her almost the entire game - we didn't realize babysitters would be provided.  Addie enjoyed clapping at everything, especially the cheerleaders.  Pillow won the game - 54 - 0 - Congrats Coach Fair!
