Fall Fun!

So much to write so little time. My last post was Oct 4 and so much has happened since then. I wish I were better about blogging but part of my lack of blogging is the anxiety that I have about the new computer and photo organization! Lame excuse, I know!
Oct 10 - 11 Todd, Connie, Corbett and Keegan came to visit and we went to the neighborhood yard sales - fun but uneventful!

Oct 17 - 18 McCall started cereal!!

Oct 24-25 GranMollie came to visit and we met Chris' mom, sister and niece! I could write all day about this! We had such a great time, it was a long over due visit and everyone had a great time. Going forward we are all looking forward to keeping in touch!!

Family in Paducah!
Emerson just loves her cousin Morgan whos is just a few weeks younger than Miss Emerson! She is so excited b/c she has 2 "cousin Morgans"!






Photo Session with GranMollie

Baby Call it be Ok, mommy be right back in 2 minutes!

Yes, that is what Emerson told McCall earlier tonight when I stepped away for a quick second. Chris said right before I walked away I said, "McCall I will be right back in 2 minutes"! Now that we know she is a sponge I guess it is time to clean up our vocabulary!! No more "bickering", with each other, in front of her. Other wise God only knows what she will be saying at school! Ha-ha!!

Today started off VERY lucky! I went to Panera to grab some bagels - I knew they were going to be free b/c I had a frequent user card and I had fulfilled the requirements for a free bagel pack. While they were slicing the bagels I ran to Kroger (I NEVER go there) for some Oj and milk to avoid another stop! I noticed that Huggies were on sale so I grabbed 2 packs, 2 Colgate toothpastes that were also on sale and my intended purchase - oj and milk! The total came to $23 and some change. I noticed that the Huggies did not reflect the sale price so I brought it to the attention of the clerk, I wanted to save $1.56. He apologized and explained that it is Kroger policy to give the item free if the correct price is not reflected yet I still asked for my coupons back and GOT them. WOO HOO! Through all the confusion the grand total was now $2.13, so I asked about that and explained that they coupons (2 $3.00 off) had not been voided, he said do not worry! I think at this point he just wanted me out of the store. I was on cloud nine! Do not forget, I also got 13 bagels and 2 cream cheese free.

H1N1?

Potty Training

This morning we started potty training, or so we thought! We lasted for 1 hour and in that hour we had 2 accidents; a #1 and #2. I think Emerson needs more time and we need more patience!

I am hoping to get a lot of support from her teachers at school!

Falling into Fall!

Today has been AWESOME! Emerson & I started our day by going for a walk, the weather was great, and the temperature was perfect! Later we went to a birthday party - what a blast! It was at one of those jumping, inflatable places which are so much fun!! We both got a workout!! The whole family took a great nap, then we went to a corn maze, pumpkin farm, which was so much fun!! Lastly, which was Daddy's favorite part, we went to Olive Garden and enjoyed some "autehntic italian cuisine"!!

I have heard that babies go through growth spurts at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months and I BELIEVE it! McCall gulped a 4 ounce bottle at 7pm then another at 9pm!! This is the same baby (up until this week) that would only eat 2-3 ounces every 3 hours! Go Baby call, Go!!
