november extras

Gosh - is November already over?

Busy month...

Here are a few extras.

Prior to her own big birthday bash, Peach was invited to her first birthday party.  A second cousin on Hubby's side.

Part of the goody bag at the end was this sweet slinky.

She calls it her "bouncer", her "jumper", her "stinky"...anything but slinky.  But she's had a lot of fun with this little guy.

The classics never die, I guess.

These have been a favorite treat this month.

They were on sale at the grocery store and Peach was mesmerized by them, so I thought, "What harm would it do to have a few peanuts in the house?"

Well, the mess on, under and around Peach each time she dives in is the answer to that question.

The best part is when she asks for them, forgetting the all-important "t" sound at the end.

"Momma, can I have some pee-nuhs, please."

Let's hope she masters the "t" before she goes saying this word to anyone other than close family and friends.

Hubby went to snuggle Peach on the couch while she was watching a Christmas movie that she snagged at the library.

When he nuzzled in, he got a wad of gum in his hair...ooops!

Good thing he was in need of a trim!

Tulip's new favorite:  Baby Mum Mums

I have been trying for WEEKS to get a pic of Tulip's smile...with the teeth showing.  She's a smiler, that's for sure, but that bottom lip always hides those sweet little chompers.  So, I resorted to asking Hubby for some help in capturing those first two teeth.

lovey moments

both girls woke up with the sniffles on thanksgiving...grrr

but the extra snuggles on momma's lap were how we took lemons and made lemonade :)

hubby and i...still addicted to our morning cup o' joe

the only difference is that this time of year, it looks a little more festive

remember the neighbors?  well, that sweet little activity has turned into something much larger these days

hubby and i gave her some birthday gifts that have allowed her to turn the 2-house neighbor idea into

"cover the entire living room floor with a town"

and of course, the neighbors now have a tree

any day now...tulip will be crawling

"come on...you can do it!"

peach got a manger for her birthday...

she's been throwing a party for baby Jesus every day since

complete with birthday cake and songs

reading never gets old in this house...here are some of our winter favorites

this one...she melts me

peach has been hot on the trail of lady bugs...again

i think they are gross

but she doesn't seem to mind the stink

and is enamored by their pretty little spots

and there you have it...the little

moments that i captured while we were

stirrin' up some love at our house

this november.
