YUMMM!




Tonight, we fed Chase cereal with a spoon for the first time. As you can see, Presley thought it was just like feeding one of her baby dolls and Chase really didn't like it!

Play Dates


Here's a picture of the "big kids" from a playdate we had with some of our friends. We all got together a couple of weeks ago and had the best time...the big kids played outside, the babies slept, and the moms got to visit! -this week was a totally different story. I guess a day like this is never predictable when you have 5 moms and 10 kids. Here's Logan, Josie, Ella, Brooks, & Pres

Fall Pictures




My friend Mary Alice volunteed to take some fall pictures of our family and the kids. Here are two of my favorites. Thanks Mare! We love them!

Milestones


The kids are just growing and changing so fast. Chase is smiling, laughing, and loves to hear himself talk. He also is getting use to his Bumbo seat. Presley has recently learned to petal her tricycle and her hair is long enough for pigtails.

Big Girl Panties!



Using the "Big Girl Potty" has been a long time comin for us! We've had a potty for over a year now, cute panties, and a sticker chart for months. Last week, Presley made up her mind (with a little encouragment) that she was going to start using the potty and wearing panties. She even wanted to wear them to bed the first night and has worn them all week with only one accident! We are so proud! Just to show you her little personality, after the 1st two times of getting stickers for her chart, she said "Momma, I don't want any more stickers!" So, that was that.

4 months old



Our little Chase-man-doodle turned 4 months old on Friday! It's so hard to believe how fast time flies. When we found out we were going to have another baby, I remember asking "How can we love someone else as much as we love Presley?"...it's so easy! We've been so blessed with two perfect kids! God is so good! Chase has really beefed up in the past two months - guess that's what cereal in every bottle will do for ya! (the doc. recommended it for his reflux) Anyway, he was in the 80th percentile in head, weight, and height. Dr. Rhodes suggested that we start feeding him the cereal with a spoon, so that he can get on veggies asap, because they have less calories. :) We love our little chunky monkey!

Two Peas in a Pod



Love these kiddos!

Just the 2 of us


Don't they look like little angels...but watch out! Presley's little devil will decide to do something that's going to make Chase cry & get her in trouble...hit him on the stomach, take his toys away, put her hair in his eyes, attempt to jump over him, put her finger in his mouth, hug him and not let go, etc...

Crusin


A picture of the future (hopefully not on Military!)...except that Presley will never have a jeep!

lil patch of pumpkins



We took all the cousins to the pumpkin patch today. It's always an excited trip and getting even more fun since we've added to the family. I finally got a decent shot of Presley, Chase looks a little grumpy, and I think the group shot is hilarious! That's Carter, Chase, Emma, Jackson, Brody & Presley.

Pajama Time!

Sandra Boynton's
"Pajama Time!" is one of our favorite bedtime stories. All of her books are super cute! Here's a pic of our two little bundles.

3 little scarecrows



These are Presley's little friends that we pulled out of the attic today.

Roll'n with the Homies


On October 1st, Chase learned how to roll over! This was a shot of his after pose. He's growing so fast! Soon he'll be chasing his friends around.

Pumpkin Pics

Yesterday, we went to buy pumpkins with Nana. It took forever for Presley to pick the perfect one to bring home.
